heel comes down, after which
the outer edge Of the foot takes
the bulk of the burden until
the forward movement shifts
the weight to the ball of the
foot and finally to the toes.
The ideal step is a slightly rock
ing motion. At no time should
the entire foot be pressed again
st the ground. Heel to tue is
the movement. Try it and see
how much farther and more cas-
lily you can walk. It's the Ind

we but look for them. When
we stop to consider the fact
that 1t only takes twelve ears
of corn to plant an acre, it in
deed is a very serious matter to
leave this seed corn of ours out
in the field on the stalk, where
Jack Frost is liable to beat US
to it. Let us not forget the
experiences of last year. It is
just good business that every
ear of corn we use for seed be
picked between now and the
first of October. The large,
we'll matured ears are there in
your field, and whenever you
select twelve of them you have
enough to plant an acre.
1t will not be necessary to
run Seed Corn Special trains
next spring to illustrate the
poor condition of the seed corn
if our farmers will select their
seed corn before the cold
weather, and hang it up in a
proper place for storage.
When selecting your corn for
seed do not forget the Eighth
Annual Exposition and Con-
test of the Iowa Corn Growers
Association which will be held
in the Coliseum at Des Moines
from tine 5th to the 18th of
next December. Over $4,000
in premiums will be given
away at this time, including
81, 900 in cash for the best oats,
offered by the Quaker Oat
Company.
Let us pick our seed corn
early this year, and at the
same time watch for the very
best ears, and bring them to
Iowa's great Corn Exposition
and Contest.

High School Football.


The football season at the
high school opens Saturday
when the local team meets Go.
Bluffs High School at the Fair
grounds. The team has been
working for about three weeks
and is getting in good trim to
give good account of itself
in game. Most of the work
up to the last week has been on
the rudiments of the game and
the boys have shown great inn
provement. The past week
they have been working out a
set of signals and are master
ing them gradually.
There are several old players
on the squad but most of them
are new to the game; all are
however showing up we'll in
preliminary practice and the
prospects are excellent for the
best high school team that Mo.
Valley has had in many years.
The high school spirit, which is
so necessary for the success of
any of its activities. has increas
ed wonderfully in the past few
days and the high school as a
body have become real boosters
This years team will be heavy,
averaging about 150lbs., and it
will also be fast. Most of the
players are practically fitted
for the new game and they are
learning it rapidly. The follow
ing schedule has been arranged
which will provide the team
with good opposition ard pro.

To The Farmers of Iowa

Let us not forget the condi-
ton that so many of our farm
ers experienced last fall by
having Jack Frost seriously
visiting the seed corn before
we had secured that for next
years planting. Every farmer
knows that low degrees Of tenn
perature will seriously injure
his seed corn, especially when
the corn contains a large
amount of moisture. If we go
out into our cornfields right
now it will be found that in the
same hill for example, you will
find two stalks of corn each
an ear, each ear about the same
size, and possibly with the ex-
ception of maturity they will
BE- practically equal, and yet
one of them will have the husk
turning brown, the corn we'll
into the dent, matured sufi-
GENTLY to pick for seed, while
the other ear, although grow
ing on a stalk in the same hill,
it will be found to be very i'm
mature, containing a high per-
centage of moisture, and unfit
for seed purposes.
Now If you were to pick your
seed corn today what would
you do? Why Of course you
would pick the we'll matured
ear, and discard the other one;
but suppose you do not get your
seed corn now, and leave it until
tits time to fill the crib, and you
come to this same hill contain
ing these two stalks with the
same two ears. 1t will be i'm.
possible TO tell which Of the two
ears matured before the other
one, and what will you do?
Why naturally take them both
for seed. It would mean mill
ons of bushels of corn in in
creased yields per acre to the
state Of Iowa if her farmers
would go right out into the
field this month (the month Of
Scptember) and pick we'll ma.
tured ears right off the stalk.
1t will not be necessary te
take small, inferior ears. II
will be found that there ar(
plenty st large mature ears. Il

The Floral Hall is certainly

The Floral Hall is certainly
looking prettier than it ever
has before. The merch-
ants are taking hold in grand
style and some of the booths
show a great deal of thought
and work. Many calls came in
for booths that could not be
supplied on account of lack of
space. Exhibits are pouring in
by the wagon load and The Fair
grounds present an appearance
of activity not seen in a long
time.

advantage of the fact and
went in a body to Mr.. Thur

presented him with a $4,000
Morris chair. The surprise
had been premeditated by the
men and at 8 o'clock the ap.
pointed hour, they met at their
lodge rooms and then went in a
body to Mr.. Thurber's home.
Mr.. G. w. Kellogg made the
presentation speech and that
Mr.. Thurber was surprised
would be putting it easy. He
was so surprised and overcome
that it was several minutes be-
fore he could utter a word but
his eyes showed his apprecia-
ton. Cigars were passed and
a most enjoyable evening was
spent by the men. At II
o'clock, Mrs. Thurber served
a delicious three course lunch
con which was also enjoyed,
