RAISING THE AVERAGE CORN WELD.

| According to the government crop re-
port as given in the year book of the
department of agriculture for 1902. the
average Yield of corn last year for the
entire country is only 26S bushels per
acre. For the pasts ten years the best
average was 2S.2 bushels. in 1896. Last
year the best average yield was held
by Missouri with SO bushels: Illinois
came next with 3S.7 bushels. and Ohio
third with even 3S bushels per acre.
The corn state of Iowa ranks eighth
with an average yield of 50 bushels.
There is suggestion In these figures
that farmers are not getting the best
out of their labor. Thirty-two bushels
to the acre is not enough in Iowa 1t
is below the capabilities of the state
at least twenty bushels to the acre
ITO be sure the weather conditions OF
the last three years have been such as
make the crop patchy and lower the
average of the yield, but leaving all
that out of consideration. our corn
average is too low
There are different causes to which
this deficiency may be assigned. one
is the careless habit of burning straw
and neglecting the manure heap. which
has obtained in considerable portion
of the state. hut which is being rapidly
reformed. The Iowa farmer pays too
small attention to the value of clover
IS fertilizer in preparing soil for the
principal crop of the state. But the
sowing of clover to be harvested as a
hay crop for two or three years and
then plowed under in the fall to add
strength to corn land is becoming as
general in Iowa as in Illinois,
Given practical and economical farm
ing methods the hope of higher yield
is in the improvement and development
of the corn itself. Iowa farmers are
especially cautious in selecting fruit
trees to get the particular variety
the climate and soil. Their livestock
bres sders are selected of the best indi-
viduals and of the most highly de-
veloped breeds. and are changed con-
stanfly lest they run out But he
plants nameless seed corn year after
year. selects his seed from the husk-
ing wagon and plants next and the
succeeding springs the same mixed
and possibly degenerate seed. He
wouldn'. do this with his livestock. his
orchard or his garden. but he does 1t
with the corn, which is his principal
crop.
II the corn raisers of Iowa will exer-
else the same care in the selection of
seed corn Will change as often and in
sist on approved varieties as they do in
their herds, the result will be an as
rise in the average of yield |
and a five bnshel rise means millions |
to the s-ate of Iowa.

GENERAL WOODS CASE.

| The oft repeated and generally cred
/ tied assertion that conspiracy te
ruin his career is at the bottom of the
attack upon General Wood, is strongly
supported by General Bliss letter to
Secretary Root in which he absolutely
Icontradicts the published reports OF
his testimony before the senate COM
mittee In his letter General Bliss de-
clares tnal his testimony was the ex
act opposite of it's published reports
ana demands correction in vlndication
of his own reputation and character.
In submitting this letter to the chair
man of the senate committee Secretary
Root calls the attention of the COM
mittee to the fact that deliberate falsl-
fication of the testimony is being fur
the prejudice of General Wood. Con-
tinuing he says:
ct is evident some person Is under
taking to convey to press representa-
the committee and in taking advantage
of the fact that the evidence Is not
published, te state it falsely, for the
purpose of injuring General Wood in
the public estimation: so that, while
your committee will act upon the evil
dence actually before 1t, public judg
ment as to how you ought to act win
be based upon an entirely different
and erroneous idea of what the evil
dence is.'
Public confidence in General Wood
will be greatly strengthened by this
exposure. That confidence has never
been shaken but the public has taken
a judicial attitude and has been wait
ing for General Woods defence while
reserving judgment. The exposure of
a plot to prejudice popular opinion
by perjury Will be resented by the pub
lie and the press upon which the de-
ception was successfully practiced and
give confirmation TO the strong under
current Of suspicion that the motives
behind the attack on Wood are mall
icious and revengeful. The conspir-
ators accuse General Wood of resorting
to the press to undermine his superior
officer and then resort to the despicable
trick of furnishing the trusted repre-
Of press bureau with an ut
terly false report of the testimony Civ
10 r.,
Woods downfall In public estimation.
The exposure Of the trick Is an ex-
rosure of conspiracy and the motives
about which the conspiracy formed
itself. Such public confidence as Woods
aetractors had gained has been utterly
lost Their standing is destroyed. The
cause that calls for perjury and in
trigue and shameful deception has no
before the tribunal of decent
public opinion. A lie is confess
sion.
During all this savage attack upon
Wood, neither himself or his friends
have shown any desire to shirk or
evade investigation. They have await
ed with quiet confidence the progress
of his assailants toward the end of
their rope. Wood has gone on, serv-
ing his country and suppressing an in
content to leave his repu-
tation and his future in the hands of
iis countrymen. Developments appear
% have justified their confidence. The
End of the rope and the round turn
seem to have been reached. When all

We have professional paupers whose
wits have been sharpened on the fra!l-
ties of the race. They chuckle when
they get a ton of coal where half Il ton
was intended. They learn the Ian
guage of sympathy. They need meal
and prefer a drink. They are willing
10 make nuisances of themselves for 4
small return for the pleasure of seeing
them move on. They have not char :
ity for themselves, and the corruption
of the heart shuts them off from good
conscience.
In the background are the deserv
ing poor. God give them pity and
help.
To be an object of charity is to be
degraded in the eyes of men. Men
struggle fiercely lest they reach that
level. and the fear of it opens many
prison doors.
And yet are we all the objects of the
charity of God.
There is no relief of which the world
has such need as the relief of love. The
gift that comes otherwise reduces the
store of the giver and adds to the
pauperism OF mankind.
Now the end of the commandment is
charity out of a pure heart, and Of
a good conscience, and of faith un
fegned."
