IXDIAXAPOLIS, July 10. Diseases, insects and the weather seemed to
have combined forces during the past ' crop

10 points respectively above last month's figures. All truck crop figures remain practically the same as a month ago. Present condition figures show tomatoes to be 87 per cent of normal. Cabbages S8 per cent and onions 89 per cent. Blackberries and raspberries continue very good and are about the only fruit that shows an average crop, the condition being 91 per cent of normal. Watermelons and cantaloupes show an increase of 9 and 5 points respectively over last month's figures, the condition of both being 85 per cent of normal. A considerably larger acreage of broom corn than usual was put out
this year. The condition is 84 per cent of normal and indicates a fair

Thursday. The report shows the con
dition of all principal crops to be somewhat under the figures reported a month ago by the bureau of crop estimates, and the acreage of corn, potatoes, and timothy hay to be somewhat less than a year ago. The sweet potato acreage is about the same as last year and the tobacco acreage ta increased slightly over last year. Weather conditions delayed com planting until the last of June la. some of the southern counties, and tonsequently the condition is not what It should be. Wheat scab, loose smut
and insects have done much damage to the wheat crop and army worms
The sorehum cane acreage is slight
ly less than last year, but with a condition of 89 per cent of normal, about the usual amount of molasses is indicated. Regarding the European supply of cereal crops, it is definitely known that the 1919 crops will not near come up to the average and because of a shortage of hay and forage much of the cereal crops will be cut green and used for feed. A decrease in the condition figure of all crops is shown since the June report. In the United States all cereal crops except barley, show a decline since

Oats are off 4 points compared with
last month. The severe heat at the i time of filling is the principal cause I of the deterioration, although rainy ! weather had a bad effect. Present !
figures indicate a production of approximately 06,400,000 bushels. Barley shows a decline of 6 points a", compared to last month. Rains and too much hot weather are the principal factors contributing to the decline. Present figures indicate a crop of 1.156,000 bushels. Potato Acreage Less
Rye shows a decline of only 2 points J as compared with last month, due j principally to the army worm devastation in the eastern part of the j state. Present figures indicate a crop i of approximately 6,738,000 bushels. j The potato acreage is slightly less j than last year due to heavy falling off in the commercial crop. Present ' figures indicate a crop of 7.832,000 bu
shels on approximately 93,000 acres. The sweet potato acreage is practically the same as last year, and a crop of 300,000 bushels is indicated on the 3,000 acres set out. Army Worms Are Factor Army worms devastated many timnthv anil rlnvpr fiplrls in 1hc eastern
rart of the state and were the prin- j cipal factor in showing a decline of 6 j points in these crops since last month, j Present figures indicate a production i of 2,604,000 tons, notwithstanding i many timothy meadows were plowed ur early in the season. The tobacco acreage in the burley district is considerably increased over ! last year, but in the dark district the ! Increase, if any, is negligible.

Gas would form and bloat me up until I was scared to lie down, for when I did my breath would just stop. I couldn't eat much of anything and even then I would puff around and suffer agony for two hours. I had dizzy spells so bad I would have to grab hold of something to keep from falling.

I wasn't able to do any more work all that Fall and Winter, but just doctored and took medicine and tried to get myself in shape.

than it had ever been and I actually thought I was going to pass in my checks before I could get any help. Why. even water hurt my stomach. I had to live on milk and soup, mostly, and dropped right down to where I scarcely weighed a hundred pounds. I suffered every minute of my life, the nights were as miserable as the days, and would rather have been dead than in such agony. I was too nervous and racked with pain to sleep and was simply a physical wreck. I had tried everything and was so discouraged and out of heart that I had decided never to try again. "But I heard a fellow down at Glasford how he had gotten rid of stomach trouble by taking Tanlac. So I went right in, while the notion was on me, and brought a bottle and that was when the long lane turned for me. I had not finished the first bottle untill I comenced to want to eat for the

I had almost forgot to get a regular meal, but I went right after it, and when it didn't hurt me I was the proudest fellow you ever saw, I kept right on with Tanlac until I took nine bottles and today I'm as well as when I was a boy. I have gained forty-five pounds in weight and am as strong as an ox. I sleep like a log every night, work hard every day, and once more enjoy eating like I did before my-stomach got out of fix. I am one man that Tanlac had certainly made feel like new and it is the only medicine I keep in my house any more." Tanlac is sold in Richmond by Clem Thistlethewaite; in Greensfork, by C. D.
