MANY "a Webster Citizen Knows

Nothing uncertain about the work of
Doan's Kidney Pills in Webster. There
is plenty of positive proof of this in
the testimony of citizens. Such evil
dence should convince the most skep-
teal doubteI. Read the following
statement:
John Sjoberg, Webster, S. d., says;
-Four years ago ! had a severe attack
of kidney complaint and suffered
intensely from pains in my kidneys and
loins. The kidney secretions became
scant and painful in passage and was
alarmed, for my condition grew so bad
that | had to give up work. After try
ing many remedies without getting
relief, Doan's Kidney Pills were highly
recommended to me and ] procured a
supply from the Irwin Pharmacy.
Their use brought the best of results.
The kidney disorders were corrected
and after ! had used three boxes of
this remedy. | was completely cured.
What is more gratifying, | have never
had the slightest recurrence of kidney
complaint.

Sunshine Through Clouds

BY Miss Minnie Mott
IL the world seems dark and dreary.
Clouds appearing in the sky.
If the tempest round thee lowers
And the breakers hoarsely cry,
Look not on the gloomy shadows,
That obscure the suns fair light.
On the morning twill be shining,
All thy Fathers ways are right.
Brave the heart that looketh upward,
Needing not the tempest wild;
Brave the faith that falters,
Trusting like a weary child,
In the morning JOY availeth,
Clouds and darkness pass away.
Lo; the beauty and the sunlight
OF a blissful cloudless day.

Day County Corn Contest

The Day County Corn School and
Contest was conducted by Prof. j. V.
Bopp, of the Northwest, Farmstead at
Webster November q and SO. A very
large number had signified their inten-
ton to be present, but the threatening
weather was too much for some to
brave.
Prof. Bopp is very assuring in his
work and all of his instruction is of
the positively practical order. Those
who came for the work were well
pleased with the work done.
There were t~wenty-nine entries in
the Day county corn contest in spite of
the cold wind and drifting snow on the
9th. The corn shown was sufficient to
prove that Day county is in the corn
belt.
Independence township led in the
number of entries and prizes, while
eight townships in all had sent in
exhibits.
The splendid success of Independence
township IS due to the fact that they
conducted a township contest last year
and that the same leaders worked
hard for the general good of the young
people this year, while the township
contributed $25 in cash to be given as
prizes within the township. This very
commendable action should be followed
by every township in the county.
The three highest scores were made
by Melvin Erickson, of Independence,
Berton Sunde, of Nutley, and Theo-
dore Tanberg, of Wheatland. Thes e
three win a trip each to the Mitchell
corn show January Is to 10, 1912, and
five, four and three dollars respectively
besides. While the others securing
cash prizes are as follows in order;
Mabel Erickson, DeForest Hastings,
Christina Danielson AMI julius B. Lik-
mes. The exact number of subscrip-
ton prizes cannot be stated at this
time.
The vim RS in the independence
township contest were as follows:
Melvin Erickson, Mabel Erickson, j..
B. Liknes, Thorbel Liknes, A. Homes,
Ole Holmes and Bonnie Erickson.
Township prizes to the amount of $25
being awarded.
A few samples sent in were badly
mixed with other corn and two entries
were not of the variety furnished Min
nesota number thirteen.
One of the most important lessons of
the school was this-that much of the
corn supposed to be Sc good this favor
able year is really dead and will not
make good if planted. Seed testing
is necessary to insure a good stand of
corn for next year. There were very
few samples in which there were no
dead ears and in three all were dead.
All who entered the contest should
examine their corn carefully and learn
how to tell these dead ears quickly or
almost at sight.
The Day County Agricultural asso-
citation decided to make preparation
for next years work and possibly to
enlarge upon the work to be UNDER
taken. A meeting will be held shortly
following the corn exhibit at Mitchell
and plans perfected at that time.
