Mr. McDonnel finds dynamite cheaper than man and horse power—even at the higher price. If you are going to use dynamite this spring you should place your order as early as possible as prices may go higher. " Pay-Up Week is a progressive pro- position. Held in Bemidji Feb. 21- 26.

In time, of course, we will read of the high cost of breathing. “Are we civilized?” inquires the Chicago Tribune. We are—but can’t say as to the Chi. Trib. Time works wonders. It may even yet unearth a candidate or two for the vice presidency. General Villa has been killed so many times we can’t see why the cuss don’t stay dead. A kid on a corner can see more in five minutes than an adult can discover in an hour of rubberneck- ing. Military preparedness is uppermost in the public eye, but the old eye is doing a great deal of blinking. Don’t be at all backwards about dropping in and paying up. We'll take and shake as long as our old hand holds out. Of course, madame, you did not raise your son to be a soldier. Your neighbor’s son should be the one to protect you from the ruthless hand of the invader when he comes. Poverty drives to drink and drink drives to poverty, and between the two there’s heck to pay. Of course your excessive modesty would prevent your answering the question, but we would really like to know the name of the smartest man in this community. Have you told your congressman what you think on the subject of na- tional preparedness. He don’t want to hear from you, of course, but it would be just as well to let him hear just the same. Talk Pay-Up with your neighbors. Bemidji Pay-Up Week, Feb. 21-26. | N. E. GIVEN, Manager Published Weekly MACHINERY EXHIBIT Farmers Urged to Buy Before Price Advances—Going Up March 1. We are getting our implement show room in shape to show goods to cus- tomers. Owing to the advance in price of steel and timber, practically everything in th> implement line will advance March 1, and our prices will have to follow.

USE MONEY SAVERS. Herman Fenske of the town of Be- midji bcught a buttermaker from us this week. He believes in doing all work possible with machinery as it is easier and saves time. Butter makers, washing machines, gasoline engines, DeLaval cream sep- arators are great time and labor savers. BUSH WASH WRINGER Robert Schultz, one of our farmer friends, buys a Bicycle Ball Bearing wringer and stand this week. They run easier and wring better than the ordinary wringers, besides they do not break buttons. Bemidji Pay-Up Week, Feb. 21-26. Nick Nelson of Maltby has a good cow for sale.

Great Care Should Be Exercised In the Purchase of Seeds. Jersey Wakefield has been the leader among early cabbages for more than fifty years, writes R. L. Watts in the Oountry Gentleman.

It is very early, medium in size, pointed and solid. The heads are valuable for salad purposes. Charleston Wakefield attains mar- Spring that we must crowd out every piece of winter goods to makeé room for them.

It is lar- ger in size and requires slightly more space in the row. If the market does not demand estreme earliness, the Charleston type’ will' he found more profitable than the Jersey Wakefleld, especially if the crop is sold by the crate or barrel : ket is a compara- tively new variety that is attracting much attention amoug commereial growers It comes a few days later than Jersey Wakefield, but it possesses merits that, in the minds of some gar- deners, more than overbalance this dis- advantage. The heads average at least a third larger than Jersey Wakefleld. The spread of the outside leaves is less, so that closer planting may be prac- ticed. The heads are roundish instead of pointed and they are very solld when properly matured. They also carry better in transportation than the ‘Wakefleld types. A strong point in favor of Copen- hagen Market is its uniformity in time of heading, which permits the ground to be cleared of the cabbage early in A very successful trucker in western Pennsylvania, who grows about 20,000 early cabbages annually, now plants no other variety. Early Summer is a well known va- rlety. It ripens with Charleston Wake- fleld or perhaps a few days later. The heads are flat and fairly solid. Succession, 8 midsummer variety, is regarded by many as the best bred cabbage in America. It usually runs remarkably uniform in type. The heads are large and solid at maturity. Seed sown the 1st of February should produce ripe cabbage in any part of the north before the 1st of August. ‘Whatever the variety selected, the utmost care should be exercised in buy- Ing seed. for there is marked variation in the strains of different varieties. Our goods for Spring in all lines were bought : earl and show very few advances---practically lasgt' year’g ‘ prices. - Come and let us show you the new things at the Bazaar Store A glance at the want column may help you sell it.
