Bow Tells How He Grew Prize Corn

Pipestone, Mimi, Feb. 14.-"Four
things are necessary in order to get a
large yield of corn from an acre, and
it will apply just as we'll to hundred
acres, namely, good soil, good prepar-
alton, good seed and good cultivation, !
says Vernon Adams, the only prize
winner from the southern part Of the
state in the recent state corn contest.
Young Adams raised 1l8A bushels
Of corn on one acre on his father
farm. The soil which he cultivated
was deep black loan over clay sub
soil, like nearly every foot OF the farm
land in the southern part of the state.
The land was we'll drained. 1t had
been cropped continuously nearly
forty years without pasturing or hav'
ing clover on it and had been fertllizec
but four times. Part Of the grount
was potato ground and part corr
ground from the year before. The
potato ground yielded the best. In
ground was plowed May |, eight inches

American Public Is Wild With
Spending

St. Paul, Feb. IA. That the modern
industrial community, in its widest as
we'll as it's narrowest scope, rests on
credit was the declaration here last
night of James j. Hill, principal
speaker at the eighteenth annual BAN
ouet of the St. Paul Association Of
Creditmen. Mr.. Hills address was on
the "Use and Abuse of Credit.
'The invention of money was a
long step toward civilization but the
invention of credit was a greater, -
declared Mr.. Hill. 'Outside of
small retail transactions and the set
tlement of balances, actual cash Is
little used. The entire amount of
money of all kinds in the United States
last year was less than the volume of
our foreign trade alone. Without ade-
auate agencies for creating, maintain
ing and regulating credit. responsive
to business needs in it's construc-
tion, the country would come to full
stop as surely as if it tried to draw
with horses the trains now running on
it's steam railways.
Contract or expand credit unduly
or improperly, however, and the effects
may be incomparably worse than those
of the widest experiments in the cur
rency tinkering that the world ever
has seen No cause has been more
prolific of misfortune in the past.
1.-The commonest form of abuse Of
credit in the past has been the issue
by governments Of cheap money.
Possibly the world has grown too wise
to fall again into the trap of this de-
lusion. But it is doing or permitting
practically the same thing in other
forms. The excessive capitalization
of trusts and of some less spectacular
enterprises has much the same effect
as an issue of cheap money. Stocks
and bonds are put out which represent
little or nothing in the shape of ac-
tual values.
''So-long as we have no effective
laws compelling all stocks and bonds
TO be paid for at their full face value,
either in cash property or services al
a fair valuation, so long will this evi
continue.
| ssNeither does the performance o.
combinations, syndicates and corpora
tions organized to sell bits of litho
graphed paper tell the story. Th'
effect is produced by the increase O
public Indebtedness everywhere. Th'
issue of state, city or county bone
affects credit volume more powerful.
and produces more directly all the ef
fects Of an increase in money volum
because it is acceptable as collat
eral for nearly or quite its face valu
in credit issues.
