Governor McNutt was wildly cheered as he phrased the cam paign slogan. "Back on the rocks with Landon and Knox." Although no deaths occurred last year from fireworks, a total of 201' accidents were reported in Indiana. Os this number 14 were eye injuries, including loss of sight to two persons, in celebrating the Fourth, do be careful. Canada might turn evil into good by using the hordes ot caterpillars for silk worms. The infestation of the country from the pests probably is no joke and great damage : will be done to farm lands before the advance of the bugs is stopped. We know the grain dealers and visitors here for the convention will enjoy visiting Indiana's only beet sugar plant, the largest soya bean processing plant in the state and the only federal Homestead site in Hoosierdom. We call these, places to their attention as spots they don't want to miss seeing while visiting in Decatur. Samuel Jackson, able attorney of Fort Wayne and Democratic state leader, proved himself an excellent presiding officer at the state convention. His geniality and good humor, augmented with his clear understanding of parliamentarian rules, made him a favorite and respected officer. His northern Indiana friends and the convention as a whole were proud ot him. The bonus bonds are coming in and the veterans appreciate the lift. The money belongs to them, so why attempt to advise as how to spend it. Some will save part, others will invest, purchase new clothing, home furuishiggs, pay old debts and in general do as they I please with it. Much of it will go : itt, circulation, bringing more prosperity to the country and happi- |

new to those who have funds comi lug. Those who have attended political conventions no doubt wonder wticre all the people come from. The number of automobiles parked at convention grounds is astound ing. Bright, new shiny cars till every available parking space and certainly they can buy or operate them without money. With auto sales reaching another high peak this year, a barometer of better times is provided without argument. Clifford Townsend is no stranger to the people of Adams county. A ■ native ot Grant county, he is a near neighbor to northeastern Indiana residents. Mr. Townsend has visited in Decatur many times. His nomination as the Democratic candidate for governor is also of special interest to Adams county people, since his pre-convention campaign was managed by Dick Heller, of this city. Naturally we are happy over his success and wish to compliment him on the high standard type of campai£h conducted. STRONG STATE TICKET: The militant Democracy of the sovereign state of Indiana is mobilized this year for victory. United and vigorous. Democrats everywhere will support the strong nominee for the governorship —M. CliiTord Townsend of Marion. Mr. Townsend is no stranger to the Hoosier people.

Labor knows him and trusts him, and business feels its interests will be safe in his hands. Mr. Townsend's personality is symbolic of the best in Indiana.

LACK OF RAIN HURTING CROPS Indiana Crops Suffering For Lack Os Sufficient Rain Lafayette, Ind.. June 17—Condition of wheat in Indiana has not changed appreciably during the past month, being but one point lower than last month's index of 68. according to a report recently released by M. M. Justin, head of the department statistics «t Pur due University agricultural experiment station in co-operation with the U. 8. department of agriculture. Indiana had its second successive month of sub-normal rainfall, ranging from one-third ot normal in the south to two-thirds of normal in the northern portions. The benefit to the Hoosier wheat crop of a warm, dry May was minimiz- \ ed by thin stands and Hessian Fly | injury, the report indicated. An average yield of 14.5 bushels of wheat per acre or a total produc-, tion of 24,896,000 bushels was forecasted, which is 3,562,000 bushels below last year’s actual production. The condition of rye in ludiajia last month was considered 76 per cent of normal, as compared with 86 per cent last year. The oats crop was reported to be practical- j j ly in the <eame condition as a year tago, and with a, thin stand, which now exists, and the prseent dry i weather, not much progress has been made. Tame hay has de- | dined less than usual since May 1, but the dry weather generally has been unfavorable. Clover is ! heading short with much white ' top being reported, and a good first cutting of alfalfa is now being harvested. Pastures are reported as being 78 per cent of normal, two points below the ten
