LIVESTOCK BEST BET
FOR FARMER IN 1881.

The 1881 farm program in Minnesota
should again be conferred about the
livestock enterprises, although caution
must ba used against undue expansion,
Andrew Boss, vice director of the Min
nesota agricultural experiment station,
recently told Farmers and Home
makers Week visitors at University
Farm. Among the livestock enter
prises, DR.. Boss said, hogs seem to hold
the advantage, and hog production in
Minnesota should be increased this
year. Prices for beef cattle are thought
to be past the top of the price cycle
but present prospects indicate another
fairly satisfactory year.
DR.. Boss believes there is little pros
pect for increased returns from poultry
and sheep this year, because produc-
ton in both lines exceeds demand.
He pointed out, however, that there Is
still a probability of satisfactory re-
turns for those raising turkeys or pro-
ducing chickens and eggs on low
cost basis. Those established in the
dairy business have no reason as yet
for getting out of it, he said. BY close
CuulIlS, WIoC lSCOli1S eikio SOONA AiAeai6S-
ment those engaged in this enterprise
can make as good returns by sticking
to it as they can by shifting to some
other line.
In planning the feed crop program,
DR.. Boss stressed the importance of
providing abundant pasturage, as well
as ample acreageS of hay and other
o,,rad forouac liberal DrOyiSiOn should
also be made for the silage crop, he
said Other feed crops, such as corn,
barley and oats, as well as the root
crops, should be produced in abundance
on good livestock farms
Production of cash grain crops should
be kept at the lowest possible figure,
said DR.. Boss. The choice Will again
lie between wheat and flax, with corn,
barley and oats following. as the major

MINNESOTA LEGION
AHEAD OF 80 PACE.

Whereas on February l, 1880, 1921
Minnesota Legionnaires had paid their
current dues; on the same date this
year, 20,233 had gotten square with
their posts for the new year" says Oscar
Youngdahl of Minneapolis, state LIE
gion membership director, VINO calls
attention to the fact that this spirit
prevails down through the districts
and posts, and up into the regional and
national organizations, all of which are
well ahead of their 1880 pace.
Watch the Tenth district, led by
Clint Boo of Pine City," warns Chair
man Youngdahl. "Clint's posts need
1875 to reach their assigned 1881 quota,
which they are likely to do about Feb.
THE first time in history that any
Minnesota Legion district has achieved
this result so early-usually it is April,
and last year it was March % before
the Fifth district led all others over
the quota mark"
There are spirited contests between
the district and post commanders as
to which will roll up the biggest per-
centage of possible members in the
territory involved. Commander Roy
Huber of the Eighth district and Com
mander c. j. Wittbecker of the Ninth
are racing their posts to see which
district will reach it's quota first. The
Minneapolis Bearcat post, st. Paul
Post Eight, and David Visited Post OF
Duluth are straining to see which will
roll up the biggest 1881 total. And so
on.
Frank Lozar Post of this city ex-
poets to complete its enrolment by
February 10th. Adjutant Hoefler says
in all probability the post will go over
the top by that GATE as at present only
a few members are back on their 1881
enrolment and dues
