HiirdNlilp on EmployesA C Moses who had brought up the

matter of printing return envelopes bytho government at a former meetingsaid that lie had intended to follow upthe matter at hue meeting but that moreinformation upon the subject had con-vinced him that a prosecution of hisformer course would work hardshipupon some of the government employeeand in their interest he was glad to rotreat from his former position Hemoved that a committee bo appointedto take up the matter of protest on be-half of tho Business interests againstthe sale of army and navystores to private persons The motionwu poised and tho appointment of thocommittee left to the chair

cheek and his sprightly manner broughtthe remark from both of us that we hadnever seen the general look so well

BOY CORN GROWERS SEE TAFT

Thirteen Prizewinning YoungstersAre Visitors in City

Work in Competition DemonstratesFasHlbIIItIe of South In

3rnixe Industry

By far the happiest boys In Washingtontoday are thirteen youngsters not oneof them more than sixteen years oldfrom sunny South who are visitingthe Capital a the special guests of Sec-retary Wilson of the Department of Ag-riculture

These buys are members of the cornctaba under the Farmers CooperativeDemonstration Work f the Departmentof Agriculture and renresent the prize-winners amOng 4MCQ uptodate Southernfarmer boys who are demonstrating tothe country today what the South cando in growing corn

They are in charge of Prof 0 B Martte assistant to the chief of the Bureauof Farmers Cooperation and Demon-stration who is responsible as theirguardian for the sightseeing trips aboutthe city

President Taft spared enough of hisrateable time yesterday to chat for atar moments with the boys at the White

and sent them away withMarts glad because of praise they welldeserved

they plan to call upon SecrotarT Wilson and spend the remainder oftbcir time looking over the city ProfMartin took a U the boys to Chases lastnight and they insisted on walking downbrilliantly lighted Pennsylvania avenueto the St James Hotel where they arestopping

The boys expressed themselves as im-mensely pleased with their visit but weremost enthusiastic in discussing the re-sults of their experiments That a

of Southern farmers in cornas a national product is surely to be aresult they firmly believe

About a yzv ago all the members ofthe corn doba to work one acreof eons in accordance with the instruc-tions of tho department Merchantsbankers and other public spirited citi-sens throughout the country offered 10

000 in prises and government agents andpublic schoolteachers cooperated in theorganisation and instruction of clubs innearly COO counties in the Southern States

According to the regulations makingawards of prises the following points wereconsidered Yield cost per bushel bestten ears and written history of thecrop Not all of the boys who won prizesmade the largest yields in their StatesThe economical side was considered thefarming profits and a record had tobe kept at the county corn show or fair

In one Mississippi county a boy raised-as high as 1ft bushels to an acreand like results in the other SouthernStates showed the Dixie farmer what hecan do with his land if it is worked

the proper conditionsThe following are the names and ad-
