The Worlds Wheat Crop.


At no time IN many years has the
area OF wheat, which is suffering
from lack Of moisture, been so
extensive as it is to-day The cry
for rain is going up throughout all
of the wheat growing countries of
Europe. Moderate showers on Sat
urday in England broke the longest
continuous period of dry weather that
country has known in more than 20
years. There have been light rains
in France within a week past, but
not sufficient to stay the complaint
that crops are languishing from
drouth. Italy and Spain are as dry
as dust, and in both countries the
crops are IN imminent danger of COM
plete destruction. Italy has had no
rain for two months and the drouth
in Spain is still more protracted,
Dry weather prevails in Hungary,
Germany, Holland, Belgium and
Denmark, and while it is not beliey-
ed that the crops in those countries
have been materially damaged as yet
the situation is beginning to create
alarm.
Press dispatches from Southern
Russia denote that the wheat there
has been almost entirely destroyed
by the weather and the late frosts.
A disastrous drouth has just come
to an end in North African coun-
ties which export a few million
bushels of wheat annually to Europe.
There are complaints also in the
Argentine Republic where hasty
preparations are being made to SOW
the fields with spring wheat.
! The large surplus of supplies Of
wheat all over the world have pre-
vented any material advance in the
price of that cereal, as result of the
widespread and alarming drouth.
There is happily a sufficient stock
of wheat in this country and il
Europe to allay all fear of famine,
and the gravest condition to be ap
pretended is an advance in the
price of wheat which would impose
hardship upon the great body of
consumers.-K. G.. Star.

Remarkable Success.

The Davis Sewing Machine, man
ufactured by the Davis Sewing Ma
chine Company at Watertown. \.
Y. has fairly astonished it's inyen-
tor. manufacturers. and agents, in the
rapidity with which it has come to
the front as the favorite family sew
iug machine.
People have, for years, supposed
that no more improvement could be
made III this family friend but
that this was possible is abund-
antly proved by the New High Arm
Davis. They are in greater demand,
where their merits are know. than
any other sewing machine. They
are so easily understood; SO light
running; 50 sure to stay III perfect
order, aud so cheap, considering the
quality, that we want persons wishing
the very best sewing machine ever
made, to obtain a Davis" The
company fully warrants every ma
chine for five years-and well they
may, for the machine in all its parts
Is of such high grade of workman
ship that it cannot well get out of
order. A hard running machine will
eventually impair the constitution
of the strongest woman. A machine
that is often out of order; that is not
ready for use at all times when it is
wanted, is thing of neither value,
pleasure nor profit. Three fourths
of the time required in making a
garment is ordinarily consumed in
basting the work. No time is thus
wasted with this machiue, as, by the
use of the vertical feed, all manner
of sewing is done without basting.
If you buy Davis, you will have
a machine approxlmatiug perfection,
aud far more than this, no one need
ask.
Call and see the machine at Ben
nett, Wheeler Mere. store will con
vince you that all we have said OF
the Davis Sewing Machine is true to
the letter.

A Screw Loose Somewhere {.

He seemed to be all right when he
sat down at the table and the waiter
busted around getting him in shape
for his dinner while he studied the
bill of fare. He was rather unsteady,
possibly, but as he had not eaten
anything for eighteen hours that
was not surprising.
"Well, sir, what will you have?'
asked the waiter.
"Tock murtle soup and coiled
bodfsb," he replied, holding up the
bill.
The waiter was disturbed.
"What, sir," he asked.
''Tock mnrtle soup and coiled
bodish,' he repeated, and the wait
er snickered and went out,
He came back in few minutes
with the order and the guest took
up the bill again.
Bring me" he said slowly, ''some

some bibs of reef and hoiied bam,
pashed motatoes, pried farsnips,
prench feas, bima leans, and waiter,
wind her up with some pince mie,
pago sudding, ruts and naisins and
a eof of cuppie.'
This time the waiter was almost
thrown off his feet and be stared at
his customer in amazement.
The guest returned the stare in
hazy consciousness and shook bis
head slowly
Don't seem to sound right, does
it, be asked. I'm sure something
is wrong with it, but it looks that
| way on the bill. and I've got to eat
it or starve," and the waiter turned
away hesitatlngiy and moved toward
the kitchen.-Detroit Free Press.
