Raymond Mallie Won
First in Linn County
In DeKalb Contest
l~.aymond Mallie's ylehl of 114
bushels per acre won first in Linn
county in the DeKalb corn grow-
ing contest. DeKalb 616 seed was
used, which was planted on May
14th and 16th. The field was north
of the house and had been in pas-
ture for two previous years. He
selected a five acre patch out of
the 40 acre field after being urged
several times to enter the coutest.
W ill S COLD WEATHERTIES
p t M2:t
Mt. Vernon Forum UP PAVING WORK
up by the cold weather this week
and no progress whatsoever has
been made.
The rain of Saturday turned the
dirt streets on the north side into
a sea of mud and it was necessary
to close them to protect the sub-
grad e.
Eighth Avenue, which has rock
on it, has been kept closed by fhe
contractor because he was afraid
that on the first thaw mud would
be carried onto it from the dirt
streets and the rock ruined for as-
)halt surfacing.
The streets on the south side with
"ock have been open and traffic
has moved without hindrance there.
The rock is frozen hard and makes
a surface as good as pavement.
Thru the carelessness of work-
men the engine which operates the
rock crusher at the Whitman Quar-
ry. was allowed to freeze Monday
night which cracked the block.
laATIII:;lt I{()BI,]ItT A. ~VAI~SH [ This power unit is ~id to be worth
$3,000.
Cold weather interrupted picking
corn in the field but he estimates
that the 40 acres will average at
least 96 :bushels to the acre.
Pheasants Ruun Into
Blizzard And Cold Weather
Many from the vicinity of Mount
Vernon have been pheasant hunt-
ing this week. Among those go-
ing a distance for the sport were:
Kenneth Edaburn, Harold Current,
Lynn Goodlove, Laurance Johnston
and Lauranee West who went to
the home of Mr. and Mrs. Lee Cur-
rent in Clay county. They left
Mount Vernon about 11 p.m. Mon-
day night, and found that the se-
vere snow storm was blocking the
roads near Hampton, and had to
shovel out several times. They got
their limit of pheasants. Some of
them they did not have to shoot.
The birds were covered with ice
and snow and were easily picked
up. Many herds of cattle and hogs
nearly frozen to death, were seen
in the northern part of the state
near Spencer, they said.
Darwin Cook, Don Current, Bob
Gill spent Tuesday in the vicinity
of Lost Nation. Mr. and Mrs.
Julian Johnston left Monday for
Webster City, where Judy expected
to get his limit of pheasants. Many
hunters stayed closer to home and
crossed the Linn county line to
Jones county, to get their limit.
Because of the severe weather
which has taken a toll of pheas-
ants, hunters are asked not to hunt
in the territory west of Forest City
and north of High No. 18.
