State Crop Report Another week of intense heat with showers in only a few reitrio.cd localities has caused considerable damage to all growing crops. Practically ail corn is tasseled. Firing is general on sandy soils in the southern counties and all fields are suffering for rain. Winter wheat yields have been very disappointing in all parts of the State: ranging from three to thirty bushels. The whole crop will hardly make an average grade of No. 3. Many fields of spring wheat have been abandoned. Oats cutting Is completed. Yield has been materially reduced by extremely hot weather and quality is poor us a general rule. Barley si.me as oats. Rye yields did not come up to expectations. Quality poor and many fields abandoned. In some localities late potatoes did not sprout because of dry soil conditions. Other tjruck erops also have been ma terially injured by the drought. The hay harvest is completed. Young clover Is suffering very materially front hot weather Pastures are Puiup.'wCeiy gone in many localities. 4 , Tobacco is seriously in need of rain. More worms than usual and growth is very uneven. Small fruits all gored, except grapes, which appear to be in fair condition. All trie fruits will be exceptionally short and quality will be poor. Live stock in good condition. V Labor supply is plentiful at this time. Cantaloupes are coming onto the market and generally ate of fine quality with indications of a good yield.

SHARP BREAK IN PRICES OF GRAIN Heavy Receipts Take Edge Off Unusual Demand. CHICAGO, July 18.—Unusually heavy receipts of wheat thrown on the Chicago board of trade today took the edge off of the usual dernaud and caused a rather sharp break in all grain prices. Provisions were lower. July wheat opened at $1.28e, off l%e and closed off l%c. September wheat opened off %c at $1.30% and closed off 3%c. December wheat opened at $1.33, off 1 and closed off 4c. July corn opened %c lower at 61%c ; and closed off %c. September corn opened at 64%c, off 2c and closed 2%c. December corn was off %c at 63c and closed down 2%c. Julyionts opened at 40%c, off %c and closed* off %c. September oats opened off %c at 42%c and closed off lc. December oats opened off %c at 45%c and closed off %c. (By Thomson A McKinnon) —uly IS— Wheat— Advices from spring wheat territory have been less alarming, which fact coupled with a very heavy movement of winter wheat, has induced considerable belated liquidation. The total primary receipts were three times as large as last year; however, a good portion of this has already been sold and is simply en route to the seaboard. State authorities claim rains have come too late for material benefit. This applies to spring wheat territory. If the movement from first hands continues as liberal as at present, and if the milling demand fails to improve, the market will be subjected to a rather severe test. It is probably well to exercise caution in entering the market in an investment way, while the movement is at It* height, but we believe the world's situation will prove sufficiently strong to take care of all surplus which North America may have. Germany is a persistent buyer and is arranging new credits. Corn and Oats—Rather generous rains i over the western portion of the corn belt took the edge off the market and 1 affected oats indirectly. These rains have relieved apprehension in the central j part of the belt arid advices from the '• Northwest are of the most flattering • sort. It is estimated Europe will take I an average of half million bushels daily J through the crop year. As yet there is ! no prospect of any such foreign demand i us this for the oats, but the crop is j spotted We anticipate a weather market j in corn but advise against sales of oats. Provisions —A strong hog market in- j dueed a little short covering in provl- j sioiis, demand being filled by smaller I packers. Elimination of short interest left the market without support when a few realizing sales appeared toward the lost.

GERMANY FIGHTS • IMPORTED BOOZE Berlin Mass Meeting Appeals to Government. BERLIN, July 18.—All alcoholic beverages in general and Imported wines and whisky In particular were denounced In a mass meeting here In protest against the increasing consumption of alcohol in uermany. A resolution was passed appealing to tne government to heed the wishes of the prohibitionists as well as those of the manufacturers and consumers, pointing out th?t the Germans lost everything in the wr but their health and that this was being undermined rapidly by excessive drinking. Special attack wag made on imported Intoxlctants which, in edition to being more harmful because of greater alcoholic content, cause a continuous outflow of German money. They asked the government to license no more saloons and to prohibit the Importation of all Intoxicants The Union of Hotel Owners in South Bavaria, the fashionable summer resort district, indorsed the latter part of the resolution, agreed to discontinue serving foreign-made drinks, and urge the union of all German hotel proprietors to join the boycott, which is aimed at France as well as other former enemy countries. ‘HOLY’ VILLAGE IS DESTROYED African ‘Prophet’ Settlement Defied Government. CAPETOWN, July native religions sect which calls itself the “Israelites,” under a "prophet” named Enoch, who refused to evacuate government land at Bulhoek, near Queenstown, Cape Colony, lias been forcibly ejected, losing 171 killed and 126 wounded in a fight with mounted Cane police. FoT some years past the governmeni had permlttdl the "Israelites” to celebrate “Passover” on a common, but each year a growing number of pilgrims remained behind on what they called "holy ground" until a village of some 350 huts had sprung up. The sect forbade anybody to enter the village, or to recognize any authority except orders from "Jehovah, the God of Israel.” The government, some time 8 go, endeavored to register the settlement*, but the police were obliged to withdraw to avoid bloodshed. Peaceful efforts by the secretary for native affairs and others to induce the “Israelites" to withdraw failed. Finally a force of SOO mounted peltee movoi from Queenstown to demand the surrender of the village. With shouts of “Jehovah says we must fight.” 4,000 natives charged the police with swords and asseagls, the women urging on the men. The police let them come on until w ithin thirty yards and then fired. Thereupon the prophet Enoch surrendered. The village i* to be demolished. The affair has caused some stir in the Cape House of Assembly. Premier Smuts declared that in view of the natives' ohstinacy, there was no other way to make them understand that they mutt obey the law.

