And when the earning from the fore caster comes, as it usually will from 24 to 48 hours in advance, look to the protection of the garden produce which is not yet under cover. Thrre are a number of ways to foresta'l the surprise attacks of this Jack Frst person and representatives of the I'nited States weather bureau, real izing that a gooil deal more produce will be subject to loss fr.-m frot this fall than ever before, hive advised early preparedness on the part of farmers. Pruuvuvo 0verlnir.s 1 'rgctl. First, the specialists suggest, pro tective coverings should be made ready. Vegetables can not scamper to cover, but the gardener can scam per covering to the vegetables and perhaps save a winter's supply in a short time if he is prepared. Old blankets, tarpaulins. sacks. straw, manure, paper and various other ma terials may be used for covering. The conditions favorable for the forma tion of early frost in fall re usually of short duration and consequent I v protective measures ordinarily will have to be employed only for a day or two. After the first fall frost there is generally a return to nor mal temperatures for a number of days, possibly for a week or more, during wh'ch time 'mmature vegetn- I bles that have been protected will continue to grow and ripen. i Or Gather the Vecr-tablc. Whrn frost is imminent and pro 1 tection 's not possible or practicable. vegetables likely to be injured should be gathered and canned, dried, pick d. preserved or store. Those tha can not be saved from exposure to freezing should, if possible, be gath ered before thawing takes place In the case of potatoes. , especially sweet potatoes, all v'nes should be cut off at the surface of the ground after th occurrence of frost. Tomatoes may be pulled up, plant and all, and hunr tops downward ir . dark p! ice, preferably n ce'lar, When treated in this nv the fru't will ripen nlcly and slowly and will be ava'lahle for tnble use for a lone time after the plant hive been re moved .rom the so'l.

CUKTURE. I Who understand Dry Farming, and arr seeking more land on which to raise more wheat; to the Wheat Farmers who bought Wheat lands a few years ago at from $26 to t76 per acre and have since seen the same land Increase in value to from t60 to $150 per acre. To the Wheat Farmers who do not desire to pay the excessive high prices prevailing In the districts In which they now reside, but who deHlre for the gooa of the Xatlon. their Families and their Bank Accounts, to raise more wheat. To the Wheat Farmers who own no land, but who pay an excessive rental to raise wheat on land owned by others, and who want to break tho bondage of RenttitK and become in stead. Free and Independent owners. To the above this price list has a message. HOW ARE CROPS NOW? The above Is a question I like to unswer to a really experienced Dry Farmer. Crops aro Wonderful considering the following three points: 1st. That this is the dryesl season experienced in, this Kection in L'S years. 2nd. Comparing crops with many other well known good Dry Farming sections. 3rd. Considering the very poor class of Dry Farming pursued at Cut Hank, there being practically no summer fallowing done whatsoever. I can show any man field after field of wheat that will make 15 to 21) bushels per acre and flax In plenty that will make S to 10 bushels. Again I say crops, considering everything, are wonderful and I believe nothing else could have demonstrated better what an excellent Dry Farming Wheat Country this section is, than the results obtained under the present adverse conditions. 143!!4 160 acres 3 1-2 mites from elevator, alt fenced, all raw tillable land, $28.50 per acre.
