RAINS ARE BENEFIT TO COUNTRY'S CROPS; DONT FALL ALL OVER

The Sunday storm came out of a red hot sky, -with many cyclonic Indications, with very high winds In certain districts, winds which drifted the water-laden clouds across wide spaces, where down-pours followed, leaving intervening country scarcely Vet. It was a rain of much lightning and thunder, characteristic of the Storms of sultry days which break periods of heat and prolonged drouth. While Lynn had a fairly good shower. Fountain City, just six miles east, had a very light sprinkle, which was true also of Williamsburg. Coming eouth to Richmond we strike a downpour, while three miles west of Richmond and a mile south of the National road, no water fell worth mentioning. Modoc Dust Barely Touched. Modoc, which has been dry for four weeks, had "Just a sprinkle," as the cashier of the bank, at that point, relates. He stated, too, that there was indication of a good rain in sight early Monday morning, but that at 10 o'clock the skies had cleared. The fact that we have had real rain In spots and that the air has been there is a rainy spell in prospect. I Country points having high wind and dittle rainfall report practically no Wamago from wind. Two Showers at Eldorado. The drouth at Eldorado, Ohio, was relieved by two good showers, the first fen Sunday afternoon, the second late Bn the evening. The manager of the Elevator at that point says that combining the two, they "had a fair rainfall, which will do a world of good." Dandy Rain at Greensfork. p Eden Martindale, of the Greensfork levator: "We had a dandy rain on (Sunday afternoon; couldn't have been jflner. It was perhaps three-quarters Ef an inch rainfall and puts our farmrs on easy street for awhile." Good Shower at Lynn. "The storm came up from the northwest, with considerable wind, but "When the water let go there was not (much of it. We could have done tetter with a heavier fall, but what fclid come down has done some jrood." This was the report from the banker at Lynn on Monday morning. A Lot of Water at Eaton. TheEaton National bank reports as Sollows: We had a soaking rain here ton Sunday afternoon, which seemed 4o be general as far as we could tobserve, and looked as if they had a till heavier downfall to the south of Eaton. No one has been in from the feouth as yet, so we don't know how far down the rain extended." On trying to raise an elevator at Camden, the Richmond operator reported the line "out", so it is likely that the storm covered the Camden district, this probably accounting for the line being out of order. Freak of the Weatherman. The writer was at the Fulghum-San-born place during the storm on Sunday afternoon. A high wind swept that district, which Is just a mile south of the National road, between Richmond and Centerville. The wind did no damage to this place, nor to that of Morgan LaMotte, but the rainall was insignificant, just a hasty drifting shower which did nothing but slightly wet the pastures. A mile or two further south a heavy rainfall was indicated. There also was a very light shower over that section along about midnight, with even less rainfall than during the afternoon. Light Shower at Dublin. The cashier of the bank at Dublin Bays: "We had a smart shower on Bunday, enough to do quite a little f;ood, especially as it cooled the air. t wasn't what was really needed, but Jt helped. There is no sign of rain here this forenoon. Looks as if the rain is over, just now." Charles D. Johnson, cashier of the Union county National bank at Liberty, reports "general showers over tTnion county." Mr. Johnson-thinks that the rain was heavy enough to get down to the moisture in the soil and that it was worth a lot of money to the farmers of that county. "Everybody is feeling better down this way, today," is the way he puts it.. "We had a good rain about 5 o'clock Sunday atternoon, ana a asm nowei Sunday nignt. is me report irom unj bank at Boston. "The rain was needed and has no doubt done a lot of good." Joseph Blose. cashier of the Centerville State bank: "Our Sunday rain was so light that it isn't even sticky this forenoon. There was a very light pprinkle during the night, but we have had no rain worth while." Farmers' State bank at Milton... 'We had just a shower on Sunday; hoi enough to call a rain." Like Dublin, Milton and Centerville, Cambridge City was in the dry belt rm Riiniiav. A shower with considt'Derablo wind is reported from Cam bridge City, but no rain to speaK oi.

