SEEK TO BRING NATIONAL
GRANGE TO THIS COAST

Spokane. Wash-Western delegates
to the national grange convention at
Atlantic City, n. j. November 9 to
10, will make a determined effort to
bring the 1911 meeting to the Pacific
northwest, recommending Spokane as
the logical city. The formal invita-
ton will be presented by C. B. Kegley,
master OF the Washington state
grange, composed OF $4,000 active
members
"Mr. Kegley has been instrumental
in instituting and organizing los
oranges during the year ending Sep
tember go" said r. ]. Mclean, sec
retary OF the Spokane chamber of
commerce, which is cooperating with
the western delegates. This is 40
more than were organized in the
state Of Michigan, the next highest
on the list. 1t illustrates the interest
that is being shown among farmers
in getting together and carrying out
the idea Of closer community inter-
ests in the rural districts Of the stao.
THAT Spokane Is able to take care
OF national conventions is evidenced
by the success OF the National Irri-
CATION congress and the second Ma
tional Apple show in 1909, and the
International Dry Farming congress
the early part of last month. These
gatherings were attended by delegates
and exhibitors from 29 states and five
provinces in Canada and there were
representatives from foreign coun-
tries. including England, France,
j Germany, Russia, Mexico, China, ia
pan and Australia, who also brought
exhibits.
The third National Apple Show
! during the week of November IA, will
bring together representatives oi
| practically every state and province
on this continent and exhibits of ap'
pies from many commercial orchard
districts in America.
Spokane Is in the heart Of the
highest developed agricultural an
horticultural district in the country
and we have excellent railroad facili
ties and hotel accommodations to han
die the convention"

II IS TIME TO PAY YOUR TAKES.
If Net Paid This AEontl, They Suffer
g Penalty.

Probably it has slipped from the
memory of several Decatur county
taxpayers that this is the last month
in which they have to pay up their
taxes to escape the penalties imposed.
County treasurer Monroe finds that
his books show quite a number of de-
linquent taxpayers and in order that
they may not allow the matter to Slip
their minds and be forced to pay the
penalties attached to allowing them
TO so until after the first of the COM
ing month wishes to bring the matter
to the notice of the public. Below is
given a synopsis of the Iowa tax
laws:
Taxes become due on the first
Monday in January and delinquent on
March LIST. On the first day of April
| per cent is added and one per cent
per month until paid. One-half of the
tax may be paid, exclusive of the road
tax and special tax before the first
day of April, and the remaining half
before the first day Of October follow
ing without penalty.
On the first Monday in December
OF each year the lands are sold for
taxes when a penalty of 8 per cent
attaches, and that with the principal
uraw interest at the rate of 8 per cent
per annum. On the first day of April
after the sale the purchaser has a
right to pay subsequent taxes and
collect the same penalty and interest
as on the sale. Three years after sale
the purchaser is entitled to a deed.

CROP EXPERT SAYS
MUST TEST CORN
WITH MUCH CARE
Dr.. Geo, NJ. Chapel, Director of
Iowa Climate and Crop Ser
vice Bureau, Issues a
Warning,
CONDITIONS ARE WORST EVER
Advises Farmers to Test Every
Ear of Corn Before Planting to
Insure Good Crop-Geo. A.
Wells, of Grain Dealers
Association Also Is
sues Warning.

Dr. Geo. NJ. Chappel, director Of the
Iowa Climate and Crop Service
Bureau, has issued a second warning
to Iowa farmers relative to the condi-
ton oil corn and the prospects for next
years crop. The state and govern
ment official says that unless there is
great care exercised in the selection
OF seed for the spring planting next
falls crop is liable to fall far below
the normal yield
DR.. Chapel, in his official capacity,
received reports from every county in
the state and is in position probably
better than any other man to know
the truth. Dir. Chapel says:
Corn, in regard to its terminating
qualities, is in the worst condition
ever before known in Iowa. The cold
wave that swept over the state on the
18th and 18th OF October last, with
as low as 10 degrees in
many sections OF the state, not only
killed the plants but froze the ears to
ing warm and wet weather during
the remainder of October and the
month OF November added to the
damage done by the hard freeze. Even
the corn that had been picked prior to
the cold wave, unless it was stored in
a dry and warm place, was seriously
injured by the freeze, and it behooves
all farmers to thoroughly test every
ear. Owing to more favorable
weather conditions during the plant
ing and growing season, corn matured
some earlier over the northeastern
counties, and | am of the opinion that
it will be possible to find higher per-
centage of vitality in that section
than in any other part OIL the state,
but even there a large proportion OF
the corn was caught by the cold
weather. The situation is serious and
action should be taken at once to Sc
cure good seed, or this years crop
will &c short
This warning word from DR.. Chap
pei, however, is voiced by every other
crop expert in the state who is
familiar with the conditions. Realizing
that the prosperity Of the state depends
ness and professional men in De5
Moines and other big cities have in
terested themselves in encouraging
the farmers to use care aud be sure Of
crops by careful painting. Geo. 4.
Wells, secretary OF the Iowa Grain
Dealers Association, has just issued
the following warning:
I'VE DESIRE TO CALL YOUR AT
,TENTION TO THE FACT THAT THE
CONDITION OF THE SEED CORN
AS TO TERMINATING QUALITY is
VERY UNAVOIDABLE THIS

DOUBT SUFFER SERIOUS LOSS II
