SWEET CORN SYRUP HAS
COMMERCIAL POSSIBILITIES
Conducted Product OF
High Grade-May Replace Sorghum
and MoIasses for Cooking. &.

University Farm. st. PAUL.
Chemists of the University Of Min
nesota have undertaken to determine
the possibilities of making a good
quality of syrup from the juices OF
sweet corn stalks which are more or
less wasted after the ears have been
removed at canning plants in the
state. The last legislature appropriate
ed $4,000 a year for two years to aid
the chemists in this work, and FAC
tory was installed in connection with
the canning company's plant at Wells,
MINI.
The first years work was in the ma
ture of a preliminary study of the corn
plant, with the object of determining
the course of development of the SUI
CARS in the stock, the yields per acre,
and the characteristics of each variety.
A mass of information was acquired,
which, together with the syrup pro-
duced, will help to decide the COM
mercial feasibility Of the proposition
after two seasons of work.
Some 20 samples Of syrup were
made from various varieties of corn,
cut at different stages Of maturity, and
grown in. different localities. Some
of the syrup has excellent quality
says Prof. J. J. Willaman, chemist in
charge, land shows the possible COM
mercial development Of the project.
The syrup is sparkling clear, reddish
to dark amber in color, tastes some
what like sorghum syrup, but is not so
yiscous as the latter. 1t can apparent
" replace molasses and sorghum for
cooking purposes, although many peo-
ple have expressed their liking for it
as a table syrup.
Six to Ten Gallons Per Ton.
"The yields of stalks were lower
than was anticipated. The smaller
varieties, such as Golden Bantam and
Crosby, yield about is to tons OF
stripped stalks an acre. The larger
varieties, as Country Gentleman and
Evergreen, yield from 4 to z tons an
acre, and field corn from to 8. A
ton of stalks yields about to 10 gal
Ions of syrup of standard density
Thus from 80 to 60 gallons an acre or
corn can be expected. Next seasons
work will show how much the cost OF
gathering the stalks and making the
syrup Will bt. s.-

says, more than $500 young men have
been trained, many of them having
since achieved national distinction in
dairy lines.

STIMULATING Eqq Production.

The use of electric lights in poultry

unless properly managed. The whole
idea of illumination is to make the
hens eat more food by making thell

more they lay; but to force produc

ghost In America. This might be in-
scribed in the little adobe church

Long ago. at the time of the first
Spanish nvasions of southwestern
America. Spanish frlar was cap
tured by the Indians. Although kept
as prisoner for time, he later won
their confidence and as years went
by was admitted to their peculiar re-
ligiOus and political circles.
At last the rumor reached the tribe
of the advance Of Coronado in search
Of treasure. The Indians feared
treachery on the part of their Span
ish friend and one night he was
stabbed TO death by one of the more
skeptical members of the tribe.
The medicine men were Mortified at
the crime, for not only had they come
10 respect the Spaniard's Christian
teachings. but had made him par
tIcipator in their own religion. And
above all, they knew what might be
expected of enraged Spaniards II they
should discover the crime.
Buried Near Altar.
The priests body was hastily
wrapped in a sheet and without any
prayer or ceremony buried deep In
front Of the altar in the little Chris
tian church in Isleta.
Coronado's men never learned OF
the crime, but few years later a pc
culiar mound appeared in front Of the
altar In the little church. The horri-
fed natives observed the mound was
exactly the length and width of IA
mans body. Soon the hard earth floor
cracked and one morning. just II

Rev. DR.. George H. Ward, former
" rector of the Episcopal Church
here, but for the past several years
rector of the church at Leesburg,
and who recently rendered his re-
signation as rector at the latter place
because of age and declining health,
has decided to make his permanent
home in Crescent City, and last week
purchased the Otis Reynolds home on
Park street. Both he and Mrs. Ward
are here and are making their tenn
porary home with their daughter,
Mrs. Frank Gautier. DR.. Ward, who
is conceded to be one of the most
scholarly churchmen in the south,
was for more than rs years rector
of the Church of the Holy Comforter
at Crescent City and is therefore not
unknown to the older citizens of the
place, all of whom are welcoming
him with open arms. DR.. Ward, is
in his S0th year, but except for a
touch of asthma, is in fine physical
condition. His mind is as active as
ever. Mrs. Ward was ever a popu-
lar lady here and the return of this
popular couple to Crescent City. is
cause for much rejoicing. DR.. and
Mrs. Ward will spend some three
months in a trip north before settl-
ing in their new home.
W. A. Russell, having completed
his 60 day sentence to the Florida
legislature, has returned home but
little worse for the wear.
John Rafferty, has just completed
building a fine new fence in front
of the Mrs. Cornelia Lyon place on
Park street. 1t is said that this pro-
perty is to be otherwise improved
this summer.
Mr.. and Mrs. E. H. Williams left

Delaware, where they will attend the
commencement exercises of the Wo-
mans College of Delaware from which
their daughter, Miss Cardelle, will
graduate From there they will go
to other points in the north before
returning home late in the summer.
Robert Atkinson has returned from

he has been a student during the

for the vacation months, but as yet
is undecided.
