The continued wet weather will probably make it impossible for many farmers in Jasper county to plant to corn all tlffe ground they had intended to. If not too late when this ground Bs fit to work, why would it not be a good idea to plant a lot of it to navy beans? The price of beans is the highest ever known—lo cents per pound retail—and a good crop of beans would probably pay double or treble that of corn, acre for acre. This country does not produce enough beans to supply the demand for local consumption and the canning factories, and some millions of bushels are imported each year. This is not as it should be and, with the conditions as they are this year, it is a good time for the farmers of Jasper county who have land that cannot be planted to corn in time to insure its maturing, to try planting a few acres of beans.

the appellant still may file petitions to have the opinion set aside. The syllabus of the opinion follows: 9054. Williams vs. Lowe. Carroll 0. Allirmcd. Hottel, P. J. I 1) This is the same case found in II App. 1 and 49 App. 606 on former appeals. The appellant and his law partner collectedmoney for appellee as their (limit and deposited the money in their own name in a bank. The appellee came into town after banking hours, the appellant gave him a check on the bank for the amount due him, appellee placed the check in a hank in his home town, but the bank on which the check was drawn did not open its doors for business next (lay, but failed, and suit is on the check. Appellant has assigned error to the sustaining of dem u rrers * ‘to the first paragraph of answer to appellee’s complaint” and "to the second paragraph of answer to appellee’s complaint,” but the first paragraph was addressed to the “first ■paragraph” of the complaint and the second paragraph of answer to the second paragraph of coin plaint , and neither to the whole complaint, so there is no ruling of the court to comply with the assignment. (2) A check is not barred by the six-year statute of limitations. (3) Every presumption is in favor of the verdict against the answers of the jury. (4) An agent, depositing money collected for the principal in the bank in the name of the agent Will not be allowed to put the loss of the failure of the bank upon the principal.
