BREEDERS FORECAST GREAT POSSIBILITIES FROM COMING SHOW
Expectation! of the live stock show to be held at Jackson park Sept. 14 and 15 are mounting among Wayne county residents as the time draws nearer. Farmers of the county are welcoming this first evidence of an annual exhibit which may possibly grow into a county fair, and. although it is realized that, with the time of preparation so short, no very extensive affair can be staged, much interest is shown. Liberal commendation is being granted, not only by breeders who
will benefit directly, but also by other
farmers who have been quick to see
the advantage to the industry of such
an institution in Wayne county, and
by the towns which are Interested in ihe county welfare. To this effect, tentative promises have been made by fair officials of Dublin, where successful fairs have been held this year and the year preceding, that they will refrain from promoting a fair hereafter, which might be in competition with the county event, and will co-operate in supporting the Jackson park show instead. Will Build Barns Plans of the officials of the Wayne
County Breeders' association, which initiated and is promoting the live
stock show, include erection of permanent barns before next year.
Sufficient water can be found on the grounds together with suitable sites for buildings, to make a very desirable
fhow ground they state. Transportation is provided by the interurban which runs past the park, while the National highway also makes it easy of access, and the central location of the park has been approvingly mentioned by citizens in every part of the county. Probably more general interest i3 being shown in the pig club show than in any other single event. Four silver cups donated by The Palladium, are to be awarded in this show, to the winners In each of the breed classes, the Poland China, the Chester White, the Duroc Jersey, and the Spotted Poland China. There are over 50 pig club members
in the county, every one with expecta
tions of winning a place, and many with pigs so nearly alike in their ex
cellencies that experienced hog breed
ers say it will be a difficult matter in many cases to render decision between them. Dolan Starts Club The pig club was started under the direction of County Agent J. L. Dolan in May, with the support of the breed associations of the county, and on May 28, the pigs were distributed to the children, who had asembled in Centerville. The pigs were drawn by lot, in order that every member misht have an equal chance. Pigs were weighed carefully and recorded before being delivered to their new owners in May, and the children have kept careful records of weights and of the kinds and amounts of feed given since that time. It was emphasized at the time, and
in later instruction, that the pigs were to be grown out or stock, instead or being fattened, and most members have followed the advice faithfully. This good care, together with the Found foundation of noted blood lines, has, according to well known breeders, resulted in a number of unusually de-

INDIANA OATS CROP POOREST EVER RAISED SAYS STATE REPORT
The condition of Indiana corn, Sep
tember 1 was considerably better than reported for the previous month, showing a gain of approximately 26,000,000 bushels and ail other growing crops except white potatoes, also show a decided improvement over last month, according to the monthly report of the co-operative crop reporting service issued today. The report follows: The corn condition continues spotted throughout the statewide variations existing even in the same counties with the average figure at 80 per cent of normal on Sept. 1. This is an increase of 12 points over last month and indicates a production of 163,620,000 bushels, compared with 137,532,000 bushels shown for August and 184,072,000 bushels harvested last year. Rains Help Corn. Good rains and cooler weather during August was of great benefit to the late planted corn and are now keeping it from ripening. Practically all the
early planted corn will be out of the
way of frost by the middle of the
month. There are more barren stalks
from which a production of 45,675,000 bushels is Indicated. The forecast
for August was 45.590,000 bushels and last year's harvest amounted to 76.-
875,000 bushels. Many fields were not
cut and eome that were cut werfe put in the barn to be used as a hay crop. Barley Is Poor Crop Barley was another poor rop,' the condition at time of harvest being 60 per cent of normal, from which a production of 1,387,000 bushels is indi
cated. Last year's crop amounted to
2,025,000 bushels.
The condition of buckwheat in In
diana Sept, 1 was 80 per cent of nor
mal and is one point over last month's
report From this figure 149,000 bushels are indicated, compared with 200,000 bushels harvested last year. The condition of white potatoes shows but little improvement over last month, being 37 per cent of normal on Sept. 1. This would indicate a crop of 3,324,000 bushels, compared with 7,680,000 bushels harvested last year. Indiana sweet potatoes show a considerable improvement over last month and a production of "04,000
bushels is now indicated, compared with 360,000 bushels harvested last year. Tobacco shows a splendid improvement over last month and indicates a crop of 10,577,000 pounds on a con
dition figure Sept. 1, of 72 per cent of normal, compared with IS.000,000 pounds harvested last year. Tame Hay Yield Low The average yield of tame hay this year probably was the lowest ever harvested in the state, being 1.08 tons per acre, which indicates a crop of only 2,262,000 tons, compared with 2, S 44,000 tons harvested last year. Wild hay had an average yield of 1.07 tons per acre and a crop of 26,000 tons is indicated, compared with 30,000 tons harvested last year. i The number of hogs on Indiana
farms for fattening is only slightly j
less than the number a year ago, being 3,226,000, compared with 3,292,000 last year.
The condition of apples Sept. 1 was j
only is per cent of normal, indicating
a total crop for the state of 1,571,000 j
bushels. Last year the crop amounted to 6,097,000 bushels. . Peaches show only five per cent of a normal production, and pears 14 per cent. Clover Acreage Low The clover seed acreage and con-
Idition are far below normal in the
state, and a crop of only 84,000 bushels is indicated by the Sept. 1 condition, which is hardly enough to reseed the Indiana farms. All truck crops show some improvement over last month, and melons
made almost a full crop. t The fly-free dates for seeding winter wheat in Indiana begins Sept. 23' on the northern border, progressing) southward at the rate of " about 16 miles a day until the southern border; is reached about Oct 8. Every farmer should familiarize himself with the! date for his locality and do his sowing accordingly, as one field put in ahead of time may infect the entire ! neighborhood. A complete fertilizer of about 200 pounds to the acre, to-!
gether with good, clean seed, is rec
ommended for best results. A list of
inspeciea ana cerunea seea or certain varieties can be secured from county agents or the Purdue Experiment station.

time of harvest is given at 40 per cent of normal, which indicates a production of approximately 40.000 bushels.
Last year's estimate for the state was 140,000 bushels. The acreage this year is much smaller than last year and considerable of this year's acreage was abandoned. The oats crop probably was the poorest ever produced in the state,

THAT joyful day of relief is here for the woman who has suffered discomfort from her front steel gouging in at the top. To her the KABO Comfort Top Corset is, indeed, a boon. She does not want a topless corset because she wants her back properly supported. She's glad somebody thought of making a corset like the Kabo Comfort Top, which has a soft, pliable extension above the waist line in front, fastened with three hooks and eyes like a brassiere. It gives body freedom and comfort whether sitting, standing or stooping Best of all, it fully demonstrates that style need not be sacrificed for absolute corset comfort.
