slope, where there are rough roads
which are kept open greater part of
the year. At an elevation Of about II,
500 feet horses are left behind. Diego
de Ordaz was probably the first Euro

SAYS CASH RENT BEST
FOR CAPABLE FARMER

Cash rent is the most satisfactory
type of lease for the capable farmer
who is financially able to take all the
risk of the farm business, says DR..
VIM. L. Cavert, extension economist,
University Farm, who has recently
made survey of farm leases in Min
nesota, in cooperation with the divi-
sion of farm management and agri-
cultural economics. Cash rent, DR..
Cavert, says, enables the good farm
er to take for himself all the extra
income due to his good farming. It
is also most satisfactory to the land
lord who is not able to give the farm
close attention.
Regarding the livestock basis of
rental, DR.. Cavert says: livestock
leases have at various times been
urged as the most desirable type of
lease for both tenant and landlord.
They are desirable type of lease for
the retired farmer or other landlord
who is able and willing to devote con-
siderable time to looking after his
land. They are also desirable type
of lease for the young farmer who
lacks sufficient capital to equip a
farm without assistance from the
landlord"
In the survey made, DR.. Cavert
sent out large number of question
naires to both tenants and landlords
throughout Minnesota and carefully
analysed the several hundred replies
which were received.

SIXTY-ACRE PEAT LAND
FIRE THE PAST MONTH

Sixty acres of peat land on the
Fred Cannon farm near Winnebago
City, is burning up. The fire is be-
lieved to have started by some one
dropping a cigaret when the peat
crops was being cut several weeks
ago. The fire spread beneath the
surface until about two weeks ago,
when it had reached such proportions
that flames belched forth and crept
to straw stack some distance away.
Other straw stacks in the vicinity
were protected by blowing around
them.
The peat land was at one time the
bottom of a shallow lake which has
been drained and since has been on
fire number of times, but never to
the extent of the present fire. The
peat is two to three feet deep. At
intervals the flames arise to height
of fifteen feet.

DOUBLE-CROSSED CORN
BEING PUT TO TEST

Double-crossed corn has been put
to it's first real test on Minnesota
farms this summer and agronomists
of the Minnesota Agricultural Elk
pertinent Station will be busy for the
next few weeks checking up to find
out just how we'll the double-crossed
strains stand up and produce in COM
parison with farmers own varieties.
Last spring the experiment station
furnished 400 five-pound lots of dou-
ble-crossed seed to be planted in
farmers fields throughout central
Minnesota. Farmers receiving this
seed planted it right alongside the
seed of their standard farm varieties,
giving the crops from both kinds of
seed identical handling and care. In
making the check-ups 100 hills select
ed at random will be harvested from
the farmers variety and from the
double crosses on each farm and the
yields compared. Moisture tests will
also be made and the corn breeding
specialists will look for such things
as diseases, lodging, and other evid-
ences of strength or weakness in the
new double-crossed strains.
The results are expected to give
some dependable information on
whether or not the double-crossed
strains will show sufficient superior
ity over the farm varieties to pay for
the extra cost of securing the seed
each year.

SOW WINTER RYE NOW
FOR FALL PASTURAGE

With pastures seriously depleted
on many farms as a result of this
summers drouth, agronomists at the
Minnesota Agricultural Experiment
Station are recommending that win
ter rye be sown now to provide for
age for livestock this fall and early
next sprng. Winter rye is one of the
best crops to be used in the fall for
a rapid growth of succulent heritage,
say Ralph F. Grim and DR.. H. K.
Wilson.
One advantage of winter rye is the
moderate cost of the seed. Winter
rye should be seeded early after the
removal of the summer crop and when
moisture conditions are such that
the soil can be prepared properly. In
most cases seeding should be done
before the middle of September. Any
standard variety, such as Swedish,
Minnesota No. 2, Dakold, or Rosen
may be sown at the rate of " to 2
bushels per acre. Usually the crop
may be pastured within three to four
weeks after seeding, but the plants
must be given a chance to recover be-
fore the coming of cold weather If
the crops are to be used the follow
ing spring.
Since there may be need of pastur-
age in the spring after the fall-sown
rye crop is no longer available, an
additional field may be sown about
the time of sowing spring wheat or
oats. Combinations of the ordinary
spring-sown grain crops may also be
utilized. Of these, rye, barley, and
oats make good combination, while
for late summer pasture sudan grass
NAV be used.

