Foot and Mouth Conditions Have Improved and Will Arrange For Farmers' School.

Lafayette, Ind., December 12, 191 After due consideration it has been decided to hold the annual farmers' short course at Purdue University on January 11-15. It had practically been decided to abandon the idea this year on account of the foot and mouth disease. Conditions have improved to such an extent that the faculty have decided to arrange for the farmers' school as usual.

The week will be full of conventions, lectures and instructional work, giving the farmers over the state an excellent opportunity to become better acquainted with the methods now in use in present day agriculture. It will bring together hundreds of farmers and their wives from all parts of the state, and besides the meetings, an attractive program has been arranged to include work in all the various branches of agriculture and home economics.

One of the most important meetings of the week will be the session of the Indiana Corn Growers' Association. Plans for the coming year will be discussed and the work of the present year reviewed/ The success of the five-acre corn growing contest held in twelve counties of the state this year is due to the efficient management of the officers of the association. The association is giving a medal to every man that grew over one hundred bushels to the acre on five acres or more.

The meetings of the Indiana Dairy Association, Indiana Live Stock Breeders' Association, Indiana Poultry Association and the Federation of Agricultural Associations will also be held during the week, offering an opportunity for every fanner to get in touch with the organizedwork of the state.

One of the greatest features of the week will be the animal corn show, held in connection with the Corn Growers' Association. Entries will be made from all parts of the state in ten acre lots. Indiana has long been known as the producer of prize corn and lias repeatedly taken

National Corn Exposition. Programs for this great educational event can be had by addressing Purdue University, Lafayette, Indiana.

COLDEST /DECEMBER WEATHER IN YEARS

CEMBER 15TH.

*,"V

Winter seems to be here with both feet, in deadly earnest and we are now experiencing the coldest weather we have had in December for many years. In fact, it was older Tuesday -morning than it usually gets any time during the winter. Thermometers over the city registered from seven to ten degrees below zero at an early hour, which was colder than it became any time last winter, it is said. After the balmy weather of a few days ago, the zero weather seems right smart of a hardship to some, but one weather prophet advises us to cheer up, as we are going to have still colder before the winter is over, notwithstanding the fact that all signs pointed to an unusually mild winter.

Anderson Police Chief Believes In Prevention As First Means.

According to Chief of Police Mountain, from 1,000 to 1,100 vagrants have been escorted out of the city by the local police since the first of January. The chief believes that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure, relative to taking care of burglaries. It is his belief that the safest way to prevent robbers pilfering the people of the city is to rid the town of strangers and suspicious looking individuals-. Several months ago he asked the patrolmen to question every person on the streets after midnight.

As a result of the vigilance of the patrolmen, hundreds of loiterers who- could not explain their presence on the streets at a late hour have been sent from the city before they had an opportunity to enter the homes or business places of the city and commit burglaries. At times twenty and thirty men have been sent out of the city on freight trains in a single night by the police—Anderson Bulletin.

THIS IS CERTAIN

The Proof That Greenfield Readers Cannot Deny.

What could furnish stronger evidence of the efficiency of any remedy than the test of time. Thousands of people testify that Doan's Kidney Pills have brought lasting, results.

Grateful endorsements should! prove undoubtedly the merits of this remedy. Years ago people right in this locality testified to the relief! ad iv Doan's Kidney Pills. They now con-1 firm their testimonials. They say that time has completed the test.

Ira W. Armstrong, S. Madison street., Knightstown, Ind., saysw "I was annoyed by a dull, nagging pain in my back and hips. The passages of the kidney secretions were irregular and caused me no end of annoyance. Hearing about Doan's Kidney Pills, I got a box and soon after I began using them. I found them to be just the remedy I needed. One box of Doan's Kidney Pills cured the attack and during the past few years whenever I have taken this remedy, it has benefitted me. Others of my family have also used Doan's Kidney Pills with the be^jt of results. You .may continue publishing my former endorsement."
