There are some new things in airships, Maxim, the Yankee in England, says he is nearly ready for the last grand test with his air traveller. He has spent 50,OOO on the machine. Its fuel will be gasoline. This will generate steam, which will drive the engines and screws. When equipped with fuel, water, etc., the aviator weighs 5,i00 pounds, and Mir. Maxim believes he can make it lift itself by pressure of the air upon the under side of inclined planes. Another idea is that of the French aeronaut who will soon attempt to cross Africa in a machine of the balloon type. He ex- poets to generate as he goes the hydrogen gas to hold the balloon in air. This Frenchman is Professor Lecomte, of the Paris school of aerostation, and the chances are that Professor Lecomte's friends will bid him an eternal farewell when he starts on that voyage across Africa.

PowELL's IDEA COLLAPSED.

The Santa Fe New Msricda calls at tention to the fact that there is q west ern man at the helm in the general lend office who seems to understand his business.
 Commissioner Carter, with the ap- proval of Secretary Noble, has just issued an order that is of significant interest to the people of the west. The water storage reservoir sites which Major Powell and his geological survey hangers-on so elaborately mapped out and "reserved' for the use of the gov ernment in Arizona, Colorado, Wyom- ing, Dakota, New Mexico and elsewhere, have been ordered restored to the public domain and thrown open for entry to the home seeker. This is quite right.
 Major Pow ell's scheme to. expend milhons of th- National funds in life time job is thus pretty .efectually nipped. The people of the arid region have never asked the government to expend cent toward the construction of reservoirs, as Powell succeeded Tn making number of tenderioot con gressmen think. They did ask for surveys and data, but Mr. Powell saw a good thing in it for himself and friends, and he carried the "reserving" process too far, quite too far.
 What the people now ask is that the arid lands be ceded to the states and territories for reclamation. They may succeed in securing compliance with this demand, but whether they do or not it is gratifying 10 note this very ex- cellent indication that the Powell idea has collapsed for all time.

The Year of Great Crops.

1t is to be hoped there is yet many an- other year like it before the people of the United States. but as far as we have gone 1891 stands on record as the all- round year of the greatest crops ever produced in this republic. As an in stance it may be mentioned that from an area covering six counties in the state of Ohio the farmers will receive from their tobacco crop alone S1 ,5OO,O 900.
 Of course the great crops are wheat, corn and cotton. The shortage of wheat in Europe and India has happened as if purposely to afford a fine market to American farmers for the greatest crop in their history. While the price for wheat has not touched the high figure universally expected for it, it is suffi- ciently good to pay off many mortgage and to amount for the whole country to $500, 900, 900. This is estimating the average price at one dollar a bushel, as the crop will reach half billion bush els. The reciprocity treaties with Brazil, the Spanish West Indies and San Domingo will afford to our farmers a better wheat market than they ever had before on their own continent. Brazil cannot raise wheat at all and is almost altogether dependent on us.
 As to corn, there will be not less than 2,0O0, 900 bushels. At fifty cents bushel this will amount to $1 ,O00, ,00O, 900 in the pockets of American farmers. When in the history of nations were ever agriculturists so favored before? The corn, however, will not be shipped abroad to any overwhelming extent. We use the bulk of it at home to feed stock and to make into whisky and corn starch. Last years crop was only half of what this years will be, consequently during the summer months of the present season corn fed beef was scarce in the markets Butit will now be plentiful, while the corn fed pork will be driven to market from the overfowing farms by the hun dred thousand.
 Of cotton there will be in the neigh borhood of 7,25O, ,0OO bales. This will be less than the crop of last year, which was s,00O,0o0 bales, but greater than the yield of 1889, 7,O17,707 bales, which up to that time had been the greatest the cotton states had produced. While the crop this year is not so great as last the price will be better.
 Oats are expected to return $250, ,000,- 900, and the total value of the farm crops will certainly not be less than s2,- 900 900, ,000 on the whole bringing to the farmers nearly half billion more dol lars than they had last year. The price of beef cattle is also better than it was last year For fruit of nearly every kind there never was such year of abun- dance known. Farmers are accused of being chronic croakers, but it will be interesting to know what they will have to complain of this fall.

This IS the query per What is petually on your little
 boys lips. And he is It Fora no worse than the big
 ger, older, balder-head- ed boys. Life is an interrogation point. "What is it for?" we con tinually cry from the cradle to the grave. So with this little introduc- tory sermon we turn and ask: What is AUGUST FLOWER FOR }" As easily answered as asked: It is for Dys- pepsia. It is a special remedy for the Stomach and Liver. Nothing more than this; but this brimful. We believe August Flower cures Dyspepsia. We know it will. We have reasons for knowingi it. Twenty years ago it started in small country town. To-day it has an honored place in every city and country store, possesses one of the largest manu- featuring plants in the country and sells everywhere. Why is this ? The reason is as simple as a child's thought. It is honest, does one thing, and does it right along-it cures Dyspepsia, q G. G. GREEN, Sole Man'fr, WoOdbuy,NJ.
