FARMERS SHOULD
SURE OF CORN

The following statement was issued
Tuesday by County Agent Kline:
Many seed houses in different parts
Of the corn belt are selling seed corn
that is not suitable for Wayne county
For instance one firm has purchased
st. Charles White corn, native corn
of Missouri and with special machine
removed the red chaff from the tip
end of the kernel. They are selling
this corn as Boone County White corn
grown in Indiana. Such corn will only
produce stalks and leaves with no
ears.
IF a company cannot produce an
affidavit showing exactly where the
corn was grown do not buy it. This
office has on test a sample of corn
from a'crib Of $50 bushels of corn in
Wayne county that the owner claims
will terminate about 80 per cent. This
is 80 day yellow corn and looks
excellent upon examination with the
eye. Within five days a report will
appear in the papers in regard to the
termination test and the location Of
this corn"

Earthquake Shocks
Make Mountain Crolu

LOS ANGELES. Cal. April 23.-
Stock taken Of the havoc wrought by
the series of earthquake shocks,
which were felt in southern Californ-
Ia. western Arizona and Utah and
which covered period of thirty
hours beginning at 1892 p. m, Sun
day, strengthened today the belief
that the disturbance originated in the
granite backbone of the San Jacinto
mountain, about sixty miles east of
here.
The greatest property damage &C.

the foot of San Jacinto mountain.

suffered only little less severely but
the destruction diminished rapidly as
distance from that point increased
Much interest was aroused here by
the belief of old residents of San ia
cinto that the quake resulted in
changing the contour of the summit
of San Jacinto mountain. 1t was de-
clared that formerly the central and
northerly part of the peake were
higher and now the southerly peake
appeared to be higher.
The total damage to property in
the earthquake zone is roughly esti-
mated at half a million dollars.
The number Of deaths as a result
of the quake remained at two and the
injured at about twenty.

New Measure Divorces
Liquor From Cabdrets
(By Associated Press.)

CHICAGO, April 23.-That the cab
aret will go out of existence in Chi
cago on May l, seemed certain today
when the anti-cabaret ordinance be-
came a law.
The new measure divorces liquor
from cabaretS and dancing Under it's
provisions instrumental music is the
only form of amusement which can be
provided in places where liquor is sold.
The present cabarets may continue
as now only on condition that they be-
come soft drink" places and give up
their licenses to sell intoxicants. So
far there has been no indication that
any of the places will change from
wet" to dry" class.
