Jf ~~ ~~ r ———— »I ( OpO I® Chalmers 7-Passenger Touring Car —Price $1350 Detroit Unequalled Performance • By Chalmers 7-Passenger—Sets All Motorists Talking Motorists everywhere are talking of the startling feat performed by a Chalmers 7-passenger touring car in Chicago. Something new has been discovered in motor-car achievements. Something never before attempted, never before done by an automobile. To set a mark of 586.8 miles through Chicago’s busy streets was a feat in itself. But to do it all on high gear. To make it a non-stop motor run. To carry four passengers. And to show 14 miles to the gallon of fuel. Adds the cap sheaf of surprise.

When Chalmers started out to attempt the feat they said: “Let (j? us make this complete. Let us omit nothing that can add to the difficulty of performance. Let us leave nothing for the future.” The Contest Board of the American Automobile Association certifies that these statements are true.

PHILOSOPHY OF WALT MASON

It’s most unpleasant to be shot, or slashed up with a sword; when battle rages, loud and hot, the tinhorn man is bored. His neighbors gallop to enlist, all eager for the fray. “I’ll stay at home,” he says, “I wist; I have no wish to slay.’’ And while the war is going on, and brave men sternly fight, he logfs at ease upon his lawn, and sleeps in bed at night. He’s thankful that the stress and strife are far removed ftom him, that he can lead a peaceful life in time’s that are so grim. But when the battles all are done, and peace is here again, and from the scenes of triumphs won return the fighting men, when to their homes the heroes jog, with laurels on each brow —oh, happier a yellow dog than is the slacker now! “From danger’s path I was exempt,” the slacker oft hath said, “but how men view me with contempt—l would that I were dead! I would that I had sought the Scrap, and sailed in. hit or miss; and if they’d shot me off the map, ’twere better far than this!” Ere you succumb to craven fears, to dread of strife and pain, think, think of .all the. future years, and of the world’s disdain!

BARLEY YIELDS.

(National Crop Improvement Service.! “Regarding the best yields' of barley, we will sayithat this is rather a difficult thing, to give because the yield sometimes depends more upon the threshing record. However, the average yield of pedigreed barley of members of the Wisconsin Experiment Association Was in 1913. 31 bushels, 1914; 33.3 bushels, 1915, 37.5 bushels. The yield for 1915 is the average from over 260 members reporting. Some of the highest ones are as follows: 60, 57, 56. 55, 53 and 45 bushels. “It is impossible to state what has been the highest yield in Wisconsin, but I think some of these yields for last year, which was a very good barley season, are quite reasonable, but do not doubt though that there ma y be larger yields than these, but I have no knowledge of them.”—J. J. Garland.

THE QUESTION OF LABOR

Probably the Most Serious Handicap to Put in Maximum Crops This Year Is the Scarcity of Farm Labor. [Natmal Crw laamemst Servlet-} Many a good crop will be ruined because farmers cannot get labor at the right time. There are two times of the year when more labor is absolutely necessary—at seed time and at harvest. While our farmers need men at other times of the year, these are the two crucial periods. As it is to the interest of every person living in this county to produce a bumper crop this year, we must do all we can to help the farmer and perhaps the most important thing we can do. is to find him right help of the right class. There are three classes of farm help, —(1) The regular farm hands who are going to be rather scarce. (?) There are. however, a great many men who work in factories, in wholesale houses, drive teams and other occupations who could possibly be spared during the rush seasons. It is the duty of th" commercial clubs and manufacturers to make a list of these men and offer them for detached service when urgently needed. There is a third class of labor which is very efficient and that is men of affairs who have been raised on farms who wfll volunteer to help the farmers out durinn the rush. This is the greatest work our business men can accept to show their patriotism at this time.

A Report on Rotation of Crops.

fNatior.a! Crw lavrvvMßest Service-: The tenth annual report of the North Dakota Demonstration Farms is ready for distribution. The crops are rotated on these farms. The results indicate that a rotation of crops pays. The average wheat yield was 29% bushels. This wheat was in most cases followed by corn that had been manured. Oats 58bushels, barley 37%, rye 21%: alfalfa 2% tons, per acre. The rotation practiced on each farm is given in the report as well as a detailed account of just how each field was handled. Don’t forget The Democrat’s fancy stationery and office supply department when in need of correspondence cards, stationery, typewriter ribbons and papers, the better grade of lead pencils, ink erasers, etc., etc. 5

BARLEY NEXT TO CORN.

'NrtiMal Crw larMßMt S«ntte*.l Barley has a feeding value next to com. Indeed some feeders place It ahead of corn for pig food and at the present prices, barley will make as much and more profit than wheat. The wheat crop has now “gone to the jury.” We cannot do much more about wheat but we hare two or three weeks yet in order to put all of our acreage remaining into barley. / Barley is more profitable than oats. In fact, very few farmers make any money our of bats under .the best cir ? cumstanCes and very few barley farmers ../ever lose money on barley. There is always the fascination of get ting a fancy price for fancy barley, and although less than one per cent of all grains are used for malting purposes, the additional price which it gives to barley over oats always rngkes money for the farmers. While perhaps one per cent of the grain crop is used in brewing, the loss of feed value is much smaller because fully one half goes back to dairy farmers in the form of dried grains- and other ..by-products, which for feed purposes is among the best available.
