Mother an Invalid.
Perhaps the most pathetic phase of
this tragic case is the plight of Rath-
buns mother. An invalid, naturally,
the shock of the terrible news from
omaha, as she was permitted to hear
1t, almost prostrated her. The exact
state of affairs, the knowledge that
her son had killed his wife, was not
told her until Wednesday evening AS
result of this disclosure she is now
on the verge of complete prostration
and the physicians are very much
worried about her condition.
The Rathbun family has always
been very prominent here. The dead
man was an only child and would
have inherited large sum of money
from an uncle and his parents. He
was home here week ago visiting
with his parents. He was discharged
from the army in January after three
years of service in Cuba. His wife
visited here seven months ago He
married her shortly after entering
the service in Des Moines.
Jealousy of his wife is the reason
assigned for the tragedy by those
who knew the young husband best

Buy Seed Corn at Home.

BY P. G. Holden Of the State Agrt-
cultural college
The condition Of much of the seed
corn to be planted in Iowa this year
Is bad. This is especially true in ths
northern half Of the state.
Many Will find 1t necessary to buy
seed and being unable to secure it
near home will send away and pur-
chase 1t wherever seed Is advertised
In most cases this will lead to disap.
polntment, for corn grown from seed
brought In from distance, especial
ly from the south, will yield consid-
erably less than that from home
grown seed and will also fail to ma
ture as we'll
This department wishes to urge
upon those buying seed to secure that
which has been grown in their own
country for number of years. Al
large number Of experiments conduct-
ed in different parts of the state dur
ing the past three years have shown
very conclusively that corn grown
from even good seed brought in from
distance yields less than an appa--
emily poorer quality of corn raised in
that locality. They have also shown
that imported seed will not mature
as we'll as the home grown seed
If someone in the neighborhood has
well matured corn which was harvest.
ed early it will be safer to select the
best ears from the crib, test six or
more kernels from each ear and save
for seed only those from which six
Kernels grow strong than to send
away for seed which is not suited to
that locality.
Many inquiries as to where seed
may be purchased have already been
received. Judging from past expert
ences the greatest demands will come
about corn planting time. when many
Will awake to the realization that they
have no seed corn and do not know
where to get any.
wish that those having more seed
than they need, which will grow VOL
and mature in their locality, to write
to the undersigned and make It
known, stating the name of the va
riety. whether 1t is early and the
price per bushel, so that less fortu.
nate people can be directed to some
one in their own sections of the state
for seed.
wish to draw attention again to
the great need of testing six or more
kernels from every ear of seed to be
planted In Iowa this year.
