BOY OF IL BURGLAR.
Youth at Cedar Rapids Guilty OF
Many Crimes.

Cedar Rapids, Aug. 23.-torres'
Lake, who lives with his parents at
21l North Fifth street west. is only
II years old but already has burg
larry record almost uneQualed in local
police annals and is regarded by peace
officials as the equal of any adult
burglar who has spent lifetime in
learning the fine points of his trade
The boy was arrested for the second
time within q week and within few
DAYS after he had been sentenced to the
state reform school but was paroled
during good behavior.
The particular burglary for which he
was arrested was that of enteri1lgs the
home of C. b. Crull. I'LL First ave-
nue.. where he obtained a considerable
amount in cash. Mrs. Crull saw him
leave the house. He was identified by
Mrs. Crull and later confessed the
burglary.
A few DAYS ago young Lake entered
q home directly across the street from
the Lake residence in Fifth street west
While the family was sitting on the
lawn in front of their home he entered
a rear door and ransacked the house
from cellar to garnet. Among other
houses he visited was that of a. G.
Cooper. 90 South Third street west,
where, on Aug. II. he entered the house,
found the bed room occupied by Mr..
Cooper and stole his gold watch. He
was in Quincy, H., few weeks ago,
and told the police that he entered two
or three houses there, one of which
was the home of policeman on the
Quincy force The Lake family moved
to Cedar Rapids recently from Quincy
In company with three other boys,
who had robbed houses in Cedar
Rapids, Lake was arraigned in juvenile
court a few days ago and was ordered

Cut corn for gsihge when the kernels
have passed the milk stage and are De-
ginning to dent. Az this period the
greatest amount of food material can
be obtained and the best quality OF
silage made.
The cutter should be adjusted to cut
the corn in short lengths, with three
fourths of an inch as the maximum
length. In general the finer the fod-
der is cut the more easily and more
compactly it can be packed and in con-
sequence the better the quality OF the
silage.
Thorough Packing Necessary.
Too much stress can not be laid upon
the necessity of thoroughly packing the
fodder in the silo so as to exclude the
air as much as possible. 1t isN upon
this one thing that the keeping OF silage
largely depends. A device consisting
of jointed pipe, or some variation OF
it, attached to the top of the blower
pipe is at present in use for distribute
ing the cut corn fodder in the silo. BY
the use of this distributor it is pos
sible for one man to scatter the cut
corn evenly and at the same time 10
tramp it. Without the use of this de-
vice it is necessary to have at least one
extra man in the slo to fork the mate
rial over so that it is evenlys packed.
Besides the saving of one mans labor,
the distributor does away with the
nuisance of having the loose materlai
fIyipg around. thus annoying the man
in the silo, and also lessons the danger
of being struck by some foreign object
that may have passed thru the blower.
Add Water at Cutting Time.
Oftentimes the corn fodder is so dry
when it is cut that it is necessary 10
add water to make up Tor the ue-
ticiencv in moisture and provide for
the proper packing of the sllo. inns
water is most easily added to the
blower when the corn is being cut, ana
it is also more thoroughly mixed with
the cut material in this way.
For the top layer of the silo it is good
practice to use heavy green stalks
from which the ears have been re-
moved. This forms a heavy layer that
packs well and at the same time con-
tains a smaller amount of food mate
rial SO that the minimum loss is sus-
tanned if it spells. Various methods
and materials have been used for Gov
ering the top Of the silage to prevent It's
spoiling. None has given complete sat
isfaction. but the one mentioned above
has given as good results as any, espe-
cially when the top layer was THOR
oughly wet down and packed firmly by
tramping. The best practice is to COM
mence feeding as soon as the sllo Is
filled. in which case there will be no
loss Of silage thru decay.

