'D" ON The OATS.
Tho Mysterious Stamp on The Grain
in this Valley.
IT is FOUND IN A FIELD
AZ Mill Creek, then Near Liberty Park,
Plainly Embossed on
the Leaves.

A few days ago the dispatches
from Indiana stated that there was
considerable excitement in that part Of
the country because Of a peculiar
marking which had been discovered
on the leaves Of oats. IL was stated
that the letter "B" was stamped on the
grain; and the further informa.
lion was given that tho same
phenomsnon had been observed pre-.
vlous TO the wars Of 1912 aud
1860. These statements furnished n
basis for the belief that the mysterious
letter foresbAdowod great bloodshod In
the country. /, has boon also sug.
gcsted that the marking referred 10 IL
common with oats, but there was no
verifying this claim.
Now the peculiar letter has been
'ound on the grain In Salt Lake valley.
It was frst observed at MIN Creek, elk
m lee south OF the city, and today an
iuvestisation was msde In an uat field
Immediately east VI Liberty PARK. The
r,tult was that the marking was dl,-
