Condition of the Crops. No monthly report ever issued by the Department of Agriculture was ever awaited with more interest than that which was given out last week, it had been expected that the condi- tion of corn would show the lowest average in the history of the crop, and expert forecast had placed the percent- age somewhere between 55 and 59, in- dieating a yield between 1,200,000,000 and 1,300,000,000 bushels. The official figures place the condition at 63.4, which is the lowest since September 1, 1881. According to the government statistician, the damage caused by drought throughout August was only 5.7 per cent. and unless September frosts further reduce the yield, the crop will harvest between 1,400,000,000 and 1,500,000,000 This is much better than hoped for a month ago, but will represent a great loss compared with two months ago, when the condition promised the largest crop ever harvested, The extent of damage, however, may be appreciated when it is stated that out of an aggre gate of 41,000,000 acres planted to the surplus-growing states, 15,506,000 acres were abandoned or cut for fodder, Some compensation for the decrease in corn is found in the increase in wheat. The condition of the latter is placed at 83.7, against 85.3 in 1802 There has been considerable improve- ment in all the wheat growing states, and the yield is fully up to expecta- tion. Oats, rye and barley have also improved. The prospects are, taking the amount carried over from the previous year, that the United States will not only have an abundance of wheat and corn for home consumption, but will sup- ply the usual amount needed for ex- port. bushels. sme . The Scheme Didn't Work, The Philipsburg Ledger gives a col- umn up to telling how near the Bitum- inous Record, of that place, came near being turned into a Republican paper, and the editor, Mr. Kinsloe, flopping to the Republican side of the fence, Kinsloe had agreed to turn in for the | Republicans for a certain considera- tion, $200, and conduct a Republican paper, but county chairman William Irvin Shaw would not have it that way, and although the deal had been made between Kinsloe and state chair- man Gilkeson, of Philadelphia, the Clearfield county officials in charge of the Republican camp had the deal jan- nulled and now Kinsloe has a 5000 lot of Republican papers on hand and no place to put them. hl tmmaen Cattle Dying. Cattle on Sugar Valley mountain, | Clinton county, aresaid to be dying | in large numbers. As a single instance John Snook, the mountain farmer, on Saturday had already lost three and were about dying. farmers think their cattle have poisoned by eating wild mercury, a rank plant which has taken a second | growth in ground burnt over by forest fires. head The been more The probability is that the same disease that destroyed so many cattle for Sinking Valley farmers, Ty- work Valley | near at rone, is on Sugar mountain. el teres While Mr. Kaliler, a prominent shoe merchant of Des Moines, Towa, had quite a serious time it. He took such a cold that he eould hardly talk or navi- gate, but the prompt use of Chamber- lain'sCough Remedy cured him of his cold so quickly that others at the hotel who had bad colds followed example and half a dozen persons ordered it from the nearest drug store. They were profuse in their thanks to Mr, Kaliler for telling them how to cure a bad cold so quickly. For sale by Wm. Pealer,! of Spring Mills and 8. M.

Each member of this club must have at least six fingers on ote hand. A report by the secretary shows that there are 2,173 persons in the world with six fingers to each band and 431 with sev- en fingers.

Johnson, of Port Royal, heard some one working at his front door. He went to a window above the door and saw a man leaving the front step. He fired two shots at the misereant who fled in the darkness. On going to the front door he found a skeleton key made of copper wire sticking in the door and a file on the porch. The thief had evidently been hit by one of the bullets, as blood spots were seen on the pavement next morning, EE la Big Damages, According to the Huntingdon coun- ty papers Judge D. L.

Oranges taken at stated times ig the latest remedy for inebrity. Those who profess to know advise the eating of one orange before breakfast, another at 11a. m, 8p, m. and 6 p. m,, with another the last thing before retiring. It is said if this orange diet is persisted in it will cure all but the worst cases. If this healthful, nutritious fruit pos- sesses yet other medicinal virtues aside from being a sovereign remedy for bil- iousness, and is, indeed, a remedy for the liquor habit, the good news should be spread far and wide. None are too poor to test the cure, which, in any event, ean do no .harm.—New York Press, mm————— —p Lewis Treaster Drops Dead. Lewis Treaster, an old soldier of Me- Clure, Snyder county, started for Pitts- burg Sunday morning to attend the G. A. R. encampment as a guest of Lewistown Post 175. When he left home he was well and hearty, and stood the trip first rate. Upon arriv- ing in Pittsburg Sunday evening the post marched to the Grant Street school house and as Treaster reached the landing up stairs he dropped dead upon the floor. He was a member of post 355, and his body was accompa- nied home by a member of the same post. se —— A. M.
