The crops look a little better and a few more rains would make every one feel better. There is still a chance for a fair crop. Hogs are over five cents and will perhaps go considerably higher, which will help if a feller has any to put mi the market or any thing to feed them. Some one tells the story that during the recent hot spell a dog was seen chasing a cat around the block hut it was so warm that both were walking and we can't blame either of the participants. We would like to know whether there ace more prisoners escaping from Michigan City than usual or whethef.they are just making morel fUS* about it. Looks like some of i it could be stopped and without miii-li extra expenditure. Seventeen days with the temperature over a hundred has been enough even for those who boast it never gets too warm for them. All previous records have been broken and it will be satisfactory with ab<J|it every one if the heat stays unffbr the ninety mark. Farm receipts show a decided increase over last year, according to statistical figures from Washingtorr and there is not much doubt ahemt it. However we may feel thee drought next year and while prices will probably be higher, the volutnn won't he there. The bridges on road 27 between here and Fort Wayne are to all be repaired or rebuilt to conform with the twenty foot highways and improving this much traveled -thoroughfare. The contract has been awarded and the work will -proreed immediately.

and hog allotment money In a number of Indiana counties, sll,000 having been distributed in the state last week. The work will go forward rap’dly now that the intricate checking has been disposed of in most places and the farmers will soon have the actual money in their hands. There is still a good chance for an average beet crop, according to J. Ward Calland, local manager. Though some three thousand acres were burned out by the drouth, there are still something like ten thousand acres to produce a crop equal or better than last year. That will help a lot and gives us all something to hope for, Jim Watson, famous for his remarks during the World War when he said all we could do would be to go down to the ocean and make faces at Europe, who predicted that prosperity would arrive thirty days after his tariff law passed, now predicts a Republican victory in November. He wouldn't bet a lead nickel on it however. They are actually killing people over in Europe. No one seems to know just why but they have reached the stage where they don’t care what happens and feel they might as well fight it out. |How much better it would be if they settled down to sensible ways of adjusting matters and devoted their time to making it better for the other fellow to live. The Scouts are going to have their permanent cabin in the Hanna-Nutt mar. city park, a fine place for it and a wonderful thing for every youngster who belongs to the Scout organization.

PARENTAL AID POINTS YOUTH IN RIGHT PATH Illinois Research Worker Reveals Facts on Child Government Chicago, (U.R) — When Johnny wants a saxaphnne get him one. Let the blue notes waft unrestrained because Mrs. Elizabeth Burford child psychiatrist, believes that after all a saxaphone is better than a revolver. Mary, the daughter, perhaps she wants a little more love and understanding. Let her boy friends call at home. If you don't she probably will sneak into a public dance hall, or some night club, Mrs. Burford said. Experience gathered from the thousands of cases handled has taught Mrs. Burford that the boy or girl whose aspirations are met with parental opposition sometimes grows into'a law breaker. Juvenile Researcher She is an attache of the Illinois Juvenile Research Department and stationed in the University of Chicago area. A complete understanding between children and parents is a fundamental necessity if a child is to grow up to be a good citizen. True to Form Often times the unwanted babj

Texas (U.R) — His love for a railway train kept Dick Whitworth, one Os the Texas League's leading pitchers, from an attempt at a career in major leagues. Whitworth, now 40 and still a top-notch pitcher, once was drafted by the Chicago White Sox. He was returned to the Texas League in a few days when he told the Sox he did not care to give up his job as a railway brakeman to play big-league ball. That was ten years ago. Whitworth still retains his position as a railway brakeman at his home in Austin, Tex. Every 90 days he returns to Austin, makes a run on the railway, and obtains another 90-day leave-of-absence to play baseball. In the winter he works steady as a brakeman.

INSECTS RAID STATE'S CROPS Lansing (U.R) — Insects infesting Michigan crops have lost all sense of “politeness.” At least that is the conclusion of Michigan State College entomologists, who claim the bugs this year arrived considerably ahead of . schedule and are hanging around long after they should be satisfied with the damage done. Beetles, moths, flies, bugs and many other kinds of insects have combined in all stages of develop- • ment to make 1934 a “pest'’ year of record in the state's farming history, a survey by the college entomologists shows. These insects have launched a concentrated attack on everything planted. At this time scientist! point out, the cut worm continues to cut down plants weeks after the cut worm's usual season of destruction. The army worm is likewise a parasite without any sense of propriety," insist the specialists. This worm usually multiplies in crops on low areas and then marches to other fields as the original food supply becomes ex- ! hausted. n i Idaho Falls, Idaho — (UP) — ' Eastern Idaho is unique. It has ' no drought problems, according to Water Master Lynn Crandall who ’ recently completed a survey of the territory.
