many county agents and country school
superintendent have written Miss
Shattuck asking for information as to
where playlets may be obtained.
Another evidence. keenly felt by the
public speaking department.. y the fact
that competent teachers OF public
speaking and dramatics are simply rot
on the market. The .Ames professor has
been in dire need of a coach for the de-
batting teams and she looked the west
over from cellar to garnet for II good
man. and there is none who wants the

Ames students are not playwrishts.
They are mot. possibly, because they
get so little college work in the lines
which inspire them to think OF the
stage as contributors. The senior class

BANQUET FOR coRNeRoWERs.
Seventy Tama County Farmers Are
| Guests of Toledo Canning Company.

Special to Times. Republican.
Toledo. Feb. 19.--Seventy farmers
of this vicinity We're guests Saturday
evening at four course banquet given
at Hotel Toledo by the Weir Canning
Company. The object OF the gathering
was to establish closer communion
between the farmers and officers and
stockholders Of the company, and to
get an expression from the corn
growers as to the acreage contemp-
lated for the coming season.
An interesting toast program fol-
lowed the banquet, W. A. Dexter serv-
ing as toastmaster and G. r. Walters.
Peter Muirhead. r. P. Kepler and
Manager Fl. V. Weir responding.
The company plans to install new
machinery to double the present
ca pacity Of the factory. At least 1000
acres OF corn will be required this year
to fill contracts. The past season only
40 per cent OF the orders were filled
and already contracts are more than
the factory with it's present capacity
can turn out.
Little difficulty is expected in OBJ
tn aiming the necessary acreage as the
company is quoting a price based on
lthe market price Of field corn raised In
1917. With field corn ut G5 cents or
less. $40 ton will be paid for sweet
corn on delivery. For each cent above
IS cents that 1917 corn sells at the
elevators prior to March /, 1918, an
additional i6 cents ton viii be paid
for sweet corn on day OF settlement.
This plan Ia proving very satisfactory
to the growers.
