A. Klep- j 1 per, Henry B. Heller. Charles N. i Christen and Wat Wemhoff, was ap-; ' printed to contract with Mr. Means [ and to secure the approval of the ( county commissioners to place the rock in front of the court house. If it is found that the rock cannot be i moved from the bed of the river and conveyed to this city other steps will (be taken by the association. Tentative plans call for an elabor-' | ate dedication of the memorial and; assurance has been given that the 1 event will be attended by hundreds! ; of people from all paits of the state and by authors from the middle-west. I Campaign In Schools. The school teachers, at their annual institute held in this city the first of, j the month, agreed to organize the; school children in the effort to raise several hundred dollars with which tw'build the memorial- Outside conwill also be received and Dr. Roy Archbold was appointed chair- | man of the committee to arrange for this work, he to organize hi 3 com- ( mittee at a later date. I Mrs. Porter, writer- of wonderful hooks on bird-life and nature, always ; had a appeal among the ehil-j dren and her books were studied or i read in the schools. Her fame as an author was nation wide at the time of her death and several of her books 1 arc still among the leading sellers, j A day will be designated on which ! contributions from the school chil-j dren will be received and if suffi-■ cicnt funds are not then obtained.' contributions from individuals will be asked. Several citizens have volun-,. teered to contribute and in one case 1 one leading citizen has agreed to guarantee the cost of moving the rock, if it is found necessary. How-' ever, it is the wish of the association to have everyone in the county participate in the memorial and make it a county memorial to one of Its famed residents. C. S. Niblick was named treasurer, of the memorial fund It is hoped that the memorial can he dedicated late this fall. o | Banks To Close For Two Afternoons This Week I The Decatur banks will close Wednesday and Thursday afternoon on account of the fair. 11l the event that the fair is carried over to Saturday the banks will close on Friday afternoon also. j —o —— ; $ —$ —$ —WANT ADS EARN—s—s—*. s—s—s—WANT ADS EARN —$ —$ —?

CORN CROP IS RECORD BREAKER | Indiana Yield Expected To Re Biggest In Last Twenty-five Years The present condition of Indiana ! corn promises a yield of 421 bushels 1 per acre. Tills is 1.2 bushels higher than 1905, the next highest year in the lust twenty-five seasons. The acreage is also large and so producI tlou is forecast at 205,848,000 bushels or 6,184,000 bushels larger than the log crop of 1912, Though the state as a whole has this excellent prospect, serious damage has been done by drought in the counties near the Ohio River in the western part of the state and in the northwestern district. This deterioration in August has been partly off- : set by excellent development in the central and eastern counties where she condition figure rose several points ! in the area of heaviest acreage. Cutting has begun in the drier sections and though there is some late corn, most oT it will be well matured by the average frost date. The yield of oats seems to be better than expected when threshing began. However, the production figures I forecast are based on the sown acre- [ age and this may require revision j when information on the harvest acreage has been secured. Barley is reported slightly better than last month, though final threshing returns may not bear this out. Comment on threshing shows a great variation in yields. Buckwheat condition is reported lower in the Southeast and higher in the Northeast than was the case a month ago. The net condition for the state is slightly lower, though bet- | ter than last year. ’ Poatoes show little change in the ' state for the mouth. Condition declined slightly in the northwest and southwest districts and improved some in the central and eastern dis- j tricts. Sweet potatoes deteriorated in; i every district during August j Tobacco suffered from (trough in the dark or oue-surker district and 1 , some decline was reported in the I cigar section. Some of the counties ■ growing hurley reported au improved j condition, so that the net loss in the forecast was 549,000 pounds. | The production of hay is likely to i lie larger than expected earlier in [ the season. Clover seed has filled ! very unevenly and much of the acre- [ age will be cut for hay. Alfalfa has, ! lone exceptionally well on the later cuttings. In the southwest and north- • west districts there has been little improvement, but in the central and eastern districts late cut hay will add one-fourth or more to the crop 1 expected earlier. The greater part |of the additional hay is clover, as ‘timothy recovered from the June , d rough more slowly. | The local and showery character of I the rainfall this summer is well reflected by ihe county figures, on the condition of pasture. Tlvs,- rang" - from 10 per cent in Posey county to 1 97 per cent in LaGrange and Jefferson with the high point at 100 in j Mocioc. In general the southwest I and northwest are very poor with the central and eastern counties fair to good. Clover seed has the lowest September Ist condition in ten years and the acreage to be harvested is yet uncertain, tnough it can hardly be large. Cow-peas declined in August as the heavier acreage is in the drough stricken southwest. Soybeans rei mained unchanged, four points above jthc ten-year average. | All fruits are reported us showing a larger promise than last month. , The greatest improvement was shown iby apples. All districts shared in the I improvement, but it was marked only lin the central and eastern sections- I I The reports on the supply and dc- \ mand for f3rm labor show little i change in the relation between them since last month. Both, however, are [reported as a smaller percentage of normal than last month or last year. Inst September the ratio of supply to demand was 102 and now it is 105, indicating an easier situation in the farmers’ labor problem. BARBER SHOPS TO CLOSE AM union barber shops in the city will close at noon on Thursday of this week for the remainder of the day in order that the employes may attend the Northern Indiana fair.
