"WHEAT CROP NOT
SO VERY SHY NOW
Relief That It Will Show 21,-
000,000 When Cut; News of
the State's Farms
The bulletin of tho State Depart
ment of Agriculture estimates that
the Pennsylvania wheat crop this
year will amount to 21,000,000 bush
eds, which is a decrease as compared
with the crop of 1916. The condition
of the wheat on June 1 Is given as 86
per cent, of an average on that day
for the last ten years.
About 2 0,000 acres of land sown
to wheat last fall was ploughed down
this spring because stalks were dam
aged, but many farmers allowed the
wheat to stand, figuring that a half
>crop would still yield a good return.
The bulletin also gives 2 2,000 acres
las the increase in acreage sown to
>oats as compared with 1916 and pre
dicts a big increase in the acreage
Wevoted to buckwheat.
Cold weather In May and June
iliave cut down prospects for a big
peach crop, says the bulletin. The
yield, however, is predicted as likely
to be considerably ahead of that of
last year.

"I Feel Better Than
I Have For Years"
Sanpan a Wonderful Liver
and Kidney Remedy
I was all run down, had head
aches, pains in my back and stom
ach. I had no appetite and just felt
miserable, says Mr. William Nash,
935 North St., Lancaster, Pa. I was
constipated, my stomach at times
would get very sore, and what little
food I could eat, did me no good.
My kidneys gave me a lot of trouble.
1 always felt tired and had no am
bition; my eyes felt as though some
thing was pulling them shut. I was
often feverish, and on arising in the
morning my head and throat were
all clogged up. .You can just imagine
the condition I was in and to make
it worse, nothing gave me any relief,
and I took lots of medicine. Finally
1 tried Sanpan, and felt better In
a short time, my head and throat
cleared up, the soreness and distress
left my stomach. I now take pleas
ure in my work, and feel like doing
something. I am not bothered with j
constipation, and feel as if I had
been rebuilt. I certainly feel that I
owe it all to Sanpan. This great
remedy is now being introduced at
Keller's Drug Store, 405 Market
street, where the Sanpan man Is ex
plaining it to the people of Harris
burg. Go in and have a talk with
him. There is only one Sanpan, be
ware of all imitations.—Adv.

RAILROAD
JUNE BUSINESS
WILL BE LARGE
Reports at Chicago Indicate
Record Month; Taxing
Railroads
Chicago. Juno 20. —At no time in
the history of our railways has tha
volume of tonnage moved for June
been as large as this month. It is
taxing the capacity of all lines. Pros
pects are for a continued heavy traf
fic. The movement of troops to and
from concentration camps and of tlielt
supplies, coupled with that of build
ing- materials for the erection of camp
buildings, will give the railroads a
very large tonnage for many months
to come. The new wheat harvest is
at hand, and the grain will soon com
mence to move and absorb all availa
ble cars. There are no Indications of
a real easy car situation.
Every railroad shows large gains
in loadings over last year, the in
crease being fully as great as re
cently exhibited. There is an im
mense movement of coal for this sea
son, which is giving most of the lead
ing roads all they can handle. Mis
cellaneous freight traffic is also un
usually heavy, and far above recent
years. The grain business is good,
and the movement of other classes of
freight is in every way satisfactory.
Crop prospects have improved, and
with beter weather the corn crop is
expected to make more rapid prog
ress, although growth of late has
been slow and cultivation prevented
by too much wet weather. The prom
ise for wheat Is better than a month
ago, owing to favorable filling con
ditions.
Grain receipts at Chicago last week '
increased 5.9 per cent, over the pre
vious week and 54.3 per cent over
last year's, but decreased 11.1 per
cent, from the five-year average.
Flour traffic dropped off 54,000 bar
rels, last week, but increased 21,000
barrels over last year, the aggregate
being 160,000 barrels.
Provision tonnage decreased 5,575,-
000 pounds last week, and was 842,-
000 pounds under last year's. The
aggregate deliveries were 21,829,000
pounds.
Live stock receipts at western pack
ing centers last week aggregated
596,000, a decrease of 45,000 from
the previous week, and of 67,000
from last year. Chicago had 195,700,
a decrease of 21,800 for the week and
41,800 from last year.

DISHES WITHOUT MEAT
■ My LILY HAXWORTH WALLACE
From Pictorial Review Fof July.
WITH the coming of warm
weather, meat becomes dis
tasteful to most of us, -nd
even though we may not desire to
eliminate it altogether from our
dietary, we are more than content to
banish it at least In part. But while
it is true that the system does not re
quire as heavy food In summer as in
the colder weather, it must not be
forgotten that a definite amount of
nutriment is required to keep the
body In good condition, and it is part
of the duly of the housekeeper to so
plan the daily meals as to afford the
members of the family nourishing
and appetizing food without overtax
ing the digestive organs. Here are a
few suggestions for varying the
monotony in our menus:
Carrots and Rice
One dozen young carrots, 2-3 cup
ful rice, butter, bread crumbs, one
cupful white sauce, salt, pepper,
chopped parsley.
Scrape the carrots, cut them into
rather thick slices and boil them un
til tender either in water or stock.
Cook the rice until tender, then drain
it. Season both carrots and rice rath
er highly with salt and pepper. Make
a white sauce and place alternate
layers of rice, sauce, and carrot in a

Kentucky Corn
Two cupfuls corn, one cupful milk,
