PENROSE BOOMED FOR PRESIDENCY Senator Given Fine Greeting When He Speaks to Manu facturers in Rhode Island Senator Boies Penrose's sweeping \ictory in his campaign for re-election as United States Senator last year and the strength manifested by his friends in the Republican organization in the primaries throughout Pennsylvania have made him more of a national figure than ever. In Rhode Island on Saturday he was boomed for Presi dent of the United States with consid erable heartiness, although he de clined, as in various counties in this State, to note the acclaim given to him. On the same day in Washing ton it came out that he was being seriously considered by men promi nent in the national councils of the Republican for the chairman ship of the national committee, which will run next year's Presidential cam paign. A dispatch from Providence tells of this greeting for him: "Senator Boies Penrose was boomed for President on a protective tariff platform here Saturday afternoon at a luncheon attended by more than five hundred representatives of the textile industry of New England. There was a demonstration for the Pennsylvania Senator when United States Senator L.lppltt, of Rhode Island, another speaker of prominence in Republican politics and the business activities of this section, praised him as a states man of the McKinley school of pro tection to the country's industries. In his address Senator Penrose attacked the policies o( the Dejnocratic party and urged national preparedness, de claring that there should be a dread naught for each State. He said noth ing regarding the Presidency. "The luncheon was under the direc tion of the South New England Tex tile Association, of which 11. C. Dex ter, Pawtucket. is president. Mr. Dex ter discussed Senator Penrose's serv ice in the Senate, and referred to the fact that as chairman of the Commit tee on Finance he had led the oppo sition to the Underwood tariff bill in the Senate. "The splendid endorsement given Senator Penrose by the people of his State at the election last year places him in line for the Presidency," said Mr. Dexter. "Senator Dippitt referred to Senator Penrose as sound on the tariff.and a statesman whose services the country requires. He also declared that to the Pennsylvania Senator more than to any other man, should be given credit for the defeat of the administration's shipping bill during the last session of Congress. "Senator Penrose, accompanied by a delegation of manufacturers, visited several of the textile plants of Provi dence and Pawtucket. He also visited the State House and other public buildings." ( HARRISBURG TELEGRAPH WHEAT CROP GOES OVER 1914 MARK Interesting Figures Issued on the Production in Pennsylva nia by State Official In spite of unfavorable weather, shortage of harvest hands and the rav ages of the Hessian fly the wheal crop of the Keystone State will run ahead of that of last year which was one of the record-breaking. The crop estimated by L. H. Wible, chief of the Department of Agriculture's bureau of statistics, shows 24.925.000 bushels or 19 bushels to the acre. This estimate is conservative, made from first hand reports received since the last week of September and from districts where threshing has largely been completed. The crop last year was 24,200,000 bushels. The quality of the wheat as well as rye and oats is a little below the aver age condition. This is due to the wet weather that prevailed at harvest time and while much of the grain was standing in the tields. It was feared at that time that the damage would be greater. Less than two per cent, of the 1914 wheat is now in the pro ducers' hands. The price last winter and Spring was too attractive to per mit much wheat being held. The total production of rye is esti mated at 4,6 72,000 bushels or 90.000 bushels less than last year. The pro duction will be 17.2 bushels per acre, the acreage being three per cent, less than in 1914. Oats will far exceed the production of 1914. The estimate of the 1915 yield is 43,095,000 bushels against 31,- 117,000 last year. The average is 39 bushels per acre. The corn crop, how ever, will be less than last year when the yield was 58,520,000 bushels. The yield per acre will be 34.6 bushels. Sixteen per cent, of the crop was cut for ensilage. Storms damaged the corn crop 10 per cent. Buckwheat is estimated at 4,990,000 bushels, an average of IS bushels to the acre. This is a decline from last year. The potato crop was badly affected bv the weather and there will be only 75 per cent, of the average yield, the estimate being 18,042,000 bushels or 66 bushels to the acre. Last year the yield was 106 bushels to the acre. Tobacco acreage is given as 5 per cent, smaller than last year with an estimate for 1915 of 1267 pounds to the acre or a total production of 39,- 910,000 pounds, a decrease of 8,000,- 000 pounds. The fruit yields are given as below normal, apples showing only 75 per cent, of the average crop. Prices of peaches and pears are given as less than lost year. • Owing to heavy rains it is stated that the pasture lands are in splendid condition, which will enable livestock to start the winter in fine state. CELKBRATE ST. LIKES DAY St. Luke's Day, to-day. was cele brated by Bishop Darlington with services in neighboring churches. Yes terday he celebrated holy communion and preached at St. Luke's church, Mechanicsburg. To-day