CORN AND POTATO CROPS l!i STATE HURT BY FROSTS

Agricultural Agent Says Most of Corn Will Have Some Value. INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 9. The Indiana corn crop was reduced materially by the frosts in early October but not wholly ruined, according to a statement issued today by George C. Bryant, field agent for Indiana of the Bureau of Crop Estimates of the Department of Agriculture. The early frosts also injured the late potato crop in this state, he sayB. Mr. Bryant's statement foljows: "Frost early in October cut the corn crop, very materially, however, it Is not wholly ruined, and, while considerable of it will be soft and chaffy, nearly all will have some value. The average yield per acre is about what was expected and the extraordinary large acreage thl3 year will give plenty for home use and some to spare. Next year's seed is the largest problem just at this time. "The tobacco crop was harvested in good shape and is one of .the largest and best produced in recent years. The dark tobacco especially is a splendid crop and well housed. The Burley and Cigar types are hardly as good, however. Late Potatoes Damaged. -I'The late potatoes were materially damaged by " frost and the yield will be considerably reduced from former estimates. Plenty were produced, however, for the needs of the state. ' "Commercial orchards produced a fairly good apple crop this year, all of which are of good quality. Some farm orchards had a fair crop, but many of them were practically a failure, while others produced apples only fit for cider. San Jose scale was exceptionally severe this year and many farm orchards were destroyed. "Following in a brief summary of the woather as furnished by the Indianapolis station of the U. S. weather J'uroau. rho month throughout the state tho coldest and one of the stormiest, cloudiest and most disagreeable Octobers of official record. There were only four warm, pleasant days. Tha first hafl of tho period was very dry and practically all of the precipi- . tation, which was considerably above the normal generally, fell during the last half. Snow fell on several days, which is unusual for October, and depths of an inch or more were reported from several places." . ELDORADO, OHIO ! A. A.

This kind of rough talk will be heard less here in town if people troubled with corns will follow the simple advice of this Cincinnati authority, who claims that a few dops of a drug called freeione when applied to a tender, aching corn stops soreness at once, and soon the corn dries up and lifts right out without pain. He says f reezone is an ether compound which dries immediately and never inflames or even Irritates the surrounding tissue or skin. A quarter Df an ounce, of freezone will cost very little at any drug store, but is sufficient to remove every hard or soft corn or callus from one's feet. Millions of American women will welcome ihis announcement since the Inauguration of the high heels. Adv.
