BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS The board of public works held a

meeting at the city hall Friday eve­ning to di,scuss matters nertaining to the assessment for the Second and Third street sewers. Several property holders on Second street southeast were present and asked that 'they be given a reduction on their assessments as they already had connections with other sewers. The board took no ac­tion in the matter at the time.

Another meeting of the board was held Monday evening but little of. im­portance was done. September 28 was set as the date for the hearing on both the Second and Third street sew­er assessements. In the past it has been customary to give at least a 15-day notice but City Attorney Cameron holds that a 6-day notice is enough.! The assessment for the Third street J sewer will be a trifle higher than that of the Second street sewer. It will cost the property owners 60^ cents per front foot.

nesota College of Agriculture is mak­ing every possible effort to bring into touch those who have supplies of good seed and those who wish to buy. In line with this purpose, C. P. Bull, of the division mentioned, announces that he has the names of a large number of farmers who have supplies of winter wheat and winter rye suitable for seed. In some instances the fields from which these grains were grown were carefully inspected and the purity and quality of _the product can be vouched for.

The list includes names of those who have for sale Minnesota No. 529, which is recommended as a standard for growers of winter wheat in Minnesota at the present time, and Minnesota No. 2 rye, which, under test for ten years, gave an average yield of 39.8 bushels, and this year an average yield of 39.5 bushels (even with the damage done to blossorfis by frost last spring.)

The value of spraying was demon-! atrated again this year in spite of the small apple crop. One orchardist who has no fruit this year, on account of the spring frosts, has given his or­chard as good care as if it contained plenty of fruit. This is the right spirit and will mean a good crop another year.

Proper grading is necessary in order to get the best prices from many crops. This is especially true of apples and other products that sell on appearance. A few poor apples in a lot will lower the selling price to that of the poor apples. Better sell No. 1 and No. 2 stock in well graded packages.

BEETLES TEAR

The Buffalo moth or carpet beetle is very abundant this year in Minnesota, says C. W. Howard, of the division of entomology, University Farm, St. Paul, and heroic efforts are needed to de­stroy it, if it once finds lodgment in a home. In such case, rugs should be re­moved for a thorough cleaning, and should be left in the sunshine as long as possible. If the moths have at­tacked a carpet it should be thoroughly sprayed with gasoline. If they have gotten into cracks in the floor or be neath the baseboards, all dust should be removed from cracks and the floors keep birds about the place this winter? : ,, ,, , ...

heavy snow or at other times when food is scarce. There is a good old Scandinavian custom, which might be followed here with pleasure and profit, of putting a sheaf of wheat out occa-tionally during the winter to feed the birds. Try it. The fun of watching the birds will pay for the trouble.— Le Roy Cady, associate horticulturist, University Farm, St. Paul, Minn.

LOOK OUT FOR POTATO ROT Owing to the fact that black leg and

late blight have been very prevalent in practically every potato-growing sec­tion of the state, the attention^ of all potato-growers is ^called to the im­portance of the rots which follow these diseases.

Black leg is a wilt disease which is characterized by a yenowing of the vines, upward curling of the leaves, and an inky-black discoloration of the stems, extending from the seed piece to several inches above the surface of the soil in most cases. Tubers under such vines develop a black, foul smell­ing, soft rot, generally beginning at the stem end of the potato.

Late blight is characterized by a grayish brown discoloration of the leaves, the under side of which are covered with a grayish white mold. The disease gets into the soil from the dis­eased leaves and causes in the tubers a grayish brown, mealy-dry rot. In external appearance it appears as sun­ken, purplish, watersoaked spots.

Potatoes containing either of these rots will serve as a means for spread­ing disease to healthy tubers if placed with them in storage. It is, therefore, important to discard any tubers that show the slightest indications of these rots at digging time.

Proper storage is of the utmost im­portance. A dry, well-ventilated stor­age cellar, kept as close to a tempera­ture of 35 degrees as possible, will keep these rots from spreading. Dur­ing digging and handling, great care should be taken not to bruise the tub­ers, since it is by means of wounds that these rots spread most rapidly in storage. A. G. Tolaas, assistant in Plant Pathology, Minnesota Experi­ment Station.

cracks may be sprayed with gasoline or kerosene and filled with plaster of Paris. The grubs may be trapped by putting old woolen cloths on the floors of closets. They will gather on these and may easily be destroyed. Various fumigants may be used, but these are more or less dangerous and should not be used without writing to the entom­ologist at University Farm, St. Paul, for particular instructions.

The insect as usually seen is about a quarter of an inch long and bears transverse rows of long brown hairs. From the rear end projects a bunch of longer hairs.

•THIS IS THE TIME TO PICK SEED CORN

Now is the time to pick seed corn, Every farmer who has a field in

*which corn has reached the dent stage, or a more advanced stage, should pick his seed corn for next year now!

Those who have no corn mature enough to pick for seed should secure permission to pick from some neigh­bor's field at a fixed price per bushel.

Corn having been picked for seed, should be stored immediately, so as to avoid danger of freezing. In storing, the corn should be hung up where it will get thorough ventilation. Cold weather will ;be less likely to hurt it if it has been thoroughly dried.

- No farmer can get too" much seed corn this fall. If he gathers more than he cares to use on his own fields, he will be able to dispose of his entire surplus at a good profit in the spring.

(CURE SEED CORN WITH GREAT CARE

Extraordinary care will be needed in curing seed corn this fall. Most of the seed corn picked will contain much -moisture. The more moisture the more serious will be the danger from freezing. Consequently s««d corn | should be s tored in a dry and suff i - j ciently warm place as soon as it is picked. Moreover, it should be hung up or placed on racks in such a way that the air may circulate freely about every ear. If these simple directions are followed, the corn will dry out rapidly, the effects of the cold winter weather will be reduced to a minimum, and the corn will give the largest pos­sible germination in the spring. Of course, the seed should be tested care­fully before being planted in the spring. -

Bring to us any special list of groceries and we will guarantee to fill it with quality guaranteed

All we ask Mr. Farmer is an opportunity to fig­ure with you on your fall wants.
