BEMIDJI PIONEER OFFICE Phone 31 Bemidji, Minn GOVERNMENT ISSUES NEW STAMPED ENVELOPE A new stamped envelope with an embossed postage stamp is about to be issued by Uncle Sam. A supply will be received at the Bemidji office at an early date, according to a bul- letin received from Washington to- day. The new stamp is printed in red ink and is in the form of a circle. In the center is embossed the head of George Washington in profile look- ing to the left. The sides and up- per portions of the border bear the words “United States postage” in white capital letters. The old em- bossing dies will be entirely re- placed by the new ones as soon as possible. BELIEVED STAMP ROBBERS WORK FROM CHICAGO BASE Chicago, Ill., Jan. 26.—Federal agents here and at Indianapolis and | St. Paul believe that the clever band of robbers who are specializing on |negotiable revenue stamps are oper- ating within this city as their base. The robbers doubtless have a “fence” here who gets a large share of the profits in return for disposing of the second hand stamps. At St. Paul the -|thieves got $900,000 in stamps and at Evansville the booty was worth $15,000.

It is the first consid- eration in placing a value on new lands. It is first mentioned when old farms are sold. It is the first problem that confronts the beginner as well as the ex- pert who takes up the cultiva- tion"of new crops on new fields. It is first in a list of questions asked by those seeking help in farming. The solution of the fer- tility problem makes many other problems comparatively easy to solve. The quick and easy way to get fertility is to buy it. It can be had in bags in the form of com- mercial fertilizers or by the car- load in the form of animal manure. | But tbis method of fertilization requires cash-capital and does not fulfill all the needs of the land. Since we have learned that a fertile soil is a_mixture of mineral and vegetable sub- stance, .teenfing with germ life. fermenting with innumerable minute plants and chemical changes. we have learned that a soll needs more than mere min- eral plant foods to enable it to grow the maximum crops. It has long been known that legumes and green manures are beneficial to soils, but only re- cently have we learned to use these green manures to bulld a sofl up permanently -and to keep it up at the Iowest cost. 4‘0*04’*%-l-'l“l"l"I'Q-l-*inlr-tulnl'**t****fié*%i*-}%*&***** iflbé"‘l“l"***%**(fllfllt Pay-Up Week, a business stimu- || BEMIDJI BUSINESS DIRECTORY CLASSIFIED ALPHABETICALLY X | AT MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS Wholesale and Retail Pianos, Organs *and Sewing Machines. 117 Third St. Bem{dji.
