Abundant moisture has fallen in most districts, promising good ger
mination of beet sowings if planted correctly in seed beds properly
fitted.
The delay occaSoned in farm work by the recent SHOWS may cause
undue haste O. the part of Sol growers. If this results in poor pre-
paraton of the seed bed for beets the benefits of the moisture may thus
be more than offset.
Care should be taken not to handle the soil while it is too wet. This
is particularly true of heavy soils.
Do not sacrifice the quality of your seed bed to plant early. Early
planting of beets is desirable and generally profitable but should not be
an excuse for poorly prepared seed beds.
Soil worked too wet may turn coddy and lose its surface moisture,
resulting in poor termination of seed.
Conservation o. the moisture that has fallen recently will be an i'm
portant part of spring farm work. AS soon a IS the soil be worked
to best advantage, narrowing II a light disking to roughen the surface
will tend to prevent crusing, drying and soil blowing.
While work in the field is not possible, the soil fitting machinery
should be put in shape and all preparations made so that unnecessary
delays a be avoided later.

Moisture Ample For Beet Seed Beds
If Soil Is Properly Handled

spiritual outlook on life. Any belief
that exists in the mind writes itself
in the eyes-in fact. on the entire

show the inner spirit. They can
create the life of the human soul.
The stories. I think. will change:
even now they are, changing. Audi
ences today are more. analytical
Therefore, they seek logic back of the
emotions. The trend of the new plays

normal human beings as they are,
whose actions spring from their char
acters. rather than from the old idea
of serving the plot.

Washington will have its first
glimpse of the widely famous western
rodeo Wednesday. 1t will be staged
In the mammoth stadium erected on
the Union station plaza, and twenty
one champion cowboy and cowgirl
performers will present series of
spectacular feats that have enthralled
even the rugged citizens of the far
west since civilization first set it's
foot upon the virgin prairies, and
which have even won fame and
thrilled vast audiences in Europe and
in. South America. They have more
and greater thrills than the closest
finish in the American Derby and are
unsurpa ssed by any other line of
athletic sport.
Burlesque and clown stunts have been
with new audiences, and these will
be provided also to calm the nerves
and prepare the spectator between
big thrills.
The rodeo feats are not akin to the
bull fight. There is no killing of
animals, but into the vast arena are
driven wild outlaw horses, the widest
and fiercest Texas and Brahma steers
and bucking bunaloes. when, instead
of the matador, the picador and the
bandero. fearless cowboys and cow
girls will meet and tame them by
methods purely their own. The dan
ger is all for the man or woman on

What the Shrine R0deo Is.

ssrTHE, portrayal of an interesting
i period in American history and
a faithful picture of a vanishing race,
in few words describes the Shrine
rodeo and the Indian exposition which
is to be staged on and near the Billy
Sunday lot, on the Union station
plaza from May 80 to June 9, both
inclusive"
Victor J. Evans, who is behind it
all, thus explains the purpose of the
big exhibition for which he, perhaps,
more than any one else, Is respon-
sible. OF course. there is the purpose
to assist in the entertainment of
with the Shrine visitors and Incl
dental1y to provide the means for
the mammoth general entertainment
which Washington has provided in
many ways for them. But to Mr.. Evans
there is a higher and a much more
interesting object that has prompted
the outlay of thousands of dollars and
the gigantic work involved In gather
ing the material for this entertain
ment.
Its rather a long story said Mr..
Evans. II have been interested in the
Indians for years and have felt that.
unless we acted promptly. we would
never be able to show the present
generation Ine lnQldn tTlOdi flle, Dc-
cause of the ever-changing condi-
fi6Rs on the reservations. which in
q few years will leave the old life
but a memory.
This seemed a splendid opportun-
ity, and so / determined to produce
as faithfully as possible. the customs,
the games, the sports and the home
life of the plains tribes, so that the
great hosts that gather in Washing
ton at this time from all parts of
our common country may carry away
with them vivid picture of a van
ishing race that may never be possi-
BILE again.
And it also seemed wise to like
wise present view of the western
country of pioneer days. the days of
Indian warfare and the many fea-
lures involved in the conquering of
the natural obstacles in the develop
ment of the great west, especially
