A church OF make-believes soon begets
a generation Of non-believers. The church

Wood Tells Why Disease is

DANvILBE. Ill. oct. 2S-"There is

day than in our cities" said Or. Thomas
d. Wood OF New York. CHAIRMAN OF the
Committee on Health Problems in Edu-
cation. of the National Education associ-
alton. in an address before the Illinois
state Charities conference here today.
DIR. Wood said he made this assertion
"regretfully but confidently" and declared
that it was sustained by the unpreiudced
study of statistics gathered from many
sources showing that country children at
tending the rural schools were less
healthy and were handicapped by more
physical defects than the children of the
city, including all the children of the
slums." This was true, he said, In gem
eral Of all parts OF the United States
Up to 1910 for one instance which he
cited in proof of his contention, the death
rate In New York City was greater than
in rural districts Of New York state, but
since 1910 the rural has been the greater

Select Seed Corn Early.

Always select seed corn in the field
before frosts and freezes injure it.
Scoop-shovel selection. or even
more careful crib picking next spring
will be especially fatal if frost Injuries
the corn this fall.
When the harvest is on and you be-
gin to gather the crop, you cannot
tell which ears matured early and
would be likely to produce an early
crop that will avoid frost next year.
You are too busy to study seed ears,
anyhow, when trying to put as many
bushels al possible into the crib each
day.
Only in the field is 1t possible to
know whether an ear is large because
it was produced on the only stalk in
the hill and so had more than its
share of sunshine and plant food.
Careful experiment station tests have
shown that the ears which are good
in spite of having been grown on poor
soil and in a somewhat crowded stand
are more productive than those on
highly fertile fields or in thin stands.
Only in the field can you tell
whether the year was too high or too
low on the stalk and whether it stood
so erect that the tt,:l rains would en-
ter the husks and spoil the ear. Ears
that stand almost erect will be ma
terially injured in case of a prolonged
rainy fall even tho no frosts or freezes
should come before the corn is har-
vested. If the corn should be frozen
before the harvesting and when it is
still wet from a cold rain, it is not un-
reasonable to think some of it would
be killed. Ears that have a longer
shank and point down are much bet
ter.
Ear height in important not only
because the lower ears are more con-
venient to harvest, but also because
prolonged experiments have proved
that low ears are generally earlier in
maturing than the high ears. There
fore, select the ears that appear on
the stalk from three to four feet and
unconsciously, but surely, the ear
height and maturity of your corn will
be in1uenced,-J. @. Hackleman, Mis-
souri, College of Agriculture.

Delbert and Manda Markham, was
born February 4th, 1904, died fromin-
juries received while playing ball at
school, September 2sth, 1915, at four
O'Clock A. M, aged IL years, 7 months
and "a days. Little Delbert was of a
kind and loving DISPOSE ton and bore
his sufferings without a murmur. His
body was laid to rest in the Big Greek
cemetery to await the Great Resur-
rection Morn. 1t was hard to give our
dear boy up. But God knows best.
His will, not ours!
Brother, thou vast mild and lovely.
Gentle as the summer breeze,
Pleasant as the air at evening,
When it floats among the trees.
Peaceful be thy silent slumber,
Peaceful in the grave SO low;
Thou no more will join our number,
Thou no more our songs shall know.
Yet again we hope to meet thee,
When the day of life is fled;
Then in heaven with JOY to greet thee
Where no farewell tears are shed!

From Black.

