Miss ZEPHYR SMITH,
We've read and heard tell about
all kinds of tall corn raised around in
southwestern Iowa, but if you will
listen a minute, we'll tell you of
some corn that grew upon the JOSH
ua Cousin farm, little way east of
Brayton and was brought to the de-
pot by d. d. Parrott, his step-son.
Whom we got off the train, there on
tho depot platform lay three or four
stalks of corn and the tallest one
measured fifteen feet and three in
ches. 1t was about seven feet up to
the lowest ears and nearly nine feet
to the one fsrthest up tho stalk.
Well if you don't think that is so,
60 to the Audubon County Fair
whore these stalks are ON exhibition.
