About Corn.

entitled to any premium there might
be in the price of corn, we will pay
33c per bushel for either ear or she'll
ed corn. This price is six or seven
cents more than we could possibly get
out of it if we had to ship to the mar
kets. We are Offering this price as a
medium between our friends on the
east who have corn to sell and natur.
ally and justly want all they can get
for it, and our friends on the west,
who have n0corn, want of course to
buy it as cheaply as possible. AL
things considered we believe this is q
fair price and we hope to see liberal
amount change hands.

How To Prevent Croun.

1t will be good news to. the mothers
of small children to learn that Group
can be prevented. The first sign of
Group is hoarseness. A day or two
before the attack the child becomes
hoarse. This is soon followed by a
peculiar rough cough. Give Cham
berlain's Congh Remedy freely as
soon as the child becomes hoarse, or
even after the rough cough appears,
and it will dispel all symptoms of
Group. In this way all danger and
anxiety may be avoided. This rem
edy is used by many thousands of
mothers and has never been known to
fail. 1t is, in fact, the only remedy
that can always be depended upon
and that is pleasant and safe to take.

Are they fed according to
