Condition of All Crops, Except Oats, Better
than for Yeara-Increased Acreage of Corn.
WASHINGTON, July 10.-The July report
of the Department Of Agriculture makes
the average, as compared with breadth
harvested last year of corn, 1858; potatoes.
1923; tobacco, 1926. Condition of corn.
92.S; winter wheat. 96.2; spring wheat. al;
rye. $50; oats, $40; barley, 900; potatoes,
95.3; tobacco, OIL.
The heavy increase In corn acreage 10
more apparent than real. The comparison
is with the breadth harvested last year,
when there was a loss of 5000, 600 acres by
abandonment on account of drought. The
crop is late in all sections on account Of
drought and ~unfavorable conditions at the
May, but June was warm, with abundant
moisture, and the crop was coming
forw ard rapidly on July l. In
the Ohio and upper Mississippi
was especially gratifying. but in Kansas
and Nebraska considerable damage result
ed from excessive rainfall In many dis
tricts the June rains prevented proper
working, leaving fields foul, but a few days
of sunshine will remedy this. The general
average is a fraction below that of 1855 and
1890. N slightly above that of 1889. The
averages of the surplus States are: Ohio,
98; Indiana, 95; Illinois. 96: Iowa, 81; Mis-
souri,, IS; Kansas. 81. Nebraska, 80.
The condition of winter wheat IS re-
turned practically the same as II une
The crop is harvested. except in it's more
northern habitat, with q cOnditi on the
highest reported since 1879, with one ex-
ceptIOn. So far as can be judg ed at the
time of harvest the berry is reported gener-
ally plump and in keeping with the heavy
straw, but occasional mention is made of
short heads. The averages of the princi-
pal States are: Pennsylvania, 9S; Ohio. 81;
Michigan. SO; Indiana. 80; Illinois, IS: Mis-
souri,. 9S: Kansas. "a: California. IS.
The condition of spring wheat improved
during June, the advance being in Mime
sofa and the DakOtas. where the month
was exceptionally favorable. State aver
ages are: Wisconsin. "a: Minnesota, 90;
Iowa, 90; Nebraska 90; North Dakota, 9S;
South Dakota, 81; Washington, 9S.
Oats have improved during the month,
but the general average is the lowest re-
ported since 1879, except in 1887 and last
year. when aJuly condition of Sic was fol-
lowed by a practical failure of the crop.
The first return of potatoes shows con-
dition higher han the average of recent
years. while that of tobacco Is higher than
in any year since 1886 The fruit prospect
is very hattering In New England and the
North Atlantic States, and west of the
Missouri river to the Pacific coast.
A special cable from the European agent
indicates a heavy deficiency in the Euro
pean rye crop.

Illinois Antitrust LAW.

CHICAGO, July 10.-A law passed by the
State Legislature which went into effect
July /, inflicts heavy penalties for partici-
pating in trusts and combinations. and pro.
vides punishment for purchasers as well as
sellers of articles whose price is controlled
by agreements. Very many of the articles
dealt In by grocers are SO controlled, the
wholesalers contracting with the manu-
facturers not to sell below the card rates.
This has been rather irksOme to the large
dealers here, and they have taken the OPP
portunity to notify the manufacturers that
under tho law they can no longer be bound
by the agreemsnt. Whether the result will
be a disturbance in values remains to be

CHARLESTON, 8. c., July 10.-President
J.. w. Stokes. of the South Carolina Farm
ers' Alliance has issued his ultimatum in
regard to the joint debate on the sub-treas-
and National Alliance Lecturer Terrell.
HIS decision that the debate should be-
held in secret session at the meeting of the
State Alliance is a great disappointment to
non-alliance men. and very particularly SO
to Governor Tillman. As the sub-treasury
question is one in which the public gener-
ally is interested Tillman's friends say that
the debate should be open and they con-
slider the proclamation of President Stokes
as q partial back-down on the part of Lect-
urer Terrell In advance. Governor Till
man will be at q great disadvantage be-
fore the State Alliance, an he will be adj

to begin with, hostile to him.

Distribution of the Country's Population In
Accordance with Altitude.


Accordance with Altitude.
WASHINGTON. July 1O.-The Census
Bureau has issued a bulletin on the dis
tribution of population in accordance with
altitude. 1t appears that in the area below
500 feet is included nearly all that part of
the population which is engaged in manu-
featuring and in the foreign commerce of
the country. and most of that engaged in
the culture of cotton, rice and sugar. The
interval between 500 and 1900 feet COM
prises the greater part of the prairie States
and the reproducing States of the
Northwest. East of the ninety eighth me-
ridlsn. 1.5OO feet is practically the upper
limit of population. all the country lying
above that elevation being mountainous.
The population between 1900 and 5000 feet
il found mainly on the slope of the great
Western plains. In this region the belt be-
tween 1900 and 5000 feet is almost every

Free ROM all impurity
Royal Baking Powder

Is the only baking powder yet found by chemical
analysis to be free from al impurities and absolutely
pure. This perfect purity results from the exclusive
use of cream of tartar specially refined and prepared
by patent processes which totally remove all the tar
trate of lime. The cost of this chemically pure cream
of tartar is much greater than any other, and it is
used in no baking powder except the Royal"
Dr.. Edward G. Love, formerly analytical chemist for the
US Government, who made the analyses for the New York
State Board of Health in their investigation of baking pow
ders, says of the purity and whoesomeness of the " Royal:
