The Flour market is decidedly frmer, due to
further rise in wheat The latest crop reports are
very bad for winter wheat, and this one will
strengthen the market md cause higher prices at
an early day. The decrease in area and damage
done by 'winter-kilpg" seems to be- general in all
the winter wheat States with but one exception
that of Michigan. That STATE reports bu5 slight
decrease in acreage sown, and nter-killing
whatever or damage of other kind. With this one
exception The loss the wi1ter wheat States is the
greatest ever known and VIII prove serious blow

their wheat product. Sugar is more active and

free, accessories to 1t should be free also; but
this is idle reasoning. Perhaps Brother and
Sister Woodwork do not feel able to furnish
square meals of the size necessary to put
Howard county sinner in a fair way for
redemption. Perhaps the spiritual inhu-
ences of peanuts and lemonade. which
delicacies form a part of the refreshments
furnished, are of character not to be esti-
mated by the cash value set upon them.
There is no good reason why Sister and
Brother Woodwork should feed people and
get their souls into shape for salvation for
nothing and criticisms of the sort are unbe
coming. Let the bad men of Kokomo 60 to
camp-meeting and be fed with real and spr-
itual lemonade of the Woodwork brand and,
if it profit them. the evangelists ard the rest
of the community will give thanks.
