These British c~ourtiers will pilot the proxy Of
President Taft all through the intricate prob
lem of the coronation festivities, telling him
just where to go, when to go and what to do
when he gets there. In addition Mr.. Ham.
mond will enjoy all the privileges and immuni.
ties which are secured by international Gus
tom to the ambassadors of all countries.
Whereas Mr.. hammond will be the most
conspicuous American at all the public events
connected with the coronation, he is the head
of what is known as a special embassy" and
the other members will come in for their re.
spective shares of glory. The official staff Of
the special ambassador will include O military
aid who will be a ~brigadier general of the reg
ular army and a naval aid who will be Of the
rank of rear admiral, and In addition there
will be three secretaries-young men chosen
more for their social qualifications than be-
cause of clerical ability.
The army and navy representatives in the
special embassy will of course don their spe-
cial full dress uniforms on all ceremonial occa-
eions during their stay in London, but the spe-
cial ambassador, alike to the regular envoy,
will not be asked to appear in fancy court at
tire of any kind or to make any elaboration
of the conventional evening clothes such as
he would wear at a White House reception.
There will be this difference, however, that
Mr.. Harmon will have to venture forth at all
hours of the day in his claw-hammer coat in
stead of reserving such attire for evening
events as he would do here at home. And
being somewhat short Of stature anyway, this
plain American citizen in his unobtrusive Co.'S
tune can scarcely expect to attract as much
attention in the big public parades as will the
princes of various nationalities who will be
present in all the s%plendor of vivid-hued court
costumes, bedecked with jeweled decorations.
Yet another American who will have official
standing at the coronation events will be Cap
tain Cove, the naval officer in command of the
II. s. S. Delaware, our newest and most power
full battleship. The Delaware, be 1t explained,
is to be sent to England for this special occa'
sion. The huge warship, it may be added
does not go to afford an impressive convey
ance for the special ambassador and his suite
On the contrary they will travel on the regular
ocean liners, but Great Britain has invited al
the nations on the globe to send warshlps U

pecially to a great naval review off the Engllsl

SAGE TEA WILL
DARKEN The HAIR
RESTORE FADED AND GRAY HAIR
TO NATURAL coLoR-DAN-
DRuFF QUICKLY
REMOVED.

There Is nothing new about the idea
Of using sage for restoring the color of
the hair. Our great grandmothers kept
their locks soft, dark and glossy by
using sage tea" Whenever their
hair fell out or took on dull faded or
streaked appearance they made a
brew OF sage leaves and applied 1t TO
their hair, with wonderfully beneficial
effect.
Nowadays we don't have to resort
to old-time, tiresome methods of gath
ering the herbs and making the tea.
This is done by skillful chemists bet
ter than we could do it ourselves and
all we have TO do is to call for the
ready-made product, Wyeth's Sage
and Sulphur Hair Remedy, containing
sage in the proper strength, with the
addition Of sulphur, another old time
scalp remedy
The manufacturers of this remedy
authorize druggists to sell II under
guarantee that the money will be re-
funded IL It fails to do exactly as
represented.
Don't neglect your hair. Get a bot
tie Of Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur to-
day, and notice the difference after q
few days use.
This preparation Is offered to the
public at fifty cents a bottle, and Is

A MISTAKEN REPORT
Barnes County Gets Poor Advertising
From Twin City
Papers.

Valley City Times Record The at
tention Of The Times Record was
called today to the item given be-
low, from twin city paper, giving
misinformation regarding the corn
crop of Barnes county:
Valley City, N. d., Oct. 11.--It is
estimated that Barnes county has a
corn crop OF 100000 bushels and the
problem confronting the farmer Is
what to do with It. Owing to the scar
city of feed last year. all kinds OF
stock were sold and there are fewer
cattle in the state than for years.
There Is no market for corn in this
state and unless some concerted ac-
ton Is taken BY the business interests
Of the northwest. much Of it will be
used for fuel. some stock Is being
shipped in for feeding purposes, but
not enough to relieve the situation ma
terially. Threshing Is nearly complet-
ed. Much late flax In yet In the fields.
Flowing is backward. :
The banker, who called The Times
Records attention TO this news item
declares that 1t is the poorest kind
Of advertising for the county, and
must have been sent out BY some
correspondent ignorant of the real
conditions Of the corn crop.

CORN COMPOSITION
THAT TOOK PRIZE

jamestown, N. D., Oct. 26.-The fol-
lowing is the prize composition on
corn in the children's contest in this
county:
Corn.
Corn is a native of the new world.
1t is thought to have started in
Mexico, and to have been carried north
and south by the Indians.
The Indians had grown IL for CEN
turtles before America was discovered.
They taught the first settlers how
to grow it. Had it not been for the
corn that the Indians shared with
them, the early settlers would have
died of starvation.
over three-fourths Of the worlds
corn crop is grown in the United
States. Nearly half of it is grown
in the seven states of Illinois, Iowa,
Nebraska, Missouri, Kansas, Indiana
and Ohio.
Over four-fifths of the farms in
the United States raise corn.
1t Is strong grower. usually pro-
ducing about twice as much food per
acre as is produced by any Of the
other grains.
Corn can be cultivated during its
growing season; this helps to kill the
weeds and to put the ground in good
condition, so that 1t fits well in rota-
ton of crops.
In order to raise the best corn crop
there must be a good rainfall during
the growing season and much sunshine
and warm temperature day and night.
Climate is more important in crop
growths than is the soil.
The chief use of corn is as a food
for all farm animals. 1t is easily d.
gested.
Some OF the products are corn oils,
oil corn cake, rubber for boots, shoes,
belts and linoleums. corn starch, and
paper. The finest candies and table
syrup are made from the glucose.
The people in this neighborhood
were encouraged to raise corn when
they found out how well our contest
corn yielded.
They all planted from fifteen to 100
acres last spring. am sure they
will put in much greater quantity
next spring.
My father will have about 900
bushels of good corn from twenty two
acres this fall--Nettie Albrecht. aged
IA years.

to $3.50. He sold his farm In tndi-
ana for practically enough 70 buy
the section Of land here at $40 an
acre.
Another Of these farmers from the
east Is Richard s. Mitchell who re-
Gently purchased the James M. Rus
sell farm. Mr.. Mitchell went to the
west Of Stutsman county and then
as far as the Ozark mountains in
search of good land. but finally de-
cided that this county was the place
for him to invest his money in a
farm.
The eastern farmers are going TO
the northern part Of the county In
particularly large numbers and with
all Of them bringing with them the
same qualifications and farming
methods that has caused the phe-
nomenal rise in land prices in their
home states, 1t is expected that their
advent Is to have a direct effect on
farm values here in the future.
