Y. M. c. A. NOTES.
Agricultural Fair at Ithaca, Saturday
November %.

The first annual exhibit of farm
products was held in the old bank
building in Ithaca last Saturday. The
reports of the boys who raised corn
and beets were examined and after
the judging of the corn and beets
the prizes were awarded.
In spite, of the deep mud which
prevented large number from show
ing, there were about one hundred
and ten exhibits. The corn show,
with twenty-eight entries, was the
most attractive but the lusty Growing
of bantams and the larger varieties
of chickens compelled attention.
Prof Grover of the Michigan Agri-
cultural college and w. A. Wood an
M. A. c. graduate, who has charge OF
the agricultural department OF the
St. Louis high school, acted as Judges
OF the farm crops. Supt J. d. Larue
of the Ithaca schools, and Rev. J. 9.
Durfey of Ithaca, were Judges OF
the essays, and Frank Brooks judged
the poultry. All the reports were
examined with great care.
Owing to the fact that few re-
ports and essays are not in, only
the highest winners can be announced
at this time. In justice to the boys,
it should be stated that nearly every
plat of ground was measured by a
disinterested person and the results
are believed to be accurate. The re-
Il farr htchact IN haatc
given below Points were given as
follows: Largest amount of sugar,
40 points; largest tonnage, 20; dozen
best beets, 20; best essay of 800
words, 20. Plats were one-half acre.
Carlos Allen of Middleton, winner
of first prize, scored as follows: Es-
say, 1875; beets, Is; tonnage, 20;
sugar, 40. Glenn Colthorp, second,
scored on essay, IS; beets, 13; ton
mage, 16; and sugar, 80. Ezra Deve-
reau of Ithaca scored total of "a
points, and Virgil Reynolds of Mid
dleton scored "a points.
The prize acre OF corn produced
one hundred and thirty-four bushels
by weight measure 1t was grown
by Omar Spidel of Ithaca, and his
brother Glenn was second with one
hundred and twenty-nine bushels.
Scoring was on the basis of essay,
ten best ears, number of bushels, and
profit Omar Spidel scored "a points,
Glenn Spidel Sc, Duane Snider of
Pompeii 70, Nelson Roberts of Ithaca
rs. Floyd Warner of Carson City SO.
The winners of the first places in
each contest take trip to Chicago,
which costs the association about
twenty dollars each. The other
prizes are of proportionate value.
In the contest for the school globe
offered by Henry Mccormack, the
Wheeler school of Newark township
won by a good margin. The globe
will be taken to the school and pre-
sented in an appropriate manner.

What could furnish stronger evi-
dence of the efficiency of any remedy
than the test of time? Thousands OF
people testify that Doan's Kidney
Pills have brought lasting results.
Home endorsement should prove
undoubtedly the merit of this RENE
dy. Years ago your friends and
neighbors testified to the relief they
had derived from the use of Doan's
Kidney Pills. They now confirm
their testimonials. They say time
has completed the test.
Mrs. Joseph F. Sartors, 2O1 Lin
coin avenue, Alma, Mich, says: "The
first symptom of kidney trouble that
/ had, was pain in my back. Then
had headaches and dizzy spells. The
kidney action was irregular and gave
me lot of annoyance. Nothing did
me any good until l got Doan's Kid
ney Pills at Rhodes Drug Store.
They completely relieved the all
ments. The kidneys got normal and
the pains left. That happened two
years ago and gave q testimonial.
Since then I have used Doan's Kid
ney Pills of and on and they have
kept my kidneys in good shape. They
act as tonic to my system"

SCHOOL INFLUENCE
IN THIS COUNTRY
FRANCE IMPRESSED BY EDUcA.
TIoNAL METHODS IN THE
UNITED STATES.

PARIS, Dec. 13.-Emile Boutroux,
the French academician, was particu-
larly impressed during his recent trip
in the United States by the tremen-
dous faith in the power of education
which he everywhere encountered. In
this connection he says:
Nowhere else in the world is more
faith placed in the power of instruc-
ton and moral education, to increase
the capacity, the wisdom and the
moral qualities of man."
q was greatly touched he con.
tinues, by the attention paid me by
American students and by their con
fiding amiability, and it was not diff
cult for me to believe their masters
when l was told of the spirit of duty
and morality which prevailed amonl
them. The prayers with which thu
universities are opened each morning
are not merely vain Formally. Re
ligion in America is above all a ques
ton of mental seriousness.
