MISSING FARMER LOST
THROUGH ICE, BELIEF

COUDERAY. - Mystery surrounds
the disappearance of j. c. Hagen, a
farmer who for many years lived
north of Chief Lake, 10 miles north of
this place. Dec Is he left home to
walk to Couderay with the intention
of taking the train here for Park Falls
where he was to have some dental
work done, but when he did not re-
turn his neighbors started to make in
quiries and learned that he never
reached this place, nor has he been
seen elsewhere in this locality. 1t is
now thought that he fell through the
ice while crossing Chief lake, as his
road led across the lake and the ice
in many places was thin.

With the Farmers
Alfalfa and Lime Meeting Successful.

Alfalfa and Lime Meeting Successful.
The series of meetings held this
past week at Hazel Green, Cuba City.
Montfort, Sitter, Lancaster and Mt.
Ida, were well attended The at
tendance of the six meetings summing
up to 600 all told.
We feel certain that the 500 farm
ers who attended these meetings
went away with better idea of Lime
and Alfalfa. Prof. Graber's talks
were very clear and are based on IA
years that he has spent in working
with alfalfa. His findings are well
worth considering. We are sorry
that all who plan to start alfalfa this
year couldn't have heard him and
seen the lantern slides which bring
out very clearly the facts he present
ed. GRADER says, Alfalfa is the surest,
safest and best hay crop we can raise
If we follow the proper methods Of
culture. Briefly what is right IS
this. Lime soils if they need it. Sow
in spring with nurse crop of one bu-
shell and one peck to acre of early
oats. Yellow Kherson being the best.
Inoculate alfalfa seed before sowing.
When oats are headed out cut for hay.
Use Is pounds alfalfa, pounds Alsike
Glover and one pound of Timothy to
the acre with above mention nurse
crop. Also don't pasture the new
seeding.
Further he showed the results of
different kinds of seed in it's ability
to stand hard winters that we some
times have. His finding, combined
with others lead us to believe that
Grimm is the surest kind of alfalfa to
sow. Grimm being the hardest, we
will want to use it. 1t is with this in
mind | wish to add Be sure you get
Grimm, when you pay for it. Now
in order to assure ourselves that we
are getting what we are after. | sug-
gest you buy the seed that comes
through some Seed Growers associa-
ton. We have three real good
sources of Grimm that are depend
able. Now / do not mean by that
that all seed that does not come from
one of these sources is not Grimm,
some of it is, no doubt about it. Some
of it may not. Buy from sources that
have proven their value. Certified
Grimm is what you want to ask for.
Remember that we mean by certltca-
ton, that it is certified by some seed
growers association or state. 1t does
not mean a statement from some seed
house or an affidavit from some one
farmer. We want something behind
this high priced seed. Remember buy
your seed from sources that are de-
pendable. Get it only from associa-
tons that put it up in sealed bags.
Read the termination and purity test,
and also look for percentage of hard
seed Care should be taken in the
selection of seed Go after the prOduc-
ton of Alfalfa and let us protect our
selves with a real hay crop.
