CAMPAIGN OF EDUCATION.

The Extension Division of the
Minnesota Department of Agricul-
ture regards the testing of seed corn
of such vital Importance to the
farmers of Minnesota that in few
days it will distribute large posters
showing by photographs how to
test seed corn and giving full in
structions in regard to the work, so
that each farmer may be enabled
to test for himself. These posters
will be sent to the banks through
out the state, to railroad stations,
creameries, etc, to get the matter
as far as possible before the people
in abundant season for them to
make early germination tests. The
division regards the matter of test
ing seed as exceedingly important
this year, and will give all the help
it can to everybody who wishes it..
Write for information, look for the
posters, read the papers. The
Division is availing itself of every
possible channel of getting this in
formation before the people,

Minnesota newspapers should ad-
wise their farmer friends to tes t
their seed corn at once and see what
per cent termination test they can
get. Remember that though much
of the corn of last years crop looks
good the germ is dead and to plant
it will be a waste of time and loss of
money. Take no chances this year.

NYMORE.

The business men of Nymore are
looking forward with expectation of
increasing business when the saw
mills of the Crookston Lumber CON-
pany and the Bemidji Lumber CON-
pany begin the seasons saving,
which, it is understood, will be the
first of next week. Quite a number
of Nymore and Mill Park men
folks" are employed in one or the
other of the two mills; and the hoarse
whistle of the engines will be well
coined as forerunner of another
season of hard work and good wages.
Where will the 500 grade strike
Nymore" is question which is
agitating Nymore folks; and there
are several rumors of a disquiet-
ing nature relative to the intention
of the new road to run its line
directly through the village. How
ever, the fastest information is to
the effect that the 500 will enter
Bemidji in a manner that will not
disturb Nymore, as she now lies,
to any great extent.
The new village council of Nymore
will meet on the 24th inst, when
several matters of importance to the
village will be considered. The new
council and the old met jointly last
week, at which time the new elective
officers qualified, as follows: O. J..
Tagley, president; Wallace Guy and
Charles Schmidt, councilmen; Peter
Void, recorder; Willis Nye, treasurer
and justice of the peace. The new
elective officers, marshal, etc, will
not be named until the regular meet
ing of the council to be held the first
Monday in April.
The county option meeting held
in the fire hall Sunday afternoon
was attended by a record-breaking
crowd, the hall being filled to its
capacity.

REAL AND MYTHICAL
GRADES OF COTTON

Washington. in real cot
ton recognize nine grades Of the sta
pie but the New York stock exchange
dabbles in 80 grades that are more
or less mythical. Among experts
there is not always agreement as to
the grade of cotton in a bale and to
overcome these disagreements the de-
partment of agriculture has prepared
samples of each grade that will rank
as the official standard in transac-
tions in real cotton. The grades were
established through the cooperation
of experts in and out of the depart
ment and their distribution has been
begun in order that the standards may
apply to the crop season of 1910-11.
The price of a set of samples is $35.
which Is the cost of their preparation
and It must be imposed under the

Leading men in the cotton business
both in this country and in Europe,

have expressed themselves in terms
of the highest commendation.

There would not be a case of indi-

virtue contained in Diapepsin. This
harmless preparation win digest a
heavy meal without the slightest fuss

overcoming all foul, nauseous odors
from the breath.
Ask your pharmacist to show you
the formula, plainly printed on each

you will readily understand why this
promptly cures such symptoms as
heartburn, a feeling like a lump OF
lead in the stomach belching Of gas
and eructations of undigested food,
water brash, nausea, headache, bill
iousness and many other bad symp-
toms; and, besides, you will not need
laxatives to keep your stomach liver
and intestines clean and fresh.
If your stomach is sour and full OF
gas or your food doesn't digest, and
your meals don't seem to fit, why not
get a 50-cent case from your druggist
and make life worth living? Abso-
lutte relief from stomach misery and
perfect digestion of anything you eat
is sure TO follow five minutes after,
and besides, one case is sufficient TO

and digest your meals, is about as
handy and valuable a thing as you
