NOTICE TO CORN CLUB BOYS. / I have just received notice from Dr. Bradford, state agent of the Boys’ Corn Clubs, that the time for joining the Corn Club will be extended to April 15, and this is to notify ail other boys who may wish to join to please send me your name #md address as soon as possible so that I may send in a full list of all members by that time. All boys who were members of the Club last year, are still regarded as members if they wish to so remain.
