MIR. WHEEL Err ATTACKED BY
BULL

Mr. II. Wilson Wheeler, only son of
County Treasurer, W. A. Wheeler. had
Il narrow escape from death ON Sunday
week when he was attacked by an in
furiated Guernsey bull at his home
near Highland and only got away after
being numerically beaten. When tn"
animal got out of the barnyald Mr.
Wheeler started after him with pitch
fork, thinking he could run Il prong
thru Il ring attached to II chain linked
around the big fellows horns an thru
two rings in his nose.
Upon sighting Mr.. Wheeler the Graz
ed brute charged. knocking hi owner
down and sending the fork several feet
away, In Il twinkle the huh was ca
his victim rolling him on the frozen
ground, Screams for help were un-
answered, Mr.. Wheeler finally saving
himself by catching the rings in the
bulls nose and twisting them until the
animal gave up enough to allow his
owner to climb over u fence.
Mr.. Wheeler made his way to the
house and a physician when summoned
was unable to find any bones broken.
His body, however, was literally cover
ed with bruises, hundreds of impress
sions being made by links of the chain
on the bulls head. For several days
he was confined to bed too sore to move
but is now able to move around little
hit.
Some eighteen months ago this same
Guernsey got Mr. Wheeler down and
broke two ribs before he could get II
grip on the nose ring and crawl behind
a tree.

THE LINCOLN CORN CRIB EN-.
COT RACES EATING MORE
CORN

Out in Nebraska where they have
more corn than they know what to do
with the Lincoln Crib proposes to store
away some of the surplus which corn
growers are finding 50 burdenIOmp.
This crib, started by the Lincoln Cham
Der of Commerce, was 80 successful
that other curnboit organizations aIc
considering similar cribs.
Instead of being huge ,tolngr
house for corn this is an Organi .ati0n
Of about half n thousand men and wo.
men who call themselves the Corn Eat
crs Of America. The purpose Of the
organization, which is making rapid
growth IS to direct attention 10 the
value and economy of corn and it, pro-
ducts a. food and to help reduce the
surplus Of this grain. The only fail
urc in connection with the organization
of tn" Lincoln CRIB, according to the
Chamber of Commerce was that there
was no banquet room in the city large
enough to accommodate the hundreds
who wanted to join aS charter mem
brrS
With the help of the United States
Department of Agriculture food hui
l"tlnR and circulars an exclusive corn
menu was planned. The first course
consisted of cream of corn uu gIatin.
Corn cake tobacco smoked IN cOrncOb
pipes substituted for llavanas AT the
end Of the dinner and in between cUur-
SEES Of corn fed Nebraska pork loins,
corn Sautr ihomiuyD with green pep,
per, corn on cob, corn bread. corn salad
with pImrntos, COrnSlhlch pudding,
corn cookies, and corn candy.
The critical corn situation was de
pIctrd by play IN which King Corn,
too feeble to support himself, figured
~ the chief character. with him sat
Queen Minnie Wheat. Characters
which depicted tn" plight Of the corn
grower wcr" Hard Times, iii Tayc4.
Idle Labor and Speculation, but they f.
naIly were crowded from the stage by
High Prices aud Prosperity. A prOcla-
nation was issued by the High Chan
ccllJr calling upon all 5ubjcct5 Of the
King to eat corn once a day.
Members Of the Lincoln Crib, appIr-
catinR the splendid corn preparations
which had been served them at the
banquet, pledged themselves to eat
more corn and corn fed meat and to
encourage others TO do so. The menu
Of corn foods combined with the rlay
got the message across in n big way
with the result that many other cities
have requested the same show ard
plans for o. ganlzing corn eaters cribs
in other cities Of the State and pr ad
joining States. Possibly this ""rIb"
helps account for the large number Of
requests coming from that section for
Government bulletins on different
ways Of serving this valuable and eco
nomIcal food IN such tasty pr"pa,a-
tIpns.

EDGEWOOD SOLDIERS RESCUED

Majors Gore and Heritage, who are
stationed at Edgcwood Arsenal were
rescued from CAROLS Island Friday
morning by searching party after

morning the two men went ducking
and met with fair success until in an

attempting to rescue il they fell in the
icy water, and soon after crawling out
their clothes frozc stiff as a board
Fighting for their lives they struggled
to CAROLS Island and were there ma

The bitter cold first got in its terri
bic work on Major Gore, and in an
effort to keep him awake Heritage
pounded and thumped him until his
body j. literally black and blue. when
finally found Heritage was sitting on
GOre's arm vainly attempting to keep
them from freezing.
II was not unit! the men had been
out some ~ hours that their absence
was noted Then searching party
was organized one boat load going 10
Bush river and the other to the Gun
powder. The Bearch"rs' fight against
the bitter cold and ice was beyond
description. Finally one party dig
covered the unfortunate men but their
boat was STAYED in by the ice and that
meant just that many more to be- giy-
ed.
After hours Of fruitless searching
some Of the men in the second party
declared they could stand the cold no
longer and were going TO return to
quarters. Turning TO the major in
charge a civilian employee said. eff
you're man you'll 20 with me" Thcv
went, and soon the soldiers were found,
Gore being Unconscious and Heritage
Just lowering on the edge Of conscious

upon them. Major Gore developed a
