Prof. Stevenson of Ames Visits
Decatur County.

Prof. Stevenson who has charge of the
soils department of the State AgPicult
ural college at Ames was at Garden
Grove last Friday being invited by
some Of the progressive farmers of this
section to come and view the crop con-
ditions in this part of the county at
close range, more especially the clover
fields.
In conversation with Prof. Steven
son we learned that he was very favor
ably impressed with the progressive
spirit among the farmers of this section
and that he was very much surprised
at the excellent crop conditions stat
ing that the crops were much better
here than any other part of the state
he had visited.
Some time ago an article appeared in
the American telling of the injustice
that had been done the county in gener-
al by the results of some experiments
with some soil taken to Ames from an
experiment station which was establish
ed south east OF Leon. The soil was Of
very poor quality and the bulletin that
was published as result would lead a
was desert. One statement in the
UulloIlu WAS w Gu0 cu6CU GudU CION0T
could not be grown here successfully
because Of several things the soil lack
ed, and that there was but about 800
acres in the county in clover. These
bulletins went all over the United
States and we think were the cause of
much adverse comment on the soil here.
Nearly every farmer who met Prof.
Stevenson took him to task regarding
the bulletin and it is quite likely he
learned that the farmers here take no.
tice of what the Agricultural College
is doing and it is probable that the
bulletin which is now under prepare.

RINGING BROS. AT CREsTON.
Worlds Greatest Show to Exhibit
There on Friday Sept. q.

The people of Leon will have an OPP
portunity on Friday Sept. 4th, of visit
ing Ringling Brothers Worlds Great
est Shows, the point of exhibition being
Creston, this season marks the twenty
NTH anniversary of this great circus,
and the Ringing Brothers are cele-
brating the year by presenting the
greatest European program ever offered,
parade that surpasses all those OF
the past, new and complete menagerie,
another brilliant spectacle, and the
most astonishing and sensational "thril-
Ter" in all history.
The thriller" is nothing less than
double somersault in mid-air made by
heavy automobile with Mile. La Belle
Roche, young French woman, at the
wheel. The car dashes down steep
incline from the dome of the tent An
abrupt up-curved terminal hurls TIE
car high above the heads of the audi
ence, where it accomplishes two COM
plete revolutions and then lands with
crash on narrow speedway, exhaust
ing its terrific momentum on the hip
podrome track.
This is an act that defies English. 1t
cannot be described, and when once
seen, the picture of it will be carried in
memory to the end Of life. 1t is the first
instance where single automobile has
turned two somersaults in space.
The worldwide character Of this years
remarkable company can be seen at a
glance. From France come the great St.
Leon family of acrobats; the Patty
Brothers, who walk, skip the rope
and dance on their heads; Burgess and
Clara, the gymnasts; the wonderful
Martell troupe of cyclists; the aerial
Millettes, and Miss La Belle Roche,
who does the dangerous automobile
double somersault.
From Italy have come the great Bedmi
family Of riders and the Marnello-Mar-
nitz quartet of acrobatic bellringers.
In Germany we're found Schadel, the
the great zebra rider; Marguerite and
Hanley, the gymnasts, and the Prosit
trio and Horton and Llndon, burlesque
bar performers. Riccobono, the worlds
greatest trainer of animals, and his mar
velous company of horses are from
Russia, and the Mira Golem acrobats
are from the court of the Shah of Persia.
Norwood and his trained bears; the
buttons and the Clarke Brothers, riders;
the great aerial Clarkonians and the
famous Jordan family are from England;
Kerslake and his company of pigs
that skip the rope and shoot the chutes
are from New Zealand, and the eight
Carnellos, acrobats; Alvarez, the aeria-
list; De Mario, the contortionist, and a
company Of burlesque bull fighters are
from Spain.

Strengthen

Nerve force like electricity is hard to ex-
plain.
One thing is certain. Nerve force can only
be created from rich, red blood.
Make the blood right and you erre diseases
of the nerves such as headache, indigestion,
sleeplessness, irrisability, weakness of the
bodily organs. prostration and partial paralysis.
This is the only way actual cure can possibly
be brought about, and because DR.. A. w.
Chase's Nerve Pills are great blood builders
they accomplish wonderful results in the cure
of diseases of the nerves.
