It should be kept over the seat of uneasiness for several days—in obstinate cases, for per- haps a fortnight.” ¢“‘For pain in the back wear an Allcock’s Plaster constantly, re- newing as it wears off. This is invaluable support when the weight on the small of the back becomes heavy and the aching incessant.” BASKETBALL TEAMS WILL PLAY INTERESTING GAME Tonight's Game Will Be One of Most In- teresting of Season---Girls Will Not Play Cass Lake. Interest grows in the basket: ball game which is to be played here this evening and a great many are planning on attending the game. The game played here before was interesting from the start. Though Bemidji won that game, the Park Rapids team has not given up hopes of winning this game tonight. They have prac- ticed considerable the past few weeks and come here prepared to play a very good game. The Bemidji team was never in better practice and will put up one of the best games ever played in this section of the state. The game which was to have been played at Cass Lake to- morrow night has been called off. Owing to the fact that there will be but one game this even- ing it will not be called before 9 o’clock. After the game a pleasant dancing party will be given. Here From Dakota. Rev. J. L. T. Coates, Sunday Schonl missionary and pastor at large of the Minnewaukon Pres- bytery of the Presbyterian church, is here today the guest of Rev. 8. E. P. White. Mr. Coates returned to Devils Lake on the afternoon train. Rev. J. Atwood ig in the city today from Big Falls. He will return this evening. Distrirt Court. The winter term of the Beltra- mi county district court will convene here mnext Tuesday. Thereare several important mat- ters for the grand jury to in- vestigate: and the civil calender shows sixty-nine civil cases on the docket. It is thought the term will be somewhat longer than the past two or three terms. John Graham Will Return. A letter from John Graham says that he intends to return to Bemidji soon. Mr, Graham left last fall for Minot, N, D. Upon his return he will make arrange- ments and will be found at his 1old stand at the Bemidji Meat: Market. INTERESTING LETTER ON “In what way?” asked the officer. “Why, a little while ago I saw GBUWTH m: PH["]U[}TS wriit2n on the board, ‘find the A. J. McGuire, of the Grand Rapids Ex- perimental Station Furnishes Interesting Letter, The yield of farm crops are influenced by three factors: First, the natural conditions of the section of the country in which they are grown. ' Second, the season, and third, the sys- tem of farming under which they are grown. Under normal conditions the crop yield may be taken as a fair index to the productiveness of the country and its adapta- bility to the growing of different kinds of crops, Due to the many inquiries re- garding the yield of different crops in northeastern Minnesota it is deemed advisable to publish a general statement covering the yield of all the crops, instead of treating each crop separately as heretofore. The yield of the different ¢rops grown ou the Experiment farm under normal field conditions during the season of 1906, is as follows: Wheat 20 bushels per acre. Variety—University, 169. Soil —sandy loam. Minured and in potatoes 1905. Oats, 40 bashels per Variety — Improved Soil—Clay Loam. timothy 1905, ; Barley, 19 bushels per acre. Variety—Manschuri. Soil-clay loam. Low and very wet. Peas, 21 bushels per acre. Variety——Canada” Field. Soil— sandy loam. Manured and in peas 1905. Manured lightly in 1906. Hay, 2% tons per_acre, single cutting. Medium r«d clover and timothy. Soil--from clay loam to sandy loam. Most of crop first year cutting. ) Fodder corn from 5 to 10 tons per acre, green weight. (Putin silo.) Spring wet and cold, un- favorable for fodder corn. Some fields were mostly drowned out. Soil varying with different fields from clay to sandy loam. Most of fodder corn ground in meadow (clover and timothy) 1905, Variety of seed—Minne- sota 13. Potatoes, 246 bushels per acre: 984 bushels on four acres, Soil-— Sandy loam. In fodder corn 1905. Manured lightly 1905 and 1906. Variety—Carmen No. 1. A white potato, oval in shape, medium to late in maturing, This variety has yielded highest on the Experiment Farm for 8 years; 70 varieties tested. Stock carrots, 153 toms per acre or 570 bushels. Soil, sandy loam. Inroous 1905. Manured: 1905 and 1906. Variety—Mas- todon Stock Carrot. The above mentioned crops were grown under a system of practical farming and the yields the average of the fields, not of experiment plots. Various varieties of wheat, oats, barley, flax, rye, speltz, millet, etc.,, were grown in ex- periment plots, but the yield of the fields is given as a better comparison of average crops. Crops grown in plots for test of varieties, etc., will be taken up later. The season 1906, while very unfavorable in many respects, was fair asa whole, so that the yield of the different crops with a few exceptions is about an average, acre. Ligono. In clover and —A. J.

Deer River, Minn., March 13. —(Special to Pioneer)—The olG- est son of Paul Wall, of Marcell, recently fellin a well and was drowned. The boy was playing’ near the well, which was a curb, well,. and partially frozen over: with ice. When near the well he ventured too far on the ice and fell in.

Foster, assisted by the best local talent, will give a musical recital atthe city hall Thursday evening, March 21. This promises to be one of the best social entertainments given this season. Mrs. Foster has on several occasions given recitals here which have been highly ap- preciated by the people of Be- midji. The one to be given next Thursday will be up to the usual standard and music loving peo- er or some one that is toocoward- 1y to face me, gives me a slur,” ple should remember to attend this. ARRESTED AT MIZPAH ON CHARGE OF GRAKRD LARCENY Michael Green and Walter Horey Bound Over at Mizpah for Stealing Beef and Afterwards Trying to Dis- pose of the Same.’ Michael Green and Walter Horey, were brought here last evening from Mizpah and will be confined to the Beltrami county jail and will await the action of the Koochiching county grand jury being bound over on a charge of grand larceny. For some time past the T. M. Partridge Lumber company have been annoyed by missing chain lengths, and other articles from their camps near that place and for a while were unable to under- stood who was doing the pil- fering.

Alger, manager of the com- | pany was awakened by two men | who called at the camp and asked jhim if he did not wish to buy |some beef. Mr. Alger who had suspected the men for some time said that he did and told them to weigh it jand bring the beef around and put it in the ware house, While the men were out attend- ing to this, Mr. Alger immedi- ately notified some @f the men of the camp to be ready for their return and upon their return immediately place them under arrest. Wedunesday they were taken before Justice Potter, of Mizpah for a preliminary hearing with the resulf as above stated. They were brought to Bemidji last evening and will be confined in the Beltrami county jail until the convening of the Koochiching county district court, or until suitable bail is given: Additional Local News on the Last Page SPECIAL SHOES O’LEARY & BOWSER Greater Department Store SO The Best of All Shoe Sales You ap- preciated our last shoe sale, for the bargains ‘wWere (XxX- cellent.
