According to Sondwater, he had been

Burgaw, n. C.-Forty-four old bach
elors, citizens of this place, are up in
arms against the first bachelor tax
ever levied in the Tar Heel state,
and they lay the blame on President
Roosevelt. The warm-blooded young
spinsters of the county are, on the
contrary, elated and openly laud the
president for his race suicide" pro-
nunciamento, which they regard as
responsible in part for the action of
the county commissioners in laying
an imposition on those who will not
become benedicts.
Rev. c. Fl. Utley, one of the most
popular preachers in this part of the
state, was the first of the Forty-four
club to become appraised of the new
propaganda affecting their status He
went to the court house to list his
taxes and was informed that he
would have to pay the bachelor tax,
amounting to double poll tax. From
the expression which came upon his
face it could be seen that he did not
intend to pay it another time.
1t is the opinion of the majority of
the Al bachelors that the tax i'm.
posed by the Fender county commits

IowA's LARGE CORN FIELD.
On Fifteen Thousand Acres Half Mil
lion Bushels Are Raised.

Webster City. Ia.-When it is consie-
cred that there are such large corn
fields in Iowa as Adams 15.0O0-acre
ranch near Odebolt producing $4,000
bushels every season and employing
regularly los men. IL is little wonder
that the state of Iowa has 0,000,-
GOO bushel corn crop for 1906. After
the husking is finished the stalks will
be shredded for the fat cattle this
winter
This corn field is the largest in the
world. The full $1,000 acres was
planted with tested seed, and is ex-
pected to yield an average Of thirty
five bushels to the acre. This Is con
sidered small average for Iowa corn
this season.
Thirty-seven double stalk cutters
will be used to bind the corn in the
field Mules are used almost every
where to do the heavy draft work on
the farm, and there are over 200 of
these animals kept constantly on the
place. Mr.. and Mrs. Adams and fam
lily are at present at their winter
home in Chicago. and the farm is in
the hands of its manager.
With the exception of large num-
Der of feeders, which are purchased
every fall, no cattle are raised on the
big farm except enough cows to keep
the help supplied with milk Last
winter Mr.. Adams had 5000 sheep
brought from his North Dakota ranch
for feeding, and 1t is announced that
he will do it again this winter as soon
as the present yardful of cattle can be
marketed.
