The cornborer, with his wife; children, nephews, nieces, uncles, aunts, and cousins, has now taken up residence in Illinois. This corn borer is a serious menace like the boll weevil they just "set 'round" and let it come "ahaid!" In one of the books of the Bible some prophet used to eternally be shouting "The Kingdom of Heaven Is at Hand" of course he was some off on his dates, but the persistency of enthusiasm of that is needed today to wake men out of their lethargy. Well, if the corn borer arrives in Nebraska, and put: his cold clammy death grip on our great corn fields, what are we going to do about it? r1 B argain W ednesday SPECIALS!- Cotton Blankets at a Bargain 6Cx74 in. double size bed blankete, Wednesday. .$1.0S 64x80 in. double blankets, pair 1.48 6Sx76 in. double blankets, pair 1.98 72x20 in. heme made comforts, each 2.98 Exceptionally Grocery Values Large pkgs.
