wonted outburst of unwonted work at

the treaty are being copied. Each min

news of the signing of the treaty was
communicated Immediately by the min

to the army and navy. An armistice
will become operative with the official
statement from here that the treaty
has been signed. Many minor details
of the armistice will be arranged nthe

A Talk On Corn

Editor Times:-I would liki
to say a few words to the farm
ers about the corn root worms
l heard Professor Holden's adj
dress on that subject, and thu
question was asked, when did
the corn root worms first ap-
pear. The professor thought
in '94 or '96. That was his
first knowledge of them. Butt
in 1882 | had a piece of corr
that fell flat. | saw it looked
as though something was work
ing at the roots and l pulled up
several stalks and found them
alive with little white worms.
| called several of my neigh
bors' attention to them but II
found but one man that knew
anything about them. That
was A. P. Henderson, a prof
porous farmsrof Cass TOWNSHIP
now deceased. He told me E
fall pillow the ground, whicyY
did after thoroughly harrowii
the stalks out, and / had |
more trouble with that piece Il
ground, though | put it to corn
the next year. If you cannotl
rotate your crops and cannot
fall pillow your ground thor
oughly, just take your pillow and
throw out the stalk rows, leav-
ing the roots to freeze, as the
eggs are laid in the roots. You
will find this a great benefit
l found those little worms de-
veloped just as the professor
told us they did. l have also
had some experience in seed
corn selection. In 1889 | plant
ed a very common variety of
calico corn. Each year select
ed the very finest ears, gather
ing in early fall and hanging
in the dry. In four years l
had developed such fine, large
corn that farmers passing by
would stop and ask me where
| got such a fine variety of
corn and what kind it was. |
hope my experience may bene-
fit some one.

Hard On lnebriates.

There has been some discuss
ion as to what could be done
with the men or women who
have been sent tc the inebriate
asylum and who escape there
from. 1t had generally been
supposed by the unfortunate
that when a man escaped from
there he could wander at will
over the country or return to
his home and be let alone, but
such is not the case. We quote
below assertion of the Iowa laws
which covers this point:
Acts 3OJh General Assembly,
Chap. 80, Sec. Is: Hospital For
Inebriates- Misdemeanor:: Any
patient in said hospital who
shall without due authority
leave the hospital, including it's
grounds and any other place to
which he may be permitted to
go, shall be guilty of a INSIDE
meanor and shall upon convic-
ton be punised by imprision-
ment in the county Jail not less
than 80 nor more than 80 days,
and the district court of any
county in which the patient
may be found shall have juris-
diction in such cases. Denison

The Way It Loeks t. Lime White.

The Way It Lccks to Lime White.
We notice that our friend
Sniff, of the Harrison County
News, in two column editori-
al last week gives notice that
the result of the special elect
ion was caused by a desire on
the part of the voters of the
county to remove the county
seat to this city. We must
take issue with Brother Sniff
on this. We do not believe
that the result is so much such
a desire as that the voters are
not yet ready to go to the ex-
pense necessary to build a new
court house. If our readers
will look up the law regarding
the removal'of county seat they
will learn that such action is
almost impossible under our
present law unless there is an
overwhelming sentiment in the
county favoring it. We ack-
nowledge that Mo Valley still
has at least onefourth of the
votes in the county, but the
question is notso much whether
a majority will vote for such
removal as whether sufficient
petition can be made asking
vote. To causea vote to be
taken it is necessary to obtain
a majority of all legal voters in
the county, or rather to secure
more names on the petition
that there appears on the re-
monstrance, and a name APP
pearing on both remonstrance
and petition must be counted
only on the former. The re-
quirements regarding residence
etc., are so very strict that
fraud in the making of a petit
ion is strictly guarded against.
We cite the case of Linn county.
Here Cedar Rapids has been
after the county seat, which is
located at Marion, only six
miles away, and a small city as
compared with the Rapids. Ced-
ar Rapids has over one third of
the entire vote of that county
her corporate limits, but
she has so far been unable to
secure a vote on the proposition.
Now Missouri Valley may be
able to secure over half of the
voters names to such a petition
but when the names which APP
pear OH both have been deduct
ed we really do not believe they
can present petition that will
out number the remonstance
that our Logan friends will
put up.
We know that a large number
of those who voted against the
bonds in this vicinity will not
sign a petition or vote for the
removal of the county seat
from Logan. A very large
of voters seemed to
think 1T unnecessary to build a
new court house until the coun-
ty was out of debt, or at least
until the present indebtedness
has been largely reduced. When
the time has arrived we feel
sure a new building will be vot-
ed, as it is badly needed, but we
can not yet believe that our
friends down at the Valley will
be able to secure the removal
Of the seat of county COVER
ment to their city. Time will
sell. -Woodbine Chronicle.
