RABBITS FIND
COYOTE HUNT
DISASTROUS:

The wolf hunt on military grounds
last Sunday afternoon in which seve-
raj hundred men took part did not
turn out in the way that it was ex-
pected and hoped it would. The drive
was started in the regular way and
to man up in the tree looked very
much as though wolves by the dozens
would be coming out of the brush at
Pelican point where the wolf hounds
were kept in readiness to do the ex-
ecution work, but as the afternoon
wore on the men in the woods came
closer the number of people at the
point where the wolves were supposed
to come out increased until there was
a larger crowd waiting for the var
mints than there was in the woods.
Wolves usually go were they con-
slider there is the least danger, and
by sizing up the crowds anyone with
brains would consider the crowd in
waiting to be the most dangerous.
The wolves therefore did not come out
of the woods to be killed, and there
were none executed in the woods that
anyone knows of. Rabbits, however,
were very much in evidence both in
and out of the woods, and these were
killed by the hundreds.
The hunt proved a failure from a
killing standpoint for several reasons,
First the boys doing the driving did
not keep an even line in going ahead
some of them getting to the end OF
the woods fully half an hour ahead OF
the others. The broken lines gave
the coyotes ample opportunity Of
sneaking through. For a time it look
ed as though the entire woods were
dotted with men, and there was nc
line of drive whatever. An intelligent
wolf would hardly know in what dir.
dction he was being driven. But
even if the line would have been KEEP
intact it would have been next to i'm
possible to drive the animals out o:
the woods with a hundred or NOR,
people in the open with guns and dog!
waiting for them to come out.
| The first to come out of the wood
as result of the drive were the rab
bits, and these were shot by tn,
people waiting as fast as they cam
to the edge of the brush. The bunnie
| came out just often enough to caus

Exchange Your 1918 War Saving Ger
tificates for the New Treasury saving
Certificates
ut is hoped that every person who
can do so will exchange War Saving
Stamps, soon to fall due, for Treasury
savings certificates, "said Postmaster
Fred A. Scott. ''The large amount of
money invested and the great num-
ber of persons who purchased war
saving stamps showed that the peo-
pie of this country could save money
when the necessity arose. Now, if
they will take the money they saved
when they bought stamps to aid the
government in the prosecution of the
war and buy Treasury savings certi-
ficates, they will demonstrate that the
, thrift lessons Of the war have not been
| without effect. The holders Of war saw
ings stamps have been investments of
about $20.50 grow to $25 in five years,
and larger amounts in the same prop
ortion. They can see the same thing
repeated if they reinvest in Treasury
savings certificates. Interest accumu-
lates at the rate of per cent each
year compounded semi-annually.T These
savings certificates are exempt from
the normal Federal income tax, and
from all State and local taxation Tex
cept estate and inheritance taxes),
and may be held to the amount of
$4,000, maturity value, for each issue,
by every member of the family. They
are backed by the credit of the United
States Government, and afford an
easy and sure method of saving"

where the wolves were expected to
come out. The shooting at this point
was just about as loud and as fire.
quent as the shooting done by the
drivers.
/. Several of the drivers insist that
they saw wolves while walking thru
the woods, and all admit that the
animals could have easily crouched
down unnoticed while the men pas
sed. Our experience with coyotes is
that they will willingly crouch,
dodge, run, or even fight if necessary
rather than face the bunch that was
waiting for them at the south end
of the woods.
A drive of this kind is interesting,
! and we would like to see it repeated.
Such errors as were made Sunday
can easily be overcome. and we are
! sure that some wolves can be killed
| if the hunt is properly conducted. We
would suggest that horn or some
other loud sounding instrument be
used to let the drivers know where
/ the line is so it can be kept together,
! and that committee with clubs be ap-
/; pointed to stay at the point where
the animals are expected to come out
to see to it that no gun is fired there
until after the drive is over. People
desiring to stay at this point to see
/. the animals come out and be killed by
the dogs should remain in hiding
and make as little noise as possible.

RASMUSSEN|S
Hoe BREEDER

I. M. Rasmussen, prominent farmer
Of near Doyon, and president of the
Ramsey County Farm Bureau, was
in the city several days last week
assisting: in putting on the sale and
exchange day here sponsored by the
bureau, and during his stay here
The World enjoyed a very pleasant
visit with him. We found that Mr..
Rasmussen's speciality on his farm
was raising Duroc Jersey hogs, and
that he was just as much interested
in his porkers as Ed. Gilbertson was
in his Holsteins, and Howard 4Maher
was in his Guernseys. Mr.. Rasmus-
sens herd of hogs is headed by a boar
coming from the Marsden & Son farm
of near Hendrum, Mimi, which hogs
are we'll known among the breeders
all over the northwest. At the pre-
sent time Mr.. r. has about 1876 red
hogs on his place, and during the fell
SO far he has already sold about 40.
He usually raises about the same
number each year, narrowing. them in
April and May and marketing them
the fore part of December, when
they weigh from 200 to $50 pounds
each. His herd boar is a year old
and weighs 500 pounds. Hogs of this
breed when three and four years old
often get to weigh as much as 100
pounds.
Before getting the Duroc Jerseys
Mr.. Rasmussen raised the Poland
Chinas, but found that the Durocs
were much harder, would grow faster
and grow larger, so changed breeds
three years ago, and says that he has
never regretted the change. During
the summer he pastures his porkers
ON sweet clover and alfalfa, and uses
barley in the fall to fatten them on
He told us that he tried raising corr
. few years ago, but didn't have any
luck with it so quit, but that since
he quit he has noticed that everyone
else has been raising the best of corn
and he intends to try it again next
spring.

year.. the. largest. acreage he ever put
in, but dug only 40 acres, leaving
the rest in the ground to freeze. The
hogs and tile cattle dug quite a num-
Der of them until the ground froze
up. He usually puts in 60 acres
each year, and the only reason he put
in 50 much this season was that he
had the seed last spring, and could
not dispose of it to any advantage
anywere.
Mr.. Rasmussen is not as much in
terested in cattle as many of his neigh
bors are but admits that. there is
almost as much money in te dairy
business as there is in raising hogs.
The only thing he has against the
dairy cattle is the large amount Of
work required to properly look after
the products, and it is next to i'm
possible to hire a man who is willing
to put in days work in the field and
then milk a dozen or more cows. Un-
less farmer is willing to do this work
himself, Mr.. Rasmussen says, he had
better leave the cows alone, as it
doesn't pay to depend on hired help.
If farmer as 20 or more mich cows
he can afford to buy milking mach
inc, and other modern equipment,
which greatly reduces the labor con-
nected with dairy farming. It seems
that about the first. question man
asks when approached by farmer
looking for help is whether or not
there are cows to milk The man with
out cows can always get what help he
wants before the other fellow can.
