George 0. Stembel, the Wbeatfleld business man, who is also regarded as one of the beet managing farmers in the county, sent to The Republican office last week three ears of corn raised on his farm lust north of Wbeatfleld, Two of the ears are whit# and mighty good ears. The third Is a yellow ear, with the best tft> we have ever seen on an ear of corn, being rounded with grain en~ ti/ely over the end of the cob. The rows are quite uniform and the ear would attract favorable attention in any corn show. Unfortunately there are about a half dosen light colored grains in ttrt ear. doe'probably to its proximaty, to white oorfi while grow? t ing. These grains would probably bar It from consideration ip a corn show, but does not detract from Its beauty. Many who hare examined it isl The Republican window prondunce ir the finest individual ear of corn they ever sgw. We shall be pleased to have others bring in choice ears for exhibition. The effect la beneficial and instructive in corn cultivation You can’t delay much longer buying your winter coat, and you <|g buy be sure to go to a house with a reputation.
