SEED CORN SPECIAL.
The Farmers Should All Visit the
Seed Corn Special Train Mt
Leon Saturday.

The Burlington's seed corn special
train started out Monday morning,
the first stop being at Indianola,
where big crowd was waiting to
hear the experts tell about the seed
corn and see the tests which are
made to determine good seed. 1t is
great thing for the farmers and we
hope there will be many waiting at
the depot in Leon when the train ar
rives here on Saturday evening at
ABS o'clock. The train will re-
main in Leon for forty minutes and
several well known corn experts will
make addresses. This train. is run
for the special benefit of the farmers
of Iowa. There is no cost to the
farmers, the railroads paying the ex-
penses and the only hope of reward
they have is to see the farmers of
Iowa raise a bumper crop this year.
| A great per centage of the seed corn
in the state has been found to be of
very poor quality and Decatur coun-
ty farmers should not lose their
chances of good crop by planting
seed which will not grow. Come to
Leon Saturday and invite your neigh
bors to come with you. You will be
we'll entertained and instructed.

tions in Decatur county as follows:

The Winters Record.

Now that spring is officially here
the record of the past winter will be
worth preserving. There has been
considerable discussion as to how
much snow has fallen during the
winter. The government record at
Les Moines shows that in that city
there has been a total of 70 inches,
but persons who have frequently
travelled between Leon and Des
Moines, including trainmen who
made the trip every day. tell us that
we had considerable more snow in
Decatur county than at Des Moines.
The heaviest snow recorded for any
previous winter at Des Moines was
1913 inches in the winter of 1856.
The past winter also broke the record
Tor consecutive days with the ther-
mometer registering below zero, "a
days, and during the month of jan
uary there were 20 days when the
mercury was below zero. The gov
ernment records at Des Moines have
been kept since 1878, when the local
weather station was established
there.

DR.. B. ID. DeKalb.

Benjamin Drew DeKalb, son Of
Samuel and Susanna DeKalb, was
born in Loudoun county, Virginia,
on the 18th day of July, 1S41. Died
Wednesday, March 20, 1912, being
70 years, months and days old.
He studied medicine and gradual
led from Jefferson Medical College,
Philadelphia, Pa, in the year 1866,
going from there to Sharpsburg,
Maryland, where he practiced with
DR.. A. A. Biggs until 1868. Here
he was married to Margaret A. Smith
on the 18th day of January, 1856,
who with four children, Harvey
Dungleson, at home, Mrs. L. P: Van
Werden, Leon, Iowa, Mrs. E. H.
Sharp, Leon, Iowa, and Mrs. L. J.
Lands, Grand River, Iowa, survive
him.
In the fall of 1868 they came to
Leon, Iowa, and lived in the house
with DR.. and Mrs. Gardner until the
following spring, when they moved
| to the farm, which has been their
home for 43 years.
He followed his profession after
coming here, riding miles and miles
over the prairies and unbroken
country, over rough roads and trails,
| Frequently being called into adtoin-
| ing counties and into Missouri, en-
during the trials and hardships that
came to the pioneer doctor. In 1880.
on account of poor health he gave
up active practice. From then on
he engaged in managing his farm,
in mercantile and banking, until 13
years ago, when he retired from all

ease that caused his illness develop
uous sufferer, yet he bore it all
the summons came.
| He united with the M. E. church,
at Sharpsburg, Md, when rs years
of age. After coming west, being so
far distant he was denied church
privileges, but never lost faith in his
God.
! Funeral services we're conducted
at the home Friday at l o'clock, by
Rev. ]. L. Boyd, of Glidden, Iowa,
formerly pastor of the M. E. church
! in Leon. The remains were then
borne by train to Leon and tenderly,
laid to rest just as the sun was going
down behind the western hills. The
nOral tributes were many and Deau-
tiful.
! DR.. DeKalb was a man of strong
and admirable character. Quiet
and retiring by nature he was never
theless firm in his convictions, per-
sistent in his purposes, steadfast in
! his friendships and faithful to every
trust .es-
| "How sad it all is! One instinc-
lively shudders in imagining the dis;
order and havoc and chaos which
might characterize this sphere of
mortal habitation, if it were not for:
the innate conviction that death can
not possibly end all and that the
curtain which; wells our eyes and re-
fuses us permission to see the NOR
row or beyond the grave is simply
the dividing line between two realms
of existence. r ~

Burlington Train Wrecked.

The evening passenger train from
St. Joe was wrecked at Cosby, Mo-,
ten miles this side of St. Joe last Sat-
urday evening, and ten persons were
painfully injured. The train was to
take a siding at Cosby to allow No.
112 to pass, and just as the train
was passing over the switch in some

rallied the train and the baggage car
and two coaches were turned over
None of the passengers were SER
iously injured owing to the fact that
the train was moving very slowly at
the time. The injured persons were
taken back to St. Joe on No. 112
and cared for, and another train was
made up and run to Charlton three
hours late.