Hie rarm and the Farmer BY WILLIAM R. SANBORN Frank Osborn, living south of town, was at Glen Miller with live stock on Saturday, where he stated that he had 30 acres of corn which had so far not been discovered by any kind of a bug or worm. Morover he has about the same acreage in oats which hasn't shown any effects of the drouth to date. As to wheat his 20 acre field was sown late and shows a good stand with plenty of color. The lack of rain had not yet been noticed on his field3 he said, but is was high time for a shower, pacticularly so for clover and pastures. Jesse Druley, of Richmond and Boston township, has a lot of hog3 ready for market. He was to have shipped two cars on Saturday but for the fact that Glen Miller was short on stock cars, of which no was notified before starting to load his trucks. Sold A Bunch of Yorkshires. One of the Ollle Hodgin trucks brought a bunch of Yorkshire hogs to the yards Saturday, the first bunch of this breed to come in for some time. The 10 in this bunch belonged to Jack Knollenburg, and came from stock originally sold by Clem Gaar. Mr. Gaar said that a thrifty Yorkshire pig, iea plenty or rape and other ereen 'ppds. would grow as bi as a barn on mighty little rrain, and do so in double quick time. There are very few Yorkshires in the Richmond radius. "The old saying is, 'a dry June for good corn'," said George Kircher, "and this June is dry all right. Corn once well started in a srood, moist seed bed, will stand a lot of heat and dry weather, if well cared for. This is shown by any number of fields to be seen as you travel the country roads." All Kinds of Worms. James Petrie, living six miles west on the Greensfork Pike, tetts us that there are web worms, cut worms and heart worms, all making a good living in his young corn. In some places a rod or two will be entirely stripped of corn and will have to be replanted. He thinks a lot of corn will have to be replanted with the drill, to offset the ravages of these pests. "I think corn would quickly grow away from these pests if we had a good, soaking rain. These worms do most damage to the young and tender shoots," said Mr. Petrie. "We have wheat in our neighborhood that looks good for 15 bushels and more, that may not be worth cutting." Wool Men Decide to Let Chicago Co. Handle Clip; Order Sacks of . F. Murphy Wool growers of Wayne county, in the county agent's office on Saturday night, decided to consign their wool to the Chicago Wool Growers' Consigning company, a co-operative firm that has handled the wool clip of the Illinois farm bureau members for the past two years. This concern will grade each separate parcel of wool for the individual farmer and when sold he will be paid according to grade or grades of his clip. Just when the wool will be finally marketed depends on market conditions. C. F. Patetrson, of Tipton county, asserted that there is at this time no market for wool in Indiana. The same is true, too, of western states, as advices covering Montana, Wyoming and Nebraska has recently shown. Nearly all Iowa wool is being pooled, also, and the banks are loaning money on the clips on warehouse receipts, properly drawn and protected. A county wool growers' association was formed as follows: Robert E Whiteland, R. R. "B". Richmond, president; Theodore Davis, of Greensfork, vice president; and Clyde Thomas, secretary. These men, with E. F. Murphy, county agent, will order wool sacks for shippers and lend all possible aid in marketing the wool to advantage, and will bundle the shipment. Order Your Sacks. The wool shippers will notify Mr. Murphy of the number of sacks desired and remit to him to cover the cost, and he will in turn distribute the sacks. Farmers will then be notified of where wool deliveries can be made tQ best advantage, The beaches of Snails island in the Gulf of Mexico change color twice daily with the tides.

WHEAT FIELDS ARE PLOWED UP, REPORT OF G BRYANT SAYS The weekly crop report of George C. Bryant, field agent of the co-operative crop reporting service for Indiana, Is as follows: "AH farm work, made good progress during the week. Plowing and seeding is practically aii completed. "With the exception of some bottom land and a few wheat fields that have recently been plowed up all corn planting is finished. Cultivation is well under way, but rain is badly needed in some localities. "Ravages of Hessian fly and- Joint worm are getting more noticeable in winter wheat. Some fields are so badly straw fallen they will hardly be worth cutting. Some were plowed up and seeded to other crops during the week. "Spring wheat is still looking fairly well, but the weather is too warm for this crop. "Oats and barley made good growth during the week and show a slight improvement, but are beginning to need rain in some sections, "Rye cutting will start next week in some of the southern counties. A good yield is looked for. Potato Planting Goes Well. "Potato planting is going along well. Acreage will be short. Early crop very short. "Alfalfa cutting has commenced with good yields. Some clover will be cut this week. All hay crops are continuing more or less weedy. Army worms are continuing to do considerable damage in some of the southern counties. "The transplanting of tobacco is moving very rapidly and the acreage will be increased to a considerable extent. "Prospects for apples and peaches continue excellent, although the June dron is quite heavy in some counties. "Truck crops generally are above the average condition . at this time. Pastures continue good to excellent In most sections." Strikes and lockouts reported to the British ministry of labor during 1919, numbered 1,413. COULDN'T DOUBLE UP HIS FISTS Suffered great pains from rheumatism of the joints. His muscles were sore and stiff. Claims great relief since taking Dreco, the great herbal remedy. When the kidneys become weak or deranged it is impossible for them to separate the poisons from the blood as it passes through these organs; the kidneys are the filtering plant for the body; as the blood goes through they strain out the poisons and pass them from the system. If these poisons stay in the blood such troubles as rheumatism, catarrh, sallow skin, dizziness, headaches, etc. show up. The body requires a full supply of pure, rich red blood, free from poisons, to keep it in a healthy condition. Dreco acts on the kidneys, keeping them strong t t purify our blood supply. "The greatest relief I've known in years is since I took Dreco," said Mr. Lester S. Geyer, a highly respected employe of the Starr Piano Co., Rich mond, Ind. "I've been full of rheumatism, acb ing joints, and sore muscles for a long time. "My hands were so sore I couldn't double up my fists; I couldn't bend over without having terrible pains in mv back. I've taken so much medicine that my stomach was all out of order. My food didn't digest and I got nervous and weak, but I'm feeling great once more for I've never seen anything take hold like Dreco did. It simply knocked out my troubles and put me on my feet again." All good druggists now sell Dreco and it is highly recommended in Richmond by Clem Thistlethwaite's Seven Drug Stores.

Grain Men Are Called To Consider Car Shortage; Situation May Be Serious A state-wide conference of grain producers In Indianapolis on June 29 and 30 is to be called by Lewis Taylor, gen- j eral secretary of the Indiana Federation of Farmers' associations. Many Wayne County men will doubtless attend. Representatives of the various county associations, railroad officials, bankers, elevator men and officers of the Indiana Coal Operators association will be asked to attend. In addition, a representative from the Federal reserve bank for this district will be asked to be present. The conference is called primarily for the purpose of devising ways and means whereby the farmer may be able to move his wheat and oats crop in the face of the present shortage of cars. Face Serious , Problem. Mr. Taylor said that he grain producers are facing a serious problem in all parts of the state through the car shortage and that elevator men were unable to get the necessary cars to move what grain they have on hand. He said that the wheat and oats, much of which Is hauled directly from the thrashing machine' to the elevator, would make matters worse in the way of congestion. Another phrase of the situation pointed out by Mr. Taylor was that banks all over the country are heavy Borrowers rrom the Federal reserve and that if the elevators are not in a position to ship they would be compelled to borrow on the grain they have on hand, provided this were possible.