DOGS KILL HOGS ON
FARM NEAR ST. JAMES

Five head of spring hogs were
killed and twenty others injured by
pack of stray dogs on the Ed. Bjork-
man farm near st. James recently.
Mr.. Bjorkman discovered the animals
when he heard a commotion in the
hog yard during the night. Two of the
hogs were dead when he got there
and three others died the next day.
About twenty other hogs in the herd
were injured and slashed by the
teeth of the wild marauders.

ORGANIZE RAMS RINGS
ON BULL RING PLAN

Koochichlng county sheep breeders
are attempting to solve the problem
OF getting good pure bred lambs at
low cost through cooperation. They
have founded county ram associa-
ton which is believed to be the first
organization of it's kind ever at
tempted among sheep breeders. In
general, the plan is patterned after
the familiar bull ring. 1t provides
for the cooperative purchase of high
quality pure bred rams and the ro-
tating of them among different
focks, thereby keeping them in serv-
ice several successive years.
The association, known as the
Koochiching County Ram association,
was formed about month ago under
the leadership of County Agent R. j.
Bibelhausen and w. E. Morris, live
stock specialist, University Farm.
Sixteen purebred Hampshire and
Shropshire rams purchased in south
ern Minnesota have just been distri-
buted to the members following their
exhibition at the Littlefork Fair. The
articles and bylaws under which the
new association will operate were
drawn up by Mr.. Morris with the ad-
vice of Dean w. C. Coffey and other
authorities on sheep.
The association is divided up into
blocks of so ewes each. At the start
each block is required to furnish $50.
The association owns all the rams
and purchases as many as it has
blocks, assigning one ram to each
for the season. Each year the rams
will be rotated, and after the first
year service of $40 per block will
be charged, the money to be used as
needed for the replacement of rams.

MORE IDLE
Ask City Lodging Now
Than During Winter

New York City NS)-With the
municipal lodging house now caring
for more unemployed men, women and
children than it did last winter, Com
missioner of Welfare Frank j. Taylor
is preparing plans to double the ca
pacity of the house and to silicit the
aid of the city's charitable institu-
tions in anticipation of a further in
crease in calls for free food and
lodgings next winter.
The average daily number of per-
sons housed and fed at the lodgings
for the quarter ended June 80, it was
revealed, was $50, higher than for the
corresponding quarter of the two last
peak years, which were 1914, when
the average was 94S, and 1915, when
the average was 970.
On Monday night, August 25, the
municipal lodging house cared for
1,245 persons, about 7 per cent of
whom were women and children. AS
a contrast the records showed that
last December the number of persons
cared for nightly seldom reached
LOCO This summer is showing a 80
per cent increase over. last year in the
number of applicants, and about 90
per cent of those looking for beds
come from out of the city.

High Pay Held Necessary Step
To Making Of Greater Profits
EVICTION
OF One Hundred Families
Threat of Cone Interests

Greensboro, N. c. (ILNS)-If en-
ployes of the Proximity and Revolu-
tion mills here, owned and operated
by Cone interests, have not taken
kindly to ham at Christmas" idea of
the bosses, neither are they inclined
to be meek and retiring about evic-
ton threats.
1t has been rumored that the Rev
olution mill management intended
evicting some 100 additional families
from their homes if they persisted in
joining the union. Up until the last
mass meeting no additional families
had been thrown out of their homes.
Hearings Called Farce
The recent eviction hearings held
before township justices of the peace
are regarded as mere legal farces.
When the eviction cares come up for
hearing jury trial was demanded.
1t was found, however, that the mag
istrate had no jury list from which
to draw. The North Carolina law de-
clares that magistrate courts must be
provided with a jury list of all per-
sons in their respective townships
eligible to serve as jurors. Attorneys
for the evicted persons demanded
jury trial, which had to be postponed
until the jury law was complied with.
1t was also discovered that the de-
PENDANTS were being arraigned in
township removed from where the al
legged offense was committed. The
Revolution Mills which are prosecut-
ing the casts are in Gilmer township
where the mill village is situated, al
though the court action was brought
in Moorehead township. The cases
grew out of the discharge of 81 work
ers in the Revolution Mills, which are
the largest denim mills in the world.
Tent Colony Springs Up
Following the loss of their jobs a
number of families were set out on
the street. Having no place to go,
union officials set up tent colony for
the homeless workers. The city coun-
Gil refused to grant the request of the
union for a water line to the tent
dwellers, but this did not prevent the
tented town from springing up over
night.
Despite these hindrances members
are joining the union daily, Charles
Mr.. Gaskill, business representative
of the Greensboro central labor body,
said. at will take more than ham
to keep these mill workers out of the
union" Gaskill declared.
