LIMITED One Way to Do It Since Red Lake fish are to be placed on sale in Bemidji, it ought to be easy for some of those tourists who come here every year to go home again and tell of the great big fishes they caught up here. And then, also, if a fellow wants to go out for an afternoon, he can order a few fish and then take them home after his spree and tell his wife he has been fishing. —Simple, Isn’t It?— Safety First One thing about the “Little Cor- poral” coming to the land clearing demonstration instead of Governor Preus is that Louis ought to be used to explosions after presiding over the state senate during the last ses- sion. And then he is close enough to the ground so he’s not liable to get hit with any flying stumps. —Saving Governor Material— Just a Prediction It has been predicted by “one of the men about town” that, if skirts keep getting shorter, the men will soon be able to hold their heads up —Short Men, at Least— Picturesk Ancient History The above picture is a reproduc- tion of Robinson Crusoe on Treasure Island, at least we are under the im- presgion that it is something of that nature. —Today Is Friday— i Advance Information ‘ What you do to honor the dead on| Memorial Day doesn’t only help the; one who has passed on, but it also| gives the fellow that’s still here an| idea of what you might think of him after he’s gone. —Who Wants to Go?— ’ The Speech-Maker We didn’t hear any of them, but| judging from what we heard con- cerning the talks delivered at the land clearing demonstrations today, they might have been called stump speeches. —Stump the Leader— | True Optimism ! A truc optimist may be defined as the fellow who is grateful for small| favors and even admits that a cold in the head is better than nothing at all. Maybe he’s lucky if he has any head at all. —With a Cold in It— Do You Blame Them? A Sioux City (Iowa) judge kindly (and legally) allowed a rich defend- ant, being tried on an embezzlement charge, to curl a wicked lip around a | glass of whiskey with tantalizing frequency during the trial. A ma- jority of the audience expressed | |ing thq first prize. MARKETS HIDES Cow hides, No. 1... Bull hides, No. 1. Kipp hides, No. 1, Ib. Calf skins, No. 1, 1 Deacons, each .. Horse hides, large.

Bemidji GIVES YEAR—ROUND TRACTOR SERVICE LOWING is the first job you expect a tractor to handle but plowing is only part of the farmer’s work and the tractor must do a lot of other jobs equally as hard and just as important to your profits at the season’s end. Year-’round use, adaptability to any and all jobs un-. der all sorts of conditions and in any weather, steady, de- pendable power—these are the things a tractor must give you, the things you have a right to expect. The Cletrac plows an acre an hour—10 acres a day— and does it on less'than two gallons of kerosene per acre. ‘And it does such a thorough job of pulverization, travel- ing at 31% miles an hour, that it saves a lot of time and effort on the fitting operations. . Once over Cletrac plowed ground with a disc, and spike tooth or cultipacker hitched tandem makes a per- fect seed bed. Broad metal tracks carry the Cletrac over the top of the soft soil without slipping or digging.in, and paths behind its light, sure Then the Cletrac does the seeding, cultivating, hay making, harvesting, silo filling and threshing; cleans up the wood lot, saws the logs, keeps your road open in win- ter and crowns it up in the spring, spreads manure and _doés any other heavy hauling, even clears out the stock pond and stretches hog fence between the busy seasons. - It is up and ready every day that you have work to do, replacing three teams easily, saving their high-priced feed and labor required to keep them fit and at work, doing the work faster and better and at a much lower cost. Cletrac farming means power farming the whole year ’round, not the use of the tractor for a few jobs but for all the farm work. ‘And farm labor is not a problem with His boy can do the work of two men and three teams with the Cletrac furnishing the power.
