Increased Use
Of Corn as Food
And Fuel Urged
Manager of Omaha Motor
Firm Propose- Campaign
To Aid Farmeri Dit
poie of Crop.
tSSMSSSMSWasM
A proposal for a general campaign
by commercial ana agricultural in
terests to encourage the uie of corn
aa food and fuel has been launched
by Ralph W. Jonei, manager of the
Card-Adams Motor company, In let
tera to acorea of Nebraska business
men.
U r. Jonea propoiea organization
of a corn growers' aiiociation simi
lar to the fruit Growers' association
of the I'acific coait. lie point out
that Nebraska business generally Ii
being embarrassed by the inability of
the farmer to gam a fair price tor me
corn.
Solvency at Stake.
"We have on hand at this time
probably the largest amount of corn
that we ever have had," Mr. Jones
states. "No doubt we have a sur
plus, but there are ways in which
t hi surplus can and should be used,
When that is accomplished, corn
prices will return to normal. The
verv solvency of thousands-of farm
rrs. hundreds of hanks and, in fact,
of most every business of every kind
in the middle west is at stake right
now and will remain so until the
farmer is able to market his prod
ucls at a fair price."
Specifically Mr. Jones proposes:
"First and foremost, it is not t
rrime to use corn for fuel. Practl
tally as many British thermal units
of heat can be obtained troni i
worth of ear corn at present prices
and probably more than trom l
worth of coal. It is not economy
for a farmer to haul three tona of
corn to town to exchange for one ton
of coal which has to be hauled out
from town to his farm. He had
better burn the corn.
Campaign Urged
"I believe a campaign should be
launched and an active part taken
in it by every commercial club,
chamber of commerce, business or
ganization and business man of ev
ery kind, bankers, farmers and mer
chants to urge and insist that every
family burn at least one load of com,
or, rather, use one load of corn for
fuel. If enough energy is put behind
this campaign . we can spread this
propaganda through every section of
the country, and I believe this one
proposition alone will enable us to
consume the entire surplus of corn
on hand at present.
"2. Committees of business men
in each locality can put enough
pressure behind the bakeries,
restaurant! and hotels to persuade
them to increase the consumption of
cornmeal and corn flour many fold.
Should Raise Pigs.
"J. In all towns where it is at all
practicable, committees of business
men should be appointed to urge the
residents to put one or two pigs in
.their back yards and feed them corn.
i,"4. If sufficient interest is taken in
is proposition and enough mem.
befs and sufficient funds can be ob
tained to cover the expenses of a
campaign of educational advertising,
we can conduct one which will in
crease very largely the consumption
of corn as food and otherwise.
Chemists can be put to work to find
new uses for corn and corn products
and no doubt, a good deal can be
accomplished- along this line. Win
dow posters, billboard posters, news
paper publicity articles and advertis
ing copy can be furnished from head
quarters. One of the biggest fields
for the activity of this association
to be taken up a little later would
be to extend the foreign market and
increase the use of corn in foreign
countries."' ' ;

he explained..
Hold Joint. Session, ,
Following Mr. Hooper's state
ments, the unions held individual
conferences and then went into a
joint conference to decide what ac
tion, if any, would be taken. Late
this afternoon, ; Congressman-at-Large
William Burke of Pennsyl
vania, general chairman of Baltimore
and Ohio conductors, and Peter Kil
duff, an official of the engineers' or
ganization, went to the board to re
quest deferment of the decision on
yesterday's hearing. It was to this
committee that-the boardi delivered
its ultimatum that the unions must
act by tomorrow or the board would
deal with them "with ungloved
hands," members of the board said.
These members declared that they
told the committee the railroad group
of the board was insistent that "im
mediate and emphatic" action be
taken by it and that action was being
deferred only at the counsel of the
public and. labor groups so that the
unions might have a chance to act
first.
Another committee, of three vice
chiefs of the engineers conferred
several hours with Mr. Hooper dur
ing the afternoon and it was reported
this committee also was informed of
the board's plans.
Stone Smashes Camera.
The board remained in executive
session most of the day, awaiting
word from the unions and discussing
its statements on yesterday's hear
ing which probably will be issued
tomorrow.
The afternoon union meeting was
enlivened when Mr. Stone smashed
the camera of a photographer who
attempted to take his picture. Mr,
Stone chased a photographer several
locks yesterday when an attempt
Cs made to snap him. Mr. Stone

photographer today.

Priest Seen Alone
Just Before Murder
(Contlnurd from Pas Oim.)
ties believe the murderer, after fall
ing at the bishop's residence and ar
ranging for Father Belknap to make
the call on the alleged dying man,
may have hurried to the spot on
poor man s gulch highway and wait
ed for the coming of his victim.
It was pointed out also, however,
that the man who went to the
bishop's home might have been only
confederate of the murderer who
sent the priest on his journey so he
would be met by the murderer at the
lonely spot on the road where the
crime was committed.

Fairbury Roller mill will run by
rlectririty and front the private plant
the city will also be lighted. The
old Hume and water wheel south of
the mill, which has done service for
years has been torn out and a new
plant put in, with two direct drive
generators, capable of making 3H)
horic-power daily. To provide for
this new plant a concrete flume was
built, 25 feet hiith, through which
the water will flow. This plant rep
resents an investment of about
$J0,00O. Two months have alreadv
been consumed in erecting it and it
will he about three weeks yet be
fore the water can be turned in and
the machinery started.
A contract has been made between
W. E. Lea & Sons and the City of
Fairbury whereby current from these
two generators is to be furnished
the city at a cost of V, cents per
kilowatt hour. This will save the
city, it is estimated, at present cost
of fuel, about $5,000 a year. Mayor
Moon promij.es the citizens of Fair
bury a lower rate for current when
this new machinery is in operation.
It also provides for the future growth
of the city by providing current when
most needed.
North Platte-Kearney
Protect Is ExDlamed
Gothenburg, Neb., Oct. 27.
(Special.) The preliminary survey "cX
of the North Platte-Kearney project
is at last started. At the annual
meeting of the Community club here
last Monday, Engineer Smith of the
United State reclamation service.
who has made Gothenburg his head
quarters for the last three weeks,
gave a general report of his obser
vations and activities.
Smith stated that although the
actual survey was only started, his
observations on an inspection tour
of the valley proved to him that the
project was the largest and most
promising of any he had ever han
dled. According to a rough outline,
the ditch will follow the low ridge
north of the Platte valley. Some
talk has been made of extending the
ditch along the Wood River valley
to Shelton and Gibbon, but the plan
is thought to be hardly feasible.
Chairman E. J. Spaulding of the
irrigation committee also announced
that $2,932.50 has been raised
toward Gothenburg's share of the
survey cost.
