WILL GOVERNOR CALL SESSION? ANSWER WAITED
Peach Crop Will be Only Moderate; Prices Not Expected to Go Down Much

years, says the Bureau of Markets. Probable shipments appear more limited when it Is considered that fully half the crop, or over 16,000,000 bushels, is credited to California. Nearly 90 percent of the California crop is commonly used for drying and canning, which would leave only about 3,600 cars to be shipped as fresh fruit. Actual shipments may equal 4,000. In previous years the California crop has not been over one-third the total. Georgia, the leading Southeastern producing section, according to early indications, will ship about 7,700 cars,
including 3,000 cars of Elbertas, com
pared with 8,400 last year's totals. Ar-
INDIANAPOLIS. Ind., July 17. Whether Governor Goodrich will call a special session of the legislature seems now to depend upon whether the eighteen state institutions can manage to subsist on revenues that have been increased only 6 percent since 1917, whereas the cost ot maintenance, due to abnormal prices, has increased all the way from 50 to 100 percent. The governor announced three weeks ago that he had decided to call a special session to ratify the federal woman suffrage amendment and take
care of the straitened institutional finances of the state. Since that time, however, the political aspects of a special session have given rise to statements by Republicans well informed on political conditions that a meeting of the legislature now would be unwise, and might precipitate trouble both for the state administration and the party. Party leaders friendly to the governor do not deny that if Lieutenant Governor Bush takes an antagonistic attitude toward matters brought before the special session, he may projlong the session unnecessarily by a deadlock and at the same time make capital that would be eagerly appropriated by Democratic opponents. But the 1919 legislature, not foreseeing the sharp advance in prices, provided for an emergency maintenance fumd of 5150,000 to be used by the governor to assist the institutions. Notwithstanding the skimping that the heads of the insltutions have been forced to practice all the emergency fund has been apportioned to the institutions. In addition to the $150,000, the governor has turned over to the institutions $9,000 from his emergency contingent fund and $8,481 from the
civil and military contingent fund. Institutions "Broke" As tho regular appropriations of thf
-v? feral year will not be available 'i' October 1 and every cent of :,:o;-.ry r.va'iablo in this fiscal year, ha-s b-m placed at their disposal, the ircorda In the auditor of state's office show That Indiana's institutions are "broke." Two of the state institutions will not be able to pay all their July bills on August 1. A larger number of thr will not be able to pay any of the August bills on September 1 and not more than three or four will bo able to fin-!r-the fiscal year without going into debt. According to the estimate made to the visiting committee by the auditor of state prior to the 1919 Legislature, it is estimated that the deficit in the maintenance fund3 of state institutions tor 1 ho present fincal year, ending September Si, would be $300,000. It appears now that this deficit will materialize to within a few thousand dollars. As $165,000 of the deficit has been taken care of by the emergency funds, there will remain an accumulation in unpaid bills at the end of the year e mounting to about $200,000. These bills can not be paid out of the 1919-1920 appropriations. The only way that these debts can be paid is by an act of the Legislature appropriating funds for the purpose. There is plenty of money in the state treas
ury, but it can not be used legally in helping out the Institutions. The balance of revenue in the state treasury Wednesday was $2,013,217.62. Ran $144,000 Short During the last fiscal year, ending Bept. 31, 1918. the institutions ran $144,000 short. Under war conditions the governor and auditor assumed responsibility for obtaining the money needed. The money borrowed then was met by an appropriation by the last legislature. It is said that Governor Goodrich and Otto L. Klauss, auditor, have taken the stand that they will not attempt to provide for the deficit this year as they did last year under the war stress. They have mo legal right to obtain funds to asjeist the institutions when all appropriations are exhausted, j As the condition of state Institution (finances seems to make it imperative .that legislative action be taken, those Who have analyzed the Bltuation deiclare that ;v special session can not be avoided ana that if 6uch a session is held it must convene before the end of the fiscal year in order that the debts ot the Institutions can be paid.

