w. X. Kellogg of Battle Creek, Mich,
Gives a $1,000 Trophy to Be Com

the purpose of stimulating the interest or

this city has offered gold and silver
trophy to be competed for at the third
annual national corn exposition to be held
at Omaha, Neb-, Dec. to Is of this year.
Kellogg National Corn Exposition trophy,
viii cost 81 200, and will become the per-
sonal property of any exhibitor winning it
twice. The trophy will be in the shape
designed and built by either Gorham or
Tiffany.
Mr.. kellogg has just returned from Chi
cago where ne held conference with Pro-
ricultural College at Ames, and Stanley
Clague, head of a large Chicago advertis-
ing agency Professor Holden is known as
the foremost authority of the country
large manufacturer of food products made
from corn, is keenly interested in all move
ments tending to improve the quality of
the cereal. This year he has donated
$1,000 to be divided IN several prizes
among the corn growers of Iowa, and at
Professor Holden's suggestion, he decided
to offer the kellogg trophy to be competed
for by the corn growers of the nation.
Corn is the greatest crop of the coun-
try" said Mr.. Kellogg today, land the big
ger the yield of corn the greater the coun-
try's prosperity. Seed selection and inn
proved methods of cultivation will not only
greatly increase the yield per acre, but will
also increase the protein in the corn and
thus enhance its nutritious qualities. If
the yield per acre, for instance, can be in
creased five bushels in the state of Ne
braska alone, it will add S25,000,000 to the
wealth of the farmers of the state. The
National Corn Exposition is doing a great
work in educating the farmers, and / am
glad to help the work along.
