Do Your Alfalfy Buying Early
Price May Climb-"Some alfalfa or
every Minnesota farm" is suggested
as a slogan for county extension for.
ces by Ralph F. Grim of University
Farm, extension specialist in farm
crops and farm management. Mr.
Grim has prepared a list of Mime.
sofa growers who have alfalfa seed
of fine quality for sale at reasonable
prices. This list can be obtained OF
him or from your county agent. Farm
crops men of the university advise
purchases of alfalfa seed as soon as
possible, as prices are likely to be
higher in the spring. Grimm alfalfa
seed is the best, they say, because il
has been tested under the severest
Minnesota conditions. Mr.. Grim ad-
vises buyers to insist on getting seed
that is certified or can be.

Testing Associations Increased by
Eleveyl-Eleven new cow testing as

Early last spring H. G. Zavoral,
live stock specialist at the University
Farm, mailed QUESTIONABLE to all
county agents of the state which was
placed in the hands of several hog
breeders in an effort to secure lnfor-
nation on loss of pigs at narrowing
time and during the earlier period OF
their development. The object of this
QUESTIONABLE was to determine the
cause and amount of loss in pigs, and
study the system of handling on diff
ferent farms.
In making up a summary Of the
uuestionnaires returned to Mr.. Zayo-
raj he found the loss of 80 IL per cent
of the pigs narrowed before weaving
time on 337 Minnesota farms last
spring. The great loss was shown un-
der the headings: Pigs Farrowed
Dead. Farrowed Weak, Scours. Chill
ed. and Injured. Many of these causes
may traced to improper feeding
of the brood sow, improper shelter
and general neglect.
Last winter the general tendency
was to rely too much on corn as
feed for brood sows. Corn is the best
ration for fattening, but breeders gen
orally agree that it is not the best
for muscle and bone building. Where
too high percentage of corn is fed
to brood sows, the pigs do not have
the strength and development which
they should possess when farrowed.
The proper feeding and care OF
brood sows should be emphasized at
this time of the year. This will result
in strong, vigorous pigs that Will nave
resistance to disease as we'll as re-
verse weather conditions when far
rowed. Provide proper food rations
for brood sows and then give plenty
of exercise and clean quarters. The
following are suggestive rations for
brood sows and gifts:
Ration No.
Made up on One-ilalf corn, one-haI
oats, 8 per cent tankage.
Ration No.
One-third corn, one-third oats, with
short or middlings one-third, and skim
milk.
Ration No. 3
One-half. barley, one-half oats, tank
age 8 per cent.
he dIIlOuuC VI lOOo oSPSAhNao F~NN
two pounds Of grain to one hundred
pounds of live weight is sufficient.
Gifts require more feed than mature
sows. A good quality of alfalfa or
clover hay and mineral mixture should
be settled. A mineral mixture one
third limestone, one-third salt, one
third bone meal, with one-half ounce
of potassium iodide for a hundred
pound mixture has given very salts
factory results.

which they had answered the ques-
lions about the flags, In the first part
the sermon.
Holds Up Flags
While the flags were being shown
and the names of the countries asked,
every three colored flag was hailed
as French, and some times Mr. Sunday
had little difficulty in getting the
youngsters to give the right country.
oh, you go home" he would say
when some wild guess was made, and
the children would laugh and squirm
on their seats.
There were nearly 500 children at
the tabernacle, occupying the seats
directly in front of the stage. On a
call for those that would pledge them
selves to live for Christ, the children
all put up their hands, and 1858 signed
cards, pledging themselves to that
end. The adult attendance was 500.
Greets Children
After the service, Mr.. Sunday greet
ed several hundred of the children on
the platform, and shook hands with
them.

up?" What is it," asked Sunday.

CUSTOMS, THOUGHT OF TIMES MIRRORED ( ID
THROUGH STORIES, ADS IN NEWSPAPERS

newspapers are mirrors of the day
However unconsciously the reporter
or editor may write, the local color
that marks the difference between
generations and communities will
creep in to be preserved more accu.
rately than had the intention premedi
tated.
National stories, great catastrophes
ana events are news" and occupy the
greatest space in the papers, but It is
the commonplace in the advertise,
ments or in the local notes that tells
OF the real difference between nova
DAY" and those, that were.
Thus an advertisement in the May
70, 1925, number of the Western EN-
porlum published at Centerville by
John Scott, to the effect that the ed
ltor was ready to fill out deeds, leases,
releases. bonds, ETC., upon forms which
ne then had at the office, tells the
story of the scarcity of lawyers and of
the rough and ready way in which le-
gal matters, which are now carried
through so carefully, were attended to.
More than that, it is an indication of
the variety of accomplishments that
the early editor had to call his before
ne could make living at his precari-
Gus job.
Underground Railroad.
Inc presence of the underground
railroad and its many branches is
suggested in the advertisement that
appeared in the Lawrenceburg Indiana
Palladium for May Is, 1925. A $50 re-
ward was offered for the return on
one Jim, runaway negro, belonging
to John Shackelsord, ST., of Elizabeth
town, Ky. He is described as about
35, badly marked from smallpox. and
as having slight difficulty with his
speech. When last seen the "ad"
stated he was in the company of
George Smith, a black man who lived
on the waters of the White river.
In Richmond and Centerville papers
OF the same time, numbers of Took
Up advertisements were found, in
which horses which had been found
on the public highways were kept for
possible owners. The horses were
valued at from SIS to $3.50 in com
parison with the $50 reward which had
been offered for the negro.

Fleming is description of the condi-
ton of the country near Richmond. 1t
