The editor of Wallace's Farmer com- rutes that Iowa loses $5.000.000 a year n ungathered cornstalk>. In making this estimate he puts the value of the cornstalks at the low rate of one dollar an acre. On the same basis of valna- tion how much do Minnesota nit the Dakotas lose? Would not the sum at least reach the miloon mark? such loss is appalling. In the corn belt it reaches a procigiotis sum. It must be stopped. No nation, however prosperous, can af- ford to waste the gifts of a kind Provi- dence. The man who only cuts half his hay would suon be dealt with by the authorities. But where is the dif- ferener in such a course and in leaving cornstalks ungathered? The excuse mnde for not cutting cornstalks is the scarcity anil dearness of labor. The remedy is not nn impossible one, Grow less corn and turn up some other kind of food that can be harvested nt some other season. The ability to grow so much corn is fraught with promise to the live stock interests of the country. It means that two or three times as moch live stock will some day be grown RE we have at the present time.
