WATER TREES NOW

Luverne has long been famous for
her beautiful shade trees, thanks to
one of the founders of our city. Even
the stern necessity of eliminating
many of them, process that has
been going on for several years, still
leaves the city abundantiy BLESSED
with trees.
Nature has done her part we'll, and
now comes the time when the resi-
dents of Luverne must do their part
If we are to continue to enjoy the
beautiful trees which acorn our
streets and residence properties. They
must supplement the wonderful work
done by the late P. j. Kniss in pro-
noting tree planting, and the work
of nature in bringing those trees to
their present splendid state.
If our trees are to survive the
drouth of the past few years they
must go into their winter rest with
roots thoroughly moistened. This
does not mean mere wetting of the
surface of the ground, but a good
thorough soaking which will reach
far into the earth, for the earth is
dry as powder as far down as the
roots of the trees reach.
For months the trees have been
crying for water-their constantly
falling leaves being emblematic of
tear drops rung from them in their
suffering of thirst. Unless this
thirst is appeased before Writer sets
in and there is little likelihood of rain
sufficient to satisfy it, these trees
will come into dormant state in the
spring with insufficient strength to
meet natures demand, and many of
them will slowly, but surely, perish.
In many cases the situation is ag.
gravated by paving and sidewalks,
which further limit the amount of
moisture the trees can obtain, even if
normal rainfalls prevailed. In such
instances the trees demand artificial
watering, except in the wettest Of
seasons.
Let US save our trees. Not by
dumping a pail or two of water at
their trunks, but by turning on the
spray so it will cover a space of 20i
or 80 feet in diameter around each
tree, and leaving it run for several
hours at each tree.
Give the trees a good, satisfying
drink before they go into their win
ter sleep, for in this way only can
they emerge in the spring with
strength to live and thrive as the '
should, especially if next spring
should be as dry as the last several
springs have been.-Rock County
Herald.

Child Killed
By Speeder
ROSE GEESE MEETS DEATH ON
ROAD ON WAY HOME FROM

STOP.

One M those unlocked for and
dreadful accidents occurred Wednes-
day afternoon a short distance from
the state road five miles north OF

Giese. the 7-year-old daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. VIM. Giese was on the op-
posite side and in crossing over to the
other children was struck by a car
going it is said at a high rate OF
speed. AS near as could be learned
from the testimony of the children
at the inquest there was hut one &C.
cupant in the car, and he did not stop
for identification.
The children were Mortified and
called their teacher, Miss Peterson,
who took the little sufferer in her
arms where it expired IN little
while. Since then the teacher has
been so overcome she has been unable
to resume her school duties. The
car kept on it's way without paying
any attention to whether it had run
over human being or not
The county coroner was notified
and a jury was summoned for an in
quest of the remains Friday morn
ing. The jury composed Of P. P. Oh
son, o. R. Smith, John Wordes, Henry
Haen, A. A. Doerr, and George Sau-
sele met Friday morning and ad-
journed over until Saturday when
testimony was taken. After all wit
nesses, the school children had testi

sion that the child came to her death
by being hit by an automobile driven
by an unidentified driver.

HERITANCE TAX PASSAGr

Speaking before the Fairmont XII

que on Monday came out strong for
an Inheritance Tax, which he thinks
will be dominent issue in the next
Congress. The Fairmont Independ~

The preliminary hearing was set
for the following day at one o'clock,
but had to be postponed until Satur-

it should be provided that a tax be
made by each state upon the inner
itance under the $4,000 mark and
and above that mark should go to
the national inheritance taxes"
The speaker showed cleverly why
Florida was at present so popular for
the very rich, who, Congressman
Clague states, flock to that state
merely because Florida has passed
an amendment to the national con-
stitution whereby that state has no
inheritance tax. The "big bugs" feel
comfortable in state where such
law is not in force.

Pennsylvania Improves
Cattle Feeding Methods

Cattle feeding methods in the Lam
caster district have been changed COM
pletely In the past ten years because
Of the results obtained In steer feeding
at the Pennsylvania State college,
states DR. John M Thomas, president
of the college, in a report on "The
Service Of the Pennsylvania State
College to the Commonwealth"
'sThe old method has been changed
to the modern method as developed at
the experiment station" says Presi-
dent Thomas According to the best
available information, only 10 per cent
of the cattle feeders In the Lancaster
district had silos on their farms in
1914. Approximately so per cent of
all the cattle feeders In that district
are now using silos In their steer feed
ing work. This change in the method
Of feeding has resulted In more eco
nomical production and has meant
many thousands of dollars to the cat
tie feeders OF Pennsylvania.
"The experimental work in main
tanning a beef-feeding herd has been
a stimulus for the establishment of
more such herds in Pennsylvania, the
num- Der Of which Is constantly increas-
ing"

How to Get Most Value
From a Good Male Bird

The male is more than half the poul-
try flock. An inferior hen will pro-
duce poor chicks from only her own
eggs, but an inferior male will produce
inferior chicks from all eggs laid by
every hen in the pen, says D. j. Tay-
lor, poultry specialist, Kansas State
Agricultural college.
The selection Of a male to head
flock of pullets requires knowledge
of what his ancestors did in egg pro-
duction. He should be a good stand
ard-bred male from high-producing
family. 1t is preferable to select a
male whose mother, grandmother,
great-grandmothers and older ances-
tors have been trapnested and have
shown high percentage Of yearly egg
production records Of over 200 eggs
A male having consistently high rec
ords in all ancestors with high-produc-
Ing sisters is better than a male with
q much higher record mother, but rec
Drds Of sisters and others poorer, ac-
cording to Taylor.
Look to the male bird to furnish
q higher degree of excellence than the
females Any improvement is largely
the result of his superior qualities.
Only one male need be kept to each
ten or fifteen hens.

Improving Live
Stock Breeding
Reports and Comments From
Stockmen in Various
Parts of Country.

(Prepared By the United States Department
Of Agriculture.)
An unusual amount of sound counsel
on questions of live stock breeding Is
contained Ia recent reports received by
the United States Department Of Agri-
culture from skockmen throughout the
country. The reports and comments
were invited by QUESTIONABLE on
methods of improving farm live stock.
The following terse statements seem
suitable for consideration by farmers
seeking to improve their herds and
flOcks:
Terse Statements.
"The choice OF herd sire will likely
make or break you in the dairy game.
If you pick a good one, the price you
pay is Of little consequence if you
pick poor one, you will pay too much
even if you get him for nothing"
"Pure breds are better sellers and
make more meat for the amount Of
feed and length of time"
"When young, INFESTED stock is sold,
the breeder should keep in touch with
Tile puTCudS0I, So LudL IL Tic SLOCh
does not turn out as it should through
no fault Of the purchaser, the breeder
can make the deal right. 1t pays
directly and indirectly, aside from the
fact that it is the fair way to do"
preach individuals first and pedi-
grees second"
"None but high-producing cows are
profitable and the use of pure bred
sires is the shortest road"
High Utility Value.
The detailed report to which the
foregoing comments were incidental
shows briefly that pure bred live stock
has high utility value from produc-
.tion and market standpoint, and that
it costs but little more to produce high
class animals than the ordinary kind.
The investment and other factors
which appear sometimes to increase
production costs are offset by early
maturity and other Important savings
due to improved breeding.
