MEETING LOOKING TO PUTTING
OUT A CITY TICKET.

In anticipation Of the approaching
election of city officials, committee
representing the democratic voters Of
the city are holding meeting at the
court house this afternoon for the
purpose Of canyassing the situation
and preparing for the putting forth
of candidates.
The main question TO be discussed
by the committee is the question OF
drawing the party lines. Heretofore
the party lines have not been drawn
strictly In the city elections. The
candidates have been put forward On
entirely local issues without drawing
strictly party lines in the contest II
Is the opinion OF large number Of
the leaders Of the democrats hosts
that the lines should be drawn and
the contest fought out along strictly
party lines.
Several other matters will likely
be discussed by the committee this
afternoon also and plans laid for the
conducting Of vigorous campaign.

FOR ANOTHER
CORN CONTEST
Steps Being Taken isr q Lively
Time Among Farmer Boys

In anticipation Of the corn plants
ing season steps are, being taken tor
ward promoting corn growing con-
test amongst the boys Of the county.
A number of handsome prizes will be
awarded this year, which will be well
worth striving for by the boys of the
county who can secure the use of an
acre or more Of tillable land on
which to raise a crop Of corn. First
second, third, fourth, fifth and per-.
haps sixth and seventh prizes will
be offered. Just what the nature OF
these prizes win be has not been de-
termined as yet. but those who are
behind the movement assure the boys
that the prizes will be well worth
their while.
Superintendent Massey sent out,
this morning. application blanks to
the teacher of every rural school in
the county. All those who desire to
enter the contest are requested to
sign these blanks and return them 10
Professor Massey at once. The names
of those signing the blanks will be
entered as contestants and each will
be eligible to prize. The prize will
be given to the boy. or girl either.
who succeeds in producing the larg-
est amount OF corn on one acre. The
second prize will be given to the
next largest producer and so on down
to the sixth or seventh prize.
An exhibit will be held some time
after the corn is harvested and the
prize winner will be announced.
A small contest was held last year
in the county with very satisfactory
results. II is the intention this year
TO organize a well defined club and
get the contest on more systematic
basis.
The contests are now being held In
all parts OF the country With the re-
suit that interest in corn growing
and farming in general has received
new impetus. Those who enter the
contests have the opportunity TO dis
tinguish themselves and get theis
achievements before the public atten-
tion as much as those who distinguish
themselves in the professions.
