INDIANAPOLIS, November Two or
three weeks ago reports began circulating
that winter wheat in this State had joint.
ed from overgrowth superinduced by the
unusual warm weather in October. The
reports were SO persistent that one Of the
large reaper manufacturers sent an agent
to personally inspect the matter, he going
over the ground in a buggy. A letter was
received to-day from him to the Indiana
Farmer, from which the followingis an ex.
tract: II have taken considerable pains
during the past two weeks in my travels
to find out all could. I have gone into
fields and examined them closely. From
such examinations ! have no fears as 10
overgrowth, and feel sure that Indiana
never had at this time OF the year such a
prospect for winter wheat as now" This
report is from an entirely reliable source.
Supt, LoCkhart, Of the State Board OF Agri.
culture, Of Elkhart Co., says the prospect in
Northern Indiana was never finer. One
OF the editors OF the Farmer travelled last
week over the Southern part OF the State,
and says that, while wheat is rank, owing
to warm weather, the injuries from tly,
which have been reported from that sec
ton, amount to nothing, and will not
affect the general average. Wheat has
been put in with more care this fall, and
it may be relied on that the prospects now
are for a full yield. Some farmers have
turned sheep in their wheat fields to keep
back its growth, but no danger OF jointing
before spring is apprehended. Advices to
our grain men here are uniformly ola good
crop, although wheat will be sCarcer in
the market next June than last June, be-
cause no wheat is now in first hands. Il
has been all marketed. Farmers have not
carried any grain over.

CHANGERS AS OFFICE HOLDERS.

What is there. we should like to ask, in
the grange ritual, or the grange ceremony,
or in the innermost workings of the organs
cation, which units and %disqualifics a men-
Der from holding office-or perhaps we
should have asked, what Is there in being
an honest, conscientious and faithful officer
that spoils the granger? Why should an
Odd Fellow or Freemason or a member Of
any other order not have as much right to
aspire to office as q man outside the gates ?
And vet the lecturer OF the national grange
in his report to that body, recently in ses-
zion, takes it upon himself to condemn, in
no gentle terms, the practice Of tificehold-
ing. Il seems to us that, to Use mild LAM
guage, he must he much out of place as adj
wiser Of such a constituency as the great
membership OF the granpe throughout the
United States forms. Admitted that the
grange is in no sense a political organiza-
ton. and that he who becomes a member
for the sole pnpose of furthering his WI
selfish ends is unworthy Of confidence, yet
how are the agriculturists to protect and
foster their interests except through repre-
sentatiyes in the legislature and in congress.
Further, we believe that it is clearly within
the scope and legitimate purposes Of every
subordinate grange in the country to con-
sider in their sessions public measures and
discuss the science of government. We all
know too little about government and about
principles Of political economy. and the
study is left too much to the legal fraterni-
ty. We do not mean to infer that partisan
politics should be allowed to enter the
grange portals. or that ITS members should
in any manner be bound to support n of
their own number Tor office !; but We do say

BUSINESS POLICY OF THE GRANGE,

Henry G. Carey, in his principles of
Social Science," demonstrates with all the
force of fact and argument, the necessity of
bringing into near proximity the producer
and consumer, in order to secure individual
and public prosperity. Those nations which
send tarthest tor the comforts and necessa-
ries Of life, permitting their WI domestic
products to be taken away, worked over and
then returned by foreigners, must be crush
ed under the iron heels of carriers and mid
dle-men. The grange has adopted Mr..
Carey's warnings, and is laboring to press
into practice his philosophy. 1t is endea-
voring to bring into the nearest possible
conjunction the producer and the manufac-
turer. 1t wants the flour mill to spring up
by the side of the wheat-fields, the iron
foundry by the side Of the slnelting-furnace
the cotton, wooden and other factories on
the ground where the raw materials are
produced. This is the true granger" pol
icy, and to carry it into effect is the aim of
all sagacious members of the order. They
wish the man who does the work to receive
the benefit of his labor, whether in the field
or shop.

Giants In Those Days and These.

Editors BaltinaoreGn :: The Bible men
lions several races of giants, as the Reps
haims, the Anakims, the Enims, the
Zonzonims, and others. Profane histo-
rians also mentions giants; they gave
seven feet to Hercules, their first hero,
and in our days we have seen men eight
feet high. The giant who was shown
in Rouen, in 1875, measured eight feet
some inches. The Emperor Maximin
was of that size. Shenkius and Platerus,
physicians of the last century, saw sew
eral of that stature and Goropius saw
girl who was ten feet high. The body
of Orestes, according to the Greeks, was
eleven feet and half the giant Galbara,
brought from Arabia to Rome, under
Claudius Caesar, was near ten feet; and
the bones of Secondilla and Pufio, the
keepers of the gardens of Sallust, were
but six inches shorter.
Funnam, Scotchman, who lived in
the time of Eugene the Second, King of
Scotland. measured eleven feet and a
half; and Jacob lie Marie, in his voyage
to the Straits of Magellan, reports that
on the 18th of December, 1915, they
found at Port Desire, several graves COW
ity to remove the stones, they discover
feet long.
The Chevalier Scory, in his voyage to
the Peak of Teneriffe, says that they
found, in one of the sepulchral caves of
that mountain, the head of a Gaunche,
which had eighty teeth, and that the
body was not less than fifteen feet long.
| The giant Ferragus, slain by Orlando,
nephew of Charlemagne, was eighteen
feet high.
Rioland, celebrated anatomist, who
wrote in 1914, says that some years be-
fore, there was to be seen in the suburbs
of st. German, the tomb of the giant
Isoret, who was twenty feet high.
| In Rouen, in 1909, in digging the
bitches near the Dominicans, they found
a stone tomb containing skeleton
whose skull held a bushel of corn, and
whose shin-b bone reached up to the gir-
die of the tallest man there. being about
four feet long, and consequently the
body must have been seventeen or eigh-
teen feet high. Upon the tomb was a
plate of copper, wherein was engraved :
SIN this tomb lies the noble and puis-
SAINT Lord, the Chevalier Ricon de Val.
lemont, and his bones" Platerius, a
famous physician, declares that he saw
at Lucerne, the true human bones Of q
subject, which must have been at least
nineteen feet high. Valence, in Dau-
phine, boasts of possessing the bones OF
the giant Bucart. tyrant of the Vivarais,
who was slain by an arrow blythe Count
de Cabillon, his vassal. The Domini-
cans had a part of the shin-bone with
the articulation of the knee, and his
figure painted in fresco, with an inscrip.
ton showing that this giant was twenty.
two and half feet high, and that his
bones were found in 1705, near the banks
of the Morderi, little river at the foot
of the mountain of Crussol, upon which,
tradition says, the giant dwelt.

