RECORD GRAIN CROP PART OF VICTORY YIELD

Indiana Farmers to Produce 60,000,000 Bushels of Wheat This Year.

INDIANAPOLIS, April 10. A wheat crop of approximately 60,000,000 bushels, and a rye crop exceeding 7,000,D00 bushels will be the share of the victory production campaign of the Indiana farmers for 1919, If -weather renditions continue favorable until harvest time, according to the Indiana crop report for April, issued today by George C. Bryant, field agent, of th bureau of crop estimates. United States department of agriculture. The report follows: An exceptional fall provided an excellent root growth to the wheat and rye plants and they came through the winter In a vigorous condition. While there was some freezing and thawing weather, but little damage has resulted from winter-killing and practically no Insect damage has been reported. Although much rain caused nearly all bottom lands In the central and southrra sections of the state to be flooded f radically no damage resulted. As he waters receded the weather was cool and local showers washed off the plants and left them as bright and vigorous as before. ( Farm Labor Supply ( A few warm days and timely showers in the early part of March, which has been exceptionally favorable, started the spring growth and the ground In covered much better than usual at this time of the year. Only the late . sown fields show and deficiency and this Is not marked. Present condition figures Indicate a crop of approximately 60,000,000 bushels for wheat, snd 7,000,000 bushels for rye, both of which are far above the average. In the northern third of the state, where the corn crop was a partial fallura, breeding sows have decreased In number compared to last year, while in the central and southern thirds an increase is shown. Thi3 leaves the total for the state practically the same as a year ago and is considerably above the usual number on hand at thi3 time. High prices and I he scarcity of feed, a3 well as the high prices paid for hogs, has caused some farmers to sell. The farm labor supply Is much better than last year, but the demand for labor Is hardly as great. Much more farm work was accomplished during the winter than usual and the demand for higher wages, better work!ng conditions and more privileges, together with more and better farm ma:hinery has also had a tendency to reduce the demand.

Goats Now Received at Kansas City Market (By Associated Press) KANSAS CITY, Mo., April 10. Daily telegraphic quotations on goats have been ordered from here by the government, owing to the greatly increased importance of this branch of the livestock industry. It is estimated that the Kansas City market, the largest in America and perhaps the largest in the world, will be receiving 3,000 goats daily by May 1. The goat tastes very much the same as mutton, dealers said in discussing disposition of goats sold on this market "A goat's reward for being fat and healthy is to become mutton, and a kid that goes to a packing house might be consoled with the knowledge that his epitaph on the menu will read 'lamb," " said one big dealer. He added that packers are required by the government to distinguish between sheep and goats in transaction with dressed meat retailers, but that the retailers are not required to so inform consumers. "The increasing magnitude of the goat market may be somewhat attributed to the fact that goats are quoted

usually at $2 to $2.50 a hundred under sheep," the dealer said. Goats are coming to market here from Texas, New Mexico and Arizona. Those not conditioned for slaughter are sold as feeders to farmers of Iowa, Missouri, Nebraska and Illinois, where they aid in clearing brush from pasture land.

A New Medicine

For Catarrh

Especially Effective In Chronic

Case of Long Standing Enormous Demand for it. Say Druggists ,

Since the virtues of Ice-Mint In the treatment of catarrh became known in this country, druggists have been having an extraordinary demand for it. It seems that Ice-Mint represents the new theory of medication containing highly penetrating yet soothing oils which are compounded by a special process in such a manner that when a little is placed just inside of the nostrils that the warmth of the skin liberates a soothing, medicated vapor that penetrates to every air-passage of the head, bringing instant relief to the sufferer. These medicated vapors that are gradually released by the warmth in the nostrils are with each breath drawn back and forth through the airpassages, soothing and healing the inflamed membranes. In this manner raw, soro places way back in the nasal passages are healed that could not be reached by the old-time methods of medication. The fact that Ice-Mint is pleasant to use. costs little, and does away so quickly with the disgusting symptoms of catarrh is of course mainly responsible for the great demand for it. Anyone who has suffered with catarrh, clogged nostrils, mucous droppings into the throat, cloudy thinking, head-noises or catarrhal deafness should by all means give this a trial. Adv.

The Latest Achievement in Farm Machinery Now in Our Line

If you could observe the careful manner in which The Massey-Harris Nob. 20 and 21 mowers are fitted and assembled, the large amount of steel used in their construction and the severe tests to which they are subjected before they pass inspection, and then follow them to the field and see how well they meet the needs of the actual users, It would require more than the usual force of argument to convince you that any other mowers contain the exceptional values found in them tor years studies and tests of different types were carried on with a view of getting a construction that , . v, V. a nthora Kil -armilri filnO hft TTlUCh better.

The result is one which embodies the very best in mower building and still provides the choice of either vertical or plain lifts with the usual range of sizes. Similar lines of construction are followed in both the Nos 20 and 21 but each is intended for a distinct purpose. The No. 20 is designed for use on the average farm and is built in the vertical lift style It is furnished with either 4 foot or 5 foot cutter bars. The No 21 is designed to supply the needs of those requiring a big, powerful machine and is of the plain fold type. It is furnished in three widths of cut 5 foot, 6 foot and 7 foot.
