ESSAY BY Mary Smith Of Seventh
Grade school.

| --
The pupils OF the Seventh grade
Garfield building. Miss snider, teach
err, wrote essays on corn last week
..e best one was handed In by Mary
Smith, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. $
S. Smith. 1t is well written and is as
follows:
Corn Is plant belonging to the
grass family. The corn stalk aver
ages from six to fourteen feet in
height. The stalk is jointed and Is
dark green in color. The leaves are
long and narrow and come to point.
They are located at the Joints Of the
stalks. The fruit of the corn Is called
ears. The kernels are fastened on
q cob and covered with husks. There
is always an even number Of rows Of
kernels on cob. 1t has two kinds
of flowers. The one at the top called
the tassel bearing the stamens and
the one on the end of the ear called
silk bearing the pistil. II the pistil
Is destroyed there will be no kernels
on the ear. The ears are located at
the axils of the leaves.
Corn is mentioned In the Bible
by the early Egyptians. They used
the name corn for any small grain
such as rice, barley and wheat. Maize
or Indian corn was not known in Eu-
rope until after Columbus discovered
America. 1t is a native of the New
World and was first cultivated by the
Indians.
Flint corn Is an inferior voriety
and is raised in the northern part OF
the United States. Dent corn is
raised all over the corn belt. 1t IS
the corn Of commerce. Sweet corn
contains more sugar and is used
green srd is canned in greet quanti-
ties. Pop corn is used for 1000
and takes its name because when y
is heated 1t pops open.
Corn is planted in the spring. The
ground is first plowed, then disced'
The seed is planted with a corn plant
er. Sometimes It is put in with 9
lister and then the ground does moi
need to be plowed. 1t has to be cul-
tlvated several times after the plant
begins to grow. 1t is harvested IN
the autumn. A corn harvester if
used to cut and bind the corn. A
corn shelter is used to shell it. When
corn is wanted for fodder it has tc
be cut before it is ripe, The corn
binder is used. Fodder is used FOL
feed for cattle especially where pas
turage IS scarce.
The United States is the greatest
corn producing country in the world
1t produces eighty per cent OF th'
worlds supply. The annual yielt
IS 2,25O, 200, 900 bushels. 1t is val
ued at $7OO,O 600. Foreign coun
tries chat produce corn are Russia
Canada, argentine, Austria, ltall
and Egypt.
For mankind corn is prepared 10

For animals 1t is left on the ear

starch, glucose and alcoholic liquors
The cobs are sometimes made int

Dog That Travels Every Day and Sum
day too.

Salina Journal: Booze" the white
bull TERROR belonging to F. H. Hood,
the United States Express agent at
this place, probably knows more
about railroading, especially on the
Rock Island between Salina and Her
ington than any other dog in the
state. Booze" is fond Of railroading,
In fact he thinks that he is mistreated
when he is not allowed to take at
least two trips to Harrington each
week.
Saturday afternoon, the Rock Is
land passenger from Harrington was
about an hour late. This put the
train into Salina about $3.50 and the
crew had to make another round trip
to Harrington and back before their
days work was over. Consequently
every minute Of time was being used
to the best advantage. The express
car. was full and two men worked as
fast as possible to get emptied by
the time the train crew was ready to
pull out.
At this time Booze" was stand
Ing in the door of the express car
waiting patiently to see whether his
master would let him stay on the
car when it started. Mr.. Rood
jumped out of car with the last
package of express just as conduc-
tor Pike signaled to start.
"Come out of there, you can't go
today" said Mr.. Rood to the dog
who was perched in the coach. With
a little coaxing from Mr.. Rood and
the expressman in the car, Booze"
left the car door and jumped to the
seat Of the express wagon.
do you know you have to watch
that dog mighty close" said Mr..
Rood, "he would ride on the train
all the time II / would let him. He
goes to Harrington now once or twice
a week and he would put up great
howl If he didn't get to do 1t. He
wants to 60 every day.
"He is we'll acquainted along the
line and never gets lost. With the
train in full motion he will stand In
the car door with his front feet on
the iron which runs along at the
bottom Of the doorway which puts
about half of his body outside of the
car. A man couldn't do that with
out falling out. Booze doesn't mind
it one bit.
zone day not long ago Booze
undertook to see the country othe'
than from the train, He jumped OH
at Woodbine and didn't show up un'
til the next day at train time. What
he did at Woodbine, have never
been able to find out. He boarded
the train hte next day and came W
AZ far as Abilene where he jumped
off again. He stayed with the Rocl
Island agent there until the next day
at train time when he came home.
"This is the only time that M
failed to come back on time. He hard
" ever gets out Of the car. The KID
at every station know him and tr!
to coax him out but he knows wher'
his rides come from"
Booze" undertook to ride on tn
Missouri Pacific one day and proba
bly got enough to last him the res
OF his natural life. He jumped int
the express car here one morning OF
No. 4. The expressman put him OF
at Kipp. During the day at Kipp
some youngsters got hold OF him am
filled him full Of candy. Booze
got so sick that he came near flynn
his kite. Mr.. Rood says that sa
lima man happened to be in Kipp an
knew "Booze" SO he brought hin
back to .A.ina.

MILLIONS OF LIVES LOST
In the Awful Toll Collected by
Consumption.

If the people could only understand
thht Catarrh is an internal scrofula-
nothing applied externally does nue..
g5cd-they would not need to be warm
ed 50 often about this fatal disease
which, when neglected, inyaribly ends
up in Consumption, at the cost of mil
lions of lives every year. Yet Ca
tarrh is easily cured if tie right
treatment is employed.
Catarrh is caused by germs in the
blood which circulates thrcugthut TIT.
enire system External remedies Civ
ing but temporary ease. Although the
effects are often seen in the form of
pimples, rash, eczema or dry scaly
skin, the trouble is internal, and can
never be cured by external remedies.
The only way to cure catlrrh is by
employing a medicine witch is alb
s,rbed and carried by the blood to
all parts of the system, SO That the
mucous membrane or internl lining
Of the body is thr1ugbly medicated
sJ.thed, disinfected OF germ mat er
and tte soreness healed.
We have a remedy prepared from
the prescription Of a physician WHO
fer Thirty years studied and made
Catlrrh a speciality and whose re-
cord Of success was a cure in every
case wheIe his treatment was followed
as prescribed. That remedy is ReXall
Mucu-Tone. We are 50 positive that
il will cure Catarrh in all its
various farms, VT etter acute or
chronic, that we premise to- return
every penny paid us for the medicine
in every case where it fails to cure
or for any reason does not satisfy
the us.r.
We want you to try ReXall Mucu-
Tone on our recommended and guar
aptee. We have Rexall Mucu-Tone
in two sizes, TIE prices are soc. and
