Twenty-Five Tear-Old Corn.
CRE8T0N, Ia, Jun 1. (Special.)
Common field corn. If properly kept will re
tain It fertility and be suitable for seed
tor twenty-five years at least. This was
demonstrated by William Schronover, a
farmer living north of Vllllsca, who this
spring planted some corn which had been
gathered for twenty-five years and kept In
a dry place. He planted the seed as an
experiment and waa somewhat surprised
when it germinated and brought forth as
good a stand aa seed gathered last year.
Only a few grains of the old corn refused
to grow, and he is now wondering how
much longer It would have retained It
virility.
Comments of the Iowa Press.
Sioux City Journal: J. E. Blythe does
not want to go to congress as the repre
sentative of the Fourth district unless the
people of Cerro Oordo county want him
to go. He has withdrawn from the race.
The presumption Is that Mr. Haugen will
be renominated at the Charles City conven
tion June 19 without serious opposition.
Cedar Rapids Republican: The United
States courts In Des Moines are trying a
man named Letson Balllet, who began on
nothing and succeeded In selling IL'SO.nut
worth of White Bwan mining stocks.' He
lived like a prince. He started a paper to
advertise his stuff and the government Is
after him for using the mall to perpetrate
a fraud. Of one edition of an Idaho paper
he circulated 200.0UO copies. The Great
Eastern Newspaper league, managed by a
man named King, who stopped with hi"
carload of fakirs in Cedar Rapids over
Sunday a couple of years ago and tried to
work the Commercial club, received some
thing like $37,600 from Balllet. The best
thing that can be said for him is that he
succeeded in finding a quarter of a million
dollars worth of suckers. Great man.
Great scheme.
Audubon Republican: Cass county repub
licans used their primary system last Sat
urday for the first time. Its friends are
much pleased over the day's result. They
say the best and fullest party expression
possible was made.
Ida Grove Era: The minister of Bloux
City are after the Sabbath desecrater. They
are calling down the base ball game, the
theater etc., but It Is not recorded that
they notice the fellows who sit around on
the street all day Sunday and make re
marks about the women who pass. On that
last great day there may even be some
Sunday base ball players among the chosen,
while these curbstone comedians may get
beautifully left. Just where benefit leaves
off and harm begins in this matter of Bun
day observance Is a question of never-ending
dlnpute. .
Audubon Republican: One of the best
posted men In th's section of the state, a
man of mature years, a capitalist who has
made his money by the exercise of his
own good Judgment and fortunate Invest
ments, recently stated to ua his opinion
that Iowa land at present prices Is an ex
cellent investment. The population of this
country Is gradually but steadily Increas
ing. America has passed the point when
it is only an agricultural country and la
becoming a great manufacturing nation.
Our manufactured goods have entered the
markets of the far away countries of all
the world and are successfully competing
with the manufactures of other countries.
This clasa of trade ha gone forward the
laat few years by leaps and bounds. The
balance of trade is recently tremendously
In our favor. All this calls for bigger
American cities, bigger American markets
for our farm products, and they lr turn
gush up the price of good farm land. The
panlsh war seemed to break over the
old channels of trade to some extent and
to bring the American nation Into world
notice, pushing forward Its business. Then
the area of good corn land I limited. All
these things make our friend think good
lowaMand haa not yet nearly reached the
permanent figure.
Waterloo Courier: Dr. George A. New
man of Cedar Fall has been named aa
assistant adjutant general and quarter
master general on the atari of Commander
Llndt of the Iowa Grand Amy of the
Republic. Thla Is the third term for Dr.
Newman In thla office. He was appointed
first by Commander M. B. Davis, waa re
tired by Commander Metxger and now la
kept by the newly elected head of the or
der. Dr. Newman haa also served aa sec
retary of the state aenate the laat two
sessions of that body and In all of his of
ficial capacities he has executed hla duties
with credit to himself and to the state aa
well.
Iowa Stat If ewa Notes. -
Northwestern Iowa has had twenty
inches of rain for May. It would rather
have taken half of It in installments In
July and August
Last year there were no cherries. This
year there is going to be an abundance.
Last year there were not enough and thla
year there are too many for those who
have to sell. And so ideal condition for
all never come.
The Des Moines Register, which Is
"keeping an j eye" on the corn, reports
that In aome early planted fields It Is a
foot high. The Register also testifies that
the wheat la knee high and the oata cover
the ground well.
Report to the office of the state dairy
commissioner indicate that dairying In
Iowa la not as popular this year aa in
other years. In addition to the fact that
the livestock came through the winter in
rather poor condition the farmers hava dis
covered that there la more money to be
made, with the present high prices, In
beef cattle and pork than In creamery
work. The atate dairy commissioner, Mr.
Wright, Is convinced that this year's re
ports will not show the customary gain
over other yeara.
Henry Hfldemann, the 14-year-old son
of a profjnent farmer living north of
Boies, had one leg torn oft and was other
wise terribly injured in a runaway. The
lad . waa driving a pulveriser and ths
horses became frightened and started to
run. Four strong horse were attached
to It and he waa unable to control them.
He was thrown from his seat, the sharp

