Guyot de Boismenu, French
engineer, director in n factory turn

duced larger diamonds by electricity,

they can be made still larger. Mois-

process was so costly that IL was
impossible to develop the system with
profit. Boismcnu's diamonds are one
eighth of an inch and grow at the
I rate of one hundredth of an inch
an hour, consequently if the electri-
cal process is kept up long enough
it should be possible to produce a
diamond as large as a pigeons egg.
Boismenu discovered in the course
| of his work that the fused carbide
could be decomposed by electricity
J and he began TO experiment along
this line. His first success was in
1908. He fed fragments of carbide
into the furnace slowly, gradually

keep on the current more than twel-
We hours, Boismenu has not been
able TO produce diamonds larger than
one eighth of an inch.

Morning Grain Letter.

Chicago. Feb. 16.-Weekly forecast
covers warmer temperatures in mid
die Of week with another storm period
at end of week. Temperatures over
entire country past rs hours show min
imum of zero to 10 above. More snow
has fallen and winter wheat belt has a
fair covering. Newspaper weekly re-
views favor idea that large wheat ex-
port business is proceeding. Stronger
and much higher prices at Minneapolis
appear to be anticipated on basis
spring wheat reserves are 80 per cent
below a year ago. Tone in all grains
is firm and question of lower prices
IS probably left to advent OF the March
reserve guesses due in three weeks.
Leading news item of weekend COW
ers a statement by George Hellman,
local trader of some prominence, that
corn supplies are smallest in Is years.
He figures county elevator supplies,
eastern supplies and corn in transit at
80, 0OO. 600 below last February. His
ideas are based on reports of cash
handlers, and he predicts smallest re-
ceipts in years until June 1. We have
reports from New York state that con
sumers prefer Argentine 10 American
and will use it right along. On the
basis of primary movement of the past
week, the corn visible may increase
little. but the oats and wheat visible
should decrease today. Our Mr.. Zones
is back from the Waterloo Grain Deal
ers' convention. He says Iowa grain
dealers are friendly TO corn. North
west Iowa will have corn to sell, but
other large sections of Iowa are buy
ing. Seems TO be a good supply of
oats in Iowa.

Harris. Dear Friend: l write
you briefly about my trip TO Ur-

We arrived at our destination
Monday evening. Tuesday we reg
istered at the agricultural build
ing and we're enrolled on the short
course list. This course consisted
of lectures and the study of live
stock, farm products, farm me-
chanics. in fact almost everything
pertaining to the farm. The lee
lures were held in the large audi
forum and were given by the
ablest and most experienced men
that the university could secure.
Most of these lectures were illus
trated by slides and moving pic
lures which gave the students a
much clearer idea OF the different
subjects.
The stock judging was held in
large brick building that the uni
versity has just erected at a great
cost.
Saturday afternoon guides took
us around and through most of
the important buildings and ex-
planned what each was used for
and what IL contained. We also
visited the large farm and barns.
The farm is large and II was quite
interesting to walk around il and
see the many experiments that
are being constantly carried on.
The barns are all large and roomy
and are models of cleanliness, ar
rangement and economy.

the two lots of cattle was plain
to be seen. This shows that sil-
age is not a complete ration in
itself and that it needs other food
elements to make it complete.
Speaking of silage one OF our
lecturers told us that the first siio
was built in Virginia in 1876.
There were several silos at the
experiment farm.
They have one farm called the
Twenty Acre Farm" where they
keep 90 cows on what is raised on
these 20 acres.
They keep the following breeds
of cattle at the farm, Shorthorns'
Herefords. Angus, Holstein, Jer
sey and Guernsey. OF hogs they
have the Duroc Jerseys, POLAND
China. Chester Whites. Berkshires
and Tamworths. They have sew
eral breeds of sheep and many
varieties of poultry. The horses
were mostly draft horses OF Gil
ferent breeds.

We went to the Y. NJ. C. A. where
we were given the address of the

Tuesday morning we began cur
studies. We attended three lee
lures and two stock judgings each
day. 1 like to judge horses the
best; We judged mostly draft
horses which they kept there in
the barns.
We also judged beef cattle
which were experimental with,
feeding some of them on silage
and others on mixed rations.
In the herd of dairy COWS there
were mostly Holsteins and some
Jerseys and Guernseys.
In the hog judging saw my first
Yamworth hogs. l did not like
the looks of them as we'll as the
other breeds of hogs; they were
bacon hogs.
One afternoon we went to see
the barns where the stock was
kept: another we went through
the agricultural buildings, New

building which l enjoyed most of
all.
