Chnrles Hendy. of this city, at High
land, 111., where in company with her
daughter Lillian she had been visiting
for several weeks. For a number of
months Mrs. Hundy had been in poor

considered critical until loot Saturday
when Lillian wired that the mother was
seriously ill and for the members of the

During her residence part of tho time

every respect a model woman, kind and
generous, a devoted wife and mother,
a sincere christian and one who enjoyed
the full measure of good will and es
teem of every acquaintance.
Tho remains are expected to arrive

The Seed Corn Special.
The seed corn special arrived on time
at 2:30 Friday afternoon and despite
the stormy weather was greeted by
about 200 farmers and business men,
who were anxious to learn what consti
tuted good seed corn. Crowding the
two demonstration care until standing
room was at premium, the nuditors
were given a serios of talks on the sub
ject of seod com and these talks were
supplemented by charts and specimens
of corn in the various stages of gei mi-nation.
The visitof the special here awakened
renewed interest in the desiie to secure
good seed corn, and the purpose of the
train was warmly endorsed.
Tests of corn made by Derryberry &
Forbes and by others show that much
of the corn grown in this section last
year possesses a high per centage of
germinating power, and this seems to
be particularly 'rue of that grown north
of the Nortt Platte river. The ma
jority of the com grown in McPherson
county is said to be good for seed.

Corn is High Pi iced.
Farmers who are feeding cattle and
hogs are inclined to "growl" more or
less over the high price of corn, espec
ially as the present 'market p$ce of
both cattle and hogs is not in keeping
with the price of corn. A. W. Arnett,
of Hinman precinct, who is feeding
about 100 hogs, tells ns that he is paj
ing Seventy cents for corn and hauling
it himself. John TolIBoo, of Nichols,
shipped in a car from the east port of
the state la-t week thpt cost him sev
enty cents ,on the track at Nichols.
Sevcnty-eent corn should mean sven
cento per pound for hogs, if the feeder
is to get a profitable return for his
feeding, but the present price is below
six centt .
