state labor commissioner. at one time
president of the state federation Of la
bor does not look for a railroad strike
at this time. Mr.. Urick has had a wide
experience in labor matters and has

Il am inclined to believe that strike

missioner Trick yesterday, but when
the matter comes up again ! look for
a strike.
These flare-ups come every so Of
ten. For several years the railroad
workers. when they would present their
claims for an increase in wages, were
met by statements by the railroads as
to their limited earning capacity. The
railroad workers finally decided to COM
pile some figures for themselves. So
they hired man who for several years
had been chief clerk for the interstate
commerce commission at Washington.
He worked for two Years compiling sta
tistics on the railroads. He found out
about their land grants. figured out
about how much of their stock was wa
tered and what dividends they were
paying. In fact he secured great mass
of information. These figures the rail-
road workers used when they came to
make up their wage agreement again.
The workers are now relying on these
figures to prove that their claims for
increased wages are just
Commissioner Trick does not believe
there Is any way to estimate what it
will cost Iowa if a strike should enSue.
Everyone would be affected either di-
rectly or indirectly. Business in short
time would be paralyzed. If disas-
trous strike should come it might mean
eventually governmental ownership of
railroads, some of the officials here be-
neve.

lOWA'S CORN ASSURED
n. c. Wallace Declares Recent Rains
Will Add 100000 Bushels to
YeId-Showers General Over State
Weather Bureau Optimistic.

Des Moines, Aug. 15.-Rain which
has fallen in Iowa during the last
week has added at least 100000 or
1S,00O,O 900 bushels TO the Iowa corn
crop. according 10 an estimate made
yesterday by H. c. Wallace. Of Wall
aces Farmer.
In dollars, the rain has added IS,
900, 900 value to the Iowa corn crop
Not only has the Iowa crop been
greatly benefited by the rain, but the
whole corn belt, which has received
an average OF one inch Of rainfall
during the week, has benefited to the
extent Of 100000, 900 bushels, Mr.. Wall
ace estimates.
J. ". Smith of the United States
weather bureau is even more opti-
mistic in his predictions. He says
that an inch Of rain over the corn belt
al this time should increase the crop
al least 50O,oOo,0o0 bushels.
Had this rain come a week later,
my belief is that the corn crop would
have been about the same amount
short that the rain added to it, said
Mr.. Wallace. This is just the critical
period for corn. Usually we place the
critical period as lying between July
Is and Aug Is.
Corn Two Weeks Late.
This year, however, because Of a
cold. wet May and June, corn is two
weeks late. That fact has made II
late in Iasseling and extended the
critical period about ten days. So
that I should say that right now is
about the middle OF that period 1t
will end about Aug. 25. If we get
plenty Of rain before that time we
should come near TO having a record
breaking crop"
If the rain had come earlier, how
ever, 1t would have been Of greater
value to Iowa farmers. Mr.. Wallace
estimates that a rain now is worth
only about three-fourths as much as
one coming in the latter part Of July
would have been.

NEW DEADLY WEAPON.
english Officer Says Invention Viii
Now Infantry and Entanslements.


Winnipeg. Aug. 15.-The British war
office has under consideration at the
present time the plans of a new engine
OF war designed by Lieut.. Col A. G.
Fonseca, of the Winnipeg battalion.
The new arm is essentially designed for
the destruction of barbed wire en-
tanglements. earthworks. sandbag re-
doubts and Notifications, and for re-
polling the attacks Of infantry.
Armed with these weapons, declares
the inventor, the British troops need
never be delayed by barbed wire en-
tanglements.
1T is simple mechanical contriv-
ance," he said. Two rifles. or two ar
er. are required to operate it. There
need be no extra crew. The riflemen,
in the case of rifles. and the gun crews
in the case of artillery. are sufficient to
do untold destruction with it. The
beauty of the machine lies in its simpli-
city. 1t is wonder that nobody ever
thought of before for IT'S worth will be
incalculable in modern warfare.
THE two guns are fired simultane-
ousiy by means Of a synchroniZing at
tachment. The machine travels with
the speed of shell or rifle bullet. This
protects it from the effects of enemy
rifle or artillery fire.
Against this engine of war attacking
infantry would stand no chance at all
Each machine operates on frontage
of about ten yards and all troops with
in that frontage would be moved down
in a manner more deadly than a ma
chine gun"

Alkali Makes Soap
Bad For Washing Hair

contain too much alkali, which is very
Injurious, as it dries the scalp and
makes the hair brittle.

and entirely greaseless It's very cheap,
and beats the most expensive soaps or
anything else ali to pieces. You can get
this at any drug store, and few ounces

Simply moisten the hair with water
and rub 1t In, about teaspoonful is all
that is required. 1t makes an album

SALT As MEDICAL AID.
Good Remedy to Repair Waste Of Elk.

cessive Sweating.
Correspondence Associated Press.)
| Berlin, July 30.-Encouraging results
from the administration Of common salt
as a remedy against the enfeebling
night sweats of consumptives and
against excessive Precipitation in the
case of marching soldiers are reported
by Company Surgeon Link in an article
in the Munich Medical Weekly.
Sweat contains about six parts of salt
in the thousand. A hard march Of a
few hours on a hot day results in the
emulation of five to six liters Of sweat,
with salt content Of "a to 30 grams.
strong night sweat of consumptive
exudes as much as 2A liters. causing a
salt loss of Is grams. This amount is
far from unimportant, since the blood
contains altogether only about twenty
grams of salt, an amount about cores
ponding to the maximum daily con-
sumption of salt in foods.
DR.. Links first experiments were
made with sufferers from tuberculosis.
1t occurred to him that their excessive
fatigue mornings might well be due to
the loss of salt, and that this might be
gan by giving level teaspoonful of
salt (above five grams) in a small glass
of water just before patients retired.
The result was a greater freshness and
absence of WEAKNESS on the following
morning, and the patients either had no
night sweats or else very slight ones.
All patients except those suffering also
from stomach, catarrh and high fever
stood the salt dosing without any i'll
effects whatever.
His experiences led DR.. Link to eX-
pertinent with healthy persons, and es-
pecially soldiers. About 100 soldiers of
one regiment were given a teaspoonful
of salt at 5:45 o'clock in the morning
before beginning their days march.
After march of nearly twenty miles in
muggy weather the soldiers thus dosed
exhibited much less fatigue than their
comrades. And their perSpiration was
but a fraction of that of the others.
