Tooth Eonnd in Bows Ear.

Patton, Iowa, Oct. 2S.-A new
honor has been thrust upon the hair
pin. For the past year Ora, the IL
year-old son of Mr.. and Mrs. G.
Lensch, has been suffering from
something in his ear. He was taken
to the physician of the city and he
advised taking the young boy to a
specialist in Des Moines. That is
what they expected to do. The other
morning when the boy awakened
there was an intense pain in the ear
and ne asked his mother to make an
examination. She pulled hair pin
from her hair and looked in. She
inserted the pin pretty we'll into the
ear and thought she could feel a
hard substance. She finally succeed
ed in getting the head of the pin over
the obstruction and pulling on it, out
came full rooted tooth. How the
tooth got there is mystery.

Here's Prize Crop Story.

Jefferson, Ia, Oct. 29.-Where is
there a country which can beat
Iowa? Here we have a farmer in
Cedar township who is using corn
stalks as fence posts. He is cut
ting his corn and in order to let
nothing go to waste as fast as he
cuts he removes the fence back and
attaches it to his corn stalks, tying
the fence to the stalks. This may
sound exceedingly fishy but if there
are any incredulous he can come
here and see. Jefferson challenges
any county in the state of Iowa or
any other state to put up true
story that will equal this.

Cattle Disease Costly.

Mason City, Ia, Oct. ga dis
ease of cattle which 50 far has proven
a mystery to veterinarians is an
epidemic in the vicinity of Fertile and
the northwest part of this county.
William circuit has lost two valuable
cows, Henry Burtness seven head and
Chris PaulSon six.
The first symptoms noticed is a
severe hemorrhage of the bowels,
which weakens the animal and they
gradually go into a stupor. None
reaching that stage, so far, has been
saved. Several veterinarians have
diagnosed cases, but without naming
the disease. In the vicinity of Nora
Springs hog cholera is prevalent.
Henry Waller lost his entire herd.
Farmers are paying 80 cents per head
to have their hogs inoculated with

CowJess Nilk Beinp Made

Synthetic milk is the latest prod
net of the chemical laboratory. The
new milk is the discovery of three
German scientists at Frankfort. It
is the same color as the animal
liquid, and scientists accounts of
the discovery assert that it is more
nourishing and more easily assimi-
lated than the cows product, and
nontubercular. The artificial milk is
composed of vegetable ingredients,
digested by machinery instead of by
the COW and is said to keep sweet
longer than ordinary milk. Its
strength, it is said, can be standard
lied for the use of the family, in
FAINT or invalid. According to re-
ports the new product can be profit
ably manufactured to retail at six
cents quart. The next thing will be
the henless egg.

There Is every reason to believe that

would lie the election Of Governor WI.

Stability is impossible with Mr Tart

OF stability during his administration.
1t IN not that the president Is dis
tnrber of conditions or that he Is not
sufficiently careful OF the business In
terests of the country, The absence
of any feeling Of stability during the
Taft administration has been and is
due to Il widespread belief that there
