Corn Picnic a Big Success.

The Corn Picnic held last Satur-
day at the c. A. Davis park north
west of town under the auspices of
the. Corn Club was one of the most
enjoyable public gathering ever held
In this part of the state. The day
could not have been better and the
crowd number exactly 1901, a man
standing at the gate all day with a
counting machine and kept correct
count. The popularity of this picnic
is growing and in a short time will
become one of the biggest gatherings
Of this kind in the state.

about ten o'clock. A very pleasing
and cordial address of welcome was
made by Fred Woolley, which was
Hutchinson which was well deliv-
cred. After this came the address OF
the day by Joe Kridlebaugh, of Char
iton, secretary to Congressman
Jameson, of Shenandoah. The peo-
pie were very much disappointed in
not getting to hear Congressman
Jameson, but Mr.. Woolley received
telegram the day before the picnic
that he would have to be in Nebras-
ka, however his private secretary
made an excellent address which was
very much appreciated. Miss Marian
Jennings gave a recitation after the
address in very acceptable manner,
and after music by the bands the
principal feature of the program,
the sumptuous picnic dinner was en-
joyed. Probably the most entertain
ing feature of the afternoons pro-
gram was the girls basket ball game
between Weldon and Garden Grove,
resulting in score of to in favor

The Doctors Question.
Some Advise Against the Use oil
Hard Purgdtives and
Physics.

A doctors first question when con-
suited by patient is, Are your
bowels regular?" He knows that
SO per cent of the illness is attended
with inactive bowels and torpid liver.
This condition poisons the system
with waste matter and causes ac-
emulation of gases which must be
removed through the bowels before
health can be restored.
Salts, ordinary pills and cathar-
tics may be truly likened to dyna-
mite. Through their harsh, irri-
tating action they force a passage
through the bowels, causing pain and
structure which weakens the whole
temporary relief The repeated use
of such treatments causes chronic ir-
ritation of the stomach and bowels,
dries and hardens their tissues,
deadens their nerves, stiffens their
muscles and generally brings about
an injurious habit which sometimes
has almost, if not fatal results.

MONEY BACK.
[. P. Van Werden Sells a Remedy for
/. Cdtdrrh on that Liberal Basis.

Breathe Hyomei over the germ
ridden membrane and it will kill the
germs and cure catarrh.
There is no other way-you must
get where the germs are before you
can destroy them.
And when catarrh germs have
disappeared, other things will hap
pen; there will be no more hawking,
not even in the morning; that often
sive breath will disappear; there will
be no more obnoxious mucous, or
coughing, or sneezing, or huskiness
of voice or difficulty in breathing.
All these disagreeable accessories
of the demon catarrh will disappear,
and as they go the glow of health
will return, and all the strength and
energy that was formerly used in
combating the inroads Of catarrh,
will bring back your vitality and
ambition, will make new, healthy,
happy being of you in few weeks.
L. P. Van Werden will sell you a
complete Hyomei outfit for $1.00.
This includes a fine inhaler, a bottle
of Hyomei pronounced High-o-me),
and instructions for use. Sold by
leading druggists everywhere. Extra
bottles so cents. And bear in mind,
money back if Hyomei doesn't cure.

Louis Hoffman won the first prize OF
$500 for the best half bushel OF
wheat, Mr.. Baker and Mr. Thomas
judging for the last two prizes.
The Weldon Marshall band was a
very pleasing feature of the program
as their stirring music never fails to
please. The corn picnic this year
will pass down in the history of this
part of the county as gala event
and a success in every particular
and gathering such as makes one
feel it was good to be there. The
Davis park is an ideal place to have
the gathering and the farmers who
manage it deserve many words Of

many more such picnics in years t.

THE COST OF A sPECTER

Editor of The Farmer. Sir
 The United States devotes two thirds of it's revenues to ghosts and specters Two-thirds of all the money handled is for the ghost of wars past; the Specter of future wars. According to the report for the year erided June 30, 1909. the chief expenditures was as fellows:
 Civil and miscellaneous, S164, ,000, ,O0O ar, ........-.... ............... 1o4,Voo'ooo Navy, 1loOUV,Voo Pensions, ...!.. l6I 0OO,OOo Postal deficit, .S. 1O,OCQ,OUO Interest on public Eebt, .... 21,OO0,O 900
 Pensions and the interest on the pub- lie debt are legacies of past wars. the ghost as it were. There is no dis position to reduce either item. But the other two big items are what we pay for the upkeep of the war specter.
 All that this great government spends for administration. for justice, for education. for agriculture. for pure food. for the preservation of it's for ests. for the struggle against disease. for maintaining it's commercial rela- tions, for pleasing it's neiehbors, for collecting it's dues, for searching its re- sources, for stocking it's streams, for lighting it's coasts and p6rts-all that is almost exactly equal to the amount spent for the specter of war. And the expenditure for the navy is like unto it.
 A. reasonable amount for laying specter is all very well, but two thirds of the national revenues-that seems just the least bit out of pro- portion. PORTER.
