Will Harvest Potato Crop
CT St,000,000

in Hollandale, where just six
months ago many settler families
struggled against virtual starvation,
a vein of vegetable gold worth nearly
$4,000,000 has been uncovered in the
black muck of their truck farming
lands" says the Mankato Free Press.
families who lived only on pota-
toes last spring, and sometimes very
little of those have seen potato wealth
take the place of potato poverty as
they harvest a vegetable and truck
crop worth more than $3,500,000, it
was said today by X. F. Hall, direct
or of produce marketing in Minnesota
for the United States department of
agriculture.
"Out of the fiat 400 acres of the
dreds of loaded truck and wagons are
crowding the roads where only last
spring relief expeditions set forth
through snow drifts to carry food and
clothing to 120 suffering families in
the district.
Horses that died last winter from
starvation have been replaced by
sleek, well-fed teams, and in many
cases motor trucks, by the wealth
drawn from the reclaimed lake bed
as between fifty and eighty-five car
loads of potatoes are shipped to
market each day at price of $3.50
bushel.
Farmers who petitioned the court
last winter for relief from their OBJ
legations when they found that $500
an acre land and thirty cents bushel
potatoes did not mix, are learning
that $1,000 an acre crop and $500
an acre land leaves tidy sum in the
I bank.
"A bumper crop of high grde quail
ity, it was said, bringing exceptional
prices will, in some cases, pay off all
the debts which the settlers incurred
during the past three adverse years,
and in addition permit them to pay
for their land purchased under twen-
/ ty year contract. Other root crops
and garden truck also are showing
good yields, according to Hall, and
these, too, are bringing good prices,
though the acreage is smaller

PLANT BLUBS NOW FOR
EARLY SPRING FLOWERS

Brilliant spring displays for the
lawn or garden may be had at small!
cost by setting out tulip bulbs this
fall, according to L. Sando, fiorieul-
turist, University Farm, st. Paul,
who says that for Minnesota condi-
lions generally, the tulip is probably
the best all around flower of the bulb
variety.
!. Tulips may be planted in front OF
shrubs or in beds that were occupied
by petunias or geraniums during the
summer. Growers are advised not
to skimp in planting, but to get the
bulbs in masses, five to seven inches
apart, placing them at depth of
about five or six inches. Hyacinths
are probably the best bulb for formal
design in beds, Mr.. Sando says, al
though if room is not available for
this method of planting, some hya-
cinths should be planted anyway to
give variety.
For early spring flowers, snow
drops, scillas, corcus and the spring
snowflake are recommended. Bulbs
OF these varieties are small and
should be planted in masses. Shallow
planting, roughly twice the diameter
of the bulb, and getting them firmly
packed in the soil are the main points
to observe.
September or October is the proper
( time for planting. No manure should
come in contact with the bulbs, nor
should the beds or borders be covered
until the ground freezes. When
freezing takes place, they should be
covered with straw or mixture of
straw and leaves for winter protec-
ton. Bulbs should not be planted
when the ground is wet. In setting
a broad trowel should be used, as a
edible" is apt to- leave the bulbs
more or less suspended.

NEW BARN BURNS ON
FARM NEAR SLAYTON

A new and modern barn on the
farm of H. F. Quisley near Slayton,
was totally destroyed by fire last
week, and thus far the origin of the
fire still remains a mystery. The
fire was discovered about three
o'clock in the morning, but before
members of the family could get
dressed and get out to the barn the
building was a seething mass of
flames. Eight fine. horses were Gre
mated, and harness, tools and some
hay and grain, destroyed. The barn
was insured to the extent of $3.50.

$4,000 SHORTAGE FOUND

the treasurer of Lac qui Parle coun-
ty, Henry Rines, state comptroller

Minneapolis Tribune. l.. S. Sjolseth

be in excess of $4,000 when the audit
was completed.
Theodore S. Slen, county attorney,
declined to discuss the reported short
ages. Told of the report made ~

The whole tomato plant, and not
individual fruits, should be the basis
for selecting seed for next season.
The prevalent belief that an early
variety of tomato may be secured by
selecting seed from the first fruits to
ripen is erroneous, says the U. S. De-
partment of Agriculture, as on any
one plant all fruits are equally able
to transmit the tendency to earliness.
