CLAYTON, April 23.-Oats have been badly
frost bitten and have not come up very wei
and the prospect for good crop is very poor
| think il would be a good idea for farmers
whose oats are badly injured to seed the
ground to Hungarian grass or millet, which
makes n splendid provender crop, and viii
come off in good time for them to seed tC
wheat in the fall. Potatoes that were planted
early in March do not seem Ia he making
much Roadway as | notice some that have
been in the ground for about5 weeks have not
so much as sprouted. l hear of some farm
ers who will have to plant their crop ovel
again as the first planting has rotted.
Our General Road Supervisor, Mr.. Mouls-
dale, was around last week inspecting
the roads of his district preparatory to max
ing an estimate of the cost of repairing them
to be submitted to the Commissioners. | un-
derstand the appropriations for the roads will
be very much less this year than usual. If
that is the case, there will not be much saved
in the end, for what is now a fifty cent mud
hole, if neglected. will probably be five dol
lar one next year, and of course the man who
mends the road this year will get the blame
for it, because he wasted the county money
and did not mend the road properly.

at his residence, near Harmony, early Wednes-
day morning, April Is, aged 81 years. His
death was caused by Bright's disease and

sidered an authority on agricultural matters

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications as they cannot reach the
diseased portion of the ear There is only one
way to cure Deafness, and that is by constitu-
tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets infiam-
ed you have rumblng sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely closed Deafness
is the result, and unless the Inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored to its nor
NAL condition. hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused by ca
tarrh, which is nothing but an intiamed condi-
ton of the mucous surfaces
