WOMAN WINS PRIZE AT
HUBBARD CORN SHOW,
Many Boys Beat Their Daddies-A
Permanent Exhibit To Be
Kept Open.

Hubbard, Texas, Oct. 12.-The corn
show is still the topic of discussion at
Hubbard. Numbers OF farmers have
expressed regret at not having entered
the contest. All who have tried scien-
tific or government farming this year
are well pleased. Several farmers who
formerly claimed that there was moth
ing in scientific farming now admit
that they were wrong. Mr.. Z. T. Hill.
whose son. Lyles Hill, is corn club
boy, says that he is now ready to ad-
NIT that his boy beat him raising corn.
The corn club boys who entered the
show are delighted. They are making
preparations for next years crop.
Three of them. Merrill Jones. Homer
Truly and Newton Johnson, and per-
haps others will. obtain certificates of
merit from the governor because of
making over fifty bushels per acre.
The seven hundred and seventy ears
of corn that were in the show are ar
ranged as an all-winter exhibit in two
rooms near the office OF the secretary
of the Retail Merchants Association.
Every day men and boys come in and
to select and grade seed corn. Except
what is sent to the Dallas and San
Antonio fairs. this corn will be kept
on exhibitin till spring and will serve
as corn school.
In one room is the corn raised by
the boys of the corn club; in the
other, that raised by the men. In sew
eral instances fathers and sons com
peted against each other in the two
rival shows, and in each case the boys
did as well or better than their
fathers.
One of the most unique results of
the show was the winning of a prize
by woman. Mrs. i. J. Kay. Mrs.
Kay's corn won prize over eleven of
the best farmers in the county. The !
business men of Hubbard are well
pleased at this woman's success, for !
she works hard in the field herself
and deserves credit for what she has 4

Floral Etymoloqy.

primrose" is one OF those words
that have shown popular association
to be stronger than etymolcgy. 1t has
no real connection with the rose. but
is the old French "primcrole" and,
anyhow. means only the prime" or
first flower (more or less) Of the year
Our language has insisted upon max
ing roses" of all sorts of flowers
We have the tuberose which is only
"tuberosa,' tuberous. and the rose
mary. which is ''rosmarinus," dew Of
the sea. On the other hand the rose
has been dropped readily enough in
cases where popular fancy could not
see the flower. The alchemists called
green vitriol rose of copper" 'cup-i-
rosa" In French this became coupe
rose" but English wore it down to the
pointless "copperas." -London Chron-

drives as a tangible investment which
he sees endangered and feels called
upon to defend.
AS the Ohio judge says. the law
gives him no redress; so he Is forced
to rely upon his own charms with the
girl or his fists with the other fellow.
Frequently he finds his fists more eff
fectiye than his charms.
Resort to violence may be morally
wrong as well as illegal; but what
else Is the engaged young man with
all his affections and cash invested in
the girl tod do in self-defense?
II all such young men were to sit
still while other young men coolly
walk off with their fiancees. 1t would
not be long until engagement would
be held as lightly as marriage itself.
If the engaged girl has the right
to accept the attentions OF all men,
it follows in all fairness that the en-
gagged man is likewise free to pay at
tentions to other young women. or
course. the complications may be SIM
plified at any moment by calling the
engagement Off No doubt this is the
sensible way after all.
For the engaged young man who
must use his fists to keep the en-
gagged girl faithful to him before mar
riage will not find in matrimony an
end to his roubles.-Wichita Beacon.

Tho Twelve Jurymen.

A prisoner is tried by twelve of his
fellow countrymen. This custom is u
thousand years old, and we get it from
the vikings. The vikings divided their
country up into cantons, which were
subdivided into twelve portions. each
under chieftain. When malefactor
was brought TO justice it was usual
for each chieftain to select man from
the district over which he ruled and
compel him to try the prisoner, the
verdict of these twelve men being de-
clared by the judge to be final.

You and Your Hated RIVAL

An Ohio judge has decided that a
young man engaged to young wom-
an has no legal right to assault any
other young man whose company she
may accept. In deciding case in
volving such an assault, the judge
said
IAN engaged woman has the right
to go with others. The fiance may
have an action against her tor preach
of promise, but he can have no action
against the third party. After mar
riage the third party may be sued for
alternating the wifes' affections. But
an engagement is merely a promise to
enter into the marriage contract. The
engagement. of course, should be held
sacred. but Just tire same the lady has
the right to accept the attentions of
other men,"
For the engaged young man to sub
nit in peace may be law. but it IS not
human nature.
