WHEN ONE-CROP SYSTEM FAILS
Mixed Farming Wins Ryder Rosegn District North Dakota

A lesson in profitable farming
methods comes to the farmers of
prairie lands out of the Ryder Rose
glen district of Ward and Mclean
Counties, in western North Dakota.
1t is a message of practical farm
experience achieved under conditions
similar to those under which prairie
farmers all over the Northwest are
working.
To those who attended tour Of
the farms Of the Ryder Roseglen dis
trict June q, is was most simple
lesson to understand. There it was
before their eyes, demonstration
of practical farming. There, also,
were the farmers who owned and
worked the farms, ready to answer
all questions. More than 500 farm
ers and business men of Ward, Nc
Kenzie Counties took part in this
tour.
The Ryder-Roseglen district, which
is one Of the most prosperous, most
truly diversified districts of North
Dakota, boasts a varied system Of
cropping which produces variety
of feeds for all kinds of livestock.
AlfalfH sweet clover, corn, flax,
wheat, dairy cattle, sheep, hogs and
poultry all play an important part in
the farming system Of that locality.
The story of success on these
farms is story Of struggled real

prairies and to work out profitable
system of farming. Take for exam
pie, the experiences of Ole Lunden.
He was homesteader. Through a
mistake in fulfilling the homestead
| laws, he lost his homestead. He
found himself without a cent-he had
nothing except Us physical strength,
health, and lots of pluck.
Cows and Alfalfa
That was in 1914. He bought an
S0-acre tract and two scrub cows on
a crop-payment plan, got married
and went to farming. One of his
neighbors had a. bure-bred Holstein
bull. Mr.. Lunden made it a point
to breed his cows to this bull until
he was able to buy purebred Hol-
stein sire -of his own.
He now has &c grade Holsteins
including calves and heifers. He is
milking IL cows and selling his
cream at the cooperative cream sta.
ton at Ryder. Last year, the sale
of butterfat averaged $11O per COW
He now has his third purebred Hol
stein bull, and his herd shows the
results of 10 years of breeding to-
ward improved dairy type and higher
milk production.
A few years ago, Mr.. Lunder
+ bought another quarter section ant
is now farming 24O acres. He has
; registered 50-acre field of Grimm al
falfa, and has sold 81 200 worth O
seed from this field, besides getting
good supply of hay.

son is a Duroc Jersey breeder. He
recently started to build up herd
of Guernsey cattle. He has small
herd of grade and purebred cows
and has just bought good pure
bred Guernsey bull to head his herd.
Then there was the farm of Paul
HOLDEN, who has grade Shorthorns
and Holsteins, headed by purebred
Holstein sire. He has Poland China
hogs, which he pastures on alfalfa
and sweet clover pasture, thereby
keeping down his production costs.
The farms of Hans and John Lun-
den, brothers, and that of Peter
HOLDEN, are splendid examples of i'm
proved farms, with nice groves and
fine, well-equipped homes and farm
buildings, such as one finds more
often on well-established farms in
older farming sections. These farm
ers have farmed in that district for
more than 20 yeas. They report
greatly increased grain yields follow
ing sweet clover, alfalfa and cult
waited crops.
REAL MIXED FARMING
There is 160-acre alfalfa field
on the farm Of John Lunden. Hans
Lunden has 100 acres in sweet clo-
yer and 100 acres in alfalfa. He has
a very good herd of purebred Short
horn cattle. Starting in 1914 with
one purebred Holstein heifer. Peter
HOLDEN has built up herd Of "a
Holsteins. He is milking ID cows
now. His cream checks last year
amounted to $1,O36. He has Duroc
Jersey hogs. His wife made $3.50
from turkeys last year.
This was the second annual tour
which has been held in the Ryder
Roseglen district. The Town Criers'
Club of Ryder, working with John
HUSKY. county agent of Ward Coun-
ty and A. L. Norling, county agent
Of Mclean County. arranged this
tour. The Town Criers' Committee in
charge of the tour was composed
of f. f. Fredeen, Paul Rode, George
Wertzler, L. S. Officer, A. J. Granum,
Peter HOLDEN, c. A. Olsen, and Ole
Lunden, and all deserve great credit
for their enterprise and management.
The tourists expressed wonder and
delight at the splendid farms which
they saw. These farms carry a mes
sage Of cheer to the thousands who
have lost hope because the one-crop
method of farming has failed. These
successes in diversification give
farmers new vision and new cour-
age.--Reprinted from The Farmer of

The Roosevelt tradition is to be
carried over into this years presi-
Dental campaign, via the personality
of Hell an Marie" Dawes.
Perhaps we shouldn't have put it
that way, since the vice presidential
running mate of President Coolidge
has indicated that he wishes to shed
his picturesque sobriquet for more
sober one, better befitting the dignity
of possible vice president. Any
way, Dawes and his rambunctious
personality are to be painted as of
the same generalScharacter Of those
vigorous, strenuous attributes which
so endeared "T. R." to the American
people.
The politician with a punch" how
ever, who is most under discussion
in Washington these days, is none
other than Senator Joe Robinson of
Arkansas.
Robinson jumped right into the
center of the capitals table con-
versations the other day when in an
alteration over golf etiquette, he
swung with his fist instead Of his
mid-iron and knocked DR.. James
Mitchell for a dead One. No one
claims it was dub stroke, but
Mitchell claims the senator scored on
a foul and protested to the club
management, exhibiting a black eye
as Exhibit A.
The discussions that resulted
haven't been equalled in the exclusive
Chevy Chase Club circles since Taft
tried golf as weight-reducer.
The Robinson fans said Joe should
have used his driver instead Of his
fist, but the Mitchell adherents held
that his fist proved mashie, which
mo gentleman would use on his first
shot.
The upshot of all the talk was
that Robinson was expelled from the
club. Not because he hit Mitchell
but because he got the club too much
talked about!

Business
Let us look at three-ring circus and mar
vel. Here are literally hundreds of people,
hundreds of animals, and more paraphernalia
than you find in small-sized factory-all on
the move.
Here is a complete city, set up every day in
strange place-giving parade and two
performances - taken down, packed away,
loaded on train, moved to another city and
set up again.
Any business can learn something about
efficiency from a circus.
Take the "24-hour man" as one example,
The "A-hour man" goes one day ahead of
the circus. He contracts for all the food for
this army of performers. He arranges to
have local bakery deliver bread; he buys
vegetables and meat; he buys tons of hay for
the horses and elephants.
The "24-hour man" sees the city officials.
He arranges for license; he arranges for
water, piped to "the lot;" sometimes he ar
SCcS
itself is clear and ready for occupancy the
next day.
Then comes the circus. All it has to do is
go to "the lot," set up, give it's parade and it's
two performances
If it were not for the "24 hour man. the
circus itself would stand fair chance of vast
ing it's time and spending it's energy running
down and taking care of the details which one
man handled so efficiently the day before.
Does Your Business Need "a Hour Man?
The "A-hour man" of business is printing.
Printing takes care of thousand details
which would otherwise fall upon salesman.
Printing thus helps your statesmen -wheth-
er they are in retail store or travelling ION
the road" 1t enables your statesmen to per-
form as they are intended to perform-by
bringing in sales. -
Without printing, any salesman must waste
time in explaining your policy building con-
f1dence = explaining the merits of naerchan-
dise-removing obstacles to buying, from the
purchasers mind.
With printing, you can do these things for
your salesman.
That's just one advantage of printing. Let
US telly you more of them. a.
