Sawyer Farmer Raises Some Splendid
Corn

J.. S. Welty, pioneer farmer from
southeast of Minot, brot samples OF
four varieties of corn to the Indeper-
dent office Wednesday that will prove
a revelation to those who believe that
crops are poor in this district this
year. True, the wheat and other
small grain crops are light, but Mr..
Welty has shown what can be done
with corn. Several of the ears are
a foot long and all are large, even
rowed, with deep kernels and large
around. Mr.. Welty has 16 acres
only, but the yield will average not
far from SO bushels per acre. The
corn matured ten days ago and Mr..
Welty will save much of it for seed
and will have some to sell. Mr..
Welty has taken the blue ribbon in
more than one corn show and the
Independent wants to give other corn
gorwers fair warning, for he will be
in Minot with bells on in November
at the Corn and Potato Show.
Mr.. Welty has IA acres of Pioneer
White Dent, which he considers his
finest corn. The ears droop over
between the rows, making pretty
sight. He has one stalk on which he
counted nine we'll formed ears. He
has 2 acres of Minnesota l3, some
of the Burleigh mixture, his earliest
variety and some of Welty's Dukes
Mixture, semi-fint variety. Mr..
Welty says he never grew as good
corn in North Dakota before. His
son, Noel, has 80 acres of the Pioneer
White Dent, fully as good. A farm
er could have made $500 from al
80 acre field of corn this year, Mr..
Weltv claims.

SIX bills for new educational insti-
tutions passed the Senate this week
None of these bills should have been
seriously considered by the Legisla-
ture at this time when it is difficult
to even care for the institutions which
the state has already established
However, due to the endeavor Of GER
tain members to have the bill for
normal school at Trinidad considered
without being sent to the proper COM
nnittee. II was felt that if one bill for
a new Institution should be consi-
dered that way. they all should have
the same treatment; and according
" they were all placed upon the cal
endar the same day Senators Puffer.
Wilson and myself were the only
these measures Our reasons were
that the tablishing of these institu-
tions would mean that two years from
now, several hundred thousand dol
lars would have to be appropriated
by the state to build proper buildings,
and furnish proper equipment for
carving on the work for which they
were tablished: and We did not con-
slider that normal educational institu-
tions should be established through
political trades. In my opinion, a nor
NAL school should be constructed in
the southwest part of the state and
perhaps a junior college on the wes-
tern Slope, but they should not be
built until Colorado can afford to pro-
perly finance them. and careful con-
sideration should be given to their
location.
do not think that any of these
bills will get out of the committee in
the House.
Very truly yours.

European Art
Is Dumped on
United States

NEW YORK. Dec. by The
Associated Press)HHard times in
Europe have resulted In the dump
ing of literally thousands" of oil
paintings and other works Of art
into the American market. the ma
jority OF which have proved to be
fakes or copies of masterpieces in
the opinion OF Gustnvius t. Kirby,
Of the American art gallery.
Many Of these originals Were
thought genuine by their European
owners. who had inherited them and
had never had occasion to examine
them until the var took away their
wealth.
American homes OF tomorrow will
be far moro artistic and iivable
than were those of yesterday. Mr..
Kirby believes, for there is a de-
cided swing to the purchase of tap
estries and other art works for util-
itarain purposes rather than merely
for arts sake.
