disease, and produce greater
yield and a higher quality of both
grain and silage than most cpen-
pcllinated varieties. During the past
two or three years, however, the
demand for hybrid seed stocks has
exceeded the supply with resulting
high prices being paid for seed
corn. This enthusiasm on the part
of growers has prompted the pro-
duction OF all kinds of so-called n.y.
birds, suitable apparently to the
whims of every corn grower; and,
unfortunately, there are many of
these hybrids finding their way in
to the hands of farmers that are
entirely unsuited to this section of
the country. Many of these are COM

and while they might do well in
southern Minnesota, are not adapt

PLAN TO ORGANIZE
CITY BASEBALL TEAM
Initial Practice viii
Be Held Sunday Afternoon
At Fair Grounds

Basebalps initial practice for a
team Of players, older than the
Junior Legion ranks allow, has been
called for Sunday afternoon at the
Fair Grounds by Vern Soltau, who
manages the Junior Legion edition.
There's considerable talent here"
he said, IF we can get it out" He
indicated that if proper turnout is
given there is a chance for a pretty
good ball club here.
The club will be affiliated with
no league setup this year, he point
ed out. Attempts to foster league
under a senior Legion setup fell
through a year ago in the very act
of organization. At that time many
of the surrounding communities
were busily supporting town teams,
had no time for a program of
younger players.
Reports, however, of some league
breakups to the south may make
more teams available. With those
clubs playing independent ball, it
won't be hard to get attractive
games, he pointed out. For the past
year or two, with every available
club sewed up in a league organ
ization, attractive games were diff
ficult to get.

United States Produces
Largest Supply of Corn

Early Colonists raised crops OF
Indian corn from the first, and many
times corn saved them from starva-
ton, for they seemed to fail in their
small wheat fields. 1t was corn that
kept them supplied with bread, OBJ
serves a writer in the Rural New
Yorker. o.
In all the years since then, corn
has been the great American cereal
crop. Corn is King" in most Of our
north central states.
More than half the corn in the
world is grown in the United States.
The second country in corn produc-
ton is Argentina, the third is Soviet
Russia and the fourth is Brazil.
Leading all our states, Iowa, with
her 1000, 900 acres planted to corn
can produce an annual average OF
400, 900, 900 bushels. More than halt
Of Wisconsin's 2,400, 900 acres of corn
are cut into the silos.
The pioneers Of America made
constant use of corn for their daily
needs, but the program was pretty
much the same, day after day. They
had coarsely ground meal hulled
corn and parched corn. Then in
midsummer there were the roasting
ears. They had the corn-meal mush
and, on special occasions, the In
dian pudding.
Their grinding mills Of those pio-
neer days were only the simple out
fits that Indian women had used
for centuries before. Rude little
hand mills, as they were, only
enough ground or cracked corn was
furnished to supply the household
from day to day. After few years
the Colonists rugged up larger mill
stones and, later, harnessed the wa
ter power for their operation.

F. r. SETS UP 3
NEW AGENCIES
Security, Loan, Works
Groups Created Under
Recognizing Bill

Washington, April 25.-President
Roosevelt submitted to congress to-
day a sweeping government reor-
ganization plan calling for creation
of three new federal agencies by
merging welfare, works and lend
ing functions.
A fourth point of the plan, first
to be projected under the recently
enacted government reorganization
act, calls for transfer of the bud
get bureau from the treasury to the
executive office.
A new Federal Security agency
would be created, as well as Fed
eral Works agency on a Federal
Loan agency.
The plan becomes effective at the
end of 90 days unless both houses
of congress vote against it.
Under the security agency would
be grouped the social security
board, now an Independent estab-
lishment; the u. S. department Of
labor; the office of education, now
in the department of the interior;
the public health service, now in
the treasury department; the Ma
tional Youth Administration, now
under the Works Progress Admin
istration, and the Civilian Conser-
walton Corps, now independent.
In the new federal works agency
would be grouped the WPA except
for the Youth Administrations; the
Public Works Administration and
U. S. Housing Authority, now I'M
der interior; the bureau of public
roads, now under agriculture; the
Public Buildings branch of the

He has enclosed a group of
material showing statistics and
formation of barge lows which will
be on display at the library this

He holds several patents on
barge construction that were a re-
evolutionary introduction into river
transportation, which included en-

steps of the company for which he

rlOws from East to West

A feature Of the Columbia river
that looms large in history but has
been overlooked in later years is
that it is the only great waterway
Of the nation that flows from east
to west. 1t courses southwark
through the state Of Washington,
then swings sharply to the left and
flows westward for more than 800
miles to the ocean. In 1903, when
Thomas Jefferson sent Lewis and
Clark to claim the great river for
the United States, he knew of it
mainly as the stream that flowed
east and west. All the other i'm
portant American rivers-the Mis-.
sissippi, the Hudson, the Colorado,
the Tennessee - flow principally
north and south.

results, says r. o. Bridgford, agron-

canvass the city and list rooms for
visiting delegates and their wives
Mr.. Hammond, of the United
States Chamber of Commerce, OF
Minneapolis, spoke on the value of
community or commercial clubs,
insofar as they operate under the
old town meeting plan. He said
they are the bulwark of democracy,
and the sustaining factor in our
system of free enterprise.
A system of fixed economics, fix
ed production, controlled wages,
and controlled everyday habits was
in existence before the formation
of our government. Founding of
our democracy and the town meet
ing idea broke the problem of tot
alitarism, he said. There is a
tendency today to return to that
idea, but through common discus
sion in club groups of larger cities
this has been averted to some ex-
tent.
Businessmen, he said, got out of
touch with the people and their
SAAPAoy anu ioSl lIlC lCdoCI III
their cities. Once they took lead
ership in legislation, in city mat
tiers, ETC., but gradually stepped
back in favor of professional poll
ticians. During the past several
years businessmen have been awak-
ened to the realization of this sit
uation. Unjust attacks against the
economic system have been made,
with near dire results and the bus
inessmen realize the necessity for
a defense program.
The United States Chamber of
Commerce has actively engaged in
defending the system in this great
country, which has brought about
the best standard of living in the
world, and which was the envy of
every country in the world.
Through program of advertising,
businessmen are now ready to point
out the reason for retarding bust
ness, and to use every effort to
change the situation so they can
put more men to work in private
enterprise, instead of swelling the
relief rolls.
At the close of his talk Mr.. Ham
mond presented a picture showing
wasteful expenditures of govern
ment and excessive taxation, and
the way to combat the same among
the people of the nation. This pic
ture showed the progress of the
campaign for better business being
conducted by the Chamber of Com
merce, as one vital part of the pro-
gram extended to affiliated clubs.
Following the meeting the group
enjoyed a Dutch lunch.
