How Good Yields of Clover Have Been '] laws regarding fruit ‘trees. etc. Such Secured In a New York County. “When County Agent Lacy began work in Dutchess county, N. Y., he found the county almost destltute of leguminous crops,” reads a recent rec- ord in the files of the United States de- partment of agriculture. *Red clover was the only one with which the farm- ers were familiar, and they had failed so frequently in attempting to grow it that there was much discouragement. Repeated trials with alfalfa had met with ‘almost uniform failure. Protein was purchased in the form of concen- trates. “The obvious need was home grown protein, and to secure it cheap lime and information in regard to growing vari- ous legumes were necessary. Ground limestone was being offered for sale in the county as high as $8 a ton, but very little was used at that price. “The county agent discovered where lime could be bought cheaply enough, but the freight rates were more than the cost of the lime. After some nego- tiations an adjustment was secured from the railroads so that finely pul- verized limestone could be delivered to nearly every station in the county at $2.50 a ton or less. “As a result, good yields of clover have been secured this year wherever lime has been used. The successiul growth of clover and other legumes is a matter of utmost importance to the farmers of Dutchess county.” Farm Club Movement In Arkansas. Arkansas has taken up the farm club movement in serious earnest, says the Farm Progress. This is one of the greatest movements in America today | and deserves to succeed. We have |p heard it said that the farmer is being “clubbed to death.” Don’t you believe it, It is a fact that the vast majority of American farmers have been nei- ther hurt nor helped by the club move- ment, for the very good reason that the clubs have never touched them or thelr work. They have stayed out when they might have come in. Arkansas advocates of the club idea are hoping that 15,000 boys and girls will have joined the clubs in that state by the end of next year. There are clubs in plenty. It is easy to organize a ‘“corn club” if you are interested in corn, or a “pig” or a “peanut club” if those meet your liking better. There are ‘“cotton clubs,” too, in great num- bers, and for the farm girls there are “tomato clubs” and “bread -clubs,” “sewing clubs” and “poultry clubs.” Give the boys an acre of corn ground and a pig and the girls two sittings of good eggs and a tenth of an acre for tomatoes. Get into touch with the people at the head of the club work in your state, no matter in what state you live in. @O@@@@@@@@l;é@@@@@ K ©® SIDE LINES AND WOMEN- @ FOLK. & ® As I 1s the average farmer @ “kee zarden on the gro- & cery shelf" he sells everything > wholesale and buys everything Side lines, such as can- preserving, making apple re profitable where the ise enough to see that ® of his household get b ¢+ help with their ® work.

Seed Readily Carrxed Everywhere by’ the Wind—Increase Amazingly. Farmers striving to Lkeep their lands practically ciean need a law compelling each one to take care of the most trou- blesome weeds. Legislation is espe- cially needed to prevent the growing and spreading of all weeds, the seed of which is readily carried everywhere by the wird. This applies particular- ly to wild carrot. devil’'s paint brush. etc. In some localities fields are prac- tically abandoned to weeds. Pastures often produce many noxious plants and fence rows abound with brush and weeds. If such weeds could be kept in check when grown. only a moderate damage would be done. but if they are not destroyed or mowed off the wind often scatters their seed widely. In recent years in many sections weedss have increased amazingly, and it is now impossible for any farmer alone to maintain a clean farm. Many geod farmers do not try any longer to keep weeds in check, lLiecause others pay no attention to the matter. A law exists in some states and is quite ger- erally enforced. requiring all noxious weeds along the highway to be cut twice annually. 1f such a law could be extended to the fields it would help matters materially. although a much move stringent law is desired. Such a law would make it possible ‘or careful farmers to raise clean seed. Hoth for home use and for sale to other farmers. This- in grass seed alone would soon result in a great improve- ment. Less weed seed would be sown. thereby decreasing the abundant crop. Legislation ‘affecting the care of -a man’s farm and the crops he grows may be difficult to enforce. but it is no more so than some of the existing THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER TONE The Victrola tone is a wonderful thing. It is the tone of pure reality —throbbing with life and power---and it is exclusive with the Victrola. Besides this true-to-life tone. the Victrola with its system of changeable needles and modlfylng doors enables you toinstantly meet every acoustic con- dition without in the least degree changing the artist’s interpretation. These distinguishing points of superiority are only two important features that demonstrate the perfection of every detail in the Victrola, and make these patented Victrola features of interest to every one. Come and see these patented Victrola features Tapering Tone Arm—with its exact taper and perfectly smooth bore, which is scientifically calculated and constructed to conform to the expanding sound waves created by the sound-box. “‘Goose-neck’. Sound-box Tube—tke flexible metal connection between the sound-box and tapering tone arm, which enables theVictor Needle to follow the record grooves with unerring accuracy. Concealed Sounding-boards and Amplifying Cempartment of Wood—provide the very limit of area of vibrating surface and sound amplifying compartment, so absolutely essential to an exact and pure tone reproduction. may be opened wide thereby giving the tone in its fullest volume; or doors may be set at any degree graduating the volume of tone to eexactly suit every requirement. Closed tight the volume is reduced to a minimum and when not in use the interior-is fully protected. e Victor System of Changeable Needles—a perfect x‘eproduc ion is possible only wnth a perfect point—therefore a new needie for each record is the only positive assurance of a perfect point. You also have your choice of full tone, half tone or further modlf(catnon w:rh the fibre needle.
