BEACH GETS THE SCHOOL
DICKINSON WANTED IT

The State High School board of North
Dakota has decided to give an agricul-
tural school to each of the following
places: Darlington, Grafton, LaMoure,
Velva and Beach, this being the correct
distribution of the schools according to
the idea of the board.
Each n of the five schools will re-
ceive from the state of North Dakota
the sum of 81. 500 per year for the
maintenance of the schools. Each of
the towns must provide a suitable room
in which the manual of aericu ltural
training shall be taught. This room
must be on the basement or ground floor
and have a floor space of not less than
1000 square feet and the manual train
ing and domestic economy rooms shall
each have a minimum of at least zoo
square feet and each shall be well
lighted and ventilated.
Dickinson was an applicant for the
agricultural school and should have
had it. This place would have been
central for Western North Dakota and
we already have the manual training
department. Mott was trying to get
the school, but it seems that Beach won
out.

SO that;in nine years time he had de-
yeloped well settled type.
The Palm champion ear was the first
winner of the w. K. Kellogg National
Corn Trophy, a handsome silver and
enamel cup made by Tiffany, of New,
York at cost Of 81, 900. Mr.. Kellogg
as the originator and manufacturer of

In the first place, Palm knows corn.
If there were no more proof of this
fact than the bare story of the develop
ment and discovery of the champion
ear, it would be enough. And in proof
of this fact, here is the story as etold
it himself:
cit was in November. 1910, and we
were just harvesting our crop. The
weather had been good, but we were =
little late with the harvest. The men
were going through the fields with the
wagon in the usual way gathering the
corn. and the harvest was promising
one.
1--WE have sort of corn show at my
farm all the time, and there is always
an award for exceptionally good ears
OF corn ears sufficiently true to type
to permit of their being exhibited.
There is small box on every corn
wagon in which the most perfect ears
are thrown. These, when properly Sc
lected, constitute the seed corn. and
among these more perfect ears we oc-
casionally find an ear that we are will
| ing to exhibit in q contest.
ION, the day the champion ear was
found, I was at the house and at din
ner tlmelone Of the men brought It iu
and laid it, with q number Of Other
ears, upon the window sill in the well
room for me to take and put away N
the seed house.
'Well', said, do you think you've
got q good ear there r

to exhibit the ear, / took it out Of my

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

There is only one way to cure deafness,

Deafness is caused by an infiamed con-

and unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
