Potatoes appear to be IN exceptionally
lino crop and are ready for use in
many sections. Rye is nearly ready
for cutting and wheat is heading we'll,
though extremely thin on the ground.

crop than elsewhere. the trees having
suffered less from the SO called blight
Apples have ceased dropping of and
the trees generally retain all they are
able to mature.

of city rs It's support Of II library;
and as the rich bay their own books,
and rarely patronize a free circulating
library, this national intellectual pro

the people We spend thousands of
dollars on our public schools, and all
over the country we have good Gle
mentary schools. We teach our child
rem to read, and then make but little
effort to supply them with books to
carry out the taste thus created.
Money spent on schools and libraries
is not IN expense. 1t Is an investment
