Care In Preparing Food.
In recent years scientists have
proved that the value of food is meas-* .
ured largely by its purity; the re- |
suit is the most stringent pure food
laws that have ever been known.
One food that lias stood out promi
nently as a perfectly clean and pure
food and which was as pure before
the enactment of these laws as it
could possibly be is Quaker Oats;
conceded by the experts to be the ideal
food for making strength of muscle j
and brain. The best and cheapest of
ail foods. The Quaker Oats Company
is the only manufacturer 'of oatmeal
that has satisfactorily solved the prob
lem of removing the husks and black
specks which are so annoying when
other brands are eaten. If you are
I convenient to the store buy the reg
ular size packages; if not near the
store, buy the large size family pack

Prizes for Corn From Dry Farms.
That the leading grain buyers of
the country are Interested in grow
ing corn by the dry farming method,
in regions not usually considered with
in the “corn belt” is shown by the
offer of H.C.Hargrove of UesMoines,
Iowa, to give a $400 silo and ensilage
cutter outfit to the farmer exhibiting
the best ten ears of corn produced by
the dry farming method and exhibited
at the National Corn Exposition in |
Omaha, December C to 18.
This is the first big prize ever of
fered for dry farmed corn at the
exposition and is larger in proportion
than any other* prize offered for ten
ears of corn except In the sweep
stake classes. In addition to re
ceiving this prize the winner will also
compete for the $1,000 ten ear
trophy.
The contest is open to everyone.
There are no conditions which would
make Ij hard for any farmer to win
.the $400 prize. Further information
will be supplied by Mr. Hargrove,
whose address is 309 East Walnut St.
DesMoines, or the National Corn Ex
position at Omaha.
Besides having an opportunity to
win the prize, the farmers exhibiting
corn grown by the dry farming meth
od at Omaha, have an opportunity to
bring before at least 100,000 farmers
the possibilities of dry fanning sec
tions—it is an excellent chance to
advertise the dry farming country.
Returned From Germany.
Fred Bahr returned Monday from
a two months' trip to his old home
in Germany. This is iris first trip
to the old country since he came to
the States as a boy. Needless to
say there was as much change in
looks and customs of the old country
to Mr. Balir as there was in him to
his relatives. He had a fine trip
and says he would not have missed
it for the world.

Falls City. Sept. 10, 1909.
Dear Friend:—
Chipped Beef is nice to buy, Mama
says, because there is no bone in it.
Last night mama was real tired,
and didn't feel like building a big
fire. She sent me to the grocery for
a can of chipped beef, and when I
got back she had some bread and
butter and sweet milk on the table,
and we had a real nice supper, and
it didn't cost very much.
Your friend,
JACOB.
