TO SEE NEW SEEDLINGS
AT APPLE DAY MEETING

Large numbers of Minnesota apple
growers and fruit breeders, including
members of the State Horticultural
Society, will visit the fruit breeding
farm of the University of Minnesota
at Excelsior, September 81, to wit
ness the new seeding apples that
have been produced by the university
fruit breeding experts and that are
bearing fruit this year for the first
time.
Hundreds of thousands of apple
seeds have been planted in an effort
to secure varieties of winter apples
that are hardy and productive. To
date, four seeding apples have been
named out of the thousand of trees
grown. One of these, called the
HARRISON, in honor of Charles Haral-
son, former superintendent of the
fruit breeding farm, is a late-keeping
apple that is proving to be hardy.
This will be one of the variety to be
seen on the Apple Day Program.
Prof. w. H. Alderman, chief of the
division of horticulture, University
Farm, St. Paul, will start off a tour
of the grounds at p. m. He will
be assisted by other members of the
horticulture staff in showing the
visitors around the fruit farm and
answering any questions they may
care to ask. Everyone interested in
apples is invited to be present and
anyone wishing to bring lunch will
find a picnic grove equipped with
water and camp stoves available fol
their convenience.
1t is said few successful men are
bachelors. But, the price of success
does come high, don't tx.

PLAN TO START FOREST
FIRES AND STUDY THEM

After centuries of fearing, fleeing
| and fighting forest fires, we are now
about to study them. DIR. Raphael
Zon, director of the Lake States
Forest Experiment Station, located
at University Farm, st. Paul, has an
nounced pans for establishing un-
ique experimental station devoted al
most exclusively to the investigation
of forest problems. The tract to be
used consist of several sections in
the sandy jack pine belt of Michigan,
near Roscommon.
The area will be surrounded by a
3O0-foot fire line and divided into lots
of 20 to 40 acres. Fires will be set
deliberately in order to determine the
effect of climatic factors, such as
temperature and humidity of the air,
wind velocity and inflammability- of
the duff, upon the ease with which
fires may be started, the extent and
rapidity of spread, and the damage
caused. Fires will be set during the
spring, summer and fall, in the morn
ing, noon, and evening, and under
all sorts of wind, weather and other
conditions.
All work will be carried on under
the supervision of an experienced
fire warden and the fires will be used
Tor testing out fire-fghting equip
ment and methods, as well as serv-
ing as training school for the state
fire rangers in combating fires. Areas
to be burned will be carefully stud
led as to soil and growth both before
and after the fires so as to show the
changes brought about.
After an area is burned over once,
or possibly twice, it will be studied
with respect to it's reforstation by
natural and artificial means. The
fire damage to second growth timber
will also be determined.

BIDS ASKED ON TWO
INTERSTATE BRIDGES

Work on two interstate bridges
connecting Minnesota and North Da-
kota, will get under way this fall.
according to information given out
by C. M. Babcock, commissioner of
highways of Minnesota. Bids will
be opened jointly by the North Da-
kota highway department and the
Minnesota highway commissioner
September 26th, at the city hall at
Moorhead, on a bridge connecting
that city with Fargo, N. D. Bids on
a new bridge connecting Wahpeton,
N. D., and Breckenridge, Mimi, will
be opened at the court house at
Breckenridge September 25th.
The Moorhead-Fargo bridge will
have $50 foot steel truss main span
and 5 As foot steel beam approach
spans. 1t will have a "a foot road
way and two 51a foot sidewalks.
This bridge will not be part of the
Minnesota trunk highway system,
but the Minnesota Highway depart
ment is contributing to the cost of
the bridge because it will be used as
a detour during the time the Center
street bridge, which connects with
T. H. No. 2, is being rebuilt. The
city of Moorhead and Clay county
are also contributing to Minnesota's
half of the cost of the bridge.
The new bridge at Breckenridge
will replace the present bridge at the
terminus of T. H. No. 3, which is un-
safe and inadequate for present day
traffic. 1t will consist of three 40
foot reinforced concrete spans, with a
40 foot roadway and two foot side
walks. The contractor will also be
required to remove the old bridge and
to provide TEMPORARY crossing.
The two states this month are COM
peting new bridge between Grand
Forks, N. D., and East Grand Forks,
Mimi, at the terminus of Minnesota
T. H. No. 8.

FAIRMONT SALESMAN
HELD UP AND ROBBED

Lloyd Smith of Fairmont, Hudson
salesman, had mighty disagreeable
experience recently. When on one
of his trips between Duluth and the
Twin Cities, Mr.. Smith had a flat
tire near White Bear. He stopped to
make the change and while stopped
over working on the tire he felt a
poke in his ribs accompanied by the
command to -"stick 'em up" He
gladly complied with the request and
the robber relieved him of all his
money, approximately $50. After the
robbery Mr.. Smith asked if he
highwayman if he wouldn't give him
enough money to get home on and
the robber handed him a $500 bill
and told him to "beat it"

400 CHICKENS STOLEN
ON FARM NEAR GLENCOE

A flock of 400 fine chickens dis
appeared from the farm of Gus Won
Brelje south of Glencoe, when thieves
visited the place some time Saturday
evening. Sheriff Beihoffer of Sibley
county is cooperating with authori-
ties and the Burns detective agency
in an effort to apprehend the purpet-
rators of the crime. The stealing
of chickens is becoming common at
this season of the year that it be-
hooves farmers to have gun shells
loaded with bird shot to greet mis-
creants when they are sure their
their property is being stolen.

FARMERS WARNED AGAINST
SEEDING TOO LARGE
WINTER WHEAT ACREAGE

If farmers carry out their express
ed intentions to seed this fall an &C.
reage of winter wheat LIZ per cent
greater than was seeded asst fall pro-
duction will, with average abandon
ment and average yield, continue to
be we'll above domestic requirements
and the 1880 winter wheat crop will
have to be marketed on an export
basis, says the Bureau of Agricul-
tural Economics, U. S. Department
of Agriculture, in it's outlook report
on winter wheat issued September 6.
"The world market for wheat of
probably will be no better than, and
the 1880 CROP" says the bureau,
may not be as good as, that for the
present season. Yields of spring
wheat in the United States and Can
ada this year have been very low and
prospects now are that yields in Ar
gentina and Australia. will also be
lower than usual. Farmers should
not depend upon low yields next year
keeping down the world wheat crop.
Looking further ahead, United
States farmers must expect to meet
continued keen competition in export
markets from Canada, Australia and
Argentina. Furthermore, there is a
possibility that Russia may egain be
a factor in the world market in a
few years. In view of the general
tendency for expansion of acreage in
the principal exporting countries, it
seems very doubtful whether prices
of wheat in world markets in the next
few years will average much above
the levels of the last six years, un-
less unfavorable conditions result in
a series of unusually low Yields,

dollar, that they took all but $40 of
$50 they had, Although the latter told
them that they had no more funds to

doctors worked in this vicinity, were
captured, released on bail, and are
still to be brought back to this county
