RIOT IN CHURCH.
Forty Policemen Required to Handle
Warning Congregation.

Cleveland, O., March 1S.-Scores were
elected from the church and arrested
and children were trampled on by yell
ing men and women during a riot at
St. MichaePs church, Scranton road and
Clark avenue. Men and women, yelling
and hooting at Rev. Paulus, pastor OF
the church, were taken out as fast as
40 policemen could handle them.
Outside a mob of three or four hun
dred parishioners fought for entrance.
The trouble, the elimination of discord
that has existed between warning fac
tions of the parish for the past few
months, following the appointment of
Rev. Mr.. Paulus, reached an acute
stage when the pastor scored the re-
bellious faction in his church and read
letters Of the same tenor from Bishop
Farrelly and the apostolic delegate at
Washington.

season.
Cause Of Astounding Loss.
|, Where an epidemic of typhoid
fever occurs, while the first care
must be to the sick, every effort is
made to ascertain the cause, as it Is
realized that unless the cause is
found and proper precautions taken,
| the disease may go on indefinitely.
In like manner while endeavoring
by testing Of seed corn to obtain the
best possible termination, we should
ascertain the cause Of the present
trouble and prevent a recurrence of
present conditions. And while with
typhoid it might be difficult, to de.
termine the real cause, fortunately in
the matter of seed corn the cause is
readily found by those who have full
knowledge in regard to the proper
method of saving seed corn.
Following dry summer the autumn
Of 1911 was wet and cold, and corn
did not dry well in the field, and the
practice, altogether too common, of
gathering seed corn and trusting to
atmospheric conditions to dry it, by
hanging it in corn cribs, graneries,
barns or other outbuildings, proved
no better than If the corn had been
left in the field.
The excessive moisture in the at.
mosphere prevented drying and the
cold weather in the early part of No.
vember destroyed the vitality Of seed
corn, thus exposed, while corn for
seed gathered in September and TAX
en- at once into the dwelling house
where there was fire heat and dry
atmosphere, retained it's vitality and
proves in termination all that could
be desired.
l have referred to the failure Of
seed corn in 1910, and it will be re-
membered that we had severe frost
on the night Of October IL, 1909, and
coming unexpectedly, those farmers
who practice drying their seed corn
in "a cool airy place" paid the pen
atty by the failure Of their seed corn
to terminate and the seed tester
was again called into use, with the
result as I have shown with mathe-
NAUTICAL accuracy of a loss of at least
$40,000000 to our state.
But never in the history Of our
state has a single farmer, who gath
cred his seed corn in September and
placed 1t at once in his dwelling
house, where 1t had fire heat, failed
to secure a good stand so far as the
terminating quality of his seed corn
was concerned.

GIVES VIEWS ON
CORN QUESTION
FORMER MEMBER OF BOARD OF
CONTROL FAVORS KEEPING
SEED IN HEATED ROOM.

Des Moines, April 17.-John Cow
ME, former member. of the state
board of control, has issued the fol
lowing statement giving his position
on the seed corn question::
For the fourth time in nine years
our great state is confronted with a
condition in regard to seed corn that
will involve the loss of millions of dol
lars, that under no circumstances
can now be avoided, although by care.

thorough testing, the loss wills be

Of seed equal to corn that was saved
in a proper manner, for 1t will, even
when it terminates be weak and slow
growing, lacking in vitality and even
with the most favorable conditions,
will not produce a full crop
And all this trouble, vexation and
loss could have been avoided, special
trains on our railways to warn the
farmers would have been unneces-
sary, seed corn testers would never
have been heard of, if farmers would
adopt the only sure method of saw
ing their seed corn to insure per-
feet termination.
In an experience of over so years
saving seed corn in Iowa, I had but
one failure and then it was my own
fault in trying to save my seed corn
without artificial heat.
That lesson cost me $4,000, and
ever since my seed corn has, when
gathered, been placed at once in
chamber over the dining room where
it is fire dried, register over the
heating stove in the dining room
supplying the heat.
For more than half a century with
the single exception of the one year
noted in the foregoing, I do not be-
