CORN CROP IN GOPHER
STATE WILL Be LARGE

st. Paul, July 13.-With corn
rapidly forging upward under most
favorable conditions, the value of
the seed corn tests has been DEM
onstrated, for Minnesota promises a
bumper crop in 1912, according to
reports which have come to State
Commissioner of Immigration Max
field. Only a few localities complain
of conditions.
Twenty-Five counties have report
decrease, and eleven the same as
last year.
Traverse county leads in the in
crease, an estimate by Frank w.
Murphy, farmer and member of the
state fair board, placing it at $50
per cent No county in the state
comes anywhere near this increase.
Beltrami county is recorded as hav-
ing 40 per cent increase in acre
age, Chicago 33 1-3 per cent, Otter
Tail 35 per cent, Lyon 80, Todd,
Swift and Polk 25 per cent and Pipe.
stone 20 per cent.
General Increase In State.
Based on figures received, Mr..
Maxfield estimates that the general
increase over the state will be from
10 to 20 per cent Waseca county
reports a decrease in corn acreage
of 20 per cent; Sherburne county 10
per cent, and Stearns county 10 per
cent.
In 1911 Minnesota produced 74,140,.
900 bushels of corn, valued at $780,.
294,0 900. This was a big crop. If
no setback comes the state this year,
according to the commissioner of
immigration, should produce more
than 100000 bushels.
ut is too early to definitely es-
innate what the yield will be-" Mr..
Maxfield said. 1.-The reports, how
ever, indicate that the stand is
healthy and as well advanced as it
should be. We had a very back
ward spring for corn, but the past
few weeks, with hot weather, has
made it grow very rapidly"

HAIR DRESSING CAUSE LOSS OF HAIR
We Cannot Change the Styles, but
We Can Check Falling Hair

Up to the time we began to civilize
him a bald headed Indian was a thing
unknown, Wearing nothing on his
head except the covering furnished by
nature and being a stranger to the
use of hair brush. especially the
public one, the scalp and hair had
plenty of ventilation. much sunlight
and hence, a condition favorable to
a luxuriant growth of hair existed at
all times.
1t was the adoption of air and light
excluding head gears and artificial
head decorations generally, together
with the occasional use of the communi-
ty hair brush, which gave the dandruff
germ its opportunity. Since this par
asite has multiplied to an alarming
degree until now there is hardly n
person Who is not troubled more or
less with dandruff and falling hair.
Many, to be sure, have passed the
worrying stage. Having become chron-
ically bald they realize that nothing is
capable of producing natural hair for
them. Let these be a warning to all

| There was considerable excitement
during the afternoon and night by the
activity of the members of the two
companies preparing to depart and the
blowing of bugles calling them to the
armory.
The loud and oft-repeated blasts
from a bugle produced by a bugler
who was stationed on the front porch
of the armory, annoyed Judge Wolfe
| of the circuit court. which was in ses-
sion in the building adjoining, and al
so interfered with those interested in
a case on trial, to the extent that the
bugler was brought before the judge
and instructed to station himself at
some other point.
The next time the bugler was heard
from he was in front of the San Carlos
hotel and later he was heard from in
an automobile on South Palafox street
The report first started when a To-
cal young man, who is a sergeant on
the personal staff of Adjutant Gener-
al Foster, received a wire from the
latter telling him to report to Jack

should they be ordered out. Later the
rumor was circulated all over the
streets and the members of the two
companies were soon in uniform and

annoyance of dandruff and falling
hair.
Dandruff, which is due to germ,
and falling hair can both be overcome
by the regular use of Newbro's Her
picide.
This wonderful scalp remedy kills
the vicious germ which causes dan
druff, cleanses the scalp and stops the
hair from coming out. The destruc-
ton of the germ permits the hair to
grow naturally and luxuriantly as ma
ture intends.
Herpicide makes the hair bright,
snappy, light and fluffy.
Newbro's Herpicide in soc and S1.OC
sizes is sold by all dealers who guar
antee 1t to do all that is claimed. II
you are not satisfied your money will
be refunded.
Applications obtained at the better

To the man who has to buy
seed corn, we wish here to make
just two suggestions; The first
is that he should not expect to
get really good seed corn for the
price, or twice the price, of feed
ing corn, Good seed corn cost
money to produce and must be
paid for. The second suggestion
is, that all seed corn be bought
on the ear. There is no other
way for the buyer to know what
heis getting. 1t is an invariable
rule that seed corn on the ear
costs a little more than t h a t
shelled off, and this is simply be-
cause it requires better grade
of corn to pass muster on the ear
than when it is shelled. Assur-
ance of quality in the corn on the
ear more than makes up for the
difference in cost. Of course,
cypress or freight charges will
be a little higher on a bushel of
ear corn than on bushel Of
shelled corn, but this is a small
matter compared to the differ
ence between good seed corn and
