WHEAT GUTTING IN FULL SWING; OATS ARE HEADED OUT
The weekly crop report of George C. Bryant, field agent of the co-operative corn reporting service for Indiana, is as follows: "Harvesting of small grain and hay crops in Indiana Is progressing very satisfactorily. Heavy storms Thursday night did considerable damage in several counties in the north central part of the state. Soil conditions generally are very good. "Corn is progressing very favorably. Conditions during the past week were 'very satisfactory. All fields are in good condition, but are 10 days to three weeks late. Plenty of moisture in most places. ""Winter wheat cutting is in full swing in the southern half of the state. Some fields will make splendid yields, while others will barely return the seed. Thrashing will begin Monday. l The average yield will be hard to es1 timate. Cutting in the north half will 'a,Btar next week. Oats on Short Straw. "Oats are nearly all headed out. but mostly on short straw. The stand and color generally are very good. With continued favorable weather about the average crop will be harvested. Cutting will commence about the 12th. "Except in the extreme northeast section of the state, the barley crop is in good condition. "Rye is in good condition in all sections and cutting is progressing very satisfactorily. "Early potatoes will be harvested in the southern counties in about two weeks. A fair yield is looked for. Late
varieties are in somewhat better condi
tion.
"Hay Is fair quality and yields satis;factory. Many clover fields have an abundance of white-top. "Conditions have been very favorable for tobacco with the acreage considerably increased in the burley district. "The condition of all fruit crops conttmies good in all sections of the state. Blackberries and raspberries are now coming to market. The quality is exceptionally good.
Farm Federation
A permanent grain committee com-
posed of one representative from each of the 10 districts of the Indiana Federation of Farmers' associations, to work in conjunction with officers of the state association, is to be the newest department of the parent body. The formation of such a committee is the outgrowth of a meeting of grain producers held at Indianapolis during the last week, which brought representatives here from practclcally every county in the state. John G. Brown, of Monon. presided at the session, at which car shortage problems, the lack of coal for the threshing season, and many other questions, including the financing of the wheat r.nd oats crop, were discussed by the farmers. Several recognized authorities on banking, coal, elevator and grain problems addressed the producers, in addition to two members of the Public Sedvice commission. The permanent grain committee Is to be formed along the lines of the permanent live stock committee of the federation, the members to be elected at district meetings. The temporary committee to handle the situa-

The Farm and the Farmer BY WILLIAM R. SANBORN
Oran B. Caskey, living on the Salisbury road, says he has been having a strenuous time. He has a whole lot of wheat, which he began cutting on Friday. The rain on Saturday kept him out of it, and on Monday he took a shot at his hay. The rain on Tuesday morning tied tip the whole works. Just as it did for more than a thousand other Wayne farmers. His son, Ray, eald Tuesday, that In a trip around Winchester on Sunday not a single wheat field showed a shock of grain. Will Collins, Just west of Richmond on the National road, got well started with his harvesting on Monday and "started" tells the whole story until both fields are dry once more. W. A. Duffield, one of the large wheat growers in the New Madison district. Is one of the quite numerous Preble county farmers who are harvesting with tractors this season. Morgan LaMotte, living southeast of Centerville. has 25 acres of wheat
which, weather permitting, he will
commence cutting on Tuesday. "Am not looking for anything like a banner crop," said he, "for while there is some good wheat in my field there are too many thin spots to make a good general average." Mr. LaMotte has a

STAYED OFF THE EARTH WHOLE DAT:
Remove all dead wood as it appears in trees and shrubs. If you haven't planted any late potatoes, there is yet time, if it is done at once. Late planted potatoes escape
the early ravages of the potato bug
and the green lice that sometimes in
fest the early crop. Rural New Yorker is a favorite, large, heavy yielding, late potato.
Don't give up the fight with the weeds in your garden. The frequent rains, so beneficial to the crops, have also made the weeds unusually thrifty. Keep the upper hand of them and soon the hot, dry weather will come to your assistance and the weeds will give up the fight for the summer.
Examine the under side of the leaves of your toamto and potato plants. Green lice are again infesting theee crops in the state, as they did during the war. Spraying with nico
tine sulphate or "Black Leaf No. 440," two teaspoonsful to a gallon of water, is the favorite remedy.

