Champaign county's crop prospects are
put down now as follows: Barley is said to
be the largest yield for a quarter of a CEN
tury. The wheat yield will be little
above the average. The heads are short,
but well filled, and the yield per acre will
be far in excess of last year. The oats crop
will be above the average and the acreage
is greater than for several years. The corn
looked slim up to the middle of last week,
but the rains of the past two or three days
have brought it up standing, and now
looks favorable for large yield. The po-
tatoe crop, in the vegetable line, promises
a larg + yield than for many years.

fused. The latter reported to the city edi

room, as he still refused to accede to the
owners request to at least permit an ex-
animation of the copy, the Herald man
compel him to disgorge. The address
