more CORN FOR NORTH DAKOTA

According to the latest Biennial
Report 81 the State Commissioner Of
Agriculture and Labor, the total acre
age BE corn in North Dakota in 1917
was slightly over half a million
acres. This Is less than 4 per cent
of the total acreage Of crops, includ-i
ing tame grasses, grown in the state
during the year. At this rate the
corn will occupy the land only once
in Is years. When we face the fact
that corn is the best cleaning crop,
and the further fact that weeds are
our greatest enemies, we are drawn at
once to the conclusion that q Is year
rotation cannot be expected to accom-
plish results. It is undoubtedly true
that the acreage in corn this year
lis very much larger than it was in.
1917, but even If we doubled the esti-
mated acreage we would still have
too little corn being produced.
Why grow more corn? limo other
argument could be. brought forward
than the fact that we can always grow
more wheat after corn than after
any other crop, that argument ought
to be sufficient but there are many
other reasons. In the first place,
corn has a superior feeding value
when fed to cattle. Armsby of the
famous Institute for Animal Nultri-
ton in Pennsylvania has determin-
ed that when Indian corn is fed to
cattle only Is per cent Of it's total
energy is lost. When mixed hay is
fed IA per. cent Of the total energy
Of the feed is lost and when wheat
straw is fed "a per cent, ofthe total
energy is lost. North Dakota needs
more corn. Corn is a superior feed.
Let's grow more corn. In the second
place, corn, due to it's conditions Of
culture, is better able to stand drouthy
weather than are many other crops.
Even under conditions of severe
drouth corn will often return the only
feed that. the farmer has in the
drought-yisited sections. Then too,
the growing Of the corn and the keep
ing q it clean helps to store water
in the soil for next years crop.
Droughty conditions r apt to oc-
cur in certain sections Of the state.
Let's fight drouth with corn.
This season promises North Da-
kota the best corn crop in the history
OF the state. The early picking Of
plenty Of seed corn should be attend
ed to by ;1every. farmer who appre-
ciates the value Of good seed. Pick
enough seed for two or three years.
Dry it carefully, store it carefully.
North Dakota needs more seed corn.
Nature has provided it this year. Are
we going to rise to the occasion and
store natures bounty?-H. D. Wal
ster, N. D. Ayr. College.

detail the location of The leaden
| ball which he picked up from the
floor near the spot where Schaui

mortal wound
Have you the bullet now?"
Eyes sir"
You may produce it."
Sheriff Miller handed over the
fattened leaden ball which passed
clearly through the body of the
pawnbroker. It was offered as evil
dence by the state over strenuous
objections of the defense
With the testimony of Sheriff
Miller the state rested its case
The defense, however, again placed
on the stand John Sullivan, former
police officer of the city. Sullivan
previously testified that Miller had
turned over a gun to him just
few minutes before the shooting on
the night Of Nov. 80 Sullivan said
the weapon was fully loaded. He
identified it as the one offered as
evidence by the defense. 1t is a

Sullivan Re-examined.

during his term of service as a pa
trolman on the Rock Island police
force.

Yes sir"
You may produce it"
The bullet, 3S calibe7', was Of
fered as evidence and read into the
court record over the protests OF
counsel for the defense
1t has been brought 7ut in the
evidence that on the night of the
shooting only five shots we're fired,

the air by the stricken pawnbroker
as he ran in pursuit of Miller. The
cartridge introduced as evidence as
the one taken by Schiejerl from

absence of a sixth shot.

strength to come back.
If these people could only re-

by giving attention to the stom-
ach-that is, removing the acid
ity and toxic po!sons from the en-
tire digestive tract, making 1t act

Everyone knows that the dis
