STATE CORN CROP WILL AVERAGE 37 BUSHELS AN ACRE

With the exception of heavy rains, which caused a flooded condition in some of the Bouthern counties of the state, the month continued favorable for ripening and gathering the corn crop and an average yield of 37

bushels per acre is shown, according

to the report of the co-operative crop reporting service for Indiana, issued

Monday. On this figure a total production of approximately 181,000.000 bushels is indicated, which is nearly

12.000,000 bushels more than the 1915 crop. The feeding value of the crop is

much greater than any produced in

recent years and all of it matured

without frost damage. Ten per cent of the crop was cut for ensilage and

there are about 7,000,000 bushels of

the 1918 crop still in the farmers'

hands.

Buckwheat, which is rather a small acreage in this state, shows a total

production of approximately 264,000

bushels and is about an average crop

In many localities, the white potato crop was almost a failure and the

production for the state only amounted to a little more than 4,000.000 bush

els, which means that many farmers will have to buy potatoes for home use. Sweet potatoes were very good, but only a little more thaif 300,000 bushels were produced. The apple crop was one of the smallest ever produced and amounted to only 1,700,000 bushels. The clover seed crop is also one of the smallest ever produced and will approximate only about 75,000 bushels. The report follows: Yield Is 37 Bushels While only about one-half of the corn has been husked, an average of 37 bushels per acre is shown, which is .7 of a bushel more than the tenyear average, and indicates a total production of approximately 181,000,000 bushels. The weather for the month continued favorable for the ripening and gathering of the crop, except in some of the southern counties where heavy rainfall occurred and many small streams, as well as the White and Wabash rivers, overflowed the bottom lands and did considerable damage. The entire crop was matured before any killing frost occurred, and the feeding value is greater than for any crop of recent years, regardless of size. Of the total corn acreage 10 per cent was cut for ensilage and averaged 8.5 tons per acre. There is about 7,000.000 bubshels of last year's crop still in farmers' hands. The average weight per measured bushel of grain run3 rather light, as follows: winter wheat, 55 pounds; spring wheat, 50 pounds; oats, 51 pounds; barley, 45 pounds. Buckwheat averaged 16.5 bushels per acre, which is .7 of a bushel less than the ten-year average, and indicates a total production of 264,000 bushels. White potatoes only averaged fortyfour bushels per acre, which is thirtythree bushels under the ten-year average. A total production of 4.1SO.00O bushels is Indicated by these figures and means that many farmers will have to buy for home use. Sweet potatoes averaged 105 bushels per acre, which is six bushels over the ten-year average. A total production of a little more than 300,000 bushels is indicated by these figures. Tobacco is Light Tobacco was a new crop in many localities this year and much of it was set on virgin soil. Many heavy yields were reported and the average is around 800 pounds per acre, which is slightly less than the ten-year av

erage, and indicates a total production of a little over 14,000,000 pounds. Apples only show 19 per cent of a full crop, which is 31 per cent under the ten-year average, and indicates a total production of approximately 1,700,000 bushels, one of the smallest crops ever produced in the state. Clover seed averaged only one bushel per acre, which is one-half bushel under the ten-year average. Only 55 per cent of the usual acreage was harvested and, on thse figures, ap-

proximately 75,000 bushels is Indicated, and this amount will not supply the state's needs. Grain, sorghum and field peas pro

for grain an" nvs" " -duction was 71 per cent of normal and pears only li per c-t. to.fa.. . cane shows eighty-two gallons of sirup per acre, which is eleven gallons under the ten-year average. According to the government crop report, issued last Saturday, the to

tal corn production for tn Unitf-dj States amounts to 2,910,000,000 bush-! els and is approximate 10.00J voo

bushels more than was forecasted last month. There are 72,300,000 bushels of the 1913 crop still on farms.

HACKETT, AMERICAN TENOR, IS WITH COLUMBIA

Metropolitan's Newest Star Has Two Selections in Record List for November Plenty of Popular Music.

Another illustrious name now appears on the list of operatic stars who make records for Columbia. It Is that of Charles Hackett, the young American tenor, who scored a brlliantly successful debut at the Metropolitan Opera House last winter. Hackett's first two Columbia Records appear In the list of new offerings for November. One of them Is the brilliant aria which drew the opening outburst of applause at his Metropolitan debut the serenade "Ecco Ridente in Cielo," from Rosini's "Barber of Seville" and it Is brilliantly sung. The other is "Che Oelida Manlna,' from Puccini's "La Boheme." In this number the young tenor shows both lyric sweetness and fine dramatic power. Like many another noted American singer, Hacket 6cored his first triumph abroad. His opening engagement in opera was In Florence,, and his marked success there was repeated in other Italian cities. Next he sang in Buenos Aires, where standards of musical criticism are markedly high, and won signal honors. His debut at the Metropolitan last winter was followed by some remarkable tributes from the musical critics. OTHER OPERATIC RECORDS. Among the other operatic stars of Columbia who contribute to the November group of records are Ponselle, Barrientos, and Stracciari. A noteworthy record is Ponselle's singing of the touching and intensely dramatic "O Patria Mia!" from Verdi's Aida."

