AN IDEAL WEEK.
Good Weather For Ripenins Crops
Fell to Iowa.

Fell to Iowa.
From Tuesdays Daily.
Des Moines, Sept. 29.-The past
week has been an ideal week for rip
ening the belated crops, and advance
ment of usual fall work. The temper
allure was about normal, with drying
winds, and more than the usual
amount of sunshine. The week closed
with light rains, followed by moder-
ate frost on the morning of Sept. 81,
which caused no material damage to
any field crops. Reports indicate that
corn binders are at work in all dis
tricts, and considerable acreage will
be put into shock to save the valuable
fodder. Except in limited areas which
suffered most heavily from storms and
floods, reports from the fields are more
cheerful in tone, giving assurance of
better returns from the harvest than
was deemed possible during the first
half of the month. About three-fourths
of the corn area of the state is now
beyond danger of injury by frost, and
a considerable part of the balance is
rapidly nearing maturity. While it
is certain the total output of the crop
will be much below the returns of 1902
yet it is likely to possess greater COM
mercial and feeding value. Excellent
progress is being made in blowing,
fall seeding and harvesting in minor
crops.
The potato crop as a whole will be
much below the average. Apples and
grapes are better than earlier reports
indicated.

Why Do They Cure
When Others Fail !?

Because they have spent years in
hospital and post graduate courses.
Because they devote all their time to
the treatment and cure of chronic dis
eases.
Because they have the latest scien-
tific appliances with which to cure.
Because they use the medicine that
will produce the best result regardless
of cost.
Their method of treating rheuma-
tism, deep seated inflammations Of
joints, muscles, nerves, periosteum,
liver, kidneys, bladder, ovaries, etc.
consists in forcing the medicines di-
rectly into the diseased parts (not
with a syringe) but by magnetic infiu-
ence produced by an apparatus made
for that purpose. 1t is harmless. 1t
is painless. 1t cures. The medicines
are placed on metallic plates, covered
with cotton. You can see it pass
through the part being treated from
one plate to the other.
For our METHOD of curing catarrh,
diseases of the lungs, stomach and
bowels, male and female weakness
blood and skin diseases, diseases OF
the rectum, call at our Office. Consul
tation free and confidential. Our of
fees in Davenport were opened five
years ago and are crowded daily by
people who are sent there by those
we have cured. We expect to make
our Ottumwa offices permanent
through the cures we aEe now max
ing. Our terms are now cne-half what
they will be later. If you can not call

PLENTY OF 1T.

All from Ottumwa People.

t"The proof Of the pudding is in the

the most skeptical. Read this testi-

that had at last obtained a remedy

Republican Speakers From Other
States Will Hold Meetings Here.

Des Moines, Sept. (SpeciaD =
Republican orators from other states
are expressing great willingness to
take part in the iowa campaign this
fall, much more SO than in former
years. This is due to various reas-
ons, among. them being the promin-
ence of Iowa in national affairs and
also the fact that Iowa is one of the
few states holding elections this year.
Congressman Lands Coming.
Congressman C. r. Lands of the
ninth Indiana district is the latest to
signify his willingness to assist the

of speeches this fall, as he has done
in all campaigns for the last ten or
fifteen years. Colonel Palmer is a
candidate for reelection as railroad
commissioner, having been renominat-
ed by reclamation at the state CON
vention. He is one of the best cam

most all the year round, as he is al,

County Auditor |. Fl. Hammond. The
county and state tax consolidated fur
nish 1913 mills of the total, the city
corporation tax 41.5 mills and the vari-
Gus school funds 34.2. There is also

extended on the second half until OF
tober /. If the first half is not paid
on April 1 the whole tax is considered
due and penalty of one per cent for

Many Meetings Scheduled.

Many Meetings Scheduled.
The speaking campaign will be con-
tinued without further interruption
from now until election. AS yet no
assignments have been made for any
speakers except Governor Cummins,
but beginning with next week several
OF the congressman and number of
other prominent campaigners will be
in the field. Manager Dawson of the
speakers bureau expects to be here
from now until election and he will be
found in his office every day The
prospects for the speaking campaign
are very good-better than is usual in
off years.
Good Organization.
Chairman Spence says that the First
and Second district conferences which
were held Monday were among the
best of the entire series. The at
tendance was large at both meetings
and practically all of the deputy
chairmen were present. The confer
ences were enthusiastic and showed
that the First and Second districts are
better organized this year than they
have been for some time.
Speech Widely Read.
Practically every republican week
ly paper in the state is using the sup
plement containing Governor Cum
Minis address with its weekly edi-
lions. In all, nearly half million
copies will be distributed. This will
give the address wider circulation
than has ever been given any cam
paign speech delivered in the state
The comments regarding the COVER
nor's address are very favorable and
without exception the republican pa
pers of the state unite in pronouncing
it a most able campaign speech and
one which will be the keynote from
now until election.

The Good Little Aberdeen Angus, tn g
Small Farmers Fuvorite

Examining IN Angus bull for the
first time, we shall notice first his
black color. He is all black, the only
white allowed being Il little on the UNI
dcrlinc behind the naval. Occasionally
red calves are dropped. We note an
entire absence of horns. BOT even scurs
are allowed.
The form is very typical OF the breed.
Willie the requirements of Il first class
beef animal demand Il rounded form
here we find this carried to an OK.
trcmc and the 'barrcl shape" is a
characteristic that the Angus claims
peculiar TO itself Viewed from any Ill
rCction, this marked rOtundity is
prominent, and one notices, too, how
low set the animal is, his great style,
quality, compactncSs and symmetry.
In the feeder we find all the indica-
lions of good bcefmaking machine
and in the finished animal every re-
quircmcnt of market topper. We
see short legs and neat, fine bone and
most particularly the wonderful
smootlncSS which even the most eX-
trcmc forcing is hardly able to mar.
The head is very characteristic 80
short, wide, clean cut, with Il muZzle
whose capaciouS mouth and large nos
trils denote excellent feeding qualities
and strong powers of constitution, sur
mounted with Il tuftcd poll that is
sharp and higher in the female than
in the male and ornamCntcd with eyes
of rare beauty and large, hairy ears,
elegantly carried, the whole set to the
body with neck almost as short as
that of Hereford. The Angus head is
an index of the excellence that we are
to find behind it.
Note the tremendous width of chest,
with legs set we'll outside the bod,
the spring of rib and deep, heavy
flesh. Observe the completeness, how
closely the ribs are Joined to the hind
