Expect 5000 Farmers
To Line Up For
Coming Year
WARNING ON SEED
Urged To Watch For
Seed That Doesn't
Meet Standards

Sign-up for the 1889 agricultural
conservation program has taken
splendid strides in Stearns county.
In the ten days that sign-up meet
ings were held at distant points
in the county, more than 2400 ap-
plications were accepted. Since that
time additional numbers have been
taken at the county agents office,
st. Cloud. Because of blocked roads
and extremely cold weather, the
county agents office under whose
charge the sign-up meetings are
held have scheduled an additional
four days of time at which farm
ers can make application for par
ticipation in the new program. The
schedule of these additional sign
ups is as follows:
Friday, March 3: Sauk Centre,
creamery; Melrose, city hall; Free
port, village hall.
Saturday, March A: Albany, vii
lage hall; Avon, village hall; Hold
ingford, village hall.
Monday, March 8: Belgrade, coun-
Gil room; Richmond, council room;
Paynesville, lower village hall.
Tuesday, March Z: Kimball, viii
lage hall; Fair Haven, town hall.
1t is expected that at the close
of this second series of sign-ups
that will be at least 5000 farms
lined up for the coming year. The
cleanup work in the various town.
ships will then be done by the
community committeeman. 1t is
now definitely certain that the
number Of participating farms in
1899 will be considerably larger
than for any of the previous years.
For the three years 1936-1937-193S
an average of $500 farms in the
county participated in the program.
Because of the fact that the de-
tails of the 1888 program are al
most completely cleaned up, many
farmers have been more willing to
sign up for the coming year. To
date in Stearns county 1904 checks
have been received totalling $379,
s99.27. Only about 500 checks still
remain to be paid.
Farmers who will be buying seed,
especially grass and clover seed,
this spring are urged by the coun-
ty agents office, st. Cloud, to be
on the lookout for seed that doesn't
meet the desirable standard that is
necessary to meet Minnesota laws
and to meet the standards set up
by the better farmers. 1t is well
for farmers to keep the following
details in mind when buying seed:
1. Look for the label on the sack
or container.
2. Read the label. It must have
the important items given. Don't
buy any seed unless it is fully and
properly labeled.
8. Per cent termination. This
should be high.
4. Purity or freedom from trash
and weed seed.
5. Per cent of weed seed and
kinds, if any are of the Creeping
Jenny, Thistle, Quack, etc.
6. Dealers name and address.
Keep the tag for at least a year
after the seed is sown. Mark on
it the date you bought it. This
may be worth a lot If the seed is

Locals Meet Melrose
At New Swanville
Gym Tonight
HEAVY OPENER
Stearns Teams Will
Battle For District
22 Rating

Tonight, Thursday, as four
districts In district 70 get
underway In an elimination
tourney that will shove teams
into district rounds, Sauk Cen
tire meets MelrOse at Swanville.
The game, first session, is call
ed at 7:45 o'clock. Swanville and
Upsala are first round pairings
In q game at 8 o'clock. Pair
ings for the district meet, held
at GlenwoOd March to 10,
win not be announced until Sat
urday.
Lucky" Toftness, dubbed as the
luckiest coach in North Dakota be-
fore he came here last year be-
cause of his unique tournament
records, is hanging heavily onto
the old horse shoe this year. For
that horse shoe hangs precariously
on single game-tonight.
The spotlight falls on this sub
district, paling the light Of the 9TH
er three, with the most classic bat
tie Of the entire tournament prom
ised when a dramatic opening finds
Melrose and Sauk Centre, longtime
traditional rivals, paired tonight.
For Toftness such a setup is
something novel. Tonight he sees q
chance for his record, that includes
28 victory tournament games out
Of 80 starts in tournament play, to
topple. If his team does not reach
the district this season, it is the
first time a Toftness-coached team
did not windup in the district finals.
For the first time he's not rated
as a dark horse, his favorite posi-
ton, from which he can come up
blasting off the biggies and go
on to win before the rest are
awake to the fact. This year his
club is the favored outfit, with all
the pressure directed at them the
entire district can muster.
Strangely enough it was Melrose
who last year, meeting Sauk Cen
tire for the first time as finalists,
added that 28th game to the Toft-
ness tournament victory string.
Now that string is being eaten
away slowly, with Melrose again
the hinging element. For the Sec
ond time in two successive years,
Melrose and Sauk Centre, with no
relations during the year, each
holds the others fate. One Of the
other must be eliminated, must go
into oblivion before the district
rounds get underway.
For Sauk Centre, the defending
champions, the game means one Of
two things. One, a defeat that will
choke all hopes Of regaining the
long-time-in-coming title. Second
ly, victory that will open the path
to road of glory that will depend
on future operations. But a victory
does hold a future; defeat none.
In one of the most dramatic fin
alists this district has ever seen,
Sauk Centre, after Melrose had
made a valiant bid and was as gal
liant in defeat as the locals in vic
tory, edged out Melrose for the title
in a Sudden death" overtime %
to 26, with Jim Pangburn dumping
the winning basket. It was the
