the attendance at that rate would have
been close to $4,000 and what would it
have been If Jacksonville had been in
the race for the pennant.
Jacksonville's chances also depend
great deal on whether Cedar Rapids
will be able to put up fight enough to
retain her franchise which was for
feited this season on account of low
attendance. 1t is reported that Beld-
en- Hill, the veteran manager, has con-
scented to take charge Of the Cedar
Rapids team and the business men
are preparing to put forth a strenuous
effort to save their franchise.
IF Cedar Rapids is to lose It's
franchise it will be sold to the city
voted into the Three-Eye league and
it is expected that Jacksonville will
be the purchaser if it will raise the
necessary amount. 1t is certain that
the amount necessary will not exceed
$4,000 and will likely be less.
This matter in the Three-Eye will
be decided at the meeting Tuesday.

YOUNG ON WESTERN POLITICS.
Des Moines Editor Says Insursent
Movement Amounts to Little.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 18.-Colonel
LATE Young, editor of the Des Moines
Capital, who is in Washington, has
the following interview in local
newspaper:
1T is the medicine man that's stir
ring up the insurgent movement in the
middle west rather than the people
mean by this that do not believe
there is any deep seated sympathy
among the people with the cause of
the insurgents. This movement ema-
mates from the leaders and not from
the people.
My analysis of the insurgent move
ment in Iowa is that the followers of
Senator Cummins are supporting him.
not because they have any deep in
terest in the movement he is leading,
but because they admired him and be-
lieve he is right. Senator Cummins
is a strong leader and he has very
large following. should say that the
same analysis might apply to other

thought when a man didn't know

could farm.
Now We know that the true far

most needs the help OF books and
papers. He needs to be a scientist
OF the highest order. He must study
bacteriology to know why his milk
sours or has undesirable flavors
He must know about animal diseas-

and to cure the sick. He must be
a business man in order to dispose
OF his products to best advantage
and get most profit out OF them.

A New Variety Of Corn.

Last year small lot of shelled
corn of kind new to this country
was sent to the Department of Ag-
riculture from Shanghai. 1t proved
to have qualities that may make it
valuable in breeding corn ADAPTED
to the hot and dry conditions of the
Southwest. The plants raised in the
test averaged less TIM six feet in
height, with an average of twelve
green leaves at the time of tassel-
ing. The ears averaged 5h inches
in length and Az inches in greatest
circumference, with sixteen to eight
cen rows of small grains, On the
upper part OF the plant the leaves
are all on one side OF the stalk,
instead Of being arranged in two
rows on opposite sides. Besides this,
the upper leaves stand erect instead
OF dropping, and the tips OF the
leaves are therefore above the top
of the tassel. The silks OF the ear
are produced at the point where the
leaf blade is Joined to the leaf
sheath, and they appear before
there is any sign Of an ear except
q slight swelling.

A Dairy Boom.

And still the word comes from all
over the country, not only that the
dairy business is increasing, but
that the prices of dairy products
are constantly advancing. There
never was better time to start in
the dairy business. There seems to
be no end to the demand for dairy
goods,
During the summer the demand
for cream to make ices is constant.
AS the winter comes on the demand
for butter grows, Milk is wanted
during both summer and winter.
Hence there is no dull time for
the dairyman. The cash rolls in
with constant stream, and his
farm is all the time growing more
fertile and producing larger crops
The price of feed has gone up, but
the increased price of the dairy
products more than covers it. II
you have a good dairy and run IL
right, you may expect big profits
this winter.

Prompt Work.

Be your business dairying or what
not, it is always necessary to be
prompt in your work. Millions OF
dollars are lost every year by Amer
lean farmers because they do not
do work when work ought to be
done. Rain comes and the ground
is too wet to pillow or the newly-cut
hay rots in the swath. Cream is
neglected and the butter is spoilt,
You are too long in going to mar
ket, and customers complain that
your milk is sour or your butter is
old. 1t certainly pays always to be
prompt and do your work in time.
Besides, you will find life more sat
isfactory and yourself be happier by
acting on this principle.
