MOUNTAIN, June 17.-After a few hot days
the first of the month, We have had very pleas
ant weather and crops are doing finely.
Wheat, which is beginning to take on golden
hue, promises an abundant yield, while corn,
owing to the cold, wet spring was planted
late, is now pushing to the front and making
good growth. Oats are also looking WELL
Mr.. Amos B. Hollingsworth has field Of
winter oats which are unusually line. Mr..
Hollingsworth thinks the yield will be 40 or 50
bushels per acre.
Now that winter oats seems to be an assur
ed success in this vicinity, it would be well
for farmers to SOW in the fall, as it would re-
lieve them of great deal of work in the
spring, when the weather is so uncertain.
Crimson clover is also coming into great favor
in the lower part of the district nearly every
farmer having sown some last year. This Is
one of the most valuable crops which the
farmer can grow, as he can sow it in his corn
field at the last working of the corn and it
will take the place of weeds, which would
otherwise grow. 1t makes rapid growth in
spring it can be cut in time to plant the
ground in corn or tomatoes or be plowed
down as q fertilizer.
Grass is generally up to the average. To-
matoes which were set late are doing we'll

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications 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 intiam-
ed you have rumbling 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 infiamed condi-
ton of the mucous surfaces.

case of Deafness Caused by catarrh) that cam
