MiS PAPER REPRESENTED FOR FOREIGN ADVERTISING BY THE GENERAL OFFICES NEW YORK AND CHICAGO BRANCHES (N ALL THE PRINCIPAL CITIEY Our Slogan: “Bemidji 25,000 Population in 1925” We can continue to eat off the red table cloth. The chances are that King Alfonso will not visit us this summer. The Germans claim to be licking the Allies, but then the Germans are the ones talking. When the story is different likewise the source. Be neutral. Two years ago tailors prescribed accordeon pleated coats for the young men, to be followed the year follow- ing with lace on the trousers, but it seems that the war has put a “ki- bosh” on the lace. The Bemidji police have made but one arrest during the past month and this for intoxication. But where can you get ‘“booze” in Bemidji? Some- thiug rotten in “Denmark.” Maybe the Indian agents have quit gather- ing it. Eiaia— Who Bears the Burden? Farmers have acquired the habit of assuming that they are a perse- cuted and ill-treated class of indus- trial operators. They feel that they are the bearers of the tax burdens. In Wisconsin, however, the farmer is generously treated and has good rea- son to cheer up. He will be inter- ested to observe that from the point of state property valuation the urbun properties represent forty-six per cent, or a little LESS than half of the property value of the state, while the farms represent fifty-four or a little MORE than half of the state property value. Yet in view of this division the total tax in Wisconsin on the farm lands for 1914 was $17,- 402,770.45 while the taxes from city property were $24,736,452.59. .In other words, while the farmers have more than one-half of the property of the state, the city property hold- ers pay nearly fifty per cent more of all taxes than do the farmers. The average tax rate on every dollar of rural property is .01004. while the average tax rate on every dollar of city property in Wisconsin is .01648. Al of which merely proves that it is the farmer and not the city fellow who is favored, and the city fellow and not the farmer who has the first right to kick.—Wisconsin Journal.

County option and legalized prize fighting.—St. Cloud Times. One class of business men who hail with delight the passage of the county option law, are the laundry- men. Their keenest competitor, the family washub, is being put out of business.—Walker Pilot. A telephone bill was passed by the last legislature, we supposed in the interest of the people, but what we have seen of its workings makes us believe that it was passed to favor the telephone companies. In manycases the farmers’ rates will be inereased @ great deal. The new law is lable to- start something.—Pine County ‘Courier. There are thousands of young men with moderate amounts of capital now seeking homes. Some of these go south. Some go to Canada. Some 80 to the semi-arid regions to make the gamble of dry farming.

At this stage the maximum protein and dry matter are present, the leaves are still ble exposure to the weather and loss of leaves. Tt should not be allowed to become too dry in the windrow and should be cured in the shock. The second crop oi iclover may -be -cut for hay, pastured or allowed to mature for seed. If a seed crop is to be harvested it should be cut when nearly all of the heads have turned brown or black. The mower, self rake reaper or binder may be used to cut the crop. When the mower Is used the hay should be raked and bunched while damp to prevent | shattering. Tt should not be tied ir bundles when the binder is used.