Editor Register am just home
from a visit to my son-in-law in your
country. He lives at the little town
of Glover. I want to tell you about
some of the things on my trip that l
did not like and some things that I did
like. 1 didn't like the lonely stretches
of sand-bars where years ago there
was a pretty fair highway. I did not
like to think of the money that had
been wasted in these river and creek
bottoms for the last forty years and
is still being wasted. There was about
four miles of road between old Camp
Ground and Lesterville thatwas made
over 40 years ago, back from the
river on the hillside, and it is a pretty
good road yet and seldom needs any
work.
Then we came to the river bottoms
again and here we found the same
old thirty years. waste, sand-ba and
bowlder. We got a little rest passing
through Lesterville, and then we ran
into the East Fork bottoms and across
the river with it's neck breaking
powders. On we went, up Mill Creek
road, still in the creek until we were
about out of all patience. At last we
came to the forks of the road and we
found, to our great delight, that the
road we were to travel had left the
creek bottoms and had taken to the
hillsides.
We know nothing more about the
C~enterville and Sabula road and from
what we saw we don't want to
know. We now travel over a part of
the east end of Centerville, Glover
and Ironton State road and this is a
part of what we saw that we did like.
Here we found evidence of much
money being spent, but the road be-
ing made here will sing the praise Of
its makers long, Mr.. Editor, after you
and I have stepped off this stage OF
action. The larger part of this road
belongs to the Glover Special Road
District.
This road has been financed largely
by such men as Senator Buford, Gov
ernor Major, o. L. Munger, j. B.
Daniels and @. w. Scoggins. We un-
derstand that there is about ten miles
Of graded road on the west end Of
this route and it lie being engineered
by +, 7. Hunt and backed up by the
Moss Tie Company, @. O. O'Dell and
others. There is q gap Of about six
miles in the middle that 10 virtually no
road as yet, but l am told that there
are about funds enough TO close up
this gap, despite the fact that there
are men who ought to have their
shoulders to the wheel, or pulling on
the backing strap.
Now, dear, good old REGISTER, thy
pages are sacred to me from the fact

A NoN-PARTIsAN publication is Our
Dumb Animals, one of the most meri-
torious periodicals in the United
States. With pleasure I give place to
the following paragraph printed in
its May issue:
Apparently the majority of the
people who are most disgruntled be-
cause;we have notmade war upon Mex
leo are the representatives of special
interests with vast sums of money in
vested in that unhappy country rent
with civil strife and reaping now the
fruits of generations of injustice and
misrule. Instead of pulling the chest
nuts of these adventurous interests
out of the Mexican fire by war, if this
is one of the functions of govern
ment, it would be economy to pay
them for their losses and then ad-
wise them to take fewer such chances
in the future.

THE total German losses in men
killed and wounded are estimated al
$500 900. Say the allies have suffered
as greatly, and you have a total of
5,OO0,000 human being sacrificed on
the affairs of Mars. And to what
intended end? To check the progress
of democracy and keep ''the lords
anointed" secure on their thrones
that they may continue to rule the
common herd. Mark Twain, in his
''Prince and Pauper," characterized
the people of England of the olden
time as rabbits whom the king and
mobiles with impunity knocked on the
head whenever it suited their pleasure.
How much change have the succeed
ing six hundred years wrought, judg-
ing by present conditions and occur

Billy Woodworth Lands In Seattle
 With Big Story

The Empire today sent two qucr- ies to Seattle, one to its correspond ent and one to The Times, for ln- formation regarding the Assoclat- ed Press article appearing in The Dispatch this morning which intl- mated that Billie Woodworth and Ben Hunt, just arrived in Seattle in Small launch, had reported the death by drowning of one of their party, named Anderson, off Doug las Island.
 Here is one of the replies:
 "They reported Anderson was drowned when the launch swamped off Douglas Island. They have been telling a lot of wild stories about narrow escapes, and about repairing their boat and going on to San Francisco. Friends of the man reported drowned called on the U. s. marshal yesterday to get proof of Andersot,'s death. There certainly is an African in the wood- pile"
 M. S. ''Andy" Anderson, who was with the party on a cruise to Skagway, but who left the launch here, is working in Juneau. He is very much alive.

 These features have have had phenomial runs in all of the larger cities of the United States. and it. only by the rarest chance that the people of Alaska, isolated off as We are. can get the opportunity of seeing them at all. The list of peo- pie starring in these productions include those of international tame such as, Mary Pickford, Hazel Dawn, May Irwin, Sara Benhardt Mrs. Fiske, Robt.
