* BETTER PROTECTION ‘ made possible by the $85,000 annual ‘news-fram Crete. PAGE EIGHT f " FROM FIRES IS SEEN Mofe effective forest fire preven- tion during the next two years is fund provided by the legislature, Ww. T. Cox, state forester, says. It was explained that more than $63,000 a year is made available, compared with the previous $38,000 for the ‘work. E Forester Cox sald the increased funds will enable the forestry de- partment to maintain more effective gystems of patrol and general police owork and also to better regulate burning of logging slash and better inspect conditions along railroads. The forestry board asked for $640,- Q00 for the two-year period, assert-\ ing that the sum was necessary to fn- sure a reagonable measure of pro- tection against disasters like that last fall in the Moose Lake district. The appropriation of $85,000 a year just voted includes $10,000 for ‘reforestration and $12,000 for office and traveling expenses, part of which goees to protective work. Apprecia- tion of the assistance given the for- estry board toward securing larger funds was expressed vy the forester. | GET GOOD SEED TO GET GOOD LAWN A good lawn depends in a large measure on the quality of seed used, eays R. C. Dahlberg, State Seed Lab- oratory, University Farm, St. Paul. Large quantities of very low grade seed are on the market—seed which under the most favorable conditions ‘would not produce a lawn of which any one could be proud. This.low grade seed is put up in packages, usually weighing less than a pound, and sold“t'a price so low as to make it appear a bargain. One brand of such g,haapnad was found to contain only 8 per cent of seed. The remain- .der was chaff. Two or three other drands were found to contain only about 50 per cent of seed. Such seed though apparently cheap, is in reality expensive. frequently contain in quantity seeds which are not desirable, as timothy, meadow grass, and Italian rye grass. If a whole lawn is to be newly seeded, it is probably advisable to buy the pure seed and mix it at home. A very satisfactory mixture ts made of Kentucky bluegrass, 80 per cent; redtop, 10 per cent; white clover, 10 per cent. One-half pound of this mixture to the square rod will be enough. On slopes where the soil is likely to wash and where seed rather than sod is used, it is advis- able to decrease the bluegrass 10 per cent and replace with perennial rye grass. The earlier the grass is plant- ed the better, Quips Which Tickle Travelers, Nature seems occasionally to have been In an impish mood of jocularity when she was about her work of Such cheap mixtures also |: FOR SALE—Highly improved 10 FOR SALE—80 acre improved form; FOR TRADE—Have 40 acres of land in Port Hope township, 1 would like to trade for cottage and one acre in Bemidji.
