The money will largely go into prizes

Clover or Grass Sod 8oosis Potato
Crop-"Fertilization of the potato
crop by clover sod is a matter of ma
jor Importance on new clay soils low
in humus." says M. j. Thompson,
superintendent of the Northeast Elk
pertinent station. A summary by Mr.
Thompson of seven years of potato
work shows that clover or grass sod
is the cheapest and most important
factor in potato production on heavy
clay soil. "When pastured the pre-
vious year." says the superintendent,
"the largest yield occurred; when the
hay crop was plowed under, the yield
dropped nine bushels, and when the
hay crop was harvested, the yield
dropped rs bushels" An experiment
made in 1922 indicates that early
planting is to be preferred. Potatoes
planted June produced only sc per
cent as much as stock planted May 20
the June 20 crop was SIS per cent and
the July l crop so per cent of the
yields from the May 20 plots. Not
only were the yields of the later plan
tings inferior, but the quality was be-
low standard.
Raspberries Barred; Special Permit
Needed-The states of New York,
Ohio, and Michigan, having establish
ed quarantine, on account of mos
aic diseases, against shipments of
raspberry plants from all other states
A. G. Ruggles of University Farm,
the Minnesota state entomologist,
gives notice that permits will be
granted by the three states mention
ed provided the plants are accom-
panied by special certificate from
his office that the beds from which
they were taken have had two in
spections, one in June or July and the
other in August or September, and
that all diseased plants have been re-
moved. Mr.. Ruggles further says that
any grower expecting to ship into
New York, Ohio, or Michigan should
apply to his office Immediately for
special inspection so that certificate
which will be acceptable to these
three states can be issued.

intimate friends the Funny Judge.
He wears white wig and great
black gown and black-rimmed specta'
cles, for he says he wants to look as
though he were Judge Fun. But not
only does he wear what ! have told
you about.
He wears, too, bright red ribbon to
sie back his wig, and so that no one
will fail to see his pleasant, friendly
smile, he has beautiful red and white
painted marks from his mouth to his
ears.
This Is so those who see him from a
side-view will know that he is smiling !!
Every so often Judge Fun admits
new creatures into the Court Of Humor
as it Is sometimes called the Court Of
Fun, and jury consisting OF twelve
Joking Jury men decide with Judge
Fun who are to be admitted.
Often people are admitted and are
members of the court without knowing
it. That happens very, very often. 1t
is Just decided in the court that these
should belong and so they do. | be-
lieve they have an idea that they really
belong too, whether they're actually
told about 1t or not!
First Of all this day there was lit
tie boy named Eugene. He was al
lowed in as soon as he had knocked,
for he was always saying very funny
things.
Judge Fun had laughed right heart
fly when little Eugene had said upon
being told that there was a coati-
mundi In the zoo,
"Oh, and is there trouser-Tuesday,
too?" For coati-mundi is pronounced
as though it were coat-y Monday
The coati-mundi, Of course, is the
friendly ant-bear.
After little Eugene had been admit
ted along came Grandfather Frog. He
was boasting but still 1t made the
Judge and the Jury all chuckle.
.Whatl'' he said. Boys have al.
ways been merely boys! How much ]
have to be thankful for in my Tad
pole ancestry"
Admitted" said the Judge. The
Jury had all quite agreed for one look
at Grandfather Frog was alone enough

"Pardnere."

In these days of bonding companies
and enormous corporations the old
phrase, "His word was as good as his
bond" has homely sound, and little
tales of long partnership with never
hard and fast legal instrument NAM
ing what is his and what is others,
seem like old tales out Of the past.
But the other day when Sam Harris
and George NJ COhan dissolved their
seventeen-year-old partnership, they
ended period of agreement in their
joint producing business in which no
contract ever existed, and yet their
business was one where more can
tankerous bitches occur than In most.
Smooth are the seas when two men,
each of whose word goes, do business

Radium From Bohemia.

aforementioned mines at Jachy-
NOV, Bohemia, are turning out ura-
mum ore, rich in radium, and the
known supply is said to be sufficient
for 20 years at the present rate OF
production; in addition, there are
three large mines not yet prospected
as to depth. These facts are given
out by the Scientific American. Two
grams of radium year are now be-
ing produced and net profits to the
Czechoslovak republic for the past year
were about 100000 crowns. The ra-
dunn il selling today at 100000
crowns per gram, crown being now
worth about 1874 cents. While pro-
duction in the United States is greater
in quantity, the Jachymov ores are
reputed to be richer in quality.