BRAIN OPERATION HELPS PARALYTIC Helpless for Eight Years, Then Restored. | DENVER, July 18.—Luther Dionne, for I many year* a shoemaker of Drummoudi vliie. Ontario, has been "reborn" after ly- ! ing a helpless paralytic in a hospital here I 1 for nearly eight years, and today he is enjoying his five vital senses ns the result of an extremely and >lionfe but highly stic- [ ressful operation upon his brain for the j I removal of a tumor. In addition to the restoration of the senses or smelling, tasting, hearing, see- ! lug ands -e!!rig. the operation brought j bn. k to Dionne the faculty of speech. Dionne’s recovery has been very slow. 1 | but steady, and he can now read and write and move about. Deaf, dumb and blind and paralyzed In every limb. Dionne was carried into the county hospital In 1913. Food had to bo administered to him by means of a tube through the nostrils. He could not feel, smell nor taste, and physicians said he could not even think. For months he existed in his living death, his condition of complete Inertia 1 remaining unchanged. Then Dr Ular ! enoe Hall and Dr. Leonard Freeman dei'fertnined to operate on Dionne's brain. > hey discovered that the nerve centefs | aad been paralyzed by a tumor nearly I an inch in diameter. j The tumor was removed and the proI cess of “regeneration" for Dionne set in. It. crept over his body slowly. He moved first one finger, then a second andHben his whole hand. Then, one day, he stirred his head, and finally, the most anxiously awaited sign of all came when the patient spoke. CIVIL LAW IN NEW GUINEA Former German Territory Under New Control.

NUDE WOMEN ON STAGE BACK AS FAR AS 2/100 B. C. Evolution of Female as Nature Made Her Studied by Paris Artists, PARIS, July 18.—Ever since the French Senate decided to cal* upon the government to suppress "Immoral” scenes In Paris theaters and to forbid nude women from appearing on the stage, French writers have been busy consulting history as to when women first appeared on the stage clothed only in "nature's robes." They have discovered that women and men as well, appeared nude on theater stages as long ago as 2.000 years B. C. In ancient Syria during the Venus celebrations women absolutely naked and not even wearing a string of beads, as they do In some places In Paris, would sing songs of praise to the goddess. It was the custom, in those days, with the Syrians, once a show was over, to call upon actors and actresses to disrobe and dance and sing. Objectors to such scenes were either asked politely to leave or were thrown out. From nudity and morals these same French writers stepped over to the history of marriage and Napoleon the First's morals. It appears Napoleon was a pure moralist and did not believe In love. “I do more than deny the existence of love.” he would say. “I believe It to be detrimental to society and to the individual happiness of man, and I firmly believe It does more harm than good.” Evident ly his wife, Marie-Louise, was of a different opinion, for she was thrice married and had at least two illegitimate chijdreu—one, Count de Montenuevo, being born three months after Napoleon’s death. CROWN PRINCE HAS INITIATIVE Heir to Jap Throne Picked to Direct Affairs. TOKIO, July IS. —The Crown Prince of Japan will return to Tokio late this summer. The first heir to the Japanese 1 throne to trnve] in foreign parts, he is i already attracting the attention of po--1 tltical dopesters as one who may take j part, if not direct, as did his grandfather, the Emperor Meijl, in the affairs j of a great nation. | The heir apparent to the throne of | Japan has thus far been a self-assertive, likable young man, one who has been watched by a strong-minded Empress and guided by at least fair coulctllors. His determnation to be rid of some of the “guidance" given his father has been shown notably in two affairs, first. h% •efusal to listen to demands made by i Prince Yamngnta, political leader and r near-clistator, that the Crown Princp <*ive up hla bfide-to-be, the Princess N'a- ; takn, nnd a daughter of Prince Kuni, ; >!d Satsuma clansman, and secondly, he ; refused the entreaties and attempts of 1 .fnts oj sjopn® TBOjisiod aiqtmojjsonb within the boundaries of the Japanese empire. ! No young man of 20 years could take ! the trip now being taken by the I Prince and fail to return home a man |of strength and ideas.

DIVER FIGHTS STOCKINGS RULE Girl Sunday Schod Teacher Opposes Regulations. ATLANTIC CITY, July 18.—Mi3s Ada Taylor, a Presbyterian Sunday school teacher, a champion high diver and president of the Ambassador Swimming Club, doesn't think much of the new beach regulations of Atlantic City, which pro hibit one-piece bathing suits for either sex and prescribe stockings and skirt* for women. She has written a letter of protest to Dr. Charles E* Bossert, chief beach censor in which she declares that the sheer, tantalizing silk stockings are worse than baye legs. “At'antlc City regulations.” says Miss Taylor’s letter, “require girls to wenr more clothing when they go in swimming than when they attend fashionable balls. As one who enjoys swimming, I have no patience with stockings. They become water-soaked and filled with sand, and not only are a nuisance, but a real sourea of 'danger. They make swimming hazardous. “As one who likes clean minds, X have no patience with stockings. It does not take much observation to realize that stockings, particularly those sheer, transparent si’k ones—and who wears wool on the beach?—fail to improve morals. “In all candor, doctor, who really attracts the really unfavorable attention. \he girl bather with bare legs or milady who rolls along the boardwalk with her tegs crossed, showing her costly sills, stockings at least to the knee? “Only the stocking manufacturers and the bathhouse proprietors profit by th rule you seek to enforce.” Not Alienated, She Had No Affections CLAREMONT.
