, was pointed out that this clause
would apply to old age assistance
recipients.
Would Change System
Under the resolution Traut ask
ed that the county board be con.
stituted as the welfare board and
have full control of expenditures.
Traut's resolution concluded by
adding that the board of commits
sioners feel that a higher levy on
property is not advisable to match
state and federal funds and that
legislation must make other pro-
visions for such payment. The res
olution then asked that further
payments be withheld until finan-
cial aid is obtained or an agree
ment for a more economical pro-
gram is reached.
Members Of the county board
heatedly discussed the resolution
but no motion for adoption of the
resolution was made. Further dis
cussion on the resolution was ex-
pected to come before the board
this afternoon.
Following the appearance of
Bemis before the county board this
morning when the welfare situa-
ton was pointed out Traut said he
felt now was the time for show
down on the entire situation.
Stearns county cannot stand the
expense. Efforts were to be made
this afternoon to contact Governor
Harold Stassen and make arrange
ments for an appointment to dis
cuss the entire situation with him.
Funds Exhausted
In the meantime Bemis warned
the county board that unless funds
were made available to the welfare
board by Tuesday there would be
no need for that group to meet as
they would be unable to pay out
standing bills.
Bemis said that an emergency ex-
lists in the welfare department and
the county board must take action
to meet that emergency.
It was pointed out at the meet
ing Of the county commissioners
that money could be obtained from
the state for temporary purposes to
meet the emergency at a compare
lively small rate Of interest.
No solution to the emergency was
presented at the meeting Of the
board last Thursday.-St. Cloud

SUGGESTS SEEDING
TOMATOES IN FIELD
Lower Cost Will Offset
Smaller Yields.
BY w. A. HUELSEN

Seeding tomatoes directly in the
field thus eliminating the expense
of transplanting has considerable
commercial promise, according to
the college Of agriculture, Univer-
sity of Illinois, Urbana.
Experiments conducted by the ag-
ricultural college last year compar-
ing direct seeding with transplant
ing in the usual way showed only
a slight increase in yields in favor
of the transplanted tomatoes. How
ever, this advantage is more than
compensated by the lower cost of
direct seeding.
Interplanting tomatoes with field
corn is another new and novel
method of growing tomatoes,
method that protects the tomato
fruits from sun scald In expert
ments conducted at Urbana by the
college of agriculture, tomatoes
planted the usal way in 1888 pro-
duced a total of 76 tons an acre.
The interplanted tomatoes produced
At tons of tomatoes and SIS bushels
of shelled corn an acre. The
acre income was $3.50 for the to-
matoes planted in the usual way
and $81 so for the interplanted acre,
valueing corn at As cents bushel.
Additional tests indicate the i'm
portance of early planting. Toma-
toes planted on May II produced 10
tons an acre, but when setting was
delayed until June 5, the yields
dropped to four and one-half tons
an acre. Still later paintings re-
duced the yields further.

Good Roughness Is Aid
In Developing Rations

Roughage of good quality helps to
build good rations for all kinds of
stock Pasture and good legume
hay are roughages providing practi-
cal and economical sources of vita
Minis and protein to improve grain
rations.
A study made recently by the
United States department of agricul-
ture showed that pasture averaged
nearly one-third of the nutrients con-
sumed by milk cows during the
year, whereas the cost of the pas
ture was only one-seventh of the to-
tai feed cost.
Legumes make the most nourish-
ing pasture and also the most nu-
tritious hay. Most farmers had a
generous supply of legume hay for
winter feeding and live stock is re-
ported to have thrived unusually
we'll On many farms the brood sows
have had the alfalfa hay which
they need to put pep into little pigs.
Calves have been wintered cheaply
and with good gains, largely be-
cause good legume hay was a big
part of the feed. Plentiful pasture
favors continued success with the
stock.
