The corn show hold by the Farm ers' Institute will bo worth thousands of dollars to the people of Madison county. It has clearly shown that not enough care and attention Is being giv en to the breeding and selocllon of seed , and that olhor states are taking the load In this Important particular. The export explained very clearly how breeding for improvement Is done and several wido-nwako farmers have said that they shall have $2 per bushel seed corn for sale In n few years as well n * the farmers of surrounding stales and counties. There Is every certain ty that this can bo made n moneymaking - making business. Few realize the Im portance of the loss from poor seed. It takes about fourteen ears to plant an acre and If one of those oars Is bad , ono-fourlconth of that aero la lost. An Incronso of lint one bushel per acre would mean $ r > 0.00 ( ) In the pocKets of the farmers In this county. The corn show was a move In the right direction. It should ho made a feature of the Institute every year. Madison Star-Mall. EDWIN LONEY BUILT THE FIRST HOTEL IN STANTON.

CORBETT AND NELSON WILL BAT TLE TONIGHT. CONTESTANTS WELL MATCHED Prospects for One of the Best Fights Ever Seen on the Coast Almost Alike Regarding Size , Style and Ex ecution , It Is a Tossup. S San Francisco , Cal. , Nov. 29. The sporting element of the Pacific coast is Intensely excited over the tight to night between "Young Corbott" nnd "Battling" Nelson before the Hayes Valley Athletic club. There have been many great pugilistic encounters hold In the Golden Gate city during the last ton years , but few have aroused more public Interest than the battle to bo pulled off tonight. It is the sole topic of conversation on the streets , In restaurants , clubs and homes , and for the nonce everything else of a pub lic nature seems to have been forgot ten. While both fighters hnvo a host of well wishers , it Is n different thing when It comes to betting money. Cor bott remains n 10 to 7 favorite. There are many men who believe that Nel son has a chance to win this bntllo , nnd they nro taking considerable of the money offered nt 10 to 7. It is true thnt Corbetl Is reported to bo In as good condition as ho over was fern n fight , but some sporting men have grave doubts of his ability to go a route on ibis occasion with such a fast fighter as the Dune who conquered Eddie Hnnlon. On the other hand , warm friends of Corbelt just smile at this , nnd simply say they hnvo Iho money to back their man. They are the most confident of the confident ; if Corbett feels as they do he Is likely to enter the ring with just a trifle too much regard for his own nblllty. Whoever Is returned the winner the prospects are for one of the host lights ever seen on the coast. There are no 'better matched pugilists "lu the ring today in point of build nnd strength. In fact , they nro nlmost nllko ns re gards style and execution. Both use a sort of crouch nnd nro i > ossessed of great aggressiveness which calls for constant action In the ring. There is not much to choose between them in punching power. They can knock a man out with either hand , nnd when it comes to gnmcuess it is a toss-up who Is the pluckier. Nelson is practically a newcomer , yet for tlu time ho lias been in the business ho hns done enough to war rant moro than passing consideration. Since Nelson begnn to show his real form ho has put away two dangerous rivals. Eddie Hnnlon nnd Martin Cn- nole. The former fought Corbett n 20- round draw , and Cnnolo nlso met Jim my Brill n like number of rounds. In facing Corbetl , Nelson will have to bo at his host. Corbett Is a fight er to Iho backbone , and does not mind a punch or two as long as ho can get one homo himself. He has had more ring experience than Nelson and this may count him In good stend when they come together tonight. Corbett has demonstrated his nblllty to take all kinds of punishment nnd Nelson will have to get in his best blow to win the decision. Fr < un" their respective training quar ters reports como today thai both lighters are 111 as the' proverbial fiddle - dlo nnd eager for Iho fray. Since the match was made both men hnvo been training faithfully and whoever Is the loser he will not bo able to fall hack- on the old excuse of being In poor con dition Corhett's trainers report thnt ! never before In his ring career hns ho paid moro nltonllon lo getting into condition than ho hns done for his match with Nelson. Nelson hns had the benefit of being under the guid ance of old timers who know every point of the flghllng gnmo nnd from nil accounts ho will enter the ring In Iho pink of condition. The two will weigh in nl 130 pounds at C o'clock to night. Neither one hns experienced any difficulty in making the stipulated weight.

HEALTH AND EDUCATION GOVERN THE WORLD THE WEAK , SICKLY AND EMACIATED CAN HOPE FOR BUT LITTLE SUCCESS. BY DR. ORA CALDWELL , CHICAGO. Ill compiling the statistics of the different races of people of Iho world , It Is of Interest to note the article of diet , the manner in which it Is taken find the extent of medical attendance ns practiced In the civilized world. II has been demonstrated conclusively thai the meat eaters nro the strong- cst , healthiest and the best educated people in the world ; therefore 11 Is ren.sonablo to bcllovo thai they are the people who govern the world. As demonslralcd by Dr. Caldwell , the American people consume on an aver age of six pounds of meal per week ; the English four : the German , three ; the French , two ; and the Italian , one- half. Statistics prove that epidemics of contagions diseases more largely prevail among ihose people , whose dlel partakes of less moat and more fari naceous foods. Good meat Is the most wholesome of all foods to be taken. True , It is not as fattening ns the ce reals or farinaceous foods , but It is more strengthening and contains more blood nnd nerve producing elements , so necessary to strength find good health. What is required spcclnlly for perfect health Is good digestion , plen ty of outdoor exercise nud special care ns to hygiene and all the laws of na ture. Dr. Caldwell Is a specialist of many years' experience , and has de voted , much of her lime to the study of diseases of the stomach , diseases of the brain nnd diseases of the ner vous system. From conclusive proof it has been demonstrated thnt n llttlr * food properly served nnd well digest ed Is far better than a great quantity of nn unwholesome character improp erly digested. 11 r. Caldwell has been afforded spe clnl advantages In studying tlje char acteristics of the people , their diet , their hobbles and the special condi tions governing medicine as a special ty. She has boon awarded , in contests with the greatest schools In the world , the highest prize nnd n number of med als. She has been making a specialty of chronic , nervous and surgical dis eases , diseases of the eye , ear , nose , throat , lungs , diseases of women nnd diseases of long standing chnractor. No mnller how long such pnlienls have suffered or who has treated them , she never failed to cure these ailmenls. In over n quarler of a cen tury in the experiment , study nnd prac tice of her profession in the diseases of men nnd women , she hns cured thousands who have been pronounced helpless by other physicians. People come to her from far and near to re ceive her treatment and her offices arc crowded nt the places of her appoint ments and nil speak in the highest prnlso of her.trentment.
