CrOns I'm the Valley,

For three months we have ventured
weekly predictions upon the wheat CROP
but at no time have we had anything as
encouraging to write as now. The
straw, as we have said, is short, and the
stand, in consequence Of the severe wins
ter, is thin, but the heads are full, the
grain we'll developed, and the general
opinion is that the yield in this county
will be nearly as good as last season.
The yield on the lowlauds will be at
least equal to that of last year, and
some OF the upland farmers will produce
an average. Others will not make half
a crop, while some totally fail.
Harvest will commence this week in
earnest, and by the latter part Of the
next most of the wheat will be in shocks.
A good many crops will be threshed by
the first of July.-Shenaadoah Democrat,
June 20.

The Yellowstone Exploring Party.
OGDEN, June 24.-The United States
(Hayden) Yellowstone exploring party
who have been camped at this place
for some weeks past, leave here this
morning in two divisions for the unex-
plored region north. One party is
under Prof. F. V. Hayden, accompa-
MED by several topographers, mineral
ogists, geologists and an artist, and
leave for Fort Ellis by stage, where
they will file out with pack mules and
horses for the Great Fire Hole Basin
and the head waters of Yellowstone
river.
The other party is under the noted
explorer James Stevenson, accompanied
by some of the leading scientific artists
and correspondents in the country, and
who represent twenty different States.
They leave here with a wagon train,
going directly north to Fort Hail, where
they leave the wagons and provide
themselves with mules, to explore the
hitherto unexplored great water shed
region about the head waters Of the
Columbia, Missouri, Iowa and Colorado
rivers, known as the "Tetons." The
party consists of sixty men,
iorty of whom are professors and stu-
dents and the remainder hunters,
guides and teamsters. The party will
make thoroughly searching survey
and investigate the formation Of the
country and report its agricultural and
mineral resources. The party are in
the best health and spirits and antici-

The Wrong Man.

The Department OF Justice has for
some days past been engaged in ascer-
tanning the whereabouts of the person
alleged to have been abducted from
Canada in violation Of the extradition
treaty, and has at last received infor
nation that he was in the custody OF
the United States Marshal Of North
Carolina. 1t now appears that Detective
Hess had an extradition warrant for a
man named Avery, charged with VIOLA
ton OF the Ku-Klux Act, but that the
Canadian officials delivered up Braton,
who is charged with having committed
murder in that State. This Government
will send him back to Canada, and in-
demnify him for false arrest.

Why Pork Declines.

The Cincinnati Price Current says
"The large number of hogs coming
into the leading markets in the West
have depressing influence upon the
provision trade, and not only this, but
in this matter the trade is disappointed
because it was supposed by most, if moi
all engaged in the pork business, that
afterthe regular pork packing had been
ended, the country would have been
pretty we'll clear Of hogs; but, as the
sequel has shown, this was simply the
reverse of what was the case, and the
number of hogs then held by the farm
ers exceeded far that Of any previous
season. Thus, the receipts OF live and
dressed hogs at Chicago from March
4th to May Goth reach $40, ,llS-an in
crease over the corresponding period oil
last year of 276,572. The receipts al
Cincinnati from March 9th 10 MAY 25th
reach 165,0l7-an increase Of 1929 j
over the corresponding year. Here is
an increase OF rather over 100 per cent
for the time, not yet quite three months
the aggregate receipts at both places
being 657, 1885,"

o o'clock, near Newburg, this county, re-
sulting in the death Of VIM. Findley, a
dentist, residing in Island Creek town
ship. Mr.. Findley, after dinner, start

Boyd and a companion. They were a
short distance from the house OF Mr..
Findley's father, short distance from
Newburg, when the three sat down on
the hill to rest. Findley placed the
gun, a double barreled shot gun, down
the hill and held the muzzle between
his knees. 1t is supposed the hammers
struck a stone, causing one of the bar
rels to discharge the entire contents, a
large charge of shot, into the body OF
the unfortunate man. He sprang up
and exclaimed, my God" and fell
dead. One of his companions cried out,
"Will, are you hurt?' but received no
reply. Mr.. Findley was an estimable
young man, and the accident has
caused the most profound sorrow
throughout the neighborhood where he
was known.-SteubenviNe Herald.
