Mr.. Knoll and it was pleasant one.
The hum of the threshing machine
has been displaced by that OF the en-
silage cutter in many communities or
the county. Again this fall the silo
has come to the rescue of the farmers,
especially in those districts where the
hot winds were most effective.

two miles north of Ricketts,. He is

Hogging down corn is just as good
a practice on the farm this year as in
any other year when corn prices
were cheaper ''In fact, it is better
practice now than ordinarily is the
way the matter is put by John M. Ev-
ward, of the agricultural extension sta
ton at Ames. It's better because it
costs so much more to husk corn
now; there is talk of charge of from
s to IA cents for husking and the hogs
can do it much more cheaply and they
will do a good job of it, Mr.. Evvard
has made a careful study of hogging
down corn for a good many years and
he has found that on hundreds Of
farms in the state where the practice
is followed there is big saving on
every bushel of corn. Some years ago
that saving was found to average near
ly 8 cents per bushel on 149 Iowa

THE BURY THE HAMMER CLUB
Some one raised the question at the
meeting this week, if one must never
point out the faults that really exist
in his home town as everywhere else?
Certainly not, was the universal
opinion. But use some brains and
loyal spirit about it. Forget your
home towns faults when you are talk
ing with strangers and visitors. Don't
try to show how superior you are by
magnifying all the little faults in it.
And when you point out defects in
your talk among the home folks, do it
in positive way. Remember that
criticism, unaccompanied by any def
mite suggestion for remedying the de-
feet, is useless and destructive. New
er point out a fault without raising
the question, What can you and l do
to remedy that fault?
There are some politicians who al
ways look at criticism of their selfish
schemes as Knocking" frequently
they need knocking. But that is q
very different thing from ridiculing
and detracting positive efforts for CIV
ic betterment. A..

greatest change in type was the Ches-

The farmers say it is much less work
this season to pick their seed, for it is
not necessary to hunt all over the field
for desirable corn for seed. The sea-
son is at least three weeks ahead Of
last year, and, while the dry weather
in some sections has cut down the
yield considerably, the quality is far
better than last year.

A. "A. Rauch, writing for the Ida
Grove Pioneer, finds the condition Of
our corn crop much the same in Ida
county as it is in Crawford. He says:
1.-THE main corn question of 1917 was:
will it get ripe?' The main query
this year is: How badly has the corn
been burned?' l think that am safe
to say that in the south half of Ida
county that the corn crop is cut in two
what it would have been, if we had
had plenty of rain. But what corn we
do have will be good and ripe. There
will be no soft corn such as we had
last year The bulk will not be more
than half as large as in the south half
last year, but we will get more feed
out of it than last year. There is a
vast difference in corn fields this year.
Some fields are fired badly, while 9TH
ers in the same neighborhood are not
injured at ALL even on the same kind
of ground The thinner the corn, the
better this year. Many fields have
good stand and are not fired much.
The corn fodder this year will be very
brittle and will not feed well-that is,
the corn that is fired badly. 1t is sur
prising to find the corn as good as it is
with so much hot and dry weather
and so dry to start with in the spring
and SO little rain. In some parts of
the county we find some careless straw
stacking. 1t looks like they did not
care to save straw. Not knowing
whether it is carelessness or the want
Of more help, it is our advice to save
the straw, not knowing what is in
store for us. We do not know that
there will be a long time to feed be-
fore grass will come. II you think
you do not need the straw, some of
your neignbors may be mighty glad to
get it before the winter is over Save
the straw, as we'll as the grain"

According to feeding experiments

contains in feeding value the equiv

pounds of good mixed timothy and

has the feeding value of 800 bushels
of corn and 4S tons of good hay stored

when the hogs husk their own corn

with him good things for Battle
Mountain. While on the coast he
had been exerting his influence to
bring about the erection of a smelt-
err at Battle Mountain. His efforts
were not fruitless and within the
aext 60 days ground will be broken
for a smelter and a concentrating
plant here.
The site selected by the company
which Mr.. Burge represents is a
very convenient and favorable one,
consisting of 40 acres of land ada
cent to the loading platforms now
being used by producers shipping to
Utah and California shelters.
The underground method of con-
veying the deadly fumes from the
smelter is to be used and for that
reason no i'll effects will be expert
enced by the ranchers in the near
vicinity.-Scout.

RESUME WORK
AT NATIONAL

N. p. R. Hatch, well-known Ma
tional mining man, was a passen-
ger on No. 6 yesterday passing
through to Golconda. Mr.. Hatch
has been on the sick list for some
time and has been at Pasadena and
other coast points for the benefit
of his health. He states that he is
greatly improved and that he will
soon be ready for an aggressive cam
paign of development at the camp
of National.
He stated that he had placed an
order for equipment and supplies and
will start development on the Chez
foo property at an early date. This
development, he said, will be OF
considerable magnitude, as he has
received considerable financial sup
port to carry out the plans formu-
lated.
With the operation of the Cheefoo
estate Mr.. Hatch said that he had
arranged for development work on
the National Nevada company's prop
erty. This development, he said,
will consist mostly of extending the
long tunnel in to cut the big ledge
that outcrops along the surface and
has a good showing of ore in an
upper tunnel and in surface work
ings.-Humboldt Star.

Governor Boyle has estimated that
there are 5000 men from Nevada

when the second draft Is COM
pleted there will be more than 1000
under arms. The figures do not
include enlistments in the aviation
corps or the engineers and since
the estimate was made enlistments
have been heavy. Many other men.
who enlisted at army posts In other
states do not show on army records
as being Nevadans.
