CROP OUTLOOK.
Lack of Moisture Thwarts Frospeots for
Good Crops,
In March and April the prospect
for a decidedly good erop of wheat was
never better in Penns and Brush Val-
leys. The light precipitations of April
and May, which summed, up 3.85 and
1.10 inches, respectively, for the
months named, materially reduced
the prospects for the immense crop
reasonably expected. In these Valleys
there are today many poor flelds of
wheat ; that is especially true in Penns
Valley where the rain fall for the last
half of May was considerable under
that of the neighboring valley.
Grass is suffering greatly, and while
there is a good stand of young grass,
rain in abundance must come soon to
wake a crop.
Oats and barley are a very poorstand;
much of the grain on heavy land is
unable to come up. With favorable
weather, however, this crop may
bring some surprises at harvest time.
The early planted corn is in good
condition. That planted late and on
heavy land lies dormant. A singular
condition exists with some farmers :
No plowing has been done for this
crop. The spring was early so far as
the growth of vegetation was concern-
ed, but the soil was not in a condition
to turn. When the soil permitted cul-
tivation, many farmers devoted their
entire time to the preparation of oats
and barley ground. When that was
done, the sod fields had so thorough-
ly dried out that plowing was an im-
possibility. Buch a condition is ex-
ceptional.
There is time for a corn crop to ma-
ture after the first week in June, which
makes any prediction unsafe.

without a cent of cost to any other
person. With each purchase of ten
cents a numbered coupon was given
on which was written the name of
the purchaser. These coupons were
then placed in a box, and Miss Nellie
Smith, daughter of J. Frank Smith,
was blindfolded and drew out twelve
coupons, the last being the winner.
The lucky twelfth coupon was that
of Miss Virgie Durst, who modestly
accepted the prize. The cash value of
the pigs was $5.00,

Rabber Tires Protect Life,
Rev. J. M. Waddell, pastor of the
Presbyterian church, his wile and
twin babes, of Clearfield, were out
driving Wednesday of last week and
stopped under a tree on a hill pear
that town because of a threatened
storm.
Not a drop of rain was falling when
a loud report something like a boiler
explosion filled the sir. A flash ap-
peared in the tree which proved to be
a bolt of lightning. It passed down
the tree to a low limb and then struck
the horse, killing it instantly.
Mr. Waddell, who will be remuember-
ed by the residents in this place on
account of the part he took in the dis-
cussions while attending Presbytery
here last fall, attributes the escape of
himself and family to the fact that the
wheels of the carriage in which they
sat had rubber tires,

lay there while the young lady ascend-
ed and descended the stalrs, says the
Journal, When the reptile was killed
Miss Breon measured it and found its
length to be over three feet.
