INDIANA CORN:— Nature has not co-operated well with Indiana farmers to grow the state’s best crop of corn. Dry weather delayed germination and checked early growth and frost damaged the «, young corn considerably, but crop Z experts say that this crop has shown .1 a better recovery from weather • damage than any other. Corn that was replanted will be later than normal but it has a good chance to come to maturity. Fields throughout the central section of the state are •'spotty." One will have corn six inches high and in the next it may be knee high. Practically all of it has been making satisfactory growth since the June rains began. Hot days , and nights always are known as good , corn growing weather if there is suf- ( ficient moisture as there has been for the last ten days. The official esti- , mates on this year's crop will not be , made until July 1. If a farmer cares for periods of meditation there would seem to he no better opportunity than during ; the period of corn cultivation. In the i last week cultivators were to by seen in practically every corn held. Some ~ of them were drawn by three horses | and some by two. but the attitude of , the driver was the same. He slouched down as comfortably as possible on his iron seat, swaying with the I sag of the cultivator and letting the t horses lake their own way except 1 when corners had to be turned. If 1 these long, slow trips across the corn 1 fields do not give time for thinking t nothing does. Indiana does not grow the biggest l crop in the country, but in recent i years it has been growing the best. : The international corn king usually ' cornea from somewhere in Hoosier- i dom and although the annual contest , is some months away, plans for taking pari in it are being made by many farmers. Young Mr. Lux, the junior champion, presented President ' Coolidge with a prize winning ear a few days ago The White House may have received more valua.de gifts but it never had an opportunity to become the repository for a better grade of corn. —Indianapolis News. There are many proofs that advertising in daily newspapers pays and many arguments are M%ard that it does pay. but here is the latest, "Cureo. Texas, recetly had a drought and the farmers' prospects were verv poor. Business men of the town ran page ads in the local paper with this line: 'This advertisement is for rain.’ It rained that night." Since the newspapers are blamed for “making the weather," it stands to reason that they should be* of some good when it comes to a pinch. The north river bank has been cleaned, the grass and weeds cut and the place cleaned up. The old grist mill is being removed and when the foundations and other debris is cleared awiy this stretch of ground will give an inviting appearance. It has been suggested that an effort be made to straighten the turn on the state road at this point and now is the time to investigate this matter. By eliminating this sharp turn, a hazard to motorists can be removed th6 plan is worthy of consideration.

September is one of the months of the year, nature begins to turn into Its golden stage and the fall atmosphere thrills you. Now is the time to plan to attend the big four-day event and to invite your friends to come here and be your guests. It Is noble to die for one's country.! to give every ounce of effort and thej last drop in defense of your flag. But all men cannot die for their country. While you are living, live for your country, your community, your state and home. Live and let live, used to be the way if was put, but the one who wishes to render service now, lives and helps live. There are many things you can do to help your community. D. C. Stephenson, former political power in this state is finding it quite difficult to secure his freedom and is no doubt beginning to realize that the public resents the dastary actions of which he is charged. His trial will be held shortly and in the meantime he'll have to try to make himself comfortable in the "jug’’ at 4 Noblesville. In the distribution of taxes which is now being made, it is shown that l more than sixty per cent, of the money raised through taxes is spent ■on schools and roads, which proves that Adams County is a progressive community. After Chicago gets through with the Shepherd case what will they dig up next? Someone suggested that what Chicago needed was a human killing place, similar to the nationally known stockyards. —o —— ißig Features Oi ? RADIO !
