S SR A 4 FARMERS' CLUB BUYS BUL (By Bueford M. Gile.) Netherland Korndyke Johanna re- cently moved from Redwood Falls to Bemidji and is now located on the farm of Peter Narum. Netherland Korndyke Johanna is a Holstein bull and has become the property of the Equitable Farmers’ club of Frohn| township. This club has borrowed money at the bank and will pay for the bull out of service fees. He is a fine, big groethy fellow, evenly marked, about half black and white, and is sixteen months old. His sire is a son of Earl Korndyke Dekol, whose dame gave 28 pounds of butter fat in one week under the semi-official test. Bell Korndyke is also behind this bull on the dame’s side, also the bull, Sir Johanna Clothile, who has daughters that have made nearly 900 pounds of but- ter in one year. The whole neighborhood will use this bull. They can afford to keep one bull well ‘and it will be much cheaper and better for them than it would be to keep in the community three or four scrub bulls. The club borrowed the money and turned it over to the agricultural de- partment of the high school with the instructions to buy -a bull. This was done and the department is ready to be of like service to any other com- munity that might desire it. PEACE WILL BRING JOY TO MEN IN TRENCHES o (Continued from Paxe 1.) in some nearby trees. They were shooting at us and I felt much better about killing them than I did about the single German. The Machine Gun. And then later again in the bicycle seat of the machine gun and at the rate of 700 shots a 'minute I fired at advancing columns of Germans in close formations and watched them drop anfl squirm. They were com- ing to Kkill if they could. If I failed to kill them, I failed under the rules of the war game. A terrible sense of responsibility filled me; the rattle of that gun was sweeter and grander to me than the hallelujahs. I knew what it meant to be drunk with kill- ing. Other machine guns were go- ing, too, but I felt at the time as if mine was the only one. The forma- tion was smashed, the dead and wounded strewing the hillside. But that night after I had crawled into my mudhole hut to sleep I did not dare to think of all the women and children whose hearts had been hit by that machine gun fire. I had joined the French foreign legion ex- pecting to be made a member of the flying corps. Instead I had found my way to the trenches where kill- ing was our only job, brutal out and out killing, with little science and less chivalry. ‘When my chance came I got out. Of the!1,500 men I had started out with only 385 remained and we had been in the trenches only 47 days. T'quit because it was a living hell. Everybody else would have quit, too. 1 know they would. I lived with them and slept and ate with them and talked with them and know they would ‘all have quit, if they could. And so would every other man in all the great armies in this great war. ‘When the word runs along the line some happy day when the war is over I don’t want to have to write the story of how the men felt..Only God will be able to measure the joy, no human being will be able to tell it. NO DOUBT. ABOUT THE BEST SELLER During the last few years there has been much talk of “best sellers.” Publishers have vied with each other to enlist writers whose works have at one time or another reached the head of the list. The popular novel that sells up into the thousands and continues in demand is known as a ““best seller,” but comparatively few of the many reach this enviable po- sition. There is. one book, however, that has been a “best seller” ‘for the past three hundred years. This is what AR R SOOI JORRRSNOR S Y NEEDS OF SOME CROPS. Beans and peas, being legumes, do not require very heavy applications of nitrogen. About 500 pounds an acre of a 2810 mixture are usually suffi- clent. : Tomatoes, eggplants and peppers must not be supplied with an over- abundance of free nitrogen for the same reason. Potash should be nigh. With the cucurbits also an e nitrogen is to be avoided.

Applications of com- mercial fertilizer need not exceed 500 to 1,000 pounds. Onions respond readily to heavy ap- plications of complete fertilizers. Root crops are nowhere grown to better advantage than on heavily ma- nured market garden soils. Hay Feeding. A German experiment station has béen feeding hay iwhich has been stored for from one to three years to find if its digestibility has been influ- enced by storage. The conclusion ar- rived at was that hay was just as di- gestible after storing as before stor- ing, and that the chief loss was a me- chanlcal loss due to dropping of the leaves. Experiments were made both Larry ) I-P booklets. see them at the with meadow hay and clover hay that had been stored in the loft.
