ENTIRE COUNTRY SWELTERING IN RECORD HEAT High Temperatures Increase Damage Done by Five Rainless Weeks. By T'nitrii Prut CHICAGO, May 7. Sweltering heat over the entire country added today to the distress brought by five rainless weeks. Temperature records toppled everywhere yesterday as the mercury soared to 102 degrees in Phoenix, Ariz., an even 100 in Sioux City, la.; 98 in La Cross, Wis.; 90 in Chicago and New York, and into the 80s at almost all points reporting to the government weather bureau. Appreciable rains fell only in the lower Ohio and Mississippi valleys, with the clouds drifting to the southeast. The 100-degree mark in Sioux City and 90 degrees in Chicago for that date since the weather bureau was established in 1890. Little rain, if any, was in prospect for the great farm region between the upper Appalachians and Rockies. Wheat and corn fields shimmered with heat waves today, while even light breezes carried topsoil away in choking clouds. Threat to milk supplies of middle western cities was seen by Clifford V. Gregory, editor of a farm publication here. Mr. Gregory said that because of poor pasturage the normal milk surplus has been wiped out and another fortnight of drought would bring an actual shortage. Damage already done tp grain crops has caused 1 to 3 cent rises in prices of the principal grains on the Chicago Board of Trade. Crop experts predicted a shortage amounting virtually to a famine, although government officials scouted the idea that any possible deficit could be dangerous.

By Time* Special TIPTON, May 7.—Poor relief expense in Tipton county was greater in April than March, the total being $5,113. Several reasons are cited by relief workers as factors in increasing expense. They point to end of civil works administration employment and unseasonably cold weather, resulting in bills for fuel and a gain in illness. Another factor is a charge for ambulance service. imposed by undertakers, who under their recently adopted code, can no longer give such

service free. a a a Stone Order Placed fly 7 1 mm Sprrial BLOOMINGTON. May 7.—The J. M.
