YARLING  FIRST  FOR
YIELD  IN  STATE
----------
             George J. Yarling, of Marion township produced the highest yield of corn of the 427 farmers who finished the Five Acre Corn Club work in Indiana last year, was announcement made today by officials of the Indiana Five Acre Corn Growers Association.  Mr. Yarling's average of 118.38 bushels an acre on his five acre plot gives him first place in Indiana for yield record, which will be recognized Monday at the annual meeting of the corn growers of Indiana at Lafayette.
          The check on five acre plots entered in the annual contest was completed several months ago and the records compiled at the headquarters of the Indiana Corn Growers Association which sponsor the contest.  Mr. Yarling was conceded from the start to be the leading corn grower in the state for yield and Shelby county looked forward to receiving the honors that are captured by his record.
          In spite of the general unfavorable season for corn this year, 20 growers are eligible for the Indiana Hundred Bushel Club by producing 100 bushels per acre and 99 raised 75.to 85 bushels per acres.  A total of 427 farmers in 54 counties completed their projects and had their yields officially checked by special judges.  Forty-three percent of this number are entitled to the special medals of the Indiana Corn Growers Association, according to an announcement by  K. E. Beeson  of Purdue University and the Association

VARIOUS  CONQUESTS  OF  MEXICO  DESCRIBED
----------
Interesting  Historical  Subject  Discussed  At  Meeting
of  Woman's  Club.
----------
MRS.  ISAAC  CARTER  HOSTESS
----------
Subdivisions of the Subject Were "Toltecs and Aztecs,"
"The Conquest,"  and  "Maximillian and Carlotta."
----------
          The subject under discussion at the Woman's Club, which met with  Mrs. Isaac Carter, Saturday afternoon, was various conquests of Mexico.  The subdivisions were "Toltecs and Aztecs," Mrs. Will A. Yarling;  "The Conquest,"  Mrs. Tatman,  and  "Maximillian and Carlotta," Mrs. Lucas.
          The work was introduced by  Mrs. Frank Bass  reading the forty-seventh Psalm, and the Mexican National Hymn.
          Mrs. Yarling  first described the elevated plain of Mexico, the theater of action of these various conquests.....
          Mrs. Tatman  managed the weighty topic, "The Conquest," with consummate skill.  She based her knowlegeof the subject on statements made by the historians  Prescott, Ridpath and Abbott....
          The pathetic story of  "Maximillian and Carlotta"  was told by  Mrs. Lucas.  She began by telling of the Convention of 1861 in London where various European powers met to redress wrongs done their subjects living in Mexico....
          Mrs. Robert Morris,  the club critic, urged members not to postpone too long study of a subject as signed each, but begin early, read and mentally digest material and devote time to carefully writing and polishing each paper to be read before the club, making it a sample good literature.
