a crowd of local enthusiasts went over
to see the contest, which wasn't par

however.

RIGHT TO cRITlcIsE.
Jury Uphoids Exposure by Press of
Misconduct in Office.

The jury in the libel suit for $780,
900 brought by L. E. Jones, formerly
county auditor, against the Ohio State
Journal, Columbus, brought in ver-
dice for the defendant. 1t is reported
by the Journal as vindication of the
right of the press fearlessly to ex-
pose misconduct in public Office.
In its charges the State Journal
said, "The conduct of the county
auditors Office during the past four
years has been marked by greater
disregard of public interest and bold
er methods of personal graft than
have ever obtained in any Office in
the history of Franklin county At
the same time the Journal revealed
methods by which the inventories in
the probate court of dead mems es-
tates had been used to gain informa-
ton concerning omitted property
upon which tax inquisitors had been
paid thousands of dollars. The in
quisitor was not legally entitled to
the percentage upon such property.
In the prosecution of the suit for
libel Mr.. Jones sought to show that
the State Journals charges were not
true.

gun in 1900 and our first attempt was
to secure select bred corn from our
sister state, Illinois, thinking that
we could by a process of acclimati-
cation reap the benefits of the work
already put upon the corn. We found
that we could not succeed with south
ern bred corn and would be obliged
to work out the problem with corn
bred in Wisconsin. We secured the
state and secured corn in various
places that had been grown through a
long series of years. We tested
many varieties and cast out many,
only retaining a few for final tests.
Our corn breeding work is carried
on largely by the ear to the row
method. Ears are selected and test
ed that are uniform in character and
show equal viability Butts and tips
are rejected and the remainder of the
ear planted in single row. Each
ear is thus planted until fifty or 100
distance apart and the same number
of kernels are planted in each hill.
The outcome is very astonishing for
some of the ears have the energy, vi
tality and force to produce as much
as ten times the amount of seed corn
that their sister ears are able to pro-
duce.
There are factors that make up
an ear of corn that are visible to the
naked eye, and the only way we have
of testing it's projected efficiency is
by putting it to the growing test. In
this way we have bred corn for five
successive years until the variation,
which at first was very wide, is now
there a discrepancy of more than
from three to one of select corn.
With corn growing centers estab-
lished so thickly throughout our
state, farmers can now secure seed
which is relatively near at hand and
which is especially aclimated for his
immediate neighborhood The meth
cd of breeding and dissemination pur-
sued has been productive of exceed
ing good results. From an average
yield of twenty-seven bushels in
1901, we have gradually advanced
until the United States yearbook for
1906 gives us a yield of ALP bushels
per acre. In other words Wisconsin
produced 2O,OO0,00O bushels more
corn in 1906 than she did in 1901 on
the same area of ground.
1.-The breeding and dissemination
of select corn coupled with the infor-
nation of growing and curing corn
properly has played an important part
in raising the yield throughout the
entire state"

listeners. He urged the publication
of the horse in this country and par
ticularly in Wisconsin. The nations
of Europe, he said, especially Eng
land, France, Belgium and Scotland,
are making millions selling purebred
horses to this country. We might
just as well develop purebred stock
here. We have 100000 worth of
horses here, twice the value of cat
tie, and yet most of our horses are
scrubs. The address was made the
more interesting by Illuminating sta
tistics and many happy expressions
were thrown in which the audience
appreciated DR.. Alexander gave the
farmers of Wisconsin thanks for
making creditable progress in this di-
rection, and he declared that in point
of legislation this state is probably
in the lead in this country, but there
is still much room for Improvement.
He was particularly foreeful in max
ing the assembled stock raisers see
the pecuniary advantage that they
would gain by using nothing other
than pure stock in raising their
horses and in keeping everlastingly
before them this important fact.

DYING CONSERVATIVES
PARTICULARLY INFECTIVE

Philadelphia, Sept, 26,-Addresses
by world famous scientists and spe-
ciaIistg on tuberculosis marked the
sessions here yesterday of the Inter
national Conference on tuberculosis.
DR.. Koch, discoverer of the tubercu-
lar bacillus, made a short address
and was given an ovation. DR.. Koch
expressed the opinion that isolation
eventually would eradicate the dis
ease. He did not put much faith IN
isolation at a sanitarium. The home
is the place it is needed, he contend
ed, because the patient in the last
stages of the disease is particularly
infective. If he is sent to SANTA
rum and then returns home to ole
in the midst of his family, as much
harm may be done as if he had never
gone away. Every case should be iso
lated as long as the bacilli are there
