BYeRs FOR ATTORNEY GENERAL.

The candidacy of H. w. Byers, Of
Harlan, in Shelby county, has been an
nounced for the republican nomination
for attorney general. Thousands of
Iowans who know web" Byers had
hoped that he would seek the govern
orship for he is the size of man who
could succeed Governor Cummins with
honor but if a lawyer will prefer the
honors that pertain to his profession
his Iowa friends will extend their best
wishes just the same. Byers has been
speaker of the state house of represent
tatives, a man of capacity in state at
fairs and is lawyer of ability. He
was prominent along with Senators
Healy, Funk, Garst, Smith, Maytag,
Hayward, Tom Way and others in the
Cummins campaign against Blythe
and Hubbard, but aside from this, In
his district politics he has been a give
and take kind of republican as be-

Row. Of Corn on a Cob.

Arcola correspondence st. Louis Re-
public: George Hanson of this city is
exhibiting an ear Of corn grown on his
farm that is attracting great deal of
attention, due to the fact that the ear
has an odd number of rows of grain =
twenty three in all. Several of the old
est farmers in the nsighborhood were
skeptical of the story until they were
shown the ear
Rows of corn grow on the cob in even
numbers and one with an odd number
is considered an almost unheard OF
freak. The ear in question is, however,
we'll developed and the rows are
straight and even. Mr.. Hanson dis
covered it while sorting corn for seed.
There is an old story to the effect
that once in antebellum days an old
southern slave owner promised freedom
to the first negro who would find an
ear of corn bearing frn odd number OF
rows. Among the slaves was young
darkey who had thought which he
kept all to himself, but when the corn
was in the roasting ear he went to the
field and stripping back the husk from
an ear, he cut away one of the rows
of grain with q sharp knife. BY the
time the corn had reached it's maturity
the wound made by the knife had been
entirely obliterated and the ear showed
an odd number Of rows of grain. Inc
voung slave was accordingly given his
freedom and his cunning was not dis
covered until he had gotten safely
away

1otato Yield.

One of the important questions raised
by potato growers Is how to increase
the yield per acre. The expense of
producing an acre of potatoes is nearly
as great for short as for maximum
crop. The yield per acre for the United
States in 1904 averaged 110.4 bushels.
states each averaged 100
bushels, while seven states averaged
each less than Is bushels. The larger
averages in bushels were Maine 215,
Wyoming 161, Colorado 159, New Mex
leo 159, Montana, 145, Rhode Island
i07, New Hampshire 1876, Vermont 1913,
New Jersey LIS, Pennsylvania 106, New
York, SO, Ohio 9S. The ten-year av-
erage for the United States has been
bnly S5.S bushels per acre.
B U. S. Consul Mahin reports the result
of potato growing competition held
In Derbyshire. Prizes We're given for
the largest crops and for the best quail
lty. Two pounds of seed were given
each contestant The first prize win
ner produced 1872 pounds of potatoes
from the two pounds of seed, equal to
1905 bushels per acre. The combined
product of % competitors was equiva-
lent to nearly 1000 bushels per acre.
In England $50 bushels per acre is con-
sidered good yield, while the aver
age for 100000 acres is 224 bushels.

double our present meat exports here

THE REVOLT IN RUSSIA.

It is long way from the loyal men
of Moscow burning their roofs above
the heads of Napoleon's grenadiers to
the barricades defended by their de-
scendants against the cars troops 1t
is far cry from the patriotism that
suffered for Russia to open revolt and
civil war, but it is part of Russian
progress and of the downfall of abso-
lutism. Even in the provinces Of the
Cossacks, where loyalty to the czar
is religion, the people are up In arms
against the government. And when
the Cossacks forsake the throne, what
is it's hope to endure? Russian Mos
COW and Cossack Saratoff in revolt,
are the strongest predictions of dis
aster. Finland, Poland, Lithuania and
the alien provinces are natural centers
of revolution. This latest revolt, how
the two pillars of the throne. It is as
though Paris were up in arms against
the French government.
The revolution will succeed. Back of
it are the eternal principles of justice
that never wholly fail. The peasant,
blindfold in ignorance, bound in
slavish fear Of the aristocracy, driven
by torture, has risen and is striking in
the dark. If his blows lack direction
at least his hands are hard and strong
to kill. The bureaucracy the aristoc-
racy and the autocracy of Russia is
doomed. And to this let all who love
liberty say amen.
Two years ago the word of Russia
might have stood against the world.
Now, none are so poor as to do her
reverence. Her people have outgrown
her. For a time, perhaps, the soldiers
of the car may arrest the progress
of the revolution, but Russia will never
know internal peace until her people
are free,

