The w. X. Kellogg National
Corn Trophy

The selection of the grand champion
sweepstakes and the award OF the
Kellogg trophy were made on general
points of superiority.
The ear Of corn grown by Mr.. James
is of Reds yellow Dent variety. 1t Is
10 inches long, 1/2 inches in clrcum-
ference, and has 20 rows OF kernels,
6 to the inch in the row, average 5/S
of an inch in depth, and 2I16 OF an
inch in width. 1t is indeed very
correct type OF, yellow dent corn.
Mr.. James. the winner, is ylgor-
Gus farmer about forty years of age
and Of pleasing personality, man
who has given careful study to corn
culture. and who has achieved his sue
cess as a grand champion winner only
by years of hard work and painstak
ing seed selection and careful breed
ing from season to season.
Illinois growers are especially elat
ed over the result for the reason ina
this is the first time in four year
that the honogs have been wreste'
from the state Of Indiana. Last year

corn growing can be understood when
it is stated that the Kellogg Toasted

nresident. has an output requiring III,

feature is that while the Kellogg PROD

Of the people who have heretofore
been passive sympathizers with tne

that whereas military operations

are not bands of men in arms against
the government.

ton is the lawsessness that is every

the senate in cutting out the puhlica-

afternoon that he will be forced 10

that milk inspection in all cities over
10000 in population will have to stop
until July 4, when the bill becomes eff
fective.
The fact that the publication clause
was stricken from the bill was dis
covered by Commissioner Barney sew

that senators in committee in consid-

NOW we find ourselves with but lit

partment until July 4, when the ap-
preparations made in the act will be-
come available" said Commissioner
Barney yesterday.
ut will be necessary for me to cut
down my force of inspectors. This
means first, that milk inspection in all
cities in the state of over 10000 pop
ulation will have to stop. 1t seriously

two months will be the businest Of the
