Some Corn.

C. w. Pilgrim brought us in our
first sample of corn for this year
Saturday morning. It's worth trip
to this office to have look at it, and
just see what good old Winneshiek
is doing, while from almost every
where else there goes up wall of
failure of crops. Talk about land,
Winneshiek is the Garden of Eden,
if we only think so. We never have
a crop failure, we have the best
scenery in the middle west, We have
good health, everybody is prosperous
and happy, and we have the best
people on earth. What more could
anyone ask? BY the way, that is
fine corn, good full ears, hard kerr
nels, just fine, and only the 10Th of
August.

The Band at Ridgeway.

The DEBORAH Merchants Band and
quite a number of citizens went to
Ridgeway Friday evening in auto
mobiles, and the band gave concert
at that place. The trip was made to
boost the county fair next week,
as was the trip to Ossian week or so
before that, and it was very pleas
ant innovation for the people OF
Ridgeway, who turned out in force
and greatly enjoyed the splendid
playing of the band. Everybody had
a good time, and incidentally the
fair got some good advertising. W.
believe it will result in large at
tendance from Ridgeway.

Tip For County Officials.

Des Moines, Aug. 21.-The un-
willingness of county officials to con-
form to ordinary business principles
in dealing with state officials is the
cause of much annoyance at the
state house at times. For instance,
when the county treasurers Endorsed
the auto road fund checks sent out
last week great many of them
made faulty Endorsements. One was
signed simply the name Of the treas
urer, another with rubber stamp,
not the name of the treasurer, but
treasurer of county" One
signed merely his name with the
word treasurer" following; yet
every one should have been signed
officially by the treasurer OF the
county as such. Frequently remit
tances are received consisting merely
of a check with not a word of ex-
PLANTATION of any written communi-
cation, and of course all such are
sent back, or await correspondence,
so that the records may be kept
straight.

Work of WOmans Relief Corps.

There was a very pleasant occa-
sion at the G. A. r. hall Saturday
afternoon. At the close of the reg
ular meeting of the Post ladies of
the Relief Corps appeared and treat
ed the comrades to ice cream and
cake, and a pleasant social followed.
There was a surprise for one of the
comrades and his wife when they
were presented with a gift which had
been prepared by the ladies.
Part of the work of the Relief
Corps this summer has been max
ing cushions for the Soliiers' Home
at Marshalltown. The very nice let
ter of thanks which came in &C
knowledgement assures the ladies
that the cushions were the most &C
ceptable of anything that could be
sent them. The government fur
nishes all the necessities but there
are some things that can be added
for their comfort. The Corps expect
to send a package of gifts to the
Soldiers Orphans Home soon.

IOWA ROADS BEST.
Cross Country AutOists Declare
IOwa's Dragged Dirt Roads
Excel Anything Else.

Mr.. ]. H. Baker of Salt Lake City,
Utah, born and reared in DEBORAH,
has been reading the state wide
campaign for good roads in Iowa.
by this and many other papers OF
the state, and sends us the following
clipping from Salt Lake City daily,
which shows what the campaign has
done for Iowa:
After travelling over 1000 miles
by automobile, S. d. Evans, r. C.
Johnson, l.. J. Reynolds and w. j.
Shelley arrived in Salt Lake City last
night. The party went from this city
by rail to Buffalo, where Mr.. Evans
had left his automobile several
weeks ago. From Buffalo they took
boat to Detroit and then made a
cross country trip through Michigan
to Holland, where boat was again
taken to Chicago. The party left
the metropolis of Illinois on August
3rd in the automobile and travelled
across the states of Illinois, Iowa,
Nebraska, Colorado, Wyoming and
through Utah from the eastern line
to Salt Lake City.
The best roads found on the trip
were in Iowa, where the King drag
has been used extensively. Through
this part of the country the party
made an average of twenty-five
miles an hour. In the western part
of Illinois the party encountered
considerable mud, which made travel
rather SLOW The roads through
Nebraska were fairly good.
About fifty miles east of Denver
the party ran into a heavy hail and
thunder storm, hail stones the size
of pigeon eggs falling for some time.
The storm lasted for nearly an hour
and was followed by flood that
made the roads almost impossible.
From Denver north to the Wyom-
ing line some bad stretches of road
were encountered, due to heavy
rains. The roads through Wyoming
are declared by members of the par
ty to be the worst that they found
on the entire trip. After striking
the Utah line good roads were found
until Salt Lake City was reached. )"

COVERING FREEPORT ROAD.
Final Work Being Done on New
Sand Road South of FreepOrt,
by Commercial Club and
Farmers.

