Guthrie was to preside at the din

dedicatory program. Jackson several
months ago lamented the "resigna
ton" of Guthrie as head Of the State
conservation body, in a statement to
the press, while Guthrie had offered
no resignation.
Salary Affair Over
It is said Jackson ordered Guthrie
to slash $1,000 from the salary OF
Richard Lieber, conservation direc
tor, and after Guthrie followed or
ders several months later the Gov
ernor denied he had made such a
demand. The salary recently was
r. restored to it's original figure.
1t was likely that Guthrie would
introduce Jackson, who was a head
liner on the program.

From Higher Lands

Ihese farmers must depend upon
farmers on the higher lands for next
years seed supply. All over the
state the weather is very unfavor-
able to drying corn in the field.
which makes 1t especially urgent
that farmers safeguard next wears
corn crop by selecting their seed
from the standing stalks as soon as
the condition Of the field will permit
such work. The need Of field selec
tlon also Is emphasized by the re-
suits Of community and individual
seed corn testing the past two years
which show that the only dependable
source OF seed corn is that from field
selected seed.
Selecting seed corn before killing
frosts gives the farmer n chance 70
pick ears from healthy. vigorous
stalks which are free from disease.
In Dry Sheds
AS soon as the seed corn Is picked
1t should be stored In dry sheds or
buildings where there is a good cir
culation Of air. The ears should
be hung by the husks or placed on
racks so that the ears do not touch.
III the ears are piled together, even
for few days, there is danger of
molding or heating on account OF
the high moisture content of the
corn. A dry, well ventilated base
ment is preferred for home storage
by many corn growers ana should
be more generally used where avail.
able.
Where corn is stored in outside
sheds, quick drying is necessary to
avoid early freezing temperatures.
This may be facilitated by opening
the doors and windows and by keep
ing the ears from touching. This
year the damp and rainy weather
makes 1t especially necessary to
make special provision for drying
seed corn to prevent molding. In
many cases it may be necessary to
resort to artificial heat. In such
cases good ventilation is most impor-
tant. In most cases, however, there
is sufficient amount OF mature corn
which, II selected at once and stored
in well ventilated places, will soon be
dry enough to escape either molding
or injury from frost.

ond only TO Senator Curtis OF Kan
sas in directing the proceedings OF
the senate. He is chairman OF the
Committee on Commerce, in line
for the Craftsmanship of the Com
mittee on Appropriations, and a
ranking member of the Committee
of Irrigation and Reclamation. In
his service on the last-named COM
mittee Senator Jones has secured
the expenditure of S20,000.000 on
reclamation projects in Washing
ton. and through work he has al
ready done between s7,000,000 and
S9.000.000 is promised for early ex
penditure.
The details of all that Senator
Jones has accomplished for his
own state and the Pacific North

to the distinguished service he has
given in national and international
affairs. Through his own diligenl
efforts. and by long experience, he
has attained to position of emf
hence and influence that is sur
passed by no other member of the
senate. In the last session alone
he saved the people OF his state
Sl2,000.000 in income taxes by Sc
curing an amendment to the reve
nue. bill, and also secured for the
state appropriations for a number
of important purposes ,aggregatine
more than 100000. His long rec
ord Of efficiency and usefulness in
Congress, as well as his persona
record for integrity and high mora
purpose, have never been ques
toned.
