IOWA CORN
BEATS WORLD
Grain Is Raised on Five Continents
and In % Nations But Hawk
eye State Leads
ALL

When we boast that Iowa is the
greatest corn-producing area in the
whole world, we usually think of her
as merely outstripping all the other
American states, Prof. Bohumil Shi.
mex, a botanist at the State univer-
sity, points out Few Iowans. he says
know that corn is raised on five CONT
nents and in twenty-five nations.
While almost Is per cent of the
worlds total output OF this grain
grows in America, there are other
countries in which 1t has come to be
rather important grain, the university
botanist declares. Argentina, at the
present time, is our most dangerous
competitor in the production OF corn.
In this South American country, how
ever, only flint corn flourishes, and
the quality is not SO good as 1t is in
Iowa
Mexico and Argentina together pro-
duce almost 10 per cent Of the worlds
corn crop, but in Mexico as in the
South American republic the quality
is not high usually. Austria-Hungary
with close to six per cent Of the
worlds total production ranks first
among the European corn growers.
Rumania and Italy produce about
eQuhl dluOulLS anu toSCShNA, eaAASos
reach the Austria Hungary total.
Bulgaria; France, Portugal, Russia,
Servia and Spain are all producers OF
corn on a small scale. but Germany
does not raise bushel If corn were
the single element by which the allies
would win the war, Germany would
have to stop her fight tomorrow, for
almost ninety per cent Of the worlds
corn strength is lined up against her.
Japan, Egypt, Australia, New Tea
land and the Philippine islands are all
producers of Iowa's leading grain In
limited amounts. The Egyptian corn
is much similar to that grown in Ar
gentina, but the Australian crop is a
dent corn resembling the variety most
common In Iowa.

"A story is being circulated to the

ia emphatically not true. No articles
whatever, either knitted or otherwise,
made by Red Cross workers and turn

IF any wilful case Of this sort

that an actual instance OF the above
character occurred wherein an in

There is no way to prevent people

Washington, Sept. 1.-The Treas
ury Department is about ready to
start a colossal drive on the thou
sands of income and corporation tax
dodgers whose frauds and evasions
have been uncovered through months
of painstaking investigation by hun
dreds of revenue agents and inspec-
tors.
This drive on the tax dodgers, it
is calculated by treasury experts. will
bring into Uncle Sans war chest not
less than $300,00O,0OO which have es-
capped the tax collector since the in
come tax law went on the statute
books
The roundup of the tax thieves
will not be limited to any particular
state or section, but will be nation
wide. Into the drag-net will come
not only New York millionaires. but
hundreds of rich farmers, small-town
bankers and business men who have
been found by the revenue agents to
have been more fragrant defrauders
of the treasury than the metropolitan
plutocrats who come first to mind
when tax lodging Is mentioned.
Many pillars of the church and phil
anthropists, it is said, have been
caught in the meshes of the treas
ury's net.
1t has now become known that ever

less than S320,000,00O a year, agents

This investigation has been made
more comprehensive during the last

the passage of the revenue bill of last

required to furnish the treasury with
