BOY CORN GROWERS SEE TAFT
Thirteen Prize-winning Youngsters
Are Visitors in City.
Work in Competition Demonstrates
Possibilities of South in
Maize Industry.

By far the happiest boys In Washington
| to-day are thirteen youngsters. not one
Of them more than sixteen years old
from the sunny South. who are visiting
the Capital as the special guests of Sec
rotary Wilson, Of the Department of Ag-
riculture.
These boys are members Of the corn
clubs under the Farmers Cooperative
Demonstration Work OF the Department
Of Agriculture. and represent the prize
winners among 40005 up-to-date Southern
farmer boys who are demonstrating TO
the country to-day what the South can
do in growing corn.
They are in charge Of Prof. o. B. Mar
Tin. assistant 10 the chief of the Bureau
Of Farmers Cooperation and Demon
stration. vino is responsible, as their
guardian, for the sightseeing trips about
the city.
President Taft spared enough of his
valuable time yesterday 10 chat for a
few moments with the boys at the White
House. and sent them away with their
hearts glad because Of praise they well
deserved.
To-day they plan TO call upon Secre-
tary Wilson and spend the remainder OF
/ their time looking over the city. Prof
Martin took all the boys to Chase's last
night and they insisted on walking down
brilliantly lighted Pennsylvania avenue
10 the ST. James Hotel, where they are
stopping.
The boys expressed themselves as i'm
mensely pleased with their visit, but were
most enthusiastic in discussing the re-
suits OF their experiments. That a re-
awakening Of Southern farmers in corn

result they firmly believe.
About year ago all the members of
the corn clubs agreed TO work one acre
OF corn in accordance with the instruc-
tons Of the department. Merchants,
bankers, and other public spirited citi-
zens throughout the country offered $40,
900 In prizes and government agents and
public school-teaehers co-Operated in the
organization and instruction of clubs in
nearly GO counties in the Southern States
According to the regulations making
awards of prizes, the following points were
considered: Yield, cost Fer busheI best
ten ears. and written history of the
crop. Not all OF the BOYS who won prizes
made the largest yields in their States.
The economical side was considered, the
farming profits, and a record had 10
be kept at the county corn show or fair.
IN one Mississippi county boy raised
as high as 1872 bushels TO an acre,
and Ike results in the other Southern
States showed the Dixie farmer what he
can do with his land II it is worked I'M
der the proper conditions.
The following are the names and ad-
dresses of the winners of the trip TO the
Capital and also the yields Of their re-
spective acres and the cost per bushel;
