Carl Hansen and wife were over to Elm wood on last Tuesday, where they were doing some trading and incidently were listening to the clos ing game of the world series. They had shelled and delivered their last year's corn to the Wabash elevator, which wa3 shipped out the following day. Home from the Games Messrs. J. C. Browne, I. C. Me Crorey and Herman L. Bornemeier who were over to St. Louis for the three world series ball games played there between the Cardinals and the Detroit Tigers, returned home last Monday, well pleased with the games they had witnessed, but were not ex pecting the result to turn out as it did in the last two games at Detroit, especially the final one on Tuesday in which the Tigers were shut out. John C. Browne says no one can tell how a world series is going until the final out of the final game has definitely settled the matter and it sure looks like John is right. you have a lame, aching: back, with attacks ,of dizziness, burning, scanty or too frequent urination, getting up at r.i:?ht, swollen feet and ankles, rheu- . use Doan's Pills.

Enjoyed Very Fine Meeting The Bible school rally, which was the feature of the three Bible schools the Wabash, Callahan and Evan gelical at Elmwood was a great sue cess. There were representatives from Elmwood at the meet who made ad dresses, but the Wabash school, com prising some twenty-one members and accompanied by Sherman Hai'Jaway, was the one which created the great est interest, although there was also plenty of interest at the Callahan church, where they have a large school and where everybody takes a good deal of interest in the work ot the Bible school. Sherman Ilardaway, of the Wabash school, in a splendid address, told of their work and of the success which is coming to this band of Bible school workers. The rally day was well worth while and was enjoyed by all. Entertained the Ladies Aid Mrs. L. R. Standley was hostess to the Ladies Aid society of the Wabash church and entertained the workers, who are always doing all they can to assist in the paying of the expenses of the church and promoting its in terests.

Western Nebraska potatoes were injured badly by the freeze which also checked the growth or sugar beets. Stocks of grain are a little higher than expected. Hay crops are slightly better than earlier estimates indicated, says the state and federal division of agricultural statistics. The estimate of corn for all pur poses is 25,059,000 bu.. as compared with 234,698.000 bu., last year and the 5-year average of 230,002,000 bu. Outside of a few irrigated spots, corn is almost a failure in the south ern half of the state. A small por tion of the corn in northern Nebras ka may have enough grain to husk September weather was more favor able in that the rainfall was normal or sugntly above. A killing frost during the last week in Septenibe Injured corn for forage. Corn for age yields are extremely light except in parts of northern Nebraska where the yields are fair. The production of all wheat 15,097,000 bushels as compared with 29,200,000 bu. last year. The aver age yield of winter wheat is 7 bush els and the production 14.021,000 bu. The average yield of spring wheat is 4 bushels and the produc tion 1.07C.000 bu. Oats are extremely poor, being al most a failure. Yiel dis estimated at 5 bu. per acre and the production 7.235.000 bu. as compared with 23 373.000 bu. last year and 74,190.000 bu. in 1932. Barley is averaging 5.5 bu. per acre with a productiou of 2,200,000 bu. as compared with 8.390, 000 bu. in 1933 and IS, 360. 000 bu. In 1932. The best barley was produced in the southern Pan handle counties and a little In north eastern and east central Nebraska Elsewhere, the crop was nearly failure. A very large portion of both oats and barley were not harvested Flax and buckwheat are nearly i failure with flax averaging 1 bu and buckwheat 2 bu. per acre. The yield of grain sorghum on the small percentage of the crop harvested for grain will approximate G bu. per acre. The average yield of potatoes is estimated at SO bu. per acre and the production 4.320.000 bu. a3 com pared with S. 625.000 bu. In 1933 The farm crop In southern and most of eastern Nebraska is practically a failure. Potatoes in the Kearney district averaged about 200 bu. per acre. There were some light yields in northeastern Nebraska and in the sandhills. The late commercial crop In western Nebraska which had a fair chance a month ago was severe ly injured by a heavy freeze during the last week of September. The con dition was spotted prior to the freez ing due to varying rainfall. In gen eral, the dry land crop will be ex tremely short except in parts of Sher idan and Kimball counties. The irrl gated potatoes in the North Platte Vnllrv irenerallv rantre from 50 to 100 bu. A few fields having plenty of water are averaging up to COO and even 400 bu. per acre.
