CHOP C0HD1TI0NS ARLBUT FAIR Oats and Wheat Crops Short, But Corn Will Yield Abundantly.

FRUIT IS A FAILURE. APPLES AND PEACHES ARE THE WORST SUFFERERS BY UNFAVORABLE CONDITIONS RAIN IS NOW NEEDED.

Farmers near Richmond and In fact all OTer this county, now that the oats threshing Is underway, report that the crop this year will be short, compared with former years. The shortage is attributed to the adverse weather conditions which have been good for almost any thing except oats. In many places where the threshers have been, a brown rust has been found on the leaves of the oats and it is believed that this In a way has helped ruin the crop. East of the city the oats have been yielding from 5 to 15 bushels to the acre which is about 'one fourth of the crop in this section of the county. There is one noticlble defect in the grain this year. It is very much more undersized than it usually is. The corn promises to be one of the largest that the farmers of Wayne county have ever had. The acreage Is about the largest It has ever been

and If the frost stays away until a

reasonable date and there is no wind storms, there is no reason why the corn crop should not be a record breaker.

Besides the shortage in the oats and

wheat crops the farmers will have

very little fruit this year. In many

places the peaches are scarce. Ap pies are almost an entire failure.

Plumbs are fair but are stung. There will be a fair yield of pears. Grapes

will probably yield heavily.

Potatoes have the weather that is

suited for their fast growing. Al

though in many places the potato is not up to the average quality, they

will make a fair yield. Sweet pota

toes are doing fine and a large yield

is expected.

Sweet corn is not as good as former years. It is believed that the late corn will be better. The early corn

did not get enough rain and for this reason is dried and not as sweet as

the corn commonly is.

Tomatoes, with a rain will yield abundantly. At present they need

rain very badly because the vines

are loaded down with large green to znatoes.

FOR SORE FEET.

T have found Bucklen's Arnica

Salve to be the proper thing to use for

sore feet, as well as for healing burns,

sores, cuts and all manner of abra

sions," writes Mr. W. Stone, of East Poland, Maine. It is the proper thing too for piles. Try it! Sold under