Mr.. A. T. Holton and his force of
men resumed work last week on the
Freeport sand road, that stretch of
bottomless sand south of Freeport
on the Waukon road, which cults off
mile and quarter of the road, and
which the DEBORAH Commercial Club
and the farmers east of the city
started to rebuild a month or two
ago. Work was suspended during the
very hot weather and the busy har-
vest time, after the relocating of the
road and grading had been complet-
ed, and now the road is being cover
ed with thick, heavy clay, which will
pack over the sand base and make
road as hard as adamant. This
is an expensive and tedious piece of
work, but when completed will make
a splendid road, and be a great con-
venience and saving to anyone driv-
ing east of DEBORAH, and especially
the farmers out Glenwood way.
When this is completed the Com
mercial Club expects to take up the
road between there and Trout Run,
the bad sand road which runs along
side of the county farm, and if suffi-
cient funds are at hand make a good
road clear to DEBORAH, a road which
has been sadly neglected for years
and years.

SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT.

/ wish to announce to my
friends and customers all
= through Winneshiek county
= that | have returned from my
72nd business trip to New York
City, where | have purchased,
y without question, the largest,
the best, and the most up-to-
date stock of clothing and fur
" nishings which has ever been
brought to the city of DEBORAH.
In truth, l am free to make
the statement that no city in
8 America the size of DEBORAH
will possess the stock of mems
and boys goods which will COM
pare with ours in quality and
y selection. l want to impress
. this fact on the minds of the
people of this county, as we'll
as surrounding counties, as it
is worthy of note.
Without exaggerating, / beg
to announce, the goods which |
have just purchased and which
are fast coming in, are just as =
good as money will buy them, I
and as / am so we'll connected
with a number of the largest
wholesale clothing people in the
United States, | can make the 4
statement, without a question
of doubt, that | am better pre-
pared to give better values to
buyers Of clothing than any 4
other merchant in the country. 4
| would not be so positive in 4
this statement were it not for
the fact that | know full we'll,
for more reasons than one, that 4
tional values, and | am further
prepared to say, without contra
diction, customers can come to
this store and buy their goods
as cheap, and in many instances
very much cheaper, than in any
other store in the United States.
This is surely a broad state
ment but it is no trick for us
to prove it to any one. The
policy of this store is to sell
good honest merchandise at a
square dealing price, and while
We make some little profit on
the goods we sell, the profit is
very small because the many
goods we sell makes us some
little money during the year.
We know what We are talk
ing about when it comes to
clothing, as | have done nothing
else for Sc years, and l am
frank to say it will pay every
head of the family in Winnie
shiek county, as we'll as others,
to come to our store and buy
their goods, knowing full we'll
they will save good many dol
lars by giving this store their
patronage.
In conclusion | want to add,
great many of our goods are
here, as we wanted them in the
store in time for the Winnie
shiek County Fair, and those of
you who come to DEBORAH to at
tend the fair are courteously
welcome to make this store
their headquarters.
Please come and see us and
make up your mind that this is
"a store of the people," where
the best quality of merchandise
is sold for the least price.
Thanking those who have al
ways been our customers for
their loyal support, and asking
you to continue to be our GUS
toners, / am very sincerely,
BEN BEAR,
Square Dealing Clothier.

The National Bank of DEBORAH
Depository OF the United States
Are You A Money Saver?

Most every one expects to be money saver
some time.
Some people when their income is
larger others plan to when their expenses
are less.
People who wait until they can save without
effort rarely begin to save they wake up some day
filled with regrets because of the opportunities
they have missed
The moral is: Begin regular saving at this
bank NOW whatever the income, make the outgo
little less and save the difference.
1t a simple matter to start savings account
here.

HOrseracing Not i'm 1t.

A recent visitor to Dakota tells
me this story:
1t was in one of the small towns
where there is not much doing in
the summer. How do you pass
away the time here" was asked Of
the native.
"Oh, we get along all right"
pitch horseshoes or swap lies?"
Nope. You see, the wind al
ways blows here, and when things
get dull we each of us pick out a
good tumble weed, and then we
take them down to the end of the
street and bet five dollars each on
which one gets to the other end
first. Say, horseracing isn't in 1t
for fairness and excitement"

one point to an advance of one point.
There was big business on the call
but sellers seemed rather the more
aggressive and foreign private reports
of showers in Texas, active months
broke to a net loss of and y points.
Liverpool was better than due early,
but declined sharply toward the hour
of the local openi, with the later cab
les 9 IL to 10 points lower
Private crop reports received early
We're of rather bullish average, in
dicating rapid deteriorations in south
western prospects, but appeared to be
offset by the reports of lower tenn
peratures and showers.
Leading bull and trade interests
came to the support of prices on the
early break and with smaller traders
nervous, prices rallied to nearly the
closing figures of yesterday. But
continued reports of improved condi-
tons in the southehwest, together with
continued southern selling orders,
caused renewed weakness late in the
forenoon and prices were only 2 or
3 points up from the lowest at mid
day.
