chased quantity OF seed corn in Indiana.
In the shipments was freak ear, which,
instead of the ordinary cob, was composed
of core of hnsk, the grains being neatly
wrapped upon she soft foundation, like
cas- in pod
Mr.. Soonce was impressed with the
novelty Of the find and decided TO plant
all the kernels found on the freak ears.
To his surprise, the ears produced this
Fall were found to be exact reproductions
Of the single ear. He has decided to plant
more of the corn next year, and viii en-
deavor to improve on il. He believes that
there is more to it shan freakishness. The
ears produced this year yielded as much
corn as those provided with Job, and the
kernels were large and solid. The ears
we're we'll filed, kernels even growing

State Grange Master, Senator Gaunt, of
this county, in his address to the State
Grange last week, advanced the idea that
as she people had invested all the wealth
they can afford in improved roads that the
State and Federal Governments ought to
carry the good work forward
Since when did the State become richer
than the people? Have we so soon in our
history reached the point where the Amer
lean Republic has become Russianized, and
we have rich governments and poor people.
Governments, State and Federal, derive
heir wealth from the people and if these
are more able to build roads than the peo-
pie, then Senator Gaunt can, with prof to
his constituents, aid in turningthe tables and
change the system that has created this I'M
American condition.
Improved roads are of especial value TO
the section through which they pass, yet
they have general value to the State. In
that far the people of the whole State
ought to contribute TO road construction,
and no further
Let's get back to first and safe principles
in government.

The people have so long considered the
rivers, lakes and the ocean natures sewers,
that the reformers will haYe long and
hard task in educating them to the new
idea of changing present methods of dis
posal Of sewage to what are known disposal
plants. An article in another column gives
an idea Of the reforms the State Board Of
Health expects to inaugurate in the Della

sewer for towns and cities for distance of

Los Angeles herald., 1908-11-25

might fans and sportsmen generally
will regret to learn that Jack
n Gleason has failed in his efforts
to prevent the contamination of the
dirty deal by which he lost the Papke-
Ketchell fight. Despite that the fans
want to have the two middleweights
fight it out and forever settle their
little quarrel, they also believe in fair
play and square deal in all things
pertaining to sports. Gleason has not
had anything that resembles either.
Had the injunction been issued against
Coffroth and the fighters, Gleason
would have recovered a portion of that
which is justly due him by preventing
Coffroth from holding the fight and
profiting by his dirty tactics, and he
also would have been revenged upon
the fighters for breaking their COR
tract, although he would not have re-
covered the financial loss involved in
the preliminary advertising and prep
aration for the fight that he secured
in an honorable manner. The court
decided against Gleason because under
the law it had no right to do otherwise,
and Gleason is too good a sport TO
crab at it. But sometimes the law does
not reach far enough to cover SUCH
cases. Coffroth has not made himself
any more popular because he has won
and he has not convinced the sporting
world that he had the slightest Justi-
fication for his acts. Gleason not only
loses this fight, but it now is too late
for him to fill his date and conse-
quently his loss is greater than the
money he already has spent in the
preliminary details for staging the
fight. Coffroth will reap no rich har-
vest as a result of his success in this
affair. The fight will be staged at an
hour when other attractions will OPP
crate against it, and he will be lucky
indeed if he pulls out even on the deal.
