States Divided into Districts In
Competition at st. Paul
Corn Exhibit

Local bankers have received fol
distribution supply of entry blanks
and circulars, containing full details
regarding the First National" Corn
Show to be held in the new Railroad
Building, st. Paul, Mimi, December
LIST to 31st, under the auspices Of the
First National Bank and Northwest
ern Trust Company, of st. Paul and
bankers of the Northwest. Farmers
and farmers sons in the States of
Minnesota, Wisconsin, North and
South Dakota, Montana, Washington.
Oregon and Idaho are invited to COM
pete for the beautiful silver and
"Goldyn Bronze" loving cups offered
as prizes which number 1876 and are
valued at $5,000.00.
The states in this contest haVa
been divided into districts so that
competition among exhibitors is prac-
tically local. The fact that q farm
ers' corn does not appear to him to be
up to the average this season. should
not deter him from competing for
the prizes offered, as all exhibitors
will be handicapped to a more or less
extent in the quality of their corn
owing to weather conditions that have
prevailed this year adverse to the sue
cessful growing and maturing of stan
dard corn.
Ten ears Of any variety of corn
will constitute an exhibit. No entry
fee is charged. All exhibits will be
returned to contestants who request
that this be done at the time Of max
ing entry. A special feature Of this
Corn Show will be the "Boys' Corn
Raising Competition" open to entries
by boy corn growers throughout the
Northwest, eighteen years of age or
under. They will be awarded the same
valuable prizes as are offered to the
adult exhibitor.
Many exhibits have already been
submitted by farmers in various Sec
lions of the contest territory. In Or
der to prepare a large and represen-
tative display for the Northwest, it is
the desire Of the promoters Of this
nroiect to have all corn growers par
ticipate in the contest, sending in a
ten-ear exhibit. Local bankers will
furnish pamphlets giving full details
and form Of entry blank on request.
While entries will be received and
Judged up to and including December |
18th, the management Of the show is |
anxious to have contestants make en-
try at the earliest possible date.

Alex Hamilton, of Goldendale, ar
rived with his band of sheep to feed

Brothers are expected in next week.
Mrs. Grace Beardsley and two child
rem, of Arlington, made visit of sew

P. F. Munsell was looking after
business interests here last week.
j. r. Burns came down from the
wheat country last Thursday on bus
mess. He reports that the seeding
has not been rushed as the ground
was very dry.
H. H. Weston and E. L. Cramer
were here on Friday from Heppner
and Castle Rock, Oregon.
Howard Miller, an old resident, who
moved with his folks to Clarke coun-
ty last spring has returned. When
asked why he came back he said there
is no place he likes as well as Carley
and Whitcomb.
Edwin, Claire, Esther and Melvin
Kennedy, accompanied by M. E. Car
ley, went to Walla Walla Friday to
attend the funeral of their father,
which was held on Sunday.
Geo. Bennette took his turkeys to
market on Thursday of last week.
Carley Brothers sold fine Hol-
stein bull calf to parties in Irrigon
last week.
Harry Williams, the night operator
at Whitcomb, has returned from a
visit in New Orleans.
A. H. Poston has taken the last of
his personal property to Spokane this
week where he says he has rented a
place. The farm here is still vacant,
as he has not found renter or buyer.
We hope the place will soon be oc-
cupied and be kept up in nice shape
as such productive land looks better
in crop than growing up to weeds.
Carley lost one of the best cit
liens we have ever had. On the 18th
of October, Mr.. George w. Kennedy
was taken very ill and had to be taken
to Walla Walla. His condition i'm
proved at times but there was very lit
tie hope of his surviving but very
short time, though he seemed better
and talked of coming home only few
days before he was called. On Thurs
day night he was taken with hem
orhages and dide at nine o'clock.
The funeral was held in Walla Walla,
where he had lived practically all his
life, being born nine miles east of the
.ity 43 years ago. His health failed
about six years ago, and the malady,
cancer, kept growing gradually worse
ill the end. During the month Of
October, 1913, the surgeons operated,
and while there was very little pros
oect for recovery it no doubt pro-
onged his life several months. He

SUCCESS OF SCHOOL ELECTION TOMORROW
 DEPENDS ON VOTERS
They Must Go to the Polls and Endorse S30,000 Bond Issue to Provide Necessary Im- proVementS.

Interest is especially keen in the success of the election to be held to- morrow to provide funds for properly maintaining the public schools of the Warren District Sentiment seems to be overwhelmingly in favor of the S3O,00O issue of bonds. In no other way can the educational demands of the District-the future of her child ren-be secured But it is necessary that every qualified voter take part in endorsing the bond issue. The man or woman who fails to vote tomorrow falls short of doing his or her duty. The School Trustees made the follow ing statement last night
 As your trustees in charge of your schools, we have called an election to be held at the Central School build ing on Saturday, June 18th. 1915. to determine whether the District shall issue $3O.OO0 of its bonds to raise funds with which to make needed im- provements and extensions in your scheel system The more important of these are to veneer the Lowell and Lincoln schools with brick, to build additional schools to serve the popu- lations of Warren, Bakerville, Cochise and Masons Addition. and to provide a proper school building for the col- ored children of the district, which the law requires. Aside from these larg- CT matters, it is also intended Co make numerous needed repairs at the Central school and at Don Luis and South Bisbee
 All of these proposals we regard as vitally necessary. We cannot get the necessary money except through a bond issue If the bond issue fails Co pass, our schools will be badly crippled for next year. In such case it will be impossible to handle the growing school populations in a prop CT way.
 The Warren school was over-crowd- ed last school year Next year it will be worse. Last year we rented an additional building to take care Of the overflow It was not at all satisfac- tory Next year many new pupils will be of school age and ready to enter. The numerous children of 'Bokerville, Cochise and Mason Addition are now without a conveniently located school and must attend at Lowell or War ren. The proposed new school will .hu this need, and at the same time take care Of the Warren situation, pro- vidins an excellent building, convent