ordination services were held at St. I-.uke"s church, Alt. Joy. The Hev. Lewis Chester Morrison was advanced from the diaconate to the priesthood. The Rev. Dr. Floyd Appleton and other clergy from this city and surrounding towns were present. BUTCHERS MEET ON WEDNESDAY 200 Expected to Attend Con ference in City Council Chamber At least 200 butchers and farmers who sell meats in the five city mar kets. have been invited to a confer ence to be held by the city health au thorities in the city council chamber Wednesday afternoon at 2 o'clock. This meeting has been called to give the meat dealers a chance to obtain all the information about the require ments in the new State meat bygiene law prohibiting dealers from permit ing prospective customers to handle meats for sale, and demanding that the products be kept screened from insects. At the session all of the dealers will be given a chance to ask questions and exchange views on the subject, Dr. J. M. J. Raunick, city health officer, said this morning. Dr. Rannick is no\v considering a plan to have all of the meat dealers in each market house occupy a certain section equipped for that purpose. Permanent plans will be made Wed nesday for the protection of the meat and at that time all of the dealers will be asked to tell how they think the requirements can best be obeyed. Sev eral dealers in the city have already fixed their stands temporarily. Dr. Raunick said that morning that sev eral meat dealers suggested hailing a few supports in front of the stalls and then placing mosquito netting over the stand. This plan Dr. Raunick said would not be satisfactory. He will ad vocate ;• fixed method to be used by all dealers who sell meat, in order to com ply fully with the new act. A PROPOSAL TO INUNDATE THE HOLY LAND Travelers in the Holy Land journey ing northward along the beaten track from Samaria to Nazareth must cross the Plain of Esdraelon. called also the Plain of Jezreel. and almost invariably pass |he ancient site of the city of Jezreel. A little north of the present village (Zer'in) a deep valley slopes downward to the Jordan, and through this valley runs the railroad between Haifa and Damascus. It was once proposed to cut a canal from the Medi terranean to the Jordan Valley, filling up the trough of the Dead Sea and paralleling the Suez Canal by a sec ond route. If such a project were ever carried out the inner or eastern end of the canal would be within a mile or so of Jezreel. The same stream that would have turned Naboth's vineyard into a "gar den of herbs" for Ahab's delight now waters fig orchards and forms a little oasis among the mounds of rubbish which cover the ancient site.—Chris tian Herald.

DIXON Little Indispositions May Lead to Serious Illnesses Warns the Commissioner A day in school when a child is half sick may result in serious illness and indisposition of children should be watched in cder to head off the com municable diseases to which children are liable, says Dr. Samuel G. Dixon, State Commissioner of Health, in bis weekly health talk. He warns that other children are likely to be exposed and that parents should note health conditions when children complain. Dr. Dixon says: "School authorities are naturally anxious to secure regularity of attend ance on the part of the scholars and many parents feel that they are simply doing their duty in forcing children to go to school who complain of not feeling well. It is much better for a child to lose an occasional day's schooling than to risk bringing on an illness and exposing others. "Children's recuperative powers, generally speaking, are superior to those of older people. Proper rest and care will often ward off serious illness, but this requires care and in sight on the part of the parents, as the children themselves are not apt to call attention to their condition until they become seriously ill. "Loss of appetite, feverishness, lassi tude. discoloration of the eyes, are all indications which should be watched at- symptoms of indisposition. "The work which children lose In the schools they can make up far more readily than what they lose In health. Satisfactory mental progress cannot be A NERVINE TONIC In many severe nervous disorders the best remedy is often a tonic. The most active toniff treatment is recom mended by the highest medical au thority to arrest the progress of such diseases. It is impossible to reach the nerves directly with medicine. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are a nervine tonic but they act on the nerves through the blood, enabling the blood to carry to the nerves the elements needed to build them up. Neuralgia, sciatica, sick headache and a number of more severe nervous troubles are properly treated by build ing up the blood with Dr. Williams' Pink Pills and are often entirely cor rected in this way. If you are nervous you can help yourself by refusing to worry, by tak ing proper rest, sleep and vacations, by avoiding excesses and by taking out-of-door exercise. For medicine take Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, the non alcoholic tonic. Sufferers from nervous disorders who have been taking treatment with out benefit should investigate the tonic method. Write to-day to the Dr. Williams' Medicine Co., Schenec tady. N. Y., for the booklet, "Diseases of the Nervous System." It will bo sent free on request.
