skies. Millions in the populous Great Li kes and Missouri and Ohio Valley regions sweltered in the humid heat. Even New York city and Boston felt its worst effects. Only a few localities favored by thundershowers escaped. Only relief in sight the next two days was from local thundershowers forecast for Missouri, Illinois, Indiara. New York, Ohio, West Virginia, Pennsylvania, Kentucky and New

HOG PRICES SLIP 15 CENTS AFTER REACHING TOP OF 813
INDIANAPOLIS, July 8 (UP)— Hog prices at thn Indianapolis Union Stockyards today slipped 15 cents lower alter reaching a top of $13 yesterday, the highest level established here in more than nine years. Today’s moderate decline was attributed to increased receipts and also because the market was out of proportion in price range with other centers. It reduced the top to $12.85, only 5 cents lower than the previous high mark of $12.90 reached on Sept. 19, 1928. The quarter advance in prices yesterday was supported by a large packing demand in face of extremely light receipts. Hog prices reached an all-time low here in January, 1933, when only $3.10 was paid per hundredweight.
Mrs. Ralph E. Stahlbush, Mishawaka, was drowned in St. Joseph river after he fell or jumped into four feet of water near Lincoln park. C. J.

CLOVERDALE MAN BURNED

Hunter was at work in a temporary building, where gasoline and oil used in machinery 1 on the U. S. road 40 improvement had been stored, when the gasolinq exploded. He was brought to Putnam County hospital.
The first advance stragglers of the army of “August flys” or the ordinary cicadas, have arrived in the vicinity of Greencastle and they have been tuning their fiddles for the approaching concert of strident sounds. These are the annual visitors, differing considerably from the seventeenyear “locusts,” or cicadas, which are not due here again for many years. However, these common ones have the same life-habits as those of the seventeen-year kind, and, when unusually numerous, their incisions on small twigs of certain trees, in which to lay their eggs, cause those twigs to die and fall to the ground, but the damage to the trees is not serious.
