WASHINGTON, Nov. 10—(U.R)—
Corn huskers wno narvest the
nation’s vast com crop and prided
themselves on their skill are being
supplanted by machines.
The agriculture department es-
timated that a considerable part
of this year’s 1500,000-bushel
com crop would be harvested by
the 70,000 mechanical corn pick-
ers on farms. In 1920 there were
only 10,000 such pickers.
Last year about 43 percent of
the com acreage in Illinois was
harvested by mechanical pickers
and about 35 percent in Iowa and
Minnesota. This year the percent-
age in these principal producing
stales will be largef.
The department's estimate for
other corn states showed mechan-
ical pickers harvested 22 percent
of the crop in Indiana. 18 percent
in South Dakota, 12 percent in
Iowa, and about 5 percent in
Michigan. North Dakota and Wis-
consin
Adoption of the power take-otf
the wagon hitch and the mounted
picker are improvements which
led farmers to purchase 28.000
mechanical pickers during tlv
past two years, the department
said.
Used mainly on the most pro-
ductive com acreages, the pickers
last year covered about 13 per-
cent oj corn acreage in the na-
tion, but gathered about 20 per-
cent of the crop, the department
said.
The department estimated that
the one-row picker results in a
saving of onc-third in labor costs
and that the two-row picker saves
half on labor costs. tA one-row
picker will harvest 80 to 100 acres
of corn.

One sunny fall day. Brooks walk- ”

scaled a fence at the south end of
the prison yard. From there he
wandered down the street until he
came to an automobile parked in
front of a furniture plant.
Brooks climbed in the car and
drove away. His next stop was a I
service station. He had the tank |
filled—and drove off before the |
tank rover was replaced or the I
gasoline paid for.
Officers spied him speeding up a j
main street, gasoline dripping from i
the coverless tank. The officers j
gave chase, but Brooks outdistanced
them.
His next appearance was at a
soft drink stand, where he piloted
the stolen machine through a

and injuring them slightly and
making others scurry to safety.
