EXCELLENT CHANCE,
Opportunities For Wide Advertise
ment Were Never Better Than
is Given in Worlds Fair
Corn Contest in
October.

II. J. Waters, of Columbia, dean Of
the State Agricultural College, was in
Mexico Wednesday in the interest of
the Audrain county and Missouri
State exhibits Of agriculture at the
Worlds Fair.
MI. Waters is highly interested in
his work and is enthusiastic over Mis-
%souri's prospective exhibit.
"Audrain county" said Mr.. Waters,
has the most liberal cash premiums
for the county corn contest in the
State, as the State prizes have been
more thap doubled by the liberality Of
the citizens. This contest, as you
know, will be held in conjunction with
the Street Carnival Oct. 1917.
"No better advertisement could be
conceived than for Audrain county to
win In the State Show, to be held in
st. Louis, probably in the Missouri
building, in January. This contest Is
open to the State and entry in the
county show does not preclude entry
in the State contest, In which $1,000
In cash premiums will be given.
There is also the possibility Of an
Audrain county corn grower winning
the worlds premium at the Fair next
summer. This, in itself, would be
worth a fortune to the winner as a
seed corn advertisement and Of un-
estimable value to the county"
Mr.. Waters stated that Hon. G. f.
Clark, of this city, is interesting him
self in securing a large collection Of
pictures of representative herds of
stock, farms, horses, etc, in Audrain
county and that his son, Chas. Clark,
was gathering a collection of grasses
and clover for the Audrain exhibit.
He also stated that Audrain county
is considered the timothy seed center
Of Missouri and that W. S. Hatha-
way, of this city, and Coontz s. Wat
ers, OF Vandalia, were making excel
lent collections In mat class.
"Dean Brothers, Of near this city,
and George Kennedy, Of Vandalia,"
said Mr.. Waters, "are picking out
some excellent samples Of the 1902 crop
Of Audrain corn. This will be used in
making a corn-covered agricultural
exhibit at the Worlds Fair and for
decorating the Missouri building.
81 am pleased to see the interest
displayed in Mexico and Audrain coun-
ty and expect to see liberal efforts
by the citizens of the county to
capture agood part of the State Show
prizes in January. The premiums
amount to 81, 900 in cash and the win
ners will get a dollar an a for their
corn.

WOOD SPRINGS ITEMS.
Correspondence of the Ledger.
COTTONWOOD SPRINGS, Sept. e.
Grant Wright, formerly of Mexico, now
of Colfax, Washington, is trying to
toll Nose Carter and Clip Bennett out
to that wild and woody state, but we
don't think Grant can cut Ter.
Elmo Jewell Gass is the owner Of
perhaps the best 3-year-old Rex Nc
Donald mare in the county. Her name
is Queen Belle and she's a bird. Peck
Bros. are also the proud possessors OF a
mighty good gelding, recently pur-
chased of Col. Bob Cauthorn.
Col. Hord Davis lost a little money
on his last bunch Of cattle, but that's
a small matter and cuts no ice. He is
still the cattle king Of Audrain, but
we are afraid Bob Brown will turn
Hord's face to the wall. Bob owns
some bumpers.
Galloway county can down Audrain
on one thing, only one thing-mules.
Fulton at one time endeavored to
compete with Mexico, but that town
lost out, long ago. Why, listen, it
will only be a few years until Fulton
will be a nice, clean little suburban
village, connected by an electric line
with Greater South Mexico. Fulton
is a good town but it can't touch Mex
leo side, edge or bottom-as 1t were
but well let 'er go at that.
Col. Clip Mildred is home from Den
yer, where he visited his friend, Bob
Calhoun, who has a good position in
that town. In the event Manager
Gregg takes q lucrative position with
a ST. Louis trust company next year,
there will be a heavy pressure brought
to bear to have Col. Mildred manage
this popular resort. Clip would make
a warn manager, as Gregg has.

ty fine matches. Russell bought his

Rev. Fl. P. Kelly, Of Crosby, will

P. 7. Bruce sold a dandy mule colt
the other day to Tom Berrey for s100.
He also sold another to Mack Boyle
for S65.
William Coleman Moore died at his
home, three miles north Of here, at IL
O'Clock a. m. Sept. 10 Of typhoid fever.
The dread disease held him its victim
about a month. At n time In his
sickness he seemed to be the victor,
but a relapse soon told the above tale.
Mr.. Moore was born In Washington
county, Kentucky, May 8, 1852. At
the age of 16 he was converted and
Joined the Baptist church. In 1879 he
moved with his fathers family to Mon
roe county. At the age Of 20 he was
married to Miss Belle Mallory, Of near
his home. -Four children, two girls
and two boys, were born to this union,
all of whom survive the father. On
Sunday the remains we're taken to
Long Branch Church where a short
song service was held and scripture
reading by ]. G. Crawford. There was
no funeral discourse, as the preacher
they desired could not be obtained.
Interment was made at Long Branch
Church. We don't believe so much in
heaping a mans virtues upon him
after he is dead, yet it seems but just
to those living to say that he was GER
tainly a good neighbor, a kind and low
ing father and an affectionate hus-
band an6 a good Christian man. Peace
to his ashes.
Some of the improvents in our
vicinity: J. A. Timber made an ad-
dltion to his barn and painted same;
j. B. Stephens treated his house and
