GOOD PROSPECT FOR PEACH CROP Fruit Infected Less Than in Several Years. Most of the peach trees in Johnson, Morgan and Brown counties are heavily loaded and prospects are unusually good for an abundant yield, according to Frank N. Wallace; entomologist for the state conservation department, who Is back from a trip Into the three counties. ‘The fruit is cleaner and appears less affected by Insect pests this 'year than in a number of years.” Mr. Wallae says. So far, very lltttle brown rot has shown up and little of the fruit is scarred. He found prospects for an apple crop only fair, and in even the best cared for orchards there has been considerable apple scab. Blotch will soon be coming on, and it is Impossible at this time to determine the extent of loss it will occasion. Peach trees In this locality were bard hit by the, severe cold and freese in the winter of 191S, Mr. Wallace says. In many instances he found the annual wood growth of 1917 was killed and such now appears as a diseased ring which ,is decaying. This greatly weakens the branches ana renders them incapable of supporting the extremely heavy weight attendant to a bumper fruit crop. Farmers in Brown and Morgan counties who find that a thrashing outfit can not reach their wheat fields as soon aa anticipated have heeded a recent warning of tho state department to stack their, wheat to prevent loss from rains, and Mr. Wallace says that on many farms wheat, is stacked awaiting the visit of thrashers. Some remarkable yields are reported, and In Johnson county several stands thrashed forty to forty-two bushels to the acre. a

PUSS IN BOOTS JR.
"Heigh-ho, now for another adventure!” said little Pugs Jnnlor as he walked merrily along the King's Highway. For there are beautiful roads In Mother Goose Land, let me tell you, and happy lltttle people all about. And just then, all of a sudden, the Jolly Miller from the River Dee, who looked upon his pillow and saw a great big flea, came along, and when he saw Puss Junior, he said: "Ha. ha!" little friend! Do we meet again ?” And then he took Puss by the arm and together they went down the road until they came to a stile where the Matden-All-Forlorn In days gone by to stand and cry. But now a days she
"Fit This to the Little Door,” Song the Yellow Bird from the Tree. smiled. For she was as happy as could be, and the reason was because the Man-all-tattered-and-tom had made n lot of money and had married her, and they lived In a pretty house on the bill nearby. And when she saw Puss and the Jolly Miller, she laughed out loud, and said: "Puss in Boots Junior! I'm so glad to see you," and do you know she picked him up and kissed him, although at one time she had cried when the “Man-all-taftered-and-torn” nad kls6ed her, but that, of course, was before he had shaved and made a lot of money. And after that Puss went upon his way, and after a while he came to a thick forest so he left the highway and, trudged along a lltttle path which wound In and cut among the trees, and by and by he grew so tired that he sat down to rest on an old stump. And while he sat there, wondering where next to go. bis sword hit the old stump, and to his surprise a little door ilew open, and ttere, right In plain sight, wag a little blue eg g. And when Puss picked It up it also opened, and there lay inside a bright golden key. “Fit this to Ihe little door," sang a yellow t rd from a treetop near by. S!o Pass did as he was told, and when he hod opened the little door, which was on the Inside of the old stump, he saw a narrow passage, which he followed. But first he drew his sword from the scabbard, for he wasn't going to take any chances of meeting an ugly gnome, T can tell you. Well, pretty soon, not so very far, he came to a large room, where sat a queer little figure dressed In green. "Good day, Blr Cat," said the gnome, for It was one of the little men who live under ground, you know. ‘What can T do for you?"

“I am seeking a fortune," replied Puss ‘Ha, lia!” laughed the little man. "And do you expect to find it for that reason?” And then he laughed again, and the cave shoook and trembled, for he laughed very loud, you see, and then a great big diamond fell from the roof. "Take the precious stone,” said tin dwarf. “Y'ou have found your fortune." And in the next story you shall heat what Puss did with the beautiful diamond.—Copyright, 1920. (To Be Continued.) FRANKLIN HAS BUMPER YIELD Wheat Will Average TwentyFive Bushels an Acre. FRANKLIN, Ind., July 30.—Reports of wheat yields In Johnson and adjoining iconntles indicate that the local farmers have the best wheat crops of any county in the state, while the acreage In this county Is not as large as usual. Some of the yields that have been reported are running as high as forty bushels to the acre, while a thirty-bushel yield Is not uncommon. It Is thought the average yield for .T&hnson county will be near twenty-five bushels per ucre, and the grain Is testing high, with the major portion sixty pounds. The chief difficulty here is the car situation, as the allotment of cars Is not sufficient. Elevators at the north plant of the Farmers Elevator Company here and at Bargersvllle and Trafalgar are filled and can not accept more wheat until additional cars arrive. SHE TAKES IT WITH HEB. CHICAGO, July 30.—Mrs. LeGoslln’s maid hated to leave her Job, so She took all of It she could with her. She has about S9OO worth of her mistress’ clothtng and jewels.