All the heartache of the captive maid

en is heard in the strains of this famous aria as it is sung by Rosa Ponselle. Barrientos and Stracciari are heard in a thrilling rendition of the ringing "Vengeance Duet" from Rigoletto, and

Stracciari puts all the masterly art of a finished opera singer into the simple words and melody of Von TilZer's "When the Evening Bells are Ringing." A song from Carmen, Michaela's sweet and tender aria, is charmingly given by Hulda Lashanska, Amparito Farrar is heard to splendid advantage in two numbers Moskowski's "Serenata" and Tosti's "Venitian Song." Eddy Brown plays with his usual finish and style his own transcription of J. B. Cramer's "Rondino," and a transcription by Arthur Hartman of MacDowell's "To a Wild Rose." Excellently rendered, indeed, by the Metropolitan Opera House Orchestra, are the reverberating Victory March from "Aida" and the sparkling, fascinating "Dance of the Hours" from "La Giconda."

DANCE MUSIC. Seven different musical organizations contribute to Columbia's November dance list, two of them being new. commers the Synco Jazz Band, and Sherbo's Orchestra. Both of these provide dance music In New York's "White Way" restaurants. The Synco Jaxzers offer "Breese" fox-trot. Sherbo's Orchestra a pair of fox trots, "Tulip Time" from "Follies of 1919," and "Allah's Land." The Columbia Saxaphone Sextet puts a lot of Tim into "Beautiful Ohio Blues" and "I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles," In which there Is an Incidental chorus sung by Campbell and Burr. Another dance record with vocal interlude la "Tell TJs" fox-trot, by the Waldorf-Astoria Singing OrchestraDance mueio is also contributed by the Louisiana Five Jazz Orchestra, Sweatman's Original Jazz Band and Columbia Orchestra. SONG HITS. Among the popular song hits offered by the New Columbia Records, is -Irving Berlin's "Mandy," from the 1919 "Follies." sung by Van and Schenck. Coupled with it Is "I'll Be Happy When the Preacher Makes You Mine," sung by Irving and Jack Kaufman, with extremely amusing vocal effects. Nora Bayes has two sparkling num

bers, "In Miami" and "Jerry." Al Jolson gets a lot of fun out of "Who Played Poker with Pocahontas When John Smith Went Away?" and Harry Fox is heard merrily among the toots of river boats of, "Alexander's Band Is Back in Dixieland." Arthur Fields' contribution Is "The Gates of Gladness," which is bo far out of the ordinary as to make a decided appeal, and "If You Don't Stop Making Eyes at Me." in which he contrives to put all the fun that the message of the song justifies which is a lot. Campbell and Burr have two charming harmony duets, "Dreamy Alabama" and "Hawaiian Lullaby." A record which will find many owners is one which has on one side,

"Oh, What a Pal Was Mary!" sung by Henry Burr, and on the other the famous 6ong "Waiting." from the musical comedy "Listen Lester." The latter has a unique accompaniment xylophone with pizzicato violins, producing an extremely novel effect. Unusually interesting are two selections played by the Columbia Spanish Band, "Gayety" and "The Firecracker." Both have the Indescribable fire and fury of Spanish dance music, and there i3 a ceaseless, rhythmic rattle of castanets, wonderfully played, running through each of them. Other band records are "National Emblem" march, by TT. S. S. Pennsylvania Band, and "Our Director" march, by the Columbia Band. The Columbia Orchestra gives Robert Hood Bower's beautiful "Chinese Lullaby." from "East is West," and Durand's "Chacone."

"I have suffered for quite a while with sluggish liver: at times I would get so dizzy, I would have to stop and pit down; spots would dance before my eyes; I had headaches and a bad taste in my mouth; my appetite became poor, and my food did not digest nor give me strength; my stomach was often sour, while gas and bloating caused me much uneasiness. Tha pains often extended round to my back and limbs, so that it was an effort to keep on with my work," says Mr. F. M. Lamb, a truck driver living on Conner Road, West, near Richmond, Ind. "There was so much talk about and praise being given Dreco, I decided to try it. The first bottle proved to mo it was a good medicine, as it soothed my stomach and relieved the ga3 forming. I continued the treatment, and never have a dizzy spell, nor see the spots before my eyes; my bowels act regularly: my appetite is fine; and the food digests and gives me strength; I don't have any more pains in my back or limbs, and haven't had a headache in a long time. Dreco is a good medicine, and I gladly add my words of praise for it." "Dreco acts on the liver in a smooth gentlemanner, gradually working off the excess bile day by day. It is neither strong nor harsh, and does not excite the muscles of the bowels, as strong cathartics do. It tones up the digestive organs, and relieves gas on the stomach; puts an end to constipation: increases the appetite; gives strength to weak kidneys; restores tired nerves, and induces sound sleep. Dreco is a great blood pirifier and system cleanser. Mr. Powers, the well known Dreco expert, has headquarters at the Conkey Drug Co., to meet the local public and explain the merits of this great ymedy. See him today. Adv.

"When it comes to stoves, you folks undoubtedly show the greatest assortments I have ever beheld, but the most remarkable thing to me is that you can sell so many in a town of this size said a traveling man ycrday. When told, however, that Reed's, having maintained for years a very high reputation for selling GOOD STOVES, and rendering a service in connection that was of the very highest order, it was not hard for him to understand why the major part of Richmond and Wayne county folks come to Reed s for stoves. Just this carefully guarded reputation is responsible for the big volume of business this store does in stoves, offering only those stoves which have by actual and rigid test proved to be coal savers and thoroughly reliable. Reed's have never yet, nor never will, offer "speculative" stoves. Globe Ranges have proven their goodness through many years and we unhesitatingly recommend them to Richmond and Wayne county people. Right today we are showing many different styles of Globe Ranges a style to meet every single requirement. Ours probably is the greatest assortment of Ranges shown by any store in Indiana and they are tried and true. We know they are good and, knowing it, we endorse them unreservedly, each and every one.