WHERE The GRAIN SHOULD GO.

The town Of Manson has been boast
ing of the fact that 100000 bushels of
grain would pass thru its markets this
season and the Cedar Rapids Republi-
can calls these Manson braggarts down
with query as to whether it would
not be better if no grain passed thru
Manson at all. It is the Republicans
theory that all grain should pass thru
cattle and hogs and the Republican
asks wouldn't it be better if it We're
converted into meat and pork on the
farms around Manson?"
Now, any stock feeder could have
told the Republican why it were not
better to feed up this grain. If his
reasons were not good Manson feeders
would undoubtedly have had the nerve
to tackle the job, but as conditions are
in the livestock trade, the men who
will engage in feeding cattle are very
few, in number
Turning to the news columns Of the
Drovers' Journal published at the Chi
cago stockyards, we find a reporter de-
scribing market conditions as follows:
Local beef houses are putting no
very pressing orders into the hands
of their buyers at this time, and it re-
quires no expert to see that cattle
trade at this time would be in very
disastrous condition were 1t not for
the good support that exporters have
been affording the trade here this
week
There was much argument heard on
the floor here today that the condition
of trade and the evident value that ex-
port demand is to all concerned in the
trade should prompt producers of cat
tie as we'll as commission merchants
who are unremittingly for the cause
Of reciprocity which shall open more
foreign markets to the meat produce of
our farms"
An uncompromising standpatter like
the republican, when it grows indignant
at the folly Of Manson farmers in not
making beef and pork of their grain,
should read the livestock market re-
ports and learn about the value OF an
export trade. Here is week reported
in which the market would have been
in disastrous condition" without the
good support of exporters and yet
Manson farmers see nothing in feeding
their grain. If the Republican is really
interested in the welfare of Iowa's
livestock interests it should join with
us progresslves and demand some tar
if concessions that will open German
markets to American meats on reci
procal basis. There is a chance to-

Sheep Notes.


Sheep Notes.
For every sheep that dies from grub
in the head thousands die for lack of
grub in the stomach. There is a dis
order called grub in the head, but it
is not disastrous. Keep plenty Of
grub in the stomach and the grub in
the head will not become apparent.
The wise shepherd begins to feed
his lambs a month before they are
visible and the other kind of sheep
men begin a month afterward.
The Lincoln has been regarded the
largest breed of any sheep. In re-
cent years the Cotswold has been
asking for this distinction. The Rom
ney Marsh is also getting some weight
on 1t and is making bid for large
carcass.
Feed grain and hay that is left over
after feeding lambs to coils. They
will not eat feed that has been "muss-
ed over. Many beginners make a
mistake here.
We have in the United States less
than a half a sheep to each one of
our eighty millions ard yet there are
those who believe the sheep business
will be overdone.
1t pays to grade sheep and lambs
according to size and strength rather
than by ages. An old crone may run
with lambs and some yearlings will
do much better with the lambs. A
sheep is timid and when set back
little is easily forced away from feed.
There is a great deal of speculation
in the sheep feeding business this
year. Many who have bought at good
prices are little bit nervous about
the outcome. Those who are not
brave will send the lambs or sheep
to market before they are finished and
they will not sell at as good prices as
finished stuff and they may lose
money. 1t will pay to finish sheep.
The past few weeks have shown this
in the leading markets where good
stuff has sold readily while that which
is not finished is slow sale.
