play the ability of our players en
abled Murdock to carry away the
honors of both games. The girls'
score was 40 to 0 and that of the
boys, 44 to 2. However, it is not
always size that counts. The little
mascot of the boys' team made the
only score for the boys. Mr. Stover
and Miss Pollard, both of Xehawka,
were referees. After the game our
teams were taken for a short ride
in the "kid" wagons, as they called
them. Our boys and girls were very
much in favor of the consolidation
plan, in which Xehawka has been
very successful, and wondered why
Murdock couldn't have consolidation
too.

there were plenty of cars for the
shipment of grain, which was being
used for wheat shipments.
At every place where there were
trackage one could see large num-
brs of coal cars loaded, which seem-
ed to say that that country was pro-
vided for the winter in that respect.
There was much snow, and the
weather was very cold.

WILL SALT SAVE
THE CORN CROP?
IT IS SAID BY THOSE WHO HAVE
TRIED THAT IT SURELY
WILL.
From Tuesday's Dally.
James E. Bennetf & Co., commis
sion merchants of Chicago, learned
that salt was being used to preserve
soft corn in Whiteside Co., 111., and
instructed one of their traveling men
to investigate. He reports as fol
lows:
"Accompanied by an experienced
grain dealer I investigated thorough
ly the use of salt for preservation of
soft corn in the vicinity of Prophets
town, (Whiteside Co.) Illinois. We
found numerous places where corn
was bei4ng salted or had been salted,
We interviewed many experienced
farmers on the subject and acquir-
ed the following interesting infor
mation. Mr. T. J. Marshall, a
large successful farmer residing
about one and a half miles south of
Prophetstown, gives us the follow
ing data: In 1881, the year in
which so many farmers experiment
ed with large yellow seed corn from
Kansas, it was found that this corn
did not mature. Mr. Marshall in
forms us that while cribbing corn
that year, an elderly German, John
Liphart, advised him to salt his soft
corn. LiDhart stated that this meth-
od of preservation had been adopted
in Germany and Sweden, the climate
not being adapted to maturing corn.
Marshall adopted the German's sug-
I gestion, operating under his direc-
J tions to use from 2 to 2 bbls. of
I salt for each 1000 bus. of corn, that
jS equivalent to about 10 quarts of
J salt to each ordinary wagon load of
ear corn, salt being sprinkled over
the corn as it was being placed in
the crib. Mr. Marshall states the ex
periment was a pronounced success
Corn which he cribbed early without
salt that year wast lost. The crib
that was salted came out as dry as
a bone, just as bright as it went in
and absolutely free from mold and
rot though light in weight' due to the
moisture drawn from the corn by
the action of the salt. The process
,.pfl frnT Hrnfi Tn tim nilT wa.
ag3in extensively used with tne son
corn crops two years ago (1915).
Mr. Marshall induced his neighbors
to salt their soft corn and informs
us the result was highly satisfac
tory, resulting in . many converts
This year these same farmers and
many recruits to the method are ap
plying salt. Practically the entire
stock of the common barrel salt in
this vicinity was exhausted. Mr. E
J. Mathis, of The Mathis Bros. Co
grain dealers at Prophetstown and
other points, said his firm has sold
several carloads of salt for this corn
crop. Local farmers seem to have
accepted the salting process and
adopted it into their regular method
of farming, claiming it had been
thoroughly tested on previous occa
sions and found effective and highly
satisfactory. In addition to inter
viewing farmers who were using the
method, we were particularly inter
ested in our visit with Mr. Albert
Bessire, a big farmer. He showed
us one crib of 1000 bushels of new
corn which had been treated with
salt. Mr. Bessire removed one of
the crib slats and we took out suf
ficient corn to penetrate an arm's
length. We found the corn very coo
in fact cooler than the outside tem
perature, perfectly sweet but of
course wet. This corn had been in
crib several days. It is further stat
ed that corn cribbed with salt pass
es through the winter in its soft or
green state, drying only with the
coming of spring winds and rising
temperatures. It is claimed this
soft corn absolutely doen not heat
We have looked Into the matter care
fully and are convinced the process
has sufficient merit to justify a thor
ough investigation, not only by the
individual but by the Agrictultura
Departments. Salt retails in Proph
etstown about $2.40 per bbl. of 280
pounds. It is stated that the corn
comes out in the spring practically
free from any taste of salt."
