NEW ULM POLICE
ICATCH CAR THIEF

New Ulm-Their attention at
tracted to car travelling up and
down various streets in the north
end of the city at about 3 a. m.
recently and believing it to be
driven by a stranger seeking a
house address, Officers Edward L.
Larson and Albert Hackbarth
halted the vehicle and questioned
its driver.
The motorist aroused the sus-
picion of officers when he gave
his name as Jackson despite his
unmistakable German appearance.
He was unable to produce either
a drivers license or a registration
card. The trusting officers took
him to the station for questioning.
Repeated questioning by the po-
lice, forced the man to give his
right name, that Of Albert Dark
ow. He stated that he had bought
the car in St. Paul but didn't re-
member the name of the dealer
who sold it to him. Search of the
in the car revealed
a membership card in the LIE
Sueur County Game Protective
league issued to Roland Christen-
sen of LIE Sueur. A telephone call
to Christensen revealed that the
car belonged to him. He came to
New Ulm the same day to claim it.
Darkow was placed under arrest
and turned over to LIE Sueur au-
thorities.

To show how the new soil con-
|servation program would apply to
an individual farm, Nate H. Bovee,
The county agent, uses an illustra-
ton involving a typical farm OF
go acres.
On such a farm, he points out,
10 acres might be in lots, yards,
.anes and buildings, 10 acres in
lecond-year alfalfa, so acres in
corn and 80 acres in wheat, barley
and oats, 10 acres of the 80 being
seeded to sweet clover with the
..urse crop cut for grain or hay in
1885.
The soil-depleting base for this
farm, or the acreage on which all
I'd. ustments would be based,
would be 14O acres 600 acres of
small grain plus so acres of corn)
more or less, depending on modi-
cation made by the county or
state committee to Offset unusual
conditions. The ten acres on which
the sweet clover was seeded with
small grain would be considered
soil-depleting, because the nurse
crop was harvested.
The largest acreage on which
the farmer might receive soil
conserving payment would be 10
ger cent of 14O acres or 81 acres.
To earn this, he must shift 21
acres from soil-depleting crops to
soi.-conserving crops. The 10 acres
of sweet clover seeded in 1885, If
used for pasture, hay or seed this
year, would qualify for part OF
this shift, since it would help to
duce the soil-depleting acreage.
To qualify for the remainder, the
farmer might seed II acres more
to alfalfa or sweet clover. If a
aurse-crop were seeded with the
legume, it must, to qualify the
"rop for soil-conserving payment,
~e clipped green or pastured.
The soil-conserving payment for
this farm would be $210, more or
less, depending on the productivity
of the soil (21 acres shifted times
SO, more or less, per acre).
In addition, the farmer might
qualify for a soil-building pay
ment equal to 81 for each acre u.s.
ed for the production of soil
building and soil-conserving crops
n 1886. The II acres of alfalfa OF
sweet clover seeded in 1886 as well
as the 10 acres of sweet clover
seeded in 1885 and the 10 acres OF
alfalfa seeded in 1884, would al
be classified as bodybuilding" OF
"soil-conserving," making tota
of 81 acres. At 81 per acre, thu
possible soil-building payment fo1
this farm would be $31.
To earn this payment, the farm
er might perform one or more O.
the following soil-building prac
Ices, with payments per acre a
listed: new seedlings of legumes o.
crop lands, 81 to 50, depending o.
kind; new planting of forest tree
on crop or pasture land, SIS; an
! applications Of ground limeston
to crop or pasture land, at ton
per acre, $3.50. The acres o

