To increase the annual yield OF corn
throughout the United States one
hushel per acre would mean a total i'm
crease yield of 1O2,00o,000 bushels.
This larger yield is easily possible II
seed corn is properly selected, cured
and tested. The use of properly cured
bushels per acre, over seed as ordinar-
lily taken from the crib.
1t ID of great Importance not TO pick
seed corn before 1t has matured well
on the stalk. Where ears are picked
too soon, earliness is secured at the
expense Of vitalits. A slight frost will
not injure we'll matured corn and 1t Is
preferable to run the risk of q frost
rather than to pick the ears too early
because the latter period of the grow
ing season greatly improves the vital !
ity Of the corn.
Dry Seed Corn Quickly.
Corn at harvested normally contains
90 to 80 per cent OF moisture which
must be quickly reduced to 10 to IL
per cent or the seed will be injured.
TO remove this moisture, the Wiscon-
sin experiment station advises kiln
drying or IRE drying where possible.
If this method IL not practical and
only small quantities Of corn are to be

STRANGER FAILS IN EFFORT
TO PASS A BOGUS CHECK
Cashier of John BenO Company IL on
watch and Saves Firm Some
Money.

About 4 O'Clock yesterday afternoon a
stranger put in an appearance at the John
Beno companys store and wanted to pur-
chase a IS hat. He presented in payment
therefor check for $780, made out on
one of the check forms of the New York
Tailoring company of No. 610 Broadway,
and asked for the change.
Cashier +. l.. Ellis of the Beno store was
a little skeptical about the check and the
numerous endorsements on IT which led
him TO think that it wasn't straight and he
proceeded to make some inquiries. In the
meanwhile the stranger began to think Of
another engagement he had elsewhere
about that time, and he didn't seem to
care about the change anyhow or the
hat either, so he just gently dropped out
of sight. Efforts to find him were I'M
availing and he succeeded In making his
getaway.
1t was later learned that the check blank
had been stolen from the New York Tailor
ing establishment and was a clear and
palpable forgery.
The police have been. given a good de-
scription of the stranger and unless he got
out of town on one of the early evening
trains his arrest is only a matter of time.
A stranger answering the description OF
the man was observed in the New York
Tailoring establishment early in the after
noon, but just how he happened to get
hold of one Of the firms checks is not
known.

Merry Thief Takes
Harness Off Horse
Bartel & Miller Find Animal Wander
ing Where it Had Been
Turned Loose.

The grocery store Of Bartel & Miller at
100 West Broadway will bear testimony to
the nerve some thieves have.
About noon a horse belonging to the firm
as one Of the delivery outfit was enjoying
its noon luncheon yesterday In the stable
when some chap slipped into the stable
and deliberately led the horse out OF the
stable, took It up in the weeds about a
block from the store, and divesting 1t OF
the harness, turned the horse loose, hiding
the harness in the weeds, with the evident
intention of going back after It after dark
or at some other convenient time. The
horse strayed away and a searching party
was sent out, when the animal was found
near the Benton street bridge, surveying
that new structure, but there was no har-
ness on the animal.
A search was then instituted for the har-
ness and 1t was finally found neatly hidden
In the weeds in the rear of 1l2 East Broad
way, where 1t had been planted by the
thief.

Council Bluffs
COUNCIL WILL co SLOWLY
Conservatives Thinking Twice on
Water Situation.
TWO APPRAIsEMENTs NOW MADE
One Fixing value of Plant at seven
Hundred thousand Dollars
Thought by Some Not
Too High.

Conservative members Of the city coun-
are not enthusiastically disposed to rush
into condemnation proceedings against the
Council Bluffs city waterworks until bet
ter informed upon the various phases OF
the situation. An appraisement Of the
plant was made some years ago by Engi-
neer w. A. Klerstead for S5O0.OOO, and a
later one by Engineer Alvord for the water
company Of 100000. IL is recognized that
the plant has not decorated in value
since, and that probably the latter figures
would more nearly represent its true value
at this time.
The present Indebtedness of the city
would hardly admit Of extensions to the
plant, however much needed, by another
bond issue, the present bond issue being
made under special act Of the Legislature
which allows bond Issues to pay for NUM-
cpal plants.
1t is the opinion Of we'll informed au-
thorites, including several members OF the
council that all costs OF the condemnation
proceedings would have to be borne by the
city, which would be sung sum in the
procurement Of expert witnesses, legal as
sistance outside the city solicitor and all
costs for holding the court.
AS the matter now stands the council,
while anxious to have the mater settled,
will go slow in the premises until every
point Of view is fully and carefully con-
sidered.
Receiver Edward w. Hart, for the wa
ter company, believes that the attitude OF
the water company is misunderstood and
said:
I'VE have always been willing to meet
the citizens half way in any reasonable
settlement OF the waterworks question. We
at one time offered to appoint an APP
praiser to act with one appointed by the
city and set fair value on the plant, and
announced to the council that our appraiser
was ready, but nothing was ever done
