"Your new hat will blow off and
you will lose it,"
But Willie thought more OF the
scenery than be did his hat, and he
wouldn't miss the chance of seeing
a truly COW or a sure enough calf
for all the hats in Christendom.
His mother tried TO close the win

WEEKLY CROP BULLETIN.

The temperature during the past
week was below the normal nearly
every day. Owing to the high per.
centnge of moisture in the air. the
| fret half OF the week was more than
usually sultry and muggy. During
the last half of the week the air be-
came drier and felt cooler, but lit
tie change IN temperature occurred.
Rains were general on Tuesday.
Wednesday and Thursday. These
were from thunder showers and in
some localities were very neavy.
Notably the storm OF Wednesday
afternoon in the OHIO Valley below
Sistersville which caused great dam
age by floods and washouts. AZ
ter Wednesday very little rain oc-
Cured except from passing showers.
Very little sunshine was received
until the latter part of the week
when the sky cleared and several
days followed with rather more
than the usual amount of sunshine.
The weeks weather has been un.
favorable to crop growth and farm
work. The frequent rains during
the early part Of the week delayed
harvesting and prevented work in
corn fields. Some wheat has been
damaged IN shock. but the damage
does not appear to be great and is
confined to those localities whore
heavy storms occurred. Nearly
the whole of the crop has been
harvested, except in the mountain
sections, where some is yet stand
ing. Reports generally show that
the crop is light and that the harv-
est is from one to tive weeks earlier
than usual.
The corn crop is growing very
rapidly and IS coming into tassle.
The fields are very weedY and need
working, but beyond this the crop
is in excellent condition and most
promising.
Glover cutting has been delayed
by the wet weather, but the crop
to be uninjured. Other
hay crops are doing well. The oat
harvest will begin soon. This crop
is generally reported very good, but
in danger if wet weather continues
as the gram has begun to fall, in
some places very badly, as the
straw is heavy.
The potato crop is in excellent
and promises nm unusu.
ally large yield. Other garden
crops are in equally good condition.
Fruit of all kinds is plentiful,
and the peach crop is said TO be the
largest IN many years. Some cor
say grapes are rOtting,
bat express the opinion that with
more sunshine and drier weather,
the crop will vet be large.

STRAWBERRY SHERBET.

Every family can have sherbets as
often as they wish during the hot
weather. They are cheap and whole
some. For strawberry sherbet, get
two quarts, the small ones just as good
as the large if sound. When culled
and washed, sprinkled with coffee
cupful OF sugar, put them over a slow
fire, letting them come to boil; when
you think all OF the juice is free, strain
through a jelly bag. There should
be q quart of juice, to which add
pint Of water, and the beaten whites
of two eggs. Put in your freezer and
freeze, which should not take more
than twenty minutes. The easiest
way to break the ice is to put it in a
coarse sack and pound it with a flat
iron or a Ratchet. Then use one
third salt to two-thirds of ice. You
will have no trouble in freezing it,
and this is an excellent receipt for any
sherbot.

TO tours and the like, the writers will
be found recommending careful look
over the machine just before starting,
which is an obvious absurlity, unless
rspair and fitting shops are just
around the corner.
Another wise thing is to refill the
lamp at once after any Tide where it
has been used, because it is possible
that a hurried departure on some flu
ture occasion may cause the rider to
find himself ten miles from anywhere
with an oilless lamp.
Before q machine is stored away for
the winter, the procedure recon-
mended above for cleaning out the
bearing should be adopted. and the
bearings freshly oiled before the ma
chine is slowed away; the oil should
be removed in the same way before
the machine is again taken into use.
10 sum up. The care of cycle
may be put this way: A machine
with delicately adjusted parts must be
kept delicately adjusted to do its work
properly; proper adjustment insures
that the work shall fall as it was
intended by the machines designer it
should fall, and this gives it the best
chance OF meeting the calculated
strains, and at the same time pro-
longs its life as an effective instru-
ment. When laid by, all the delicate
parts should be protected from the
action OF the atmosphere by a coating
OF oil, and the tires should be relieved
OF strain by being debated
