Washington , Sept. 11. The monthly

average condition of corn on Sept. 1
to have beuu 84.3 , as compared with
80.5 on Aug. 1 , 1902 ; 61.7 on Sept. 7 ,
1901 ; 80,0 at the corrcnpondlng date
in 1900 and a ten-year average of 78.8.
Except In Kansas and South Dakota ,
which rupert a decline of 12 points
and 2 polntu during August , no mate
rial change-of condition Is reported
from any of the principal corn states ,
and they again report condition aver
ages In cxct'HB of their respective aver
ages for thu last ten years. Notwith

August , Kansas reports a condition of
01 , or 25 points above Its ten-year
average , while Nebraska and Missouri
exceed their respective ten-year aver
ages by 35 and 22 polnta respectively ,
and Iowa by 10 points. The crop ,
however , Is BO late that throughout
the entire northern portion of the
belt predictions of inoro than an average -
ago crop are invariably made contin

continuance for some days of the most
favorable conditions of weather.

tlons that thu crop will be very de
ficient In quality.
Of the ten states having 1.000,000
acrea or upward In oats , Iowa alone
reports a condition comparing unfa
vorably w'lth Its ten-year average. Ne
braska reports 86. Its highest since
1897 and 20 points above Its ten-year

TURNS MILITARY COURT DOWN.
President Does Not Approve of FindIngs -
Ings in Case of Captain Ryan.
OUJH. 11. 11 was an
nounced at the war department that
the president had disapproved the
proceedings and findings in the case
of Captain James A. Hyan , Fifteenth

court-martial at Manila , i
There were two specifications under
the charge. The first alleged that
Captain Ryan , while commanding a
detachment of troops at Jlmlnez , Min
danao , having In his charge as a pris
oner , Uvaldo Ablng , prestdente of the
pueblo of Jlmlnez , administered the
water cure to him.
The second specification alleged
that Captain Ryan ill-treated Louis
Gernlno , vice presldente of the pueblo
of Jlmlnez , a prisoner in his charge ,
by holding his head in & bucket of
water.
The record shows that Captain
Ryan pleaded "not guilty" and that
the court finds him "not guilty" on the
first specification , "guilty" of the second
end specification , attaching no crim
inality thereto , and "not guilty" of
the charge. The court , therefore , ac
quitted Captain Ryan.
The record of the proceedings of
the court having been submitted to
the president , he indorsed it simply
as follows : "The proceedings and
findings in the foregoing case of
James A. Ryan , Fifteenth regiment of
cavalry , are. disapproved. "

Volumes have been written concernIng -
Ing the value of the eyes and the un
told misery caused by the loss of sight.
While all this is true and while It is a
greater affliction to be blind than deaf ,
yet the loss of hearing would be an
inestimable misfortune. Let us con
sider for a few moments what we
would miss were we deaf. The voices
of loved ones would be hushed forever
to our ears , the sweet songed birds
would no longer sing for us and there
would be no music in our lives. Thus
we might continue to enumerate in
definitely the pleasures of life which
would not be ours could we not hear.
There are many cases of deafness
which could have been avoided had the
Bufferer received the proper treatment
at the proper time.
A person possessed of all five senses
Is of more use In this world than one
who has only three or four. It. there
fore , behooves n sufferer with some
disease which is slowly bringing on
deafness or blindness to have the best
medical skill attainable in order to
stay the dread calamity , which may
fall before you are aware.
With these facts in mind , Dr. Sey
mour boa spared neither pains nor ex
pense in securing the assistance of an
EXPERT EAR SPECIALIST , who will

This is the time of year when you are disip-
pointoti again in the growth of your cattle for the
summer , either because your own pasture was
too crowded or because you sent them to ft herd
where they were abused and neglected , or because
you put them' in some one else's pasture , and you
find you are losing $5.00 a head in the growth of
your larger cattle. Then why not buy a pasture
and save this , besides getting an investment that
will probably double in value in the next few
years.
1 have three different pastures of a section
each in central and western Pierce County at $10
per acre and les- , two of them with good houses ,
small improvements ; the other with a new four
wire fence , windmill , supply tank and so forth ,
with splendid pasturage. Can buy on your own'

P. S. You will remember that the chances are

DR. SEYMOUR'S WESTERN HOMEi
Many readers who are Interested IB
Dr. Seymour's wonderful success as an
eye specialist will be pleased to know
how he successfully conducts such a
large business , giving personal atten
tion to all his patients , even though
their numbers run into thousands.
Dr. Seymour lived for many years
In Chicago before coming to Nebraska ,
and even though he has returned to
Chicago to live , he has in no wise
neglected his Nebraska patients , as he
has a permanent office and hospital in
Omaha , which is constantly in charge
of his assistant , one of the best quali
fied eye , ear , nose and throat special
ists in the west. The doctor spends
much of his time in Omaha and his
offices in the New York Life building
present a busy scene whenever the
doctor makes appointments with his
patients at that address.
Dr. Seymour can in no wise be
classed as a traveling specialist , as his
regular trips through the state of Ne
b rusk a require only a short period fah
and spring , and are over a well estab
lished route , paying regular visits to
the same patients year after year. In
fact , the doctor has not added a new
town to his list for over five yeara.
These regular trips enable hundreds of
people to visit him who could not af
ford the expense of going to Omaha
for that purpose.
He will be accompanied on his coming - j
ing trip by an EXPERT EAR , NOBS :
AND THROAT SPECIALIST , who will
have direct charge of all medical treat
ments which are supplied from the
Omaha office.
The doctor especially requests that
those wishing to visit him during his
coming trip will drop him a card , room.

time will be very fully occupied , and
by so doing patients can receive speca !