Logsdon urged the grocers mot to
make reports OF violations to food adj
ministration headquarters unless they
had evidence behind their reports. He
stated that out Of 10000 reports, 5000
have been investigated and the major
ity found lacking in evidence.
l.. T. Crouch, representing the Des
Moines grocers, urged his associates
not to be slackers in the carrying out
of the food rulings to the minutest de-
tail. In conclusion he asked that a
rising vote of thanks be extended to
the men serving on the food admin
istration in response to which every
man in the audience rose to his feet
and cheered.
Urges Egg Gambling.
w. B. Barney, state dairy and food
commissioner. addressed the audience
during the afternoon session, upon the
Importance of sanitation and other OBJ
servance of food laws. He urged the
Importance of egg Gambling by dealers.
Jesse Sturgeon, of Otumwa, de-
scribed his economic system Of book
keeping. which enables the dealer to
take a "birdseye view of his business
at any time. Full instructions of the
system will be sent to every county
food administrator in the state, and
grocers will be encouraged to practice
this system in their business.

Governor Makes Address. -
Informal discussion by the grocers
was followed by patriotic address by
Governor w. H. Harding. who sug-
gested that sugar could be foregone
until the close of the war if people re-
membered that there would be plenty
of sweets for everyone when our boys
have licked the Huns" He defended
his foreign language edct and de-
nounced his critics.
The morning session was devoted to
addresses by George F. Lichty, former

be sufficient to preserve fifteen dozen
eggs; and the quantity needed to pre-
serve larger number Of eggs will
be in proportion.
First select a five-gallon crock and
clean it thoroughly, after which 1t
should be scalded and allowedvto dry.
Second, heat a quantity Of water to
the boiling point and allow it to cool.
Third, when cool, measure out nine
quarts Of water, place it in the crock,
and add one quart of sodium silicate,
stirring the mixture thoroughly.
Fourth, place the eggs in the solution.
Be very careful to allow at least two
inches of the solution to cover the
eggs,
Fifth, place the crock containing the
preserved eggs in cool, dry place, well
covered to prevent evaporation. Waxed
paper covered over and tied around the
top of the crock will answer this pur-
pose.
Limo Method.
When water glass can not be OBJ
tanned the following method may be
used in it's stead. Many consider this
method entirely satisfactory, tho in
stances are known in which eggs so
preserved have tasted slightly Of lime.
Dissolve two or three pounds of I'M
slaked lime in five gallons Of water
that has previously been boiled and al
lowed to cool. and allow the mixture
to stand until the lime settles and the
liquid is clear. Place clean, fresh eggs
in clean earthenware jug or key and
pour the clear limewater into the YES
sci until the eggs are covered. At
least two inches of the solution should
cover the top layer of eggs.
Sometimes a pound of salt is used
with the lime. but experience has shown
that in general the lime without the
salt is, more satisfactory.

STOP THE WHEAT FIELD RoBBEH
Easy Way 20 Increase 1919 Liberty
Wheat Harvest and Add to Profits.

There is robber in American wheat
fields that steals millions Of bushels Of
grain annually. But the 1919 wheat
crop can be made burglar-proof, as far
as this particular robber is concerned,
and food for thousands Of soldiers
Will be saved. The disease known as
smut is the thief and a simple treat
ment of the seed is the preventive.
There are four kinds Of smut which
occur on wheat and barley. Two Of
which, hunt or stinking smut and COW
cred smut are effectively controlled
by soaking or dipping the seed in or
spraying it with formaldehyde solu-
ton. Loose smut is controlled by
treating the seed grain with hot water.
Seed to be treated for smut should
be cleaned in a tanning mill. Use for
maldehyde GO per cent solution) d.
luted at the .ate of one pint to forty
gallons Of water. If the soaking meth
cd is used, allow wheat to remain in a
tub of the iisinfectant ten to twenty
minutes. and barley thirty minutes to
two hours. To get the best gerYnina-
ton results, the grain should be Gown
as soon as -reated. If this can not
be done it should then be spread out
and dried for improper drying after
treatment may injure the seed.
Solution Of the same strength men
toned should be used fir the dipping
and sprnkling methods. In dipping,
after thorough cleaing and grading,
the seed grain is placed in gunny
sacks. which should be filed NOT more
than half full and tied at the top.