by the fairly large Georgia crop. The
prices, although starting higher than
for the same varieties last year, have not differed greatly from last year's general range, but the tendency has
been toward a higher average level than any other of the three preceding years except 1917. The range Is a
little lower than the prevailing prices
of 1917 and a litUe above the general
range of 1916. Early kinds this season have sold
to the jobbing trade in leading markets
$1.2503.75 per six basket carrier, or bushel basket, opening at the top price and declining gradually to an
average of about $2. Midseason kinds, like Carman s, average about $2 3 for sales to the jobbing trade in late June and July, and Hileys $2.5003.50. Early range of Elbertas was slightly above that for Hileys. Last year the early low point was $1.50 2.60 for jobbing sales, and high point late in July was $3.254 for Elbertas. In 1917 the start was $2.50 $3.50, and the market did not drop below $2 at any time, but reached top of $4. The 1919 Jobbing range, although that was not a heavy crop year, ranged the lowest of the past four seasons, opening at $1.75 2.75. touching the lowest range at $102.50 in July, and at no time exceeding $3.50. This season's prices, f. o. b. Georgia shipping points in the first half of June ranged $1.503; mostly $1.50 $2.25 for early and midseason varieties and averaged 6lightly higher at $1.75 2.25 the second half of June, but closed the month weak at $1.252.25. Late varieties ranged $1.50 2.50 f. o. b., the second week in July. Prices at Georgia shipping points have been little higher than last season. Early ranges of $1.503, compared with average of $2 for the opening price in 1918. This year, however, a low range of $1.502 was reached
Skirts to Be Tighter This Fall and Skinnier
NEW YORK, July 16. Skirts will be shorter this fall, even if the pockets have to be moved north. Tighter or skinnier much, much skinnier. The dress fabrlo buyers, meeting here, are one la saying It has to be done, for there Isn't going to be enough cloth to go round. If some one insists on eight-yard scenery, they say, somebody else must stay home.
And all this because: 1. The silkworms have joined the BolshevikL 2. Planters are growing watermelons, or something, instead of cotton. 3. Woolly lambs are breaking altitude records. 4. He who tolls is getting to be an uncertain commodity. But this only scratches the surface for It waa flatly predicted by manufacturers there will not be enough material for five years. Fur men here for the annual $1,000,000 auction are less pessimistic, fortunately. The fur market Is strong, they say, with everything from weasels to silver foxes in demand.

Take plain bitro-phosphate" la excellent advice to thin, delicate, nervous people who lack vim, energy and nerve force, and and there seems to be ample proof of the efficacy of this preparation to warrant the recommendation. Moreover, If we judge from the countless preparations and treatments which are continually being: advertised for the purpose of making- thin people fleshy, developing- arms, neck and bust, and replacing ugly hollows and angles by the soft curved lines of health and beauty, there are evidently thousands of men and women who keenly feel their excessive thinness. Thinness and weakness are often due to starved nerves. Our bodies need mors phosphate than is contained In modern foods. Physicians claim there is nothing- that will supply this deficiency so well as the organic phosphate known among druggists as bltronhoanhate. which is inexpensive and is
sold by Conkey Drug Co. in Richmond
and most an druggists under a guarantee of satisfaction or money back.

C. showed that two patients gained in weight 23 and 2? pounds respectively, through the administration of this organic phosphate: both patients claim they have not felt as strong and well for the past twelve

Nervousness, sleeplessness and lack of energy, which nearly always accompany excessive thinness, should soon disappear, dull eyes ought to brighten and pale cheeks glow with the bloom of perfect health. Physicians are now recognizing it3 merits by its use in ever increasing quantities. Frederick Kolle. M. n., editor of New York Physicians" '-Who's Who." says: "Bitro-Phosphate should be prescribed by every doctor and used in every hospital to increase strength and nerve force and to enrich the blood." Joseph D. Harrigan. Former Visiting Specialist to North Eastern Dispensatory, says: "Let those who are weak, thin, nervous, anaemic, or run-down, take a natural, unadulterated substance such as bitro-phosphate and you will soon see some astonishing results in the increase of nerve energy, strength of body and mind and power of endurance." Bitro-Phosphate is made entirely of the organic phosphate compound referred to in the National Standard Dispensatory as being an excellent tonic and nervine and a preparation which has recently acquired considerable reputation In the treatment of neurasthenia. The standard of excellence.
