 Attracting Many

Chicago, Nov. 29.-Thousands of farmers of twenty-four states anC half dozen Canadian provinces are
 matching skill for the s10,000 pre- | mium list offered by the Chicago | board of trade for the best samples of corn wheat, oats, barley, rye seeds and hay grown during the current year. The decision will be reached at
 the third International Grain and Hay Show which opened here Satur- day.
 Agricultural colleges, crop associa- tions, experimental stations, the United States department of agricul- ture and Canadian provincial depart ments of agriculture are represented by extensive exhibits showing the handiwork of wizards of the soil throughout the productive stretches of the continent.
 Prof. G. l. Christie, Purdue uni versity, superintendent of the exhibit, which is held in connection with the International Livestock Exposition, declared that the number of samples had increased 1000 since last year.
 Standing sentinel at the entrance of the grain show is a thirty-foot ear of corn. To build this symbol of the corn belt sixty bushels of corn were required This single freak ear, hog- raising statisticians declare would fatten from six to nine hogs from 1O7 pounds each to 227 pounds each in siXty-six days.

 Among other things that woman has to accomplish to win the "I" arc to belong to the athletic association, qualification for which is hiking test of twenty miles; to swim seven and one-half hours in half-hOur periods within six weeks time or to paddle canoe six miles and back four times.