Time Yet to Grow Good Forage
Crops-Dry weather in May and
early June has greatly shortened the
hay and pasture crops in many locali-
ties and every farmer would do well
to consider carefully whether he will
have sufficient hay and forage for
his needs. "There is still the possibi-
lily of planting emergency forage
crops" says R. F. Grim, extension
division, University Farm. "Among
the best that can be planted now are
fodder corn and millet. Seeding
should be done at once for best re-
suits. Those who are short of hay
may also profitably give attention to
caring for the oat and barley straw
so as to keep it in good condition. 1t
has considerable feeding value if run
into the barn at threshing time or if
put in well shaped stacks. In cases
where there is good stand of med
ium red clover but a poor yield due
to dry weather, the yield of second
cutting may be materially increased
by early cutting of the first crop. Be
yond the corn belt sunflowers cut at
the right time should be conserved
for winted forage feeding"
Alfalfa Crop Makes Good Show
ing-Alfalfa was knee-high on May
%, says the Houston county agricul-
tural agent. Trial patches of sweet
clover stood up even higher than the
alfalfa. At the same time TIE mead
ows were very short-not more than
six inches high-on account of the
dry weather. Another object lesson
is reported by L. v. Wilson, dairy ex-
tension specialist, who waded recent
ly in a heavy stand of alfalfa which
was more than kneehigh, while sep
arated from it by only barbed-wire
fence was timothy hay meadow
which, as Mr.. Wilson expresses it,
wouldn't yield enough grass if cut
with lawn mower to supply the
scratchpan in the chicken yard"

Mimi. Medium Best of All Red
Clovers- Nearly SO varieties of red
clover are growing in quadruplicate
one-fiftieth acre plots at University
Farm. Seed from France, Italy, Great
Britain, Holland, Chile, Germany,
Sweden, and Balkans, and from prac-
tically all the clover seed producing
sections of the United States and
Canada was planted last year, the
the object being to demonstrate to
seedmen and farmers the Importance
of handling and planting only hardy
home grown red clover known as
minnesota Medium" less than / per
cent of which killed out last winter,
leads all the rest. Seed from Ten
nessee makes only moderately good
showing, about Is per cent having
been winter killed. The Chilean,
French, and Italian varieties were
nearly wiped out, losses running from
around 90 to 95 per cent. Findings
from this particular investigation
should put the farmer on his guard

many foolish remarks as grown people
would make out! Judge Fun knows

"Of course I know that" said Judge
Fun. "But dear me, dear me, so many
grown-ups don't realize how many
children there are who never say such
foolish things.
Sand, too, they forget. Poor grown
ups"

ORCHARD AND GARDEN
Keep cultivator goniw. Sow turn
ips or rutabagas on the newly plowed
strawberry bed.
A final planting of Golden Bantam
sweet corn may now be made.
Late celery and cabbage may still
be planted.
Watch the rose bushes for snout
beetles and other insects.
See that the tomatoes are staked.
Some of the branches may be cut
away. This will give larger fruit.
| Watch the sweet peas closely for
aphis and green fly. Spray with soap
and water or some tobacco prepare
ton, such as nicoticide.
Highbush cranberry was one of the
fruits not injured by the early frost
and is now well loaded with green
berries.
Keep the dahlia plants pruned to
not over four canes and much nicer
flowers will be the result. They should
also be staked for best results.
! Colorado Columbine (Aquilegia
Caerulea) is one of the best perennial
Towering plants for the garden. If
one wants other colors than blue, a
variety of color may be found among
the Aquilegia.
The old strawberry bed may be re-
newed by moving the foliage, raking
it off or burning it quickly on the bed
then hoeing out or blowing all but a
strip about one foot wide of the bed,
and letting the new plants take the
space.-Le Roy Cady, associate hor-

SUBSIDY EXPOSED
AGAIN

Washington.-How can men talk of
the high cost of building American
vessels, when they will get vessels,
from the shipping board at is cents
on the dollar? asks Congressman
Robsion, of Kentucky.
mo one contends" he said, "that
the persons who buy our ships will
pay more than Is cents on the dollar
of the cost; and, of course, this
knocks out the question of high cost,
and it has been shown that a British
ship of equal size with an American
ship pays practically the same wages
as an American ship, and whatever
sum we vote for ship subsidy will
benefit the American shipper but lit
tie, if anything. Railroad rates are
so high that they have crippled many
industries of this country"

Standard oil interests. 1t requires
production to support pipe lines and
refneries, and this the independent
companies have not, and neither can
they get it. To compete with the
Standard oil monopoly is difficult, but
to compete with combination of
Standard oil and the United States
government is impossible. Apparently
only the favored" interests ever can
operate on the public domain.
Mammoth Got All
Let it be distinctly understood that
the government royalties from the
Teapot field were not included in this
recent transaction, because all that
ever may be produced from this field
were sold, clandestinely and without
competitive bidding, to the Mammoth
Oil Company in the leasing arrange
ment of last April Neither can the
government ever demand these royal
ties in kind.
