DIES MONIES. Ia, oct. 18.- Prices are low and the harvest plentiful, so many Iowa farmers are considering the use of corn for fuel.
 Corn from ten acres will keep an average farm house warm throughout the winter.
 Iowa's corn crop is one of the biggest in history. There is a market-choking surplus of well matured corn.

SEEING THE RESULT

Through the nation wide con- tracts, party headquarters usu- ally knows rather definitely in ad- vance how the election is going.
 Sometimes local leaders become over-enthusiastic but too-rosy pre- dictions generally are detected and discounted by the more experience d national leaders and something nearer the truth becomes the ba- sis of the final judgment.
 And it is amazing how nearly the information gathered by op- posing parties agrees. It is the fashion never to give up publicity until the votes are counted, but the voters, themselves, would be surprised to know how often a party organization closes it's cam paign with predictions of victory when it knows perfectly well that it is licked.

into the picture as a new MINING
champion.
He introduced q bill that ap-
propriated $40, 600 TO investigate
the feasibility OF resuming by.
draulic mining in California wifh
some State aid. The bin passed
both houses Of the Legislature
without a dissenting vote and
was signed by Governor Richard

Hydraulic Mining Commission Of
California. The investigation re-
CURED two years. It was led
by former State KIineralogist
LlOdy Root. aided BY authorita-
tive mining engineers. It's dis
coyeries were an amazing revela-
ton.
It found that in the placer
field Of the Sierra Nevadas, be-
tween susanvfIle on the north
and Mariposa on the south
the area in which the farmers.
through the debris law, have re-
stricted hydraulic operations
there is 7.OOO.0O0.OoO yards OF
gold gravel, Of which ct least 40
per cent is economically recov-
cradle.
It found that in Placer county
there Is 400 miles OF laya-capped
gravel channel that has never
been worked. Lava-capped cham
nels that have been worked have
produced from 100000 toI
$5.OO0,0OO in gold per miiel
It found that Nevada County
has three times this area, that
Plumas. Sierra. Ell Dorado, Anna
dor and Calaveras counties each
have at least zoo miles Of gravel
deposits.
There is in the neighborhood
Of s1,O00.O0O,O00 IN gold that
can be recovered economically
there" observed State Mineral
ogist Root.
This sum would be recovered
by direct hydraulic mining meth
DDS. Millions more would be re-
covered by driSt mining, for
hydraulic mining opens the way
to the drift process by clearing
the way to richer bedrock gravel
deposits that lie buried beneath
the lava caps.

She did not want to shares those

no help for it.
With a resigned sigh she unlocked
the door and stepped into the Rossi-

Mony's solitaire was the joke of

You aren't telling me anything!
You only said over the phone that

ELLEN understood that Molly

though something she feared had
been passed. Ali at once she was
able to laugh at herself.
What a mad fool she had be-
come? All Of her values seemed
changed So much depended to-
night upon so little.
She saw that Larry was watching
her face as he waited for her to
answer. She gestured toward a sign
on the wall.
They had to dance through the
crowd and to the outskirts so that
he could read. His own gray eyes
lighted when he read that hostesses

versation to yes" and no"
DO you like me a lot?" he in
quired promptly.
Ellen feared that he would dis
Germ the swift hammering of her
heart. She felt the color creeping
into her face.
Go on, tell me-" he urged. yes
or no?"
So he thought he would tease

Yes" Ellen responded, but very
obviously indeed.

and that life had become for her
thrilling and rose-hued miracle.
Certainly 1 mean it," she re-
piled.
There was no reason why she
should explain to this young
stranger how it happened that she
was able to wear Paris gown. It
was impossible for her to do SO.

he should know nothing of her re-
sponsibilities, of the care and fret
ting trouble which had Swallowed
her youth.
She wanted only to laugh and to
forget everything else. To him
she must stand for gayety, for care
less and irresponsible fun.
He was not Steven Barclay. How
did she know how quickly she
might, by any hasty or misjudged
attempt to precipitate him into her
life, turn that eager look into the
expression Of boredom that she had
seen before.
She did not amplify her bare
statement.
He was checked.
