A farmer whose name we withhold
thinks he has discovered cure for
this disease among chickens. Lie fss-

accidentally discovered, as he had put
the chickens there to die, away from
other chickens.

II is Just as Important

That you enrich and purify your

this time, owing to decaying vegeta-

causes, there are disease germs all

system quickly yields to an attack of
malaria, tevers, etc. BY purifying
and enriching your blood with Hoods

system to resist these dangers, as we'll

Weather conditions have induced a
freer marketing of the wheat crop
than would otherwise have been the
case. The heavy rainfall, which was
general during the early part of Au-

much of the wheat in shock in con-
dition that storing in home granaries
would endanger the quality. OF

l, 1897, the estimated per cent. of
wheat still in hands of farmers was
Sc. Estimating the damage result
ing from rain shows that 16 per cent.
of the crop was damaged while in
shock and stack in the western sec
ton, IL per cent. was damaged in
central section and Is per cent. in
eastern section.
Tho conditions, until the last week
of August, have been exceedingly IA
vorsble to preparations for the new
crop, but stimulus of a high price or
advancing market is wanting.S
CORN.
The corn crop will be one of the
heaviest in yield per acre ever pro-
duced in the State. While much of
the acreage was planted late, the fore
ing season, especially during the past
month, has brought late corn to a
stage of maturity, where little appre-
hension of damage from frost need be
felt. ..-....
On August 1st the condition for the
State averaged 81. On September l,
1897, the condition was So.
Late corn was beginning to suffer
for rain with the close of the month.
TOBACCO.
The tobacco crop shows a marked
improvement since August LIST, and q
somewhat gloomy outlook on that
date is transformed into one where
crops of fine yield and quality figure
extensively. .. w..
The crop has suffered in common
with corn by overflow in bottoms.
Cutting began as early as the Goth.
1t is estimated that % per cent. Of the
crop was housed prior to September
LIST in the western section, "a per cent.
in the central section and II per cent.
in the eastern. On September l, 1897,
the estimate was that 5 per cent. of
the crop of the State was housed
prior to September LIST.
The improvement in condition has
been general in the counties compos-
ing the central and western sections.
For the State the average condition
is 80, an improvement of z points
during the month. On September !,
1897, the condition for the State was
go.

Men of Genius.

Through all time men of genius
have scoffed at and have ridiculed
the attempts of purse proud old
richness" to create superior orders
of manhood. Nor is this a matter
for wonder. They we're and are rid
iculous. Yet these attempts are re-
peated every hour. Considering
them one would suppose wealth,
titles, dignities, are talismans which
insures virtue and honor and person
al worth and beauty in those to
whom they descend. Talismans are
ridiculous and so are titles.
Nobility is of blood and not of gar
ters, royal sponsors and christening
robes. Pedigrees, portraits and fam
lily history when truthful tell us a
great deal about the nobility of a
race. Titles, quarterings and pat
ents are worthless, and the produc-
ton of great genius is in general as
bad sign as the production of a
great profigate. Races that pro-
duce geniuses should be avoided.
Genius, as some one Victor Hugo,
L think } has finely said, is promon-
tory stretching out into the ocean of
the infinite. Look for the descend
ants ofShakespere, Bacon, Macauley,
Wellington, Nelson, Gibbon, Swift,
Voltaire, Carlyle, Bonaparte, Gold
smith, Spencer, Milton. Cromwell,
Disraeli-tO take few names at ran
dom-and you will fiud that they are
not, for the genius is always a trans
gressor Of the normal "sport."
He is never symmetrical. Such one
nature likes not, and she makes a
provision for the extinction of his
race.

Medical researches show that in a

more diversity in their measurements

becoming even more marked with
age. Thus the negro children are
taller at the same age than the

ences up to the age of outfourteen.
The size of the head is somewhat
smaller in the negro, teeth are strong

ear, which is smaller and has a droop-

Skating.

An experienced skating-teacher
lays great Importance upon the kind
OF shoes worn. "a great deal is
said" be remarked, "about proper
ly supporting the ankle, and people
complain that they cannot skate be-
cause their ankles are weak. Now,
in at least five out of ten of these cas-
es, there is nothing at all the matter
with either the ankle or it's support.
The trouble is right here" and he
touched tie side of his shoe inst be-
low the hollow of the foot. "l'hi5
part of shoe" he continued, ought
to be very snug and stiff, to hold the
foot straight, and prevent its twist
ing between the toe and the heel.
That is what usually makes the
skater "wobble" and lose his foot
ing, and then he thinks the trouble is
with his ankle. The height OF the
shoe'does not matter much. "-Har-
