AS is we'll known, Russia is already an

have developed, Great Britain, like
wise, practically if not literally speak

itself with France, and these two pow

Horse Vaccination Is
Best If Done In Nav

Many farmers are wondering about
vaccinating horses for sleeping sick
ness and how effective the vaccine
is, according to Max McMillin, county
agent.
A new vaccine for horse sleeping
sickness was put out last summer
and used rather extensively in GER
tain territories and DR.. Cotton, head
of the State Livestock Sanitary Board,
says this new chick embryo is very
effective and produces an immunity
which will last during one season.
This new type of vaccine is made
from chick embryo and is prepared
only in laboratories licensed by the
U. S. Department of Agriculture,
Bureau of Animal Husbandry. Two
doses of vaccine administered by the
veterinarian seven to ten days apart
is reported to assure a high degree
of immunity during the summer and
fall when most losses occur.
1t is impossible to say how wide
spread the disease will be in the
county this year, but farmers who
are going to vaccinate should do so
in May. County Agent Max McMil-
lin says that if farmers want to vac
cinate and will 60 together with
their neighbors so that there are 80
horses or more to be vaccinated,
they can secure rate of So head
which covers both doses of vaccine.

Farmers Will
Get Parity Pay
For Year 1889
Congress Eliminates AAA
Parity Payments for the
Coming Year.

Elimination of AAA parity pay
ments by the United States House
of Representatives from the 1910 ap-
preparation for the Department of
Agriculture will have no effect on
payments this year, according to in
formation given today by Melvin An
derson, chairman of the Pine County
Agricultural Conservation committee
Mr.. Anderson said, "Pine county
farmers eligible to receive parity pay
ments in 1899 on the normal produc-
ton of their acreage allotments are
assured of payments this year. At the
last session of Congress an appropria-
ton of S212,000,000 was made under
the Price Adjustment Act of 1888
This money must be used in making
parity payments to producers who
planted within their wheat, corn, cot
ton, rice and tobacco allotments. Par
ity payments in 1889 will be made
from this appropriation"
The action of the House of Rep
resentatives, taking parity payments
from the agricultural appropriation
bill, affects parity payments only for
1910. However, $500,0O0,0O0 were
appropriated for soil conservation
payments next year. The House bill
is now being considered by the Senate.

Potato Men Hear
University Expert

R. c. Rose, potato specialist from
University Farm, discussed potato
problems with IS potato growers at
Finlayson on Tuesday, April IL, in
the forenoon, and also talked to a
group at Cloverdale in the afternoon,
according to County Agent Max Nc
Millin who arranged the meeting.
Mr.. Rose warned potato growers
to prepare for late blight this year
as the disease appeared in Mime
sofa last fall and caused much dam
age. He said the disease will appear
earlier in Minnesota this year as the
disease is now present. This disease
can be prevented by spraying four
times or more with Bordeaux mix
ture during the growing season. This
spray is not very expensive, and it
is the same spray that is used to
control flea beetles and leafhoppers
which cut the yield of potatoes very
considerably.
Mr.. Rose recommended a new yell
low oxide treatment which is sold
in Minnesota under the trade name
of Cinnex 90 This treatment is not
injurious to potatoes which have
sprouted and is an instant treatment.
This new material is also inexpensive,
costing around 1c to 1hc a bushel
for treatment.

|D-Ball League Is

Six Teams Make up Tenta-

This section of Pine county will

it is seen by action taken by a group
of interested players and fans Tues
day night in Sandstone. Six teams
temporarily make up the League with

Askov, Finlayson, Friesland, Prison
Guards, and two teams from Sand

A previous meeting had started
the ball to rolling" but the finishing
touches were given Tuesday night
The name of the new organization is
Twilight D-Ball League, and the ap-
propriateness of its name is seen in
the fact that the schedule will be
played at 6:15 p. m. each Monday
between and including the dates OF
May Is and July %. A practice
game will be played by each team on
Monday evening, May 8, and the
same pairings will start the official

800 Carloads OF
|Rutabagas Have
Been Shipped
Average Price of $l2 per
Ton Has Been Paid Pro-
ducers.

Askov's buyers of rutabagas re-
port that the season is practically
ended-there are possibly few scat
tered tons left which will be shipped
via trucks.
It is interesting to note that the
waxed rutabaga is now selling better
than the plain. Waxing rutabagas
was an experiment only three years
ago, yet this season most of the trade
wanted the waxed baga; the reason
of course is that the Waxed baga will
keep nice and fresh for an indefinite
period whereas the plain baga shrivels
up after being on the market only
a few days.
No definite figures are available on
the industry anymore on account of
the number that 60 out via truck,
but conservative estimate is that
there has been shipped from this
community this season 125 carloads
of plain bagas and $50 carloads of
waxed. This is considered an average
crop. Past crops have been as low
as 200 carloads and as high as 900.
Although there are large num-
Der of trucks taking bagas to nearby
points a large majority of the crop
still goes via railroad to the south
ern states.
During the past season the price
to the producer has ranged from 81
to $40 per ton and the average price
can likely be stated as S12 per ton.
The bulk of the bagas are now going
out in 50-pound sacks with an aver
age of 500 sacks to the carload. As
Stunning that outside trucks have pur-
chased at least rs carloads, it would
bring the total output up to 800 car
loads, which, at an average price of
SIP per ton, would bring net income
to the producers for the season of
$4,000.

Cattle Follow
The Beef Decline
Steers Mostly Csc Lower;
Hogs Advance l5c to
Csc; Lambs Unchanged.

South ST. Paul, Mimi, April 10,
1899. Total cattle receipts were little
larger than in the same time last
week, but Canadian arrivals in
creased, about rs cars coming in two
days, mostly beef steers. Larger
packer buyers were in favor of a
Csc to SOC decline, but the best they
could do, according to the Federal
State Market News Service was a
full Csc reduction on slaughter steers.
Smaller killers and shipper buyers
supported the market and demand
was relatively good for thin cattle
suitable for boning out purposes, such
as cutter and low cutter cows as
well as sausage bulls. Heifers were
steady to weak, while cows held fully
steady due to scarcity. Vealers lost
Csc to SOC and bulls held steady. The
lower prices for beef cattle were based
on declines reported for dressed beef
products, along with the generally
beariSh sentiment that characterizes
the business structure as a whole at
present Top for the week on slaugh-
ter steers was $1,000 with medium to
good steers largely $500 to $685..
Stocker and feeder cattle held steady,
plain and medium stock steers going
generally at $3.50 to $8.25. Weather
conditions were unfavorable for a
movement of dairy cows, but limited
supplies dictated a steady to weak
trade
Light supplies enabled sellers to
divert the trend in hog prices up
ward, accumulated advances for the
two days measuring 15c and Csc.
This rise just about erased the down.
turns enforced last week and placed
levels at the highest since week be-
fore last. The present undertone,
however, was weak, indicating that
the advance was merely the result
of weather-controlled receipts. Tues
days top rested at $40. Sows
gained 15c to Csc also to sell currently
at $6.1O. Pigs were Csc higher.
Steady prices were paid for this
weeks very short crop of sheep and
lambs. Good and choice wooded
lambs earned $9.75 to $1,000, plain
and medium grades $3.50 to $3.50.
Good and choice 81 pound clipped
lambs scored $500. Good and choice
wooded ewes were eligible at $5.25
to $6.25. Native feeding lambs turned
at $3.50 to $3.50.
