Big Losses Recorded.
PREFER LONG, SMOOTH CORN
Nebraska Farmers Believe That Kind
of Ear Will Stand More Grief
Than Other Types.

Over a large part of Nebraska they
have come to the conclusion that
corn with along, smooth ear will ordi-
narily stand more grief and yield more
than corn of the so-called show type.
The Nebraska station has four years
of experimenting which indicates that
the large, rough type of ear yields an
average of 81 bushels to the acre: the
short, rough, 81 bushels; the short,
smooth. So bushels, and the long. slim,
smooth, 80 bushels. For some reason
corn with long slim, smooth ears that
partake slightly of flint characteris-
tics, stands trouble better than the
more fancy-looking corn of central
Iowa and Illinois.

TRIES TO KEEP
VIEWS SECRET
Foster Seeks to Exclude Report
ers When Quizzed by Sen
ate Committee.
SAYS PAPERS ARE UNFAIR
chaeI r. Tighe Answers Gary-Head
of Steel Workers Union Says Mills
Head Misinformed by His Fore
men and superintendent.

Washington. Oct. 6.-Charging that
he had not been fairly treated by the
newspapers. William H. Foster. secre-
taIy of the steel strikers committee,
told the senate committee investlgat-
Ing the strike that he would answer
Il question as to whether he was in
favor of organized government If the
correspondents were excluded from
the room.
The committee took no action on the
request. and Senator Mcclellan, Demo-
Graf. Tennessee, and Chairman Ken
yon pressed for answer to the ques-
ticn, which had been put by the for
lner Foster said his views had
changed, but that he was unwilling
TO say how far in the presence of the
correspondents.
When Senator Mcclellan first asked
his question, Foster laughed. The SEN
ator then read from book. which Fos-
ter agreed he had written, declaring
social revolution necessary in the
United States to secure workers
rights.
I've repudiated that pamphlet"
said Foster, "but l don't want my
views banded about by a lot of pre-
JUDGED lying newspapers TO the dam
age of the strikers"
Reading from the pamphlet on Syn
dicalism" section saying that ''the
wage Garner proposes to ignore the
code of ethics and wrest from the cap
italistS the industries they have stolen
and bring about the revolution by the
general strike" Senator Mcclellan
asked Foster if he entertained those
views now:
''TlI say l do not" Foster said in
lowered voice.
Giving a detailed history of union
activities in the steel industry. Michael
+. Tighe, president of the Iron. Steel
and Tin Workers union. told the com
mittee that the United States Steel
corporation. instead of leading the
van i'll advancing wages. as Judge Gary
has claimed. has Jagged behind our or
ganizatiOn."
Information given to you by Judge
Gary" Mr.. Tighe said, was not first
hand evidence gained from practical
knowledge of the industry, but, in
stead, consisted of the statements
made to him by his employees, fore
men and superintendent. 1t was far
and away from being the truth about
the industry"
Mr. Tighe repeated the charge that
the Steel corporation early in its his
tory had appropriated $20,OO0,000 TO
fight unions and gave names of his
informants. The unions, he said, had
never sought the "closed shop" but

How Others Can Help.
WAY TO SAVE FOOD

prepared by the United States De-
partment of Agriculture.)
About 100000 carloads Of
fruit and vegetables are shipped
to market every year in refrig-
orator cars.
The average loss on these
shipments from decay is esti-
mated at 11.8 per cent, or a
total of 1920 carloads-about
1,1S0,000,000 pounds of food.
These figures do not include
losses on cars shipped without
ice or with insufficient ventila-
ton, among which there is also
heavy loss of fruits and vege-
tables.
Improved refrigerator cars,
packing. loading, and bracing
would reduce these losses, ac-
cording to United States depart

FARMERS WASTING MONEY
One of Chief Ways Is Failure to Keep
Farming Equipment in Proper
Condition.

No one likes to make money any
more than the farmer, yet he is the
person who is most prone to waste it.
One of the chief ways in which he
wastes money is by his failure to keep
in proper condition his farming equip
ment. Many kinds of machinery which
are used in one season and not in
the others should be stored away when
not in use.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
For every thousand persons in the
United States there is at least one re-
frigerator car. loaded with food prod
uets, rolling along the rails. These
cars carry billions of pounds, and more
than three-fourths of them haul fruits
and vegetables. Much of this produce
is highly perishable, and must be
moved quickly, while temperatures are
kept down by the use of ice.
Unless one is given to travelling, his
breakfast fruit or dinner salad is like
ly to have covered more miles in trip
of days than he has In as many
months, and all the way from field to
table perishable fruits and vegetables
must be watched over and cared for
by group of workers who are as busy
as mother travelling with a baby in
her arms.
Sometimes refrigerator cars arrive
at markets with their fruit or vege-
tables damaged by heat or shifting of
loads through faulty containers, or dis
eases and rots developing during
transit. This means. not only loss
of foodstuffs, but increased prices for
the sound produce that arrives on the
market-losses that in the long run
must be borne by wholesaler, retailer,
producer and consumer This itself is
serious enough, but, according to the
bureau of markets of the United States
department of agriculture there is
a present shortage of refrigerator
cars in this country, and the more
cars that bring damaged produce
10 market the fewer available cars
there are to carry perishable food to
the cities.
What Can Be Done About It2
If, and this is where science steps
IN, the present equipment of refrigera-
tor cars should be modernized, and if
more care were taken in loading, brac
ing and hauling perishableS in these
modernized cars, losses of food would
be reduced and our scanty supply of
refrigerator cars made to carry more
actual food to market.
At one large market last July 127
cars of peaches were inspected by the
bureau of markets. Most of these cars
were ''in trouble" as the inspectors
say. and they represented 81 per cent
of the total July arrivals at that mar
ket. Although brown rot was bad
this year among peaches, and account
ed for much loss and sales of as low
as ten cents crate for rotted fruit,
1t is pointed out by refrigerator car
men that some of this loss is due to
poor refrigeration which could be
avoided by proper construction of cars
and better loading and handling meth
DDS.
Big Losses Recorded.
Estimates based on reports of carlot
shipments of fruit and vegetables,
compiled by the bureau of markets,
show about 100000 shipments moving
under refrigeration. From reports of
inspectors at Chicago, Cincinnati and
Pittsburgh from May 10 to July 10,
covering 1S9 shipments under refrig-

he had said he made a profit Of less

Swift's statement Of modest profits
