Ears and are slightly better in
shape than2.
The second cut shows sections Of
rows of kernels taken from two differ
ent ears. Judging from outward ap-
pearances of the ears, little or no diff
ference in their values could be dis
covered. The ears from which these
two rows were taken were almost eX-
actly of the same size, yet one ear
weighed 16 per cent more than th'
other and shelled out 2o1a per cen,
more corn. One has not only very
much poorer feeding value than the
other, but has much lower vitality
and would give a weaker plant
1t Is very important that the tips OF
the kernels, the portion next to the
cob. should be full and plump so that
there Ia no space between the kernels
down near the cob.

MR.. wELLMAN's LETTERS.
(From the Rocky Mountain News. /,

tFrom the Rocky Mountain News.)
Mr. Walter Wellman's recent letters
on the industrial situation In this state
now appear to have been written by ar
rangement between the author and the
managers Of the Republican national
campaign. They are being reprinted
and circulated widely in the form OF
pamphlets and are finding their way
into the ready prints furnished to
country newspapers by thu national
committee
Mr. Wellman's letters were not writ
ten for any effect which they might
have in Colorado. where the facts on
both sides are well known, but for eff
feet in other parts OF the country.
where the extraordinary occurrences in
this state have threatened to ALLEVIATE
much of the labor union strength which
Mr.. Roosevelt has enjoyed. Coming
here as supposed investigator, Mr..
Wellman wrote his first letters in
semi judicial tone. but the closing let
tiers were entirely one-sided and gave
unqualified approval not only to the
governors course. but to the policy of
violence which has been established
at Cripple Creek-a policy adopted
IN SPITE OF THE FACT THAT THE
MINE OWNERS ASSOCIATION CON.
Trolls EVERY PEACE OFFICER IN
THE CAMP and that there is no posi-
bility of their administration being con-
trary to the associations interests.
The Wellman letters were printed in
some OF the leading papers in the coun-
try and were expected to and undoubt-
eddy will give the cue to political writ
ers everywhere who will claim that the
law had broken down so utterly in Col
orado that military rule and vigilante
committees and mob law offered the
only means of retaining it from the
control OF rapscallions and murderers
1t is too bad that Colorado's name
should be thus blackened. but ii is i'm
possible to defend the governors &C
tions and the actions of the mob at
Cripple Creek in any other way than
to claim that the law had absolutely
collapsed in the state. And so that
claim is being made and will continue
TO be made. to the detriment of this
community, during the remainder OF
the presidential campaign. Such are
the exigencies Of politics, Such are
the fruits Of the combination entered
into by the governor with the Cripple
Greek Mine Owners Association,
II is somewhat astonishing TO learn,
even from an authority so imposing as
Wellman. that these dire results would
have followed the presence in the camp
Of three lawyers and couple OF store
keepers, none OF whom has ever been
suspected of any purpose more SAN
culinary than the making of speeches in
court and the sale of beef and dry
goods.
