sent out by the State to demonstrate
the possibility of having better roads
at less expense than the kind we now
have. Mr.. King shows a photograph
of the road through his farm that is as
smooth and well graded as a city
speedway. This excellent road is the
result of six years experiment by Mr..

by the picture but by the fact that
that the State thinks it of enough i'm
portance to send him out over the

ments in our city since he was last

speedway at very slight cost by the

WOMEN eATHRR R
At Laddonia a Thirty Bushel
Load of Corn Gathered By Mem
bers Of Woman's Aid Society
Sold at Sixty Cents.

Sixty cents was paid for a 3S-bushel
load Of average yellow corn at Lad
donia Tuesday afternoon.
OF curse it was not the merit of
the corn which brought this price
when wagon after wagon load had been
sold to the two elevator companies in
that city the same day for % cents a
bushel.
What put on the price was the fact
that 1t had been gathered by a dozen
handsome Audrain women and girls.
The way the matter came up was
that John Hobson, who has 240 acres
of fine corn n and one-half miles
east of Laddonia, offered the Ladies'
Aid Society Of the NJ. e. Church,
South, a load of corn IL they would
gather it. This proposition was taken
up and the IL who performed the task
donned their old frocks, borrowed hats
from brothers or husbands and went
to work. They filled the wagon bed
full Of well shucked ears of corn and
took il to town, where it was sold at
auction TO Wildes & Pearson for &C
cents a bushel. When weighed ii
was found that there were 3S bushels.
The ladies who did the work wilde.
vote the proceeds thus earned, S22, 80,
to church work.
Those who took part in the work
were Mesdames j.. r. Hodge, Il. II.
Slavens, Bishop, ]. H. Hobson, A. S.
Faulkner and Barnes, Misses Lille
Hodge, Pearl and Lizzie Ferguson,
Irene Painter, Dollie Slavens and
Ella Brakler.
The r was gathered 10 a space Of
two hours and one of the ladies told q
LEDGER reporter that the first row
was finished up in half an hour, but
that the second took an hour and a
half. She said she would not make an
estimate as to the time it would have
taken to have gathered a third row,
