Coming down to more recent auto hen calls attention to the purchase of a 19131914 Chevrolet for the city electrician which car, he states, has had the hardest kind of use a car might be subjected to-" No automo bile dealer was given a chance to demonstrate a car in this instance, he asserts. He also questions the wis dom of the purchase of a 1913 Ford runabout that "has seen some terrible running" and "bought at price a 1915 should have been bought for for MT. Wainwright, superintendent of parks.
 As another grievance against the city MT. Cohen remarks the purchas SC of a used Hudson six for the police department. In this connection he asks the city fathers if this car is superior to a new machine. He also asks to be enlightened as to why local officials do not use better Judgment and buy cars at home where they can get parts. In conclusion MT Co., hens communication states that even when supplies for the garage are be- ing bought only one dealer was given a chance.

J. Test Every Ear
is Warning Sent
Out by X. X. Bliss

Special to Times-Republican.
Ames. Jan. 25.-"Test every ear"
That is the caution that r. X. Bliss.
head OF the agricultural extension de-
partment at Iowa State College, would
impress on the mind of every farmer
| in Iowa. .~
MANY farmers, especially in the
northern counties, do not realize how
little good seed corn they really have,
simply because they have not tested
it," says Mr.. Bliss, who, in managing
the Ames seed corn campaign has for
the past two months spent most of his
time investigating the seed corn con-
ditions in the northern counties of the
state.
THE situation in most counties Is
more than serious. Simply because
they have some 1914 corn left, many
farmers think that they are safe. I'm
less they test every ear they are going
to be awfully disappointed. This has
been shown in counties where we are
helping locate, test and distribute seed
corn. In Pocahontas county, where we
held meeting, almost every farmer
declared he had enough seed corn for
next year. When they tested they
found good deal Of it dead
In Worth county, altho all reports
are not in, it looks as If there would
be large shortage. This will have to
be supplied from other neighboring
counties. The reports from Cerro
Gordo county are more encouraging.
After a months search, ninety cribs OF
corn containing $4,000 bushels of corn
which seemed suitable for seed were
located. Eighteen cribs Of 1850 bush
els tested so per cent strong, ear test;
eleven cribs Of 10,S50 bushels tested so
to 30 per cent strong; thirteen cribs
of 10,100 bushels tested 40 to 80 per
cent strong, and fifty cribs of 10000
bushels tested below 40 per cent
Before we conducted campaign in
this county," said Mr.. Bliss. "the farm
ers really did not know whether they
had seed enough or not and had no
idea where they could get it. AS it
stands, if prompt measures are taken
in testing there will probably be enough
seed corn for every farmer in the coun
ty."

An Old Proverb,

about caring for his own health that by
the time he u forty years Of age he
can almost be reckcned az physician.
Why. then. Is there so much talk by
doctors against decentralization? A
woman can recognise all ordinary all
ments without calling on doctor. II

4 Three othsr Candidates.
rspecial correspondence.I

Washington, Jan. 25.-As the result
of q remarkable political situation
: which has developed in Ohio, Con-
gressman Nicholas Longworth may be-
come a candidate for the senatorship
It became known today that Mr.
Longworth. is considering the matter
and no surprise would be caused if al
any time he threw his hat into the
ring.
If Mr.. Longwerth, who is familiarly
known as Mick" Longworth about
Washington, should get into the race
for the republican senatorial nominal
ton, It Is admitted there would be a
stirring up Of the animals in the Buck
eye state.
AS the situation stands, the prom
inent candidates for the republican
nomination are from the northern end
of the state. Southern Ohio wants the
senatorsfip and feels It is entitled to
ii. Under the circumstances, there is
movement to bring out Mr.. Long
worth, whose home is in Cincinnati.
The chief candidates for the repub-
lican nomination for senator are
Myron T. Herrick, of Cleveland; Harry
Daugherty and former Senator Dick.
All are from the northern part Of Ohio.
Southern Ohio insists it is not getting
its share of the big plums.
Wife May Be Factor.
Whether the contest over, the repub-
lican nomination for senator will have
any effect on the candidacy Of Theo-
dore E. Burton for president remains
. be seen. 1t is not likely that it will,
<altho Mr.. Burton. like the leading can
didates for the senate, is from north
ern Ohio.
Mr.. Longworth Is not yet ready to
say whether he will run for the senate.
He is investigating the situation. He
will not enter unless he believes he can
win.
Should Mr.. Longworth enter the
race. his wife, who was Alice Roose-
welt, will be factor in the campaign.
Mrs. Longworth takes a keen interest
in the political game and knows it
well and would undoubtedly be of as
sistance to her husband.

SUNSHINE FOR SWINE.
Light and Cleanliness Best Antidots
For Cholera.

For Cholera.
West Liberty, Jan. 25.-There is only
one sure remedy, or rather preventa-
tive, for the ills to which hogs are
subject, including the cholera, accord
ing to DR.. Robert Jay of the Iowa State
College, who spoke at the Muscatine
county farmers institute in West Ii
berty The preventative is sunshine.
Cholera according to Dr. Jay, is not
directly due to improper feeding, altho
that may be contributing cause in
that it weakens the hogs system so
that the cholera, may more easily at
tack the animal. Filth also is not a
direct cause but like improper feeding
it may help to bring on the disease.
The cholera Is germ disease and
one which Is easily carried. Dogs and
other animals running from farm to
farm carry the. germs and infect the
hog premises, : DR.. Jay said He de-
clared, however, that it. had been
proved beyond doubt this summer that
the germs are not carried by birds to
the extent that the disease would be
spread by them. Quarantine for the
cholera therefore would seem to be an
effective measure in stamping out the
disease. ae5 ta.- @ asza4.
DR.. Jay advised the farmers not to
vaccinate their healthy hogs. keep
your swine away from filthy pens.
Let them out into the sunlight in a
clean, grassy pasture and you will be
doing, the best thing possible to ward
off disease he declared. 1.-THE hogs
raised on Iowa farms today are not as
sturdy as those raised in the earlier
days and while they conform to the
demands of the market and therefore
are the most profitable to produce. they
are also more liable to smccumb to
cholera and various other ailments"
DR.. Jay would vaccinate hogs when
they show the first signs Of being at
footed with cholera. After they have
been sick for several days the method
Is useless, he asserted.
DR.. Jay formerly lived in West Ii
berty, and is known to many of the
farmers. His address was therefore
particularly interesting.
