J G McCullolgh,
CouDty Snpt of Education.
The following rules might be
adopted by a club, with such modifications
and additions as may be
fouud necessary:
1. Boys joining clubs andenieiing
contests must be under 10 years
of age.
2. No boy shall contest for a prize
unless he becomes a member of a
club.
3. The members of the clubs must
agree to read the instructions of the
demonstration work.
4. Each boy must plan his own
crop and do his own work.
5. Exhibits must be delivered to
the county superintendent of education
by October 16.
6. The amount of the yield and
the method of measurement must be
certified by each boy and attested by
at least two disinterested witnesses,

7. In awarding prizes the followSSik*1D?
,Jas*8 be U8e(*:
^ Greatest yield per acre, 30?.
Hj^ (b) Best 10-ear exhibit, 15 "
MB (c) Best written account
H showing history of crop
and all expenses, 25"
BHHh (d) Best showing of profit
on investment, * 30"
Experts from agricultural colleges
and departments of agriculture and
M leading farmers should be invited to
M act as judges and also to give talks
M on corn jndging and seed selection.
In estimating profits uniform
prices should be used. For instance:
per acre for rent, 10c per hour for
the work of each boy and 5c per hour
r \ 1
ror eacn norse.
Fairs and Exhibits.
Where there is a county fair the
boys' exhibit should be shown there.
If no fair should be held in a county,
the boys' exhibit should be collected
in the court house or some other public
place easy of access.
A good exhibit by a boys'club may
lead to the establishment of a countyfair.
Exhibits by local clubs at
school houses stimulate the work and
give fine opportunities for general
instruction. Although the clubs may
atart with corn, the development
r naturally leads to exhibits of other
farm and garden crops.
Results.
The object of the boys' deinonstral
tion work is the same as that among
men, namely, better methods of
farming and greater yields. Many of
the boys in the clnbs who begin to
study agriculture in this way will |
[-' ' continue the study in the agricultural
colleges, others will contiuue
i
I such efforts on their farms, and all

the hardest proposition of the kind
that he had ever tackled.

Nervous
Collapse
"I have traveled for thirty
j years continually. I lost a great
i deal of sleep, which together
with constant worry left me in
such a nervous state that finally,
after having two collapses of j
nervous prostration, I was i
obliged to give up traveling altogether.
I doctored continually
but with no relief. Dr. Miles'
Nervine came to my rescue?I
cannot describe the suffering
which this Nervine saved me.
Whenever I am particularly
nervous a few doses relieve me."
A. G. C. LIBBY, Wells, Me.

wrecks. There is nervous pros*

brain, the kidneys, the liver, the
nerve centers are all exhausted. !
There is but one thing to do? !
build up the nervous system by 1
the use of Dr. Miles' Restora- |
tivc Nervine. Its strength- j