A Hint to Workingmen.

The honest workingmen of the coun-
try, many of whom have large and in
creasing families to support, have been
the chief suffers from the great financial
pressure under which we have labored
for the past few years. Diminished
wages have not been atten ded by a cor.
responding diminution in price of eve
rything which the workingmanne needs.
Rents, fuel, food, and clothing are cheap
er, but these do not constitute all his ne
cessities. 1t is sometimes necessary fol
him to employ a lawyer or physician,
yet the fee rates of physicians and law
years are as high as they werein "fush''
times. Yet cheap medicines are as nee.
essary as cheap rents or fuel. Cheap
medicines are not necessarily poor
medicines. It must be obvious to ev.
cry intelligent person, that medicines
compounded and put up at wholesale
can be sold at much lower rates than
when retailed from the DOCTORS pill bags.
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
and Pleasant Purgative Pellets have
completely restored persons who had
spent hundreds of dollars in vainly seek
ing relief from private practitioners, and
all at very slight expenditure.

COUNTRY SOCIAL L1FE.-Country
folks are in general so occupied with
affairs that they have not time to dis
cover how lonesome they really are.
So far as this is concerned we think it is
misfortune. We are too busy. We
take few or no holidays. There is no
reason why those who pillow the soil or
whose talk is of bullocks" should not
experience the refnements which are
the results of formal social life.
In business, at bargains. in pursuit of
dollars no man is seen at his BEST He
is thorny, with his back as the porcu-
pine might be at his business. Let one
doff his working clothes and enter a
room full of his neighbors, men, women,
young men and maidens, and he is a
man of another kind. He naturally
falls into the ways of intuitive kind
ness, which is really the truest polite
ness the doing to his companions what
he would that they should do to him.
He lets himself out to please, and, after
an evening spent in social converse, he
retires with rough corners and asperi-
ties toned down. For few days the
influences remain. 1t would be perma-
nent, if it could be reinforced now and
then, and the good results would be
most agreeable and useful.

LAMMING OF THE PILGRIM.

The breaking waves dashed high
On q stern and rock-bound pier,
AS old man Sprague with flashing eye
And loaded gun drew near.
Not as the conquerors came
With the trumpet's brazen blare,
But to vindicate fair fame
He fetched his Calling there.
Lord Roscoe saw the gun
With Sprague at the business end,
And he half suspected fun;
And he cried, "What will We, friend?"
And the irate Sprague replied,
II have brought my weapon rust
And I'll pepper your lord1y hide
Ifyou don't get up and dust
And he didn't stop to talk,
Nor tarried to explain
He had business in New York,
And he skipped on the first through train
Aye, call it holy ground,
With its seaside damp and gloom
He left behind what he never found,
A Presidential boom.

WHAT TO DO WITH MUTILATED
MoNEY.-Persons are frequently at a
loss>t to know what to do with mutilated
money. A circular from the treasury
department just received gives import
ant information in relation to this mat
ter. Among other information is the
following: United States notes mutilat-
ed not to the extent of one-tenth, and
fractional notes rutilated not to the
extent OF one fifth, are redeemable at
full face value. United States notes
mutilated to the extent of one tenth,
but not two tenths, are redeemable at
nine-tenths of full face value; two
tenths, but not three-tenths, at eight
tenths of their full face value; three
tenths, but not four-tenths, at seven
tentbs of their full face value; four
tenths, but not one half, at six-tenths of
their face value. Fragments of notes,
each constituting clearly one-half, are
redeemable at one-half the full face
value of such whole notes. Fragments
less than half are redeemed only when
accompanied by an affidavit, except
when they together constitute more
than one-half note, and it appears
either from the notes themselves or
from an affidavit made in conformity to
the following paragraph, that they are
actually parts of one original note.
Notes mutilated as described above,
accompanied by an affidavit from the
owner and from such other persons as
have kno Wedge of the facts, that the
missing portions have been totally de-
stroyed, are, if the proof furnished is
satisfactory, redeemed at the full face
value of such whole notes. The affida-.
Wit must state the cause and manner of
the mutilation. and must be sworn and
subscribed to before an officer qualified
to administer oaths, who must afiix his
official seal thereto, and the character of
the affiants must be certified to be good
by magistrate or other public officer.
The treasurer will exercise such dis
cret1on under this regulation as may
seem to him needful to protect the Uni
ted States from fraud. Unredeemed
fragments are rejected and returned
notes are branded and re-
turned,