Grim Cautions Corn
Growers About Seed

Disappointment lies ahead for
many Minnesota corn growers who
take chances this spring on the
termination of their seed or who
plant varieties that are not adopt
ID to their location, says Ralph F.
Grim, extension agronomist, Uni
versity Farm, St. Paul.
With the seed corn situation so
ritIcal this year, Mr.. Grim urges
every farmer to test his seed care
luny before planting. Those who
tested last fall or in early winter
should retest to see how their seed
has held up in vitality. When it
is impossible to obtain seed that
will germinate satisfactorily,
mean ng 80 per cent or above, seed
of lower termination may be
painted provided the planter is
adjusted to drop more kernels per
hill. Tests have shown that this
thicker planting of seed Of rather
low termination distributes the
a,an1 fairly well.
According to reports, a good
deal of seed corn has been sold in
Minnesota that was grown in
entral or southern Illinois, south
ern Iowa, and Missouri. Even
.n1 ugh corn from these regions
might germinate 100 per cent, it
would not be wise for Minnesota
farmers to use it, says Mr.. Grim,
as it probably will not mature pro-
perly even for silage.
Though Minnesota hybrid corn,
developed by the Minnesota Agri-
cultural Experiment Station, is
much superior to ordinary farm
varieties, farmers are cautioned to
take care in buying hybrid seed.
Some people are making a racket
out of selling fake or inferior by
brids.
Owing to the extreme shortage
of good seed this year, the use of
advanced generation commercial
hybrid seed may be justifiable, Mr.
Grim says, but such corn probably
will prove no better than standard
varieties and so no premium
should be paid for it.

victory today.
A crowd of $4,000, the largest Of

Wisconsin's 1873 from rushing, the
Badgers made II first downs to
Minnesota's 8.
The Badgers pass attack was
smothered, however, 10 or Mime
sofas points being attributable di-
rectly to pass interceptions.
Andy Urar1, halfback, whose kicking
and offensive drive was a standout,
put Minnesota into position to score
it first three points early in the first.
He intercepted pass on the Badgers

Gopher guard, booted field goal
from the 40. giving Minnesota q

" Yale's brilliant foot ball

It feel sort of funny" said the
Williamsport, Pa, youth. '"I really

Central Quartet Stars.

IT IS no discredit to Tech that it
places only two men on The Stars
all-high team. Rather it would seem
to indicate that Tech functioned i'm
pressively as a team, but only Johnny
Williamson, 135-pound mixture of
Fred Astaire and dynamite, in the
backfield, and Jim King, end, were in
dividually brilliant enough to warrant
selection. But Tech, with seven play
ers picked. dominates the second all
star team.
Central, with four crack players,
none of whom were involved in the
clique which disrupted the team, domi-
mates the mythical eleven, while West
ern places three men and Eastern two.
Williamson, Len Weinstein of West
ern; Al Kidwell of Eastern and Bill
Wooten of Central, comprise the ball
carrying quartet, with syn1pathizing
nod to Jack Belote of Tech and Nor
ris Snead of Western.
Williamson either directly or indi-
rectly accounted for every Tech score
in the series. A shifty broken-f1eld
runner, Johnny snagged passes with
molasses-tipped fingers, as evidenced
by the pay-off heave he received to
trim Central. His 72-yard return of a
punt for touchdown against Roose-
welt was one Of the high lights of the
year.

Weinstein Slick Back.

,WE1NsTE1N is rated by two oppos-
ing coaches as the finest back
in the series. His cool, accurate pass
ing and Furnishing line cracking played
an important part in Westerns rise.
Kidwell perhaps was the smoothest
defensive back His overabundance
of courage despite overwhelming odds,
plus his consistent ground-gaining
ability, stamped him as al-high tai
ent. Kidwell, making about one-third
of the tackles in the Tech fray, largely
was responsible for that tie.
Wooten's steady brand of play
proved heartening to Central followers,
and his southpaw passing, as well as
his booting ability, irritated his foes
considerably.
Jim Farquharson of Western and
Jim King of Tech gain the end berths,
shading Johnny Pistolas and Sam Fox
of Central in all-round ability. Both
were stalwart defensive cogs in addi-
ton to rendering valuable aid in their
respective teams attack.
Swank, Cramer Standous.
Johnny SWANK and Hugh Cramer,
both of Central, were the outstand-
ing tackles, with Joe oehman Of Tech
and Phil Crabbe of Western vir-
tually on a par with either of them.
Swank, however. opened wide gaps
on plays directed over his tackle and
was nearly as effective as concrete on
defense, swhile Cramer's defensive play
approached perfection.
Charley Jones of Central gains
guard berth for the second consecu-
tive season, although his blocking
and tackling suffers by comparison
with his play last year. Biff Oliphant,
rugged Western star, cops the other
assignment over Ivy Belote OF Tech
and Bob Stang Of Eastern.
Bill Kemp, Eastern's scrappy CEN
ter, is awarded the snapper-back post
by wide margin. He was the spark
plug of the Eastern line and out
unanswered Frank Hodge Of Central
and Roddy Clay Of Tech to grab the
hub position.