More than 18.89 worth of fine, blooded
stock waa shipped lnt Iowa during ths

a dosen stock salea In ths middle west,
extending from Omaha to Indiana. A
large number of Iowa buyera attend all
of the stock aale and they never fall to
bring home fine stork. It is to be re
gretted that more of the aalea are not held
in thla atate and the stock kept her after

AMERICANS LIKE HERBERT
Washington Sentiment la Favorable
Toward Him as gnreessor to Late
Lord raaacefote.
WASHINGTON, June 1. The question of
th succession to the piece in th British
embassy here vacated by the death of Lord
Pauncefote 1 attracting attention In offi
cial circles to an unprecedented degree.
It Is the custom of governments before
such appointments to consult the govern
ment to which the ambassador Is to be ac
credited before making a selection, In or
der to insure a favorable reception of the
appointee. In the present car there has
not been the slightest hint or suggestion to
Indicate the purpose of the British govern
ment. This fact Is explained by the state
ment that the. Foreign office official bad
such favorable new of the condition oNthe
late ambassador up to the very moment of
his death that they had not felt it neces
sary to even contemplate tho selection ot a
successor.
In this state of affair the official here
are obliged to look entirely to the new dis
patches from London for Indication of th
personality of the new ambassador.
Th names of the persons mentioned In
the Associated Press dispatches of last
night are all favorably received by the offi
cial her who are acquainted with them
either personally or through their records
In the British diplomatic, service and It
may be stated on the highest authority that
the president will cheerfully receive any
one of them a persona grata.
The weight of opinion here sustain the
Judgment expressed In the London dis
patches that Michael Herbert, now secre
tary and minister at Paris, will receive the
appointment as Lord Pauncefote' succes
sor, although the field la still regarded a
open.
The family of the deceaaed ambassador
already is arranging to return to England,
although It may be a month or six weeks
before Lady Pauncefote and her daughter
all.

Engineer, Firemen and Pumpmen at
Scranton Refnse to dolt
Work.
WILKESBARRE. Pa. Jun 1. President
Mitchell of the United Mine Workers re
turned to this city today fter a week'
absence In the west. Mr. Mitchell ald
his trip to the west hsd nothing to do with
bringing about a settlement of the strike
In the anthracite region.
The engineers, firemen and pumpmen from
Ashley and vicinity held a meeting In this
city today and a resolution endorsing the
strike waa adopted by a two-third vote.
At a meeting of the engineers, firemen
and pumpmen employed at the collieries In
Plymouth this afternoon the strike order
was endorsed by a vote of ninety-two to
nothing.
All the hotels In the city are filling up
with strange men. Many of them are said
to be machinist having knowledge of all
kinds of machinery. The operator claim
they are prepared in case all the engineers.
firemen and pumpmen should go out to fill
their place with competent men.
A committee representing the 400 engi
neers, firemen and pumpmen of the Lack
awanna region, who are opposed to a strike,
came to Wilkesbarre tonight to endeavor to
have the strike order rescinded. The oom
rolttee met President Mitchell and District
Presidents Nichols, Fahey and Duffy. After
a lengthy conference, in which the commit
tee presented its reason for asking to
have the order rescinded, the United Mine
Workers' leader decided unanimously that
the order must stand. The Scranton dele
gation then returned home with the avowed
Intention of Ignoring the strike order.
