Not Bad Cook But Bad Stomach.

The word dyspepsia means literally bad
cook, but it will not be fair for many
people to lay the blame on the cook il
they begin the Christmas Dinner with
little appetite and end it with distress or
nausea.
1t may not be fair for any to do that
let US hope so for the sake of the cook!
The disease, dyspepsia, indicates bad
stomach, that is weak stomach, rather
than bad cook. and for weak stomach
we know of nothing else equal to Hoods
Sarsaparilla. This digestive and tonic
medicine helps the stomach, gives it
viGor and tone, relieves dyspepsia, Gre

MIR. LANGILL's STATEMENT

To the Editor of the Ledger:
In the issue of your paper of
Tuesday, July 18th, certain state
ments We're contained in an article
pertaining to myself in regard to
Levi NJ. Langill, deceased, which
were entirely false and untrue and
which the court itself, in the de-
cision rendered, found had not
been sustained by the evidence.
All Of the statements contained
in your report of the proceedings
were taken from the cross petit
ton, and the court found all of
these allegations to be either I'M
true or unsustained by the evil
dence, and the sole ground of the
courts decision was that on ac-
count of the fact that | had not
filed report as guardian of my
Step-mother'S estate for a period
of six weeks, although during all
of that time, with the exception
of four days, either my attorney
or myself We're absent from the
state of Washington, that the
court would not appoint me as
administrator of my fathers es-
tate.
The record made in open court
shows these to be the facts.
Yours very respectfully,
E. Z. Langill.

High Rank Is Gained In Spite Of
the Short Season.

Minnesota is climbing as a corn
state. Ten years ago it's corn acreage
was 100000 and its yield not quite So,
100000 bushels. Last year its corn
acreage was 100000 and it's yield
118,000,00O bushels. It's acreage has
grown about rs per cent in ten years
and its yield little more than 100 per
cent. In point of total yield Mime
sofa ranks seventh among the corn
states of the country. In point of yield
per acre it ranks fifth.
Corn-Growers Handicapped.
Minnesota has climbed to this posi-
ton as corn state in spite Of seri-
GUS handicap-the shortness of the
season.
This handicap imposes the need of
special care on the Minnesota corn
grower For seed he must get corn that
has matured before Sept. 20, because
the Minnesota corn area has a kill
ing frost not later than that date and
seed corn which has matured before
that time of year will usually produce
corn which will mature before that

seed corn early, also, so that he may
have time to dry it thoroughly before
freezing weather comes. If it is not
dry before frozen it is sure to be in.
jured.
Four Things To Do.
The Agricultural Extension Division
OF the University, therefore, is urging
on the farmers of Minnesota four
things:
The selection Of seed corn dur.
Ing Seed Corn Time, September
1920.
The selection Of seed corn from
field Of corn adapted to the To-
eality.
The storing Of this seed corn in
a dry we'll ventilated place where
It will dry quickly and stay dry.
The selection Of so ears Of corn
for each acre to be planted the fol-
lowing year, In order to provide for
reselection in the spring.
A. D. Wilson, extension director of
the University Department of Agri-
culture, is urging these points on all
the farmers in Minnesota in a letter
