THU EVENING REPUBLICAN. RENSSELAER, INDIANA,

’ July 9.—Bountiful farm crops this year Were indicated i today in the department of agriculture’s July forecasts based on conditions existing the first of the month. Winter wheat and rye, now being {/harvested, showed the largest pro- ' duction ever attained. Record crops of sweet potatoes, tobacco and rice . also were predicted and the production of spring wheat, corn, oats, barley,' white potatoes and hay is expected to be larger than the average for the five years, 1913-17. Value of the wheat, corn' and oats crops combined amounts j to $8,340,622,000, based on July 1 farm prices. The value of corn is $4,768,475,000; wheat, $2,577,420,000, and oats, $994,727,000. 'Diseases Make Inroads. Flint diseases and other conditions, however, made heavy inroads during June on prospective wheat and oats production. ‘The forecast -shows a loss of 75,000,000 bushels lof wheat -since the June -estimate 'and a reduction of 43 million bushI els in the prospective oats crop. High temperatures caused detoriration in the condition of the winter wheat in some sections, while plant disease increased in central districts. The heat also affected spring wheat in some parts of the belt where black rust has appeared and i somewhat damaged the crop. The area planted to corn, white potatoes, flax and rice is smaller than last year, while the acreage of sweet potatoes and tobacco is increased. Report on Production. Production forecasts of the country’s principal farm crops, estimated on the condition of the crops July ly were- announced as follows: (Figures in millions of bushels.)

THE NEIGHBORHOOD CORNER

A DEPARTMENT OF FARM WELFARE CONDUCTED BY COUN TY AGENT LEAMING. Boy*’ Working Reserve Help* Labor Situation. One hundred and fifty boys and young men have been placed on the farms of Jasper county this season through the Boys’ Working reserve, or about twice as many as were placed during the entire season of 1918 and four times as many as in 1917. While these are days fraught with labor difficulties of all kinds, the great majority of these boys have been entirely satisfactory and have made good and efficient farm hands. Most of them have had farm experience and as. a rule those who have not learn readily. A few of the young men' have come back to the county ever since the working reserve was established in 1917, and have become better farmers each year. The Boys’ Working reserve is serving two very distinct and useful purposes. It is supplying farmers with good help at a reasonable price and it is giving young men practical training in farm life, which will be of value to .them in all the years to come. Corn and Poultry Grower* Hold Meeting. Plans for a bigger and better annual corn and poultry show were discussed by members of the county association at an important .meeting held last Thursday evening at the court house. The general sentiment expressed was that there .is . ample room for a splendid exhibition in this county and the quality of the show is limited only by the amount of energy expended in its development. . A committee was appointed to interview the leading judges of the United States and select the best man available to judge the poultry entries. The president announced that he will donate a silver cup, to be known as the president’s cup, to be awarded in a competition open to beginners only. ' ... i Provisions for the boys and girls

were also made. j This organization has already done much for the improvement of the corn and poultry industries of the county and its members believe that the association is entering upon a period in which it can 'be of still greater service in the development of the community. To Guard Againct Thre«hing Accidents. The Indiana Federation of Farmers’ associations has sent out the following warning to members of the organization, which may well be observed by all farmers of the “The last legislature amended the workmen’s compensation law which now makes the contractor liable for any injury suffered by any one of hiis hired men. Should this contractor be the man who threshes ■ your grain, fills your silo, bales your hay, shreds your fodder, saiws your lumber, lays your tile, or does any kind of work for you by contract, this law requires you to exact from this contractor a certificate from the industrial board showing that such contractor has complied with section 68 of the act. Failing to do this you ‘shall be liable to the same extant as the contractor for compensation, physician’s fees, hospital fees, nurse’s charges, and burial expenses on account of injury or death of any employe of such contractor, due to an accident arising out of and in the course of the performance of the work covered by such contract.’” There are 6,000 threshing machines in Indiana. Many owners of these machines hajve no financial responsibility. About one accident happens to twenty-five machines. That means that there will occur from two hundred to three hundred and fifty accidents this season from this source alone. The farmer should require the contractor to produce a certificate showing that he has complied with the tepns bf the workmen’s compensation law. A Lesson From the Wheat Scab. Now that every wheat grower is justly alarmed over Jbhe “’blight” or wheat scab, it may be well to point out a few facts about the serious disease which may be verified by an hour’s study in any community and which have an important bearing on the control of the disease. The scab is worse where wheat follows corn than where it follows any other crop. The scab is worse where the corn stalks were left, in the field than

LIVER AND KIDNEY ILLS MUST GO If we expect to have health we must keep the liver active. An inactive liver upsets the whole machinery that runs the body. The liver can be sluggish without affecting the kidneys. When these two glands fail to remove the poison from the body every part of the body suffers because the blood becomes impure, the circulation sluggish, and the digestion hindered. This poison within the body causes a languid, tired or adhy feeling. The nerves suffer and we are in a miserable rundown condition. There is no use to let such conditions hang on and wreck the health when a good liver and kidney remedy may be had. Glando Tonic is a remedy prepared especially to tone°up the .liver and kidneys and put them back to a healthy c< edition. People who have suffered for years have found health by using Ginn do Tonic. If you are all run down and can hardly drag give it a trial and you will find it to be just what you need. Mrs- Mary E. Seider, of Seymour, Mo., writes i “I owe my good health to Glando Tonic. lam not bothered with my liver, kidneys heart or dizzy spells since I have used Glando. Everybody says I look so well I tell them that Glando Tonic cured me.” j Thia medicine which cured Mrs. Seider can be secured of druggists or may be obtained by sending to The Gland-Aid Co., Ft.

where they were removed for silage or fodder. . It is worse in lata planted wheat than in early wheat. Fields sown with thoroughly fanned, treated seed are freer from the disease than those sown from seed as taken from the threshing machine. Fields sown with seed treated by the hot water method are free from the disease. Rotation of crops, late September seeding, thorough cleaning and the treating and introduction of the hot water treatment will do much to keep down the infection.
