Walter McCully.

After an illness of seven days of
a complication of diseases, Walter
McCully died at his home in Davis
City, on November "a, 1911. The
funeral was held at the home on
Saturday following, Elder Reed off,
ciating, interment being in the old
Davis City cemetery, by the side OF
his first wife.
Walter McCu1ly was born near
Ridgetown, Ontario, in 1886, and
grew to manhood there. He moved
to Michigan in 1859, and then to
Illinois in 1862, and came to Decatur
county, Iowa, in 1867, where he re-
sided continuously until his death.

married on October 21, 1894, to Miss
Elizabeth Rabidou, who survives
him, together with a brother and
sister, and an adopted son, to whom
he filled a true fathers part, and a
large circle of other relatives and
friends who sincerely mourn his de-
parture. So FAR as IS known he new
er made any profession of religion,
although the perfect honesty and up
righteousness in all his dealings are
worthy of christian emulation. He
was always staunch friend to all
in need, and was never known to do
dishonorable act in all his long
life. He had been engaged part of
the time in business in Davis City
for the past 27 years, coming to this
county in an early day and enduring
many of the privations of a pioneers
life. He had seen our vast prairies
transformed into fine homes and
beautiful farms, had helped build up
and make the country what it is
today. But his life's work is done
and he is gone to his long home.
Peace to his memory.

Mrs. Ovid Shoemaker.

Mrs. Martha Shoemaker, wife of
Ovid Shoemaker, died at her home
in Davis City, November FL, 1911.
The funeral services were held at the
M. e. church the following Wednes-
day, Rev. Geo. H. Wehn officiating.
The large and sympathetic audience
and the many beautiful flowers told
how dearly loved and esteemed was
the loved one lying there so peaceful
in her last long sleep. Martha M.
Adkins was the daughter OF Peter
and Ida Adkins and was born on the
old family home of her father in
Harrison county, Missouri, March g.,
1890. She came from there to Davis
City to make her home in 1907. Her
death came as severe shock to all,
as she had been very sick but was
getting better, and all thought her
on the way to a speedy recovery. Her
father and only brother had preced-
ed her to the Great Beyond, and she
is survived by her mother, six sisters,
an infant son only one week old, and
a loving husband with whom she
had gone out from the parental
home to share life within the year
just past, but the cold hand of death
was laid upon her and she has lain
down to rest. The body here with
the loved of earth but the spirit gone
to God who gave it, and in the spirit
world according to Gods own love
and mercy will await the resurrec-
ton morn. Having been cheerful
and kind while here we may feel
that cheerfulness and kindness will
await her there. And may the
heart-stricken husband, though left
for time alone with his sorrow, and
the dear mother and sisters, and all
the dear friends who feel so keenly
and sadly the loss of the dear one,
by Gods love be comforted and
helped to feel that behind the clouds
the sun still shines, and that stripes
as we'll as stars leads after God and
goodness. Peace to her ashes and,
joy to her spirit.
Oh, weep not for the loved one
So rudely from thee driven,
Twas but flower too good for earth
Transplanted into heaven.

CORN MAY BE $1.OO.
Outlook For High Values for Crop
On Account of Shortage
World Over

The statisticians of the depart
ment of agriculture at Washington
say corn selling at one dollar BUSH
eel is not only possible but probable,
| and they present an array of facts
and figures to prove their claims.
1t is pointed out by experts that
! the United States while the greatest
corn producing nation of the world,
has never been heavy exporter and
of the three billion bushel crop har-
vested in 1910, we sent abroad but
GO million bushels, or only about
212 per cent of the total.
This year there will be a tremen-
dous call for corn from all foreign
countries. In the first place the crop
in Argentina has been almost COM
plete failure, thus removing from the
worlds supply $50 million bushels.
The Argentina crop this year was
less than 81 millions whereas last
year it was IT'S million, and over 1906
million bushels of that was exported.
The farmers in Argentina have ask
ed that the import tax on corn be
taken off this winter as the country
must be heavy importer instead of
a heavy exporter as they have not
TaISeu SuuCIeAL lOT uOmc COASuup
ton an for seed.
Then again in Germany, France,
Austria, Bohemia, Hungary and Den
mark the root crops furnish the prin-
cipal feed for cattle, and as their
root crops have been short this sea-
son they must import corn.
The experts say the demand from
Europe must come soon, and that
80 cent corn is quite certain. This
may prove to be the limit as the
European countries cannot import it
at a higher price and afford to feed
it to their cattle. The department
says that with the probability of an
advance in price comes probability
of manipulation with resulting wild
speculation so that before spring
| dollar corn may be q reality.

is the simplest calling Making
newspaper is an easy trick. Anybody
can do it.
A lawyer with only diploma and

if the other side was ready to confess
Judgment, will tell you how to run
newspaper. A physician who would
send his patient to the mOrgue before
the prescription has been filled Will
know all the fine points of making
newspaper, An actor who never

a One reason for the universally OF
perfection in this trade, among those
who do not work at all, is that every
body has been employed in it. 1t is

That so many men have abandoned

Once at your age, he possessed the

deeds equal to nook in fame; anon
