PRIZE OFFERED FOR BEST
DISPLAY OF LOCAL CORN
Chamber Of Commerce Fathers Plan
for Encouragement Of Near
by Growers

The Chamber Of Commerce has de-
cided to hold a corn contest to dem
onstrate that good corn can be grown
by territory as we'll as in the central
and western states.
At a meeting of the board Of d.
rectors last night $50 was appropriated
to provide three prizes for the three
best corn exhibits shown in the rooms
of the chamber November 30 to De-
cember /. Each exhibit is to consist
Of three ears The champion corn
growers of Ohio will be in Washington
at that time and probably will take
great interest in the display. Ar
rangements for the exhibition are in
the hands of the house committee. Of
which John F. Slaven is chairman.
The directors of the chamber gave
their approval to the plan of marking
the route of the Lincoln highway
within the District and erecting large
sign posts at Philadelphia and Gettys-
burg calling attention to the Lincoln
memorial and other points of interest
as its share of the expense of pro
viding the markers. The Board of
Trade and Retail Merchants Associa-
ton also are cooperating in the plan.
1t was decided to hold a ladies' night
at Rauschers November Is.
The board decided to mako an effort
to have Washington selected as the
meeting place for the 1916 convention
Of the Paint. Oil and varnish Dealers
Association. Entertainment is to be
provided for the delegates should the
convention be held here.

CALIFORNIA PRIZE WINNERS
GREETED BY Mr.. HOUSTON
And, Being Real Boys, They Aren't
Very Sorry That the Long Trip
Is Almost Over.

When the twenty-nine champion boy

night from Baltimore, to stay here
three days, woke up this morning and
learned that President Wilson would
not be able to greet them on account
Of being out of the city the twenty
nine champions rolled over in their
beds and went back to sleep again. It's
easy enough to grow two potatoes
where one grew before and to make
pig get as fat as butter, but a 5000
mile trip from Berkeley. Cal. and back
again is hard work.
The boys. however. did manage to get
up in time to be received by Secretary
Houston at the Department of Agri-
culture at II o'clock. This afternoon
the boys are inspecting the depart
ment and seeing moving pictures at the
department under the auspices of o.
H. Benson, in charge of the boys clubs
work. The trip is being made under the
auspices of the University of Califor-
mia. The boys will go sightseeing here
tomorrow and Saturday and then leave

Panama-Paciic President Says Date
Will Not Be Changed.

The Chamber of Commerce of the
United States is in receipt of tele-
gram from Charles c. Moore, president
of the Panama Pacific international ex-
position, announcing that the exposi-
ton will close December 4, as original
ly intended. For the past several
months there has been agitation in
favor of preserving the exposition
buildings. and this has given rise to the
false rumor. the Panama-Pacific OFF,
Gals say, that the exposition will be
kept open after December L.
President Moore has received infor-
nation through letters, kilograms and
conversations leading him to fear that
many business men are planning to
visit the exposition after the date fixed
for it's closing. He has asked the ma
tional chamber to make the announce
ment that there will be no change in
the original plans, and that December
will mark the end of the exhibition.

KING OF LEGUNuNOUs CROPS.

There will be q big extension IN
the acreage of alfalfa in the eastern
section of the United States in the
near future. In many places In that
section there is much the same feel
ing toward alfalfa that the farmers OF
the west had toward the westward
extension Of clover. Many have the
idea that it can't be grown, and that
ends the matter, in their minds.
One Of the principal troubles with
eastern soils is they are deficient in
humus and nitrogen. Nitrogen for
most crops and on most land can be
obtained by the growth of legumes
much cheaper than it can be pur-
chased In the growing Of legumes,
select the one that will produce the
best returns in feed, under most con-
ditions. Alfalfa is the best legume to
grow where 1t will do we'll. 1t will
produce more feed that has a higher
feeding value, on land that is adapted
to its growth, than any other legume.
There is no reason why alfalfa
should not be the principal legumin-
Gus crop in the east, on most soils,
just as it is in the west. And the re-
turns of the farmers in. the eastern
section Of the United States would be
much greater If a larger acreage OF
this crop was grown.

TRANSIT ANTING METHOD OF GROWING ONIONS

the open ground. The seedlings are
hardened" by increased ventilation
and exposure and by withholding
water. When ready to transplant they
should be about the size Of a lead pen
ell and rather stocky. The plants are
Lifted from tho seedbed and the roots
and tops are both trimmed somewhat.
Various methods are employed for
handling the plants in setting, but one
thing is necessary and that is straight
rows-for ease In cultivation. The
transplanting process consists mainly
in pushing the root end Of the seed
ling into the soil with one finger and
then flrming the soil about the plant.
This work is very laborious and can
only be performed economically by
very cheap labor. A small plow. such
as is usually included with the wheel
hoe attachments, is often employed for
opening a furrow in which to set the
small onion plants. As the plants are
set the soil is drawn about them by
hand. In transplanting, all inferior
plants should be rejected, thus insur-
ing a more perfect stand and develop
ment.

WHICH KIND IS YOUR HOMER

The desolate hOme-no paint on the
house, no honeysuckle over the door,
and no time or money for the COM
forts within that 60 to make q house
a. home--such conditions are far
reaching In their effects, especially
upon children. No amount Of school,
ing can dim the memory or change
the effect on the boy of such home,
for the picture that Is burned into
that boys brain lives forever. Is 1t
any wonder a boy raised under these
conditions hates the sight Of COW,
and even the farm itself, and is going
to get away from 1t forever at the
earliest opportunity?
In contrast to this, there are other
farm homes where the question Of
how to keep the boys on the farm
never arises. Surrounding these
homes. are neatly moved lawns, with
flowers, trees and vines around the
painted, well-kept house which con-
tains a piano, books, and other COM

was brought in as part OF the regu-
lar rotation about 1886. Previous to
that time alfalfa had been grown to
some extent, but it was not thought
possible to break it up successfully.
From 1886 on, the yield of potatoes In
creased and potato growing as an in
dustry became one of the leading oc-
equations Of the farmers Of that sec
ton. From 1855 to 1890 the ship
ments averaged 1000 to 1900 cars,
while now the shipments from this
one district are about $4,000 cars.
Potato blight has given trouble
more or less from the beginning, and
the potato beetle has caused some loss
at times In his history Of Colorado,
Mr.. Boyd says, I'm 1889 fourteen
thousand pounds of Paris Green were
sold at Greeley and Eaton for spray
ing potato vines for the striped potato
beetle. Locusts have occasionally
caused some damage, but on the
whole, adverse conditions have been

sections of the United States and the
growth of the industry has been nor

CATION, large acreage of potatoes per
farm and rotation of crops. The meth
DDS of potato culture in Colorado diff
fer somewhat from those of other
sections of the country. At first the
methods of irrigation and cultivation
best suited to the conditions here
were not we'll understood, but
since it was found that alfalfa
could be successfully broken up
and that deep cultivation was most
beneficial the methods have not
changed to any considerable extent.
The preparation of the land for potato
growing is probably the most import
ant item of the work. The difference
between new land broken for potatoes,
old land and alfalfa land is most
marked. The new land produces
very clean grade Of potatoes, but does
not give so good a yield as land either
preceded by potatoes or alfalfa. AL
falfa land gives the largest yields and
is less liable to disease than where
