SERIOUS ACCIDENT IN RAILROAD YARD
On Thursday afternoon as Ed. Siler
Of Burke and Thomas Strange of
White River were coming into town
in the formers car, they were struck
by the freight train from the west
which was just arriving in the yards.
Mr.. Siler was driving his car, a Ford
Coupe and did not observe the train
in time to avoid it. There is no blame
to attach to the train crew in the
matter AS it was equally impossible
for them to see the car.
Mr.. Strange was severely injured in
the mishap. His foot became entang
led in the pilot Of the engine and he
vas drawn along the track. for some
distance badly bruiSing and lacerat-
ing his head and face and breaking
his leg between the knee and ankle.
Aid was given by the train crew and
t~owEspeople at once and the injured
man was brought to DR.. Kenaston's
office and given medical at ention at
once. The injured man was uncon-
scious for a long time but regained
consciousness during the night and in
the morning was taken to the hoSpi-
tai at Lynch for treatment.
Mr.. Siler seemed to have escaped
serious injury, but his ear is a COM
plete loss.
The crossing in this city, when APP
preached from the west is a danger
Gus one owing TO the fact that there
is no opportunity of seeing a train
west from the crossing until one is
upon the tracks, and this is especially
true If there is a string Of ears on the
elevator track.

FARM BUREAU NEWS NOTES
By A. S. GRAY, County Agent.
SELECT SEED CORN BEFORE FROST.

SELECT SEED CORN BEFORE FROST.
The most satisfactory way TO select
seed corn for next years planting. is
TO select the seed corn in the field be-
fore the first killing frost. When Sc
Letting seed from the field at this
time, ears can be selected from the
healthiest and strongest looking stalks
with position Of ear just at a medium
picking height on stalk. The advaDt-
ages of seed selection are many. 1t
enables the farmer to determine not
only the good characteristics Of the
ear itself, but the stalk upon which
1t grew. This Is important in the
selection Of high yielding corn, in
healthy growing stalks, and early ma
turing hills 1t also assists in select
ing ears from plants free from diSeas-
es, as smut, canker and worms.
In selecting seed corn, it is well to
make a special trip through the corn
fields, equipped with a picking sack
for n row, which can be emptied at
the end Of the row gathered all at
once. 1t is well to pick about twice
the amount Of the seed needed, for
this al be either kept as an emerg-
cy for the following year, or sold as
seed corn, at a good figure after hav-
ing been tested for termination.
Ears should be selected from stalks
which have yielded best in competi-
tion with other stalks in the same
hill. The ears should preferably be
on short shanks, which allows the
ears to take adropping position. Ears
with broken shanks should not be Sc
lected because this usually indicates
diseased stalks.
The ears should be examined and
only those with deep well denied ker-
nels, straight rows, well filed and OF
the proper size and type for the var
iety, should be selected.
Select the corn before the first kill
ing frost, and as o as corn is ma
ture. If corn can be well dried and
hanging In a well ventilated and dry
place before heavy frosts, there will
be slight damage to the getm from
frost, but If 1t is frosted in the field,
when the corn is still full of moisture
the germ may be considerably weak
eded.
A ffnr tho cnaI ic cn1nntn1 In tla
field it should be looked over and close
ly culled before hanging up to dry,
for every ear picked in the field is not
a seed ear.
The storage Of the seed corn is just
as essential as the selection. The
chief problems are to provide a place
where moisture content Of the corn
can be reduced to the point where the
germ will not be injured by frost, and
where adequate ventilation is posi-
BILE.
Seed corn should never be stored in
sacks, piles, or placing one ear direct
ly on top the other. But it should be
hung up allowing air space between
each ear
Tying the ears In strings Of ten or
twelve ears with good Irvine is good,
Tie the ends together. Of two equal
sized pieces Of twine. AS the ears are
laid In the cords Of twine the Irvine
Is crossed placing n ear above the
other and alternating the tips and
butts.

FARMERS MARKETING ASSOCIATION
SETS RECORr.

SETS RECORJ.
A record. which has never before
been approached in the history OF live
stock marketing, when the farmers
W marketing agency on many days
handled from % to % per c1nt Of the
total business on the livestock ex-
change, was set by the Central Co.
operative Commission Association of
st. Paul, which Is the terminal live
stock market for $50 Minnesota Live
stock Shipping Associations.
The Association has topped the cat
tie market selling a car load Of 100
pound steers at SO a hundred, and all
departments of the selling agency are
able to get the best prices on all class
es Of stock because Of the volume Of
stock that they handle daily.
From August s to 81 they handled
2S,0l2 head of stock, i'm 440 cars and
did Ia per cent of the total business
Of the exchange, with 80 competing
old line commission firms. From Sep
TENDER l. to September %, they hand
led 81. l43 head or 46S cars, which was
nearly 20 per cent Of the total busi-
ness of the exchange.
This is a farmers organization, d..
ing a good job for the farmer and it
is less than two months old. Similar
farmers cooperative commission COM
panies are doing business I'm Sioux
City, Omaha, st. Joseph and other
big terminal markets.
On account of the magnitude and
strength, these organizations are get
ting the greatest opposition ever
known in the history Of livestock
marketing. Therefore every livestock
producer should lend his support and
assistance and all If his livestock
should be shipped to the farmers ter
minal marketing agency. At Sioux
City and Omaha it Is the Farmers Un-
ion Commission Company. These
companies return excess commissions
on the patronage dividend plan.

lack Of electric light service, for that

of the situation seems to be that the

he violated his franchise by cutting
