JULY 9, 1898.
Weekly Crop Bulletin.
Exceedingly favorable weather for Yiarvest prevailed, warm, dry and much sunshine, until Sunday night, when local rains were very beneficial to corn, voata, potatoes and other growing crops. The wheat harvest progressed uninterruptedly ID the more southern counties the harvest is ended, wheat is in shock and thres'iing has begun in the more northern counties the harvest is less advanced, and, in Allen tmd Porter counties, it has not jet beyun, the yield is ver\ good, both as to quality and quantity the heads are well filled, the grain plump and the straw long in only •a few localities did the fly and rust do injury enough to diminish the yield. good crop of rye is harvested in all portions Haying continued under most favorable weather corditions immense crops of fine quality have been cured and housed the hay seems to be erf a better quality than usual. An excellent crop of clover has been secured, and •the cutting of a superior crop of timothy has begun. Oats are ripening rapidly and turning yellow: in the extreme southern portion the harvest has begun the yield will apparently be better th tn last year the heads are large and well tilled, but the straw is short, and the crop will be difficult to cut in some fields. Corn is in fine growing condition, being of a fresh green color, and it stands well in cultivated and clean fields most of it is "laid by.v Early potatoes yield wel), and they are of superior quality late potatoes grow well, but need ram. Field beans have been planted and are coming up nicely peas promise a heavy crop. Tomatoes promise an abundant yield for canning purpose?. Field vegetables, melons and garden truck are in good condition.
Livestock is thriving on good pastur.age. Hooey bees ars very busy.
For Joint Representative.
"We see in some of the papers over the •district the name of M. E. Clodfelter, of this city, mentioned as a probable candidate for joint representative. The district is composed of the counties of
Montgomery. Boone, Madison and Hamilton. While on the surface the district looks hopelessly republican, yet it is the opinion of many that with a man like Mr. Clodfelter, a speaker and reasoner with more than ordinary ability, a man popular with all the classes .and oni' of the best campaigners in the istate, the democracy might be successful this year. Mr. Clodfelter has signified his willingness to accept the nomination if tendered him and will use every effort tending toward the success of his party. The bit: republican majority holds no terrors fur him. He is a tearless- antagonist and would make an aggressive campaign in his own peculiar style. Mr. Clodfelter should receive this nomination and we bel.eve lie will.

Delicate I Children!
They do not complain of anything in particular. They eat enough, but keep thin and pale. They appear fairly well, but have no strength. You cannot say they are really sick, and so you call them delicate.
Whatcan bedone forthem? Our answer is the same that the best physicians have been giving for a quarter of a century. Give them
scon's Emulsion
of Cod-Liver Oil with Hyport phosphites. It has most rear markable nourishing power.
It gives color to the blood. It brings strength to the muscles. It adds power to the nerves. It means robust health and vigor. Even deli5 cate infants rapidly gain in 5 a flesh if given a small amount three or four times each day. jv

Sending Honey Home.
Governor Mount in receipt of a letter from William K. uodge, of New York, ceiling his attention to a federal law passed in 1861, by the provisions of whicti the governor of every state is entitled to recommend to the President two men frou his state who will act as a committee to work among llie soldiers of his own state with a view to providing for their families at home. The plan is to secure from each man an authorization to torward a certain amount of his pay through a si^ht drait issued by the government to any member of his family who may bo dependent on huu for support. During the civil war the plan was tried and worked with great success, the report sert out from New York being that So,000,Ul0 was sent to that city by means of the plan during the first year of its adoption. Governor Mount has decided to take the matter up for consideration, being favorable impressed with the value of th^ work in this direction. If it is found to be practicable at this time and there is any disposition on the part of other state executives to do likewise he will name twolodianians to go among the soldiers from this state and put the plan intD practic. The offices are not stipendiary ones.
Who is Mrs. Qray?
Undertaker Wiese this afternoon buried at the poor-farm the body of Baby Gray, who was born at the Door of Hope ten days ago and died yesterday. The matrou of the home asked the township trustee to bury the infant. He refused. The reason he gave was that the mother waB an interloper on the charity of this township, she having come from Crawfordsville recently.
Mr. Wiese also made an attempt to get the trustee to bury the child. Failing he buried it himself. He will ask the county commissioners to reimbtirso him.
Trustee Makepeace says "The mother of this child came here from Crawfordsville, where she has relatives. We have had a number of such cases, and it is not the duty of this township to b-ry them. —Indianapolis News.
A Fourth of July Accident.
Tim Davis, a young colored lad living near the Dovetail factory on Beach street, met with a very painful accident on thel'ourth. It was the same old Story—boys and gun powder. Davis, with several other boys, were celebrating the Fourth with caanons and firecrackers when a cup of powder which young Davis was holding in his hand exploded, burning his face and setting his clothes on lire. Fortunately Chas. Ayers, who was standing near by, saw the boys sad plight and running to him smothered the
fiameB
with his coat.
His face and body however, were horribly burned before the fiames were extinguished. Two doctors were called to treat him. but should he recover he will be frightfully scarred the remainder of his days.

C. L. NEWMAN, Dug Spur, Va.
It is said that Yeoman Ellis, who was killed

the battleship Brooklyn, near
Santiago last Sunday, was formerly a resident of Waynetown, his father having taught school there many years ago. This may be taken with a grain or two of salt.
Wsnamaher Is Right.
"In order for us to have good times the people must not only have money, but they mr=st also spend itrfreely. The two things are reciprocal. It is the market that keeps the factories and tke 8tores going and pays the wages." This is what John Wanamaker sakl recently. Mr. Wanamaker is one of the few rich men in this country with a glimmer of economic sense. The average editorial idiot is advising the people to save their money. They must be saving it they certainly are not spending rnuoh of it. Nothing will so quickly breed hard times as an epidemic of economy. There is a circulating medium of but $24 per capita, and probably $15 of this is in the banks or otherwise idle. If the people save the remaining $9, which is not much to save, what becomes of our circulation medium? And yet the people are urged to save their money. You might as well ask a man to save his breath or dam up the circulation of his blood. Under our laughable system of society the spendthrift is a benefactor and the prudent is an enemy to the public welfare.
Same Old Story In Oregon*
"What do we think about the result in Oregon? We think that a Republican state has gone. Republican. That is all there is to it. In the presidential campaign of 1896 Oregon went for Hannaifim by 2,000. This year, with Hanna out of the question, the majority is somewhat increased.—National Democrat.
