Not So Badly Damaged as Reported -
Prices OF Vegetables.
Tho anxiety accustomed by the reports OF
tho potato crop has been somewhat allnyed,
and tho outlook Is not as bad as was sup
posed. Tho receipts are fair, and buyers
who held OF ON account OF high prices are
purchasing readily. Southern stock Is not
up to tho average and In sorting shows
shrinkago OF about 25 per cent. Wisconsin
and Michigan Rose and Hebron are quoted
In Chicago at rs TO so cents per bushel,
Eastern Rose at 90 cents, and other varie-
ties IN proportion. Sweet potatoes have
dropped In price considerably as the result
OF a splendid crop. Jerseys now bring 1925
20 1915 per barrel, Baltimores $50, Illinois
$685. and kentucky red s. 10 81 25 This
Is a reduction OF over 81 per barrel during
the week. Packers of corn and tomatoes
claim to have done losing business during
the last three years. Small. canning fac
tories have been erected az
hundred places in that time, TO pack
these vegetables principally, although a
fair share of them put up "A per cent. OF
peas, string beans, squash. pumpkin. etc.
Tomatoes are fully 25 per cent higher than
In May, despite the fact that this Is the
harvest time for garden truck. In any
event prices Will average much higher In
1s00-'01 than for the season CT 1ss0-'00
That much is certain. Peas and beans are
also up, and the packing season has closed
with substantial advance ON these goods
that Is likely to be increased materially
when winter consumption begins.

Bicycle riders have been annoyed by
dogs running out from from houses and
swapping at the wheel and legs Of the
rider, says the London Telegraph A
number Of accidents have occurred from
this cause, and not a few men have been
bitten. 1t has been a problem with
many riders to discover a means OF eff
fectually driving away these dogs, but
until recently none has bten found. IL
remained for William Sidney Downs OF
Birmingham to solve the problem.
When starting on ride he carries
several big torpedoes, such as the boys
use on the Fourth of July. AS the dog
rushes up barking and swapping Mr..
Downs casts a torpedo directly under
tho animal. The explosion and the
sting of the sand with tic burn Of the
powder successfully cures the dog of the
desire to attack any moro wheels.

What Causes the Hot Blasts that Sweep
Over Kansas.

Some time ago Senator Plumb brought to
the attention OF the Signal Service Bureau
the phenomenon OF the hot winds that occa-
sionally sweep over Kansas, destroying or
damaging the vegetation. They occur ir-
regularly, and the theories OF their origin
are many and diverse. This year the winds
extended into Iowa, Nebraska, and Dakota.
Senator Plumb has been advised by Gen.
Greedy, Chief Of the Signal Service, that an
investigation into the causes which produce
the winds would be made, and an effort
made TO ascertain whether or not the dis
astrous effects Of their presence can be
averted
