Corn Contests Have Made Wonder
full Growth and Quality Of Corn
uae Greatly Tmnroved.

CO. 49,
Saturday, February 25th, 1911 Is a
day that will long be remembered, es'
pecially by the girls and boys OF
Lincoln county, the event being the
closing day of the annual meeting OF
the Farmers Institute and Corn
Growers Association which began on
the 23rd of February.
The first Corn Growers Association
organized in this state was organized
here in Lincoln county eight years
ago. Since that time a number OF
other counties in the state have or.
ganized like associations, from which
has grown the state organization.
These organizations, both county and
state, have already accomplished
much for the advancement Of agricul-
ture throughout the state and the
mind can hardly conceive Of the ben
efits to be derived from them in the
future. Should we compare the first
meeting here in Lincoln county with
the one just closed. it would appear
almost unbelievable to those who
have not seen them grow from an
exhibit of less than forty samples at
the first meeting to three hundred
entries at the meeting just closed and
in quality there is still greater i'm
provement. From corn that was SIM
ply corn has been developed q corn
that is equal to that grown anywhere
with like temperature and climatic
condition. Not only this but the idea
has spread and Is reaching out and
taking on new and advanced ideas
each year and as . result bays and
girls Of school age throughout the
state are becoming more and more In
terested in agriculture and domestic
science and the advancement already
made is marvellous as witnessed 10
the girls display of needle work,
painting and In cooking and the boys
display of judgmet In the growing and
selection OF corn and 1t is the inten-
ton of the board OF directors to put
on q short course In agriculture at the
next annual meeting and other feat

senator Gamble may have his rea-

the people Of this state? Does he
think the voters will stand for his

The Bragstad Bros Reinforced
Concrete Block Machines.

At the Omaha and Chicago Con-
crete Block shows the Bragstad Bros.
machine made the best blocks that
we're to be seen at either show. AT
least that vas the opinion of those
who saw the machine and the blocks
that it made.
The block itself, when used in a
building, makes that building abso-
lutely damp and frost proof and its
reinforcement tends to double it's val
ue. The blocks have a smooth, white
finish which gives them the appear
ance of marble or granite and it was
the opinion Of experts who viewed the
machine and it's work, that it is the
best on the market. Canton and the
surrounding country had better look
into the proposition and they will
then realize the true value of the
cement blocks for building purposes.
