EVOLUTION OF THE BARBER.
Modern Artist Has Lost Some Old
Time Flavor and Picturesque
ness.

The barber shop might be thought
to be immune from the modern spirit
but it is catching up with the pro-
cession. A suggestion of this mod
ernity is found in speed contests in
harbering, now being held in various
cities.
In such a contest at Boston the
other day, one noted tonsorial ar
fist shaved man and cut his hair
in six minutes and fifteen seconds.
The job was declared first class.
The leasurely old time barber shop
never entered speed contests. Bar
hers with conversational graces were
reputed far and wide. They carried
on merry perflage with waiting Gus
toners, while they placidly stropped
their razors and deliberately scraped
chins.
The old time barber did not worry
much about cleanliness and sanitary
ideals. But he was strong on tradi-
tional ideals of manly beauty as
cherished in his profession. He
would never brush mans hair away

AIIamakee's Seed Corn.

Postville, Ia.-One highly import
ant discovery was made as a result
of the short course just held in AL
makee county.
About one-third of the seed corn
exhibited at all points where the
course was held, except at Postville,
was found to be dead.
Apparently the germ in the grain
was frozen when the early cold
spell struck this section. 1t was
thought that the corn was fully ma
tured and dry, but County Agent
Klosar believes that there was just
enough moisture left in il when it
was cribbed so that the unusually
early and severe cold weather froze
the germs and the corn will not
grow.
Hereafter, the John Cownie plan
Of picking seed corn before it can
be touched by frost and keeping it
in warm dry place all winter will
be followed in Allamakee county.

IOwAN BUYS $4,000 sow.
Record Price is Paid for WrigIey'
Prize Animals.

A record was established last week
in the sale of thoroughbred hogs
when thirty-six Poland China sows
were sold at auction by William
Wrigley, Jr., at his Green Gables
farm, near Lake Geneva, Wis, for
$55, 1915, an average of $1,554S4 for
each animal.
Twenty-six of the sows, all bred to
The Clansman, the Poland China
boar purchased by Mr.. Wrigley for
$4,000, bought $5O,425, or an
average price of $1,939.42, a figure
never before approached in the hog
business. The nearest previous re-
cord price for sows was an average
of 1929.
The sale was attended by more
than 500 stock raisers from every
state in the corn belt and from as
far east as New York. A special
train over the Northwestern road
made up of five coaches and two din
ing cars, conveyed 29S visiting buy
ers to Lake Geneva from Chicago as
the guests of Mr.. Wrigley.