WHEAT MIDGE DAMAGES
QROWING INDIANA CROP The wheat midge, frequently called
"red weevil," has been found in many
parts of the state during the last few
weeks, and threatens to become al
most as dangerous to the wheat crop
as the Hessian fly. according to a statement made at Purdue university. The insect attacks the young wheat grain, sucks the juice from it and causes the kernel to shrivel, although damage ceases when the kernel ripens, according to Prof. A. T. Wianclao, head cf the soils and crops department. The best remedy known against it is deep fall plowing of wheat stubble land to bury the insect in the pupa stage.
Rotation of crops so that wheat will never follow wheat on the same field vv ill help to avoid propagation of wheat midge. About the only other way to deal with it is to quit growing wheat for a year or two.
On of the outstanding features of
the recent primary election in Minne-unf-a. Tvaa the defeat of ReDresentative
Andrew J. Volstead in the seventh con
gressional district. Mr. Volstead had made a good record in congress and had become some
thing or a national figure because of the fact that the federal prohibition enforcement law bears his name, and for this reason there appeared to be no doubt of his re-nomtnation b y the voters of his district, and the news that he had gone down to defeat came as a great surprise to
REV. 0. J. KVALE at the state capital. His successful opponent, O. J. Kvale, is pastor of the Norwegian Lutheran church at Benson, Minn. He is 42 years old and a native of Wisconsin, in which state he was ordained a minister of the gospel twenty-six years ago. He is married and has three sons, two- of whom served with the AmpHoan forces durintr the world war.
Mr. Kvale is an ardent prohibitionist, and has been an opponent of the sa
loon ever since his ordination.
Thnne-h listed as a Republican, he
pntered the congressional race with
the indorsement of the Non Partisan
league and had the support of that organizaion in his campaign.
E. E. RICE, GARDEN SUPERVISOR. Be careful about artificial watering. Natural soil moisture is preferred if you can save it. If watering must be done soak the ground thoroughly and after soil is dry cultivate it. Look over all trees for bark scars.
Cut back to live bark and paint wuu XXX asphaltum. Remove any stubs appearing from improper pruning.
Climbing roses should be pruned after they have flowered. Remove a few of the old shoots and train the young and more vigorous ones to take their place. Keep them within bounds.
Weeds as they appear In the lawn are very conspicuous, and should be removed.
Spray roses with arsenate of lead if infested with rose beetles. Use nicotine sulphate if aphis are present. Look over shade trees for caterpillars. If present spray with arsenate of lead. Band trees with three tanglefoot to stop migration of caterpillars up the trunk. Cultivate shrubbery beds. Edge up lown generally as it approaches beds.
STORM DOES MUCH DAMAGE IN PUTNAM CO. FIELDS GREEXCASTLE, Ind., July 6. A storm which swept over the eastern part of Putnam county did a great deal of damage. Hail stones as large as walnuts riddled corn, wheat and
oats fields in a strip about one-half
mile wide and a mile long, east of Fillmore, six miles from here. Corn fields on the farms of Jesse
Coffin, Frank White and Mrs. Ella
Cline were completely riddled. A wheat field on the farm of Charles
Knether was cut to pieces and blown
flat to the ground.

Required in Jiffy-Jell Fruit Desserts
Sugar is scarce and high, yet now is the time for rich, fruity desserts. The solution is Jiffy-Jell. Serve it alone with its realfruit flavors, or mix in fresh fruit if you wish. Jiffy-Jell comes readysweetened. It comes acidulated with lemon or grape acid. Simply add boiling water, as per directions, and let cool. Then you have a fruit dessert rich in real-fruit essence. Jiffy-Jell flavors are not artificial. They are condensed fruit juices in liquid form, in bottles. There's a vial in each package. They are rich in frnit, for much ripe fruit-juice is condensed to flavor each dessert.
Mix in fresh fruit if you wish, but Jiffy-Jell itself has fruit essence in abundance. To make salad jell, use lime-fruit flavor, tart and green. Use mint for mint-jell to be served with meats.

A Snug Bearing Fit Through All Temperatures
IN motor cars of conventional design the bearings are backed with bronze. And bronze and aluminum, under atmospheric changes, expand and contract more rapidly than steel. Thus in the motor car of common design, winter temperatures cause the aluminum crankcase and bronze bearing backs to contract more than the crankshaft of steel. The result is a "pinching" of bearings and difficulty in starting.
In the new series Marmon the bearings are backed with cast iron. And cast iron varies almost exactly as the crankshaft. Thus a uniform bearing clearance is maintained through all ranges of temperature and engine speed. Having this uniform rate of expansion and sufficient structural strength to resist the binding tendency of the aluminum, Marmon bearings insure a snug fit at all temperatures.
We shall be glad io explain other features of the new Marmon Series 34- and to demonstrate its extraordinary riding qualities
