Winter Wheat.

Speaking to reporter regarding
the general wheat situation, Chas.
A. Pillsbury said;
81 look upon the winter wheat
crop as practically failure. The
winter wheat section of the country
has not, from all appearances,
raised any more wheat than we
need here at home for our own
consumption. So far as the North
western spring wheat area is con-
cerned, the crop is looking and
doing fairly well. In some low
places there may be slight damage
from too much rain, but on the
whole, with favorable weather con
ditions from this time forward,
there ought not to be any reason
why we shonld not have up here a
reasonably abundant crop"

Eyesight is priceless, and the
popular opinion that the use OF
glasses should be postponed as
long as possible is erroneous. AS
soon as unpleasant feelings de-
note the approach of failing sight
glasses should be resorted to at
once, as the longer the eyes. are
deprived Of the aid which they
need, the more rapidly will be the
changes as the eye becomes de-
veloped. The market is flooded
with low-priced spectacles which
have imperfect lenses, and are
therefore a great injury to the
eye. The important part of a
pair of spectacles is the part COM
prising the frames, and naturally
OF most importance are the lenses
they contain. His glasses are
fitted with the finest spheroidal
convex and concave lenses, ac-
.curately measured and properly
adjusted to the frame, preventing
irritation and strain to eye. There
is great public need for informa-
ton regarding the proper selec-
ton of spectacles and care of the
eyes. A large portion of habit
ual weak eyesight may be entirely
remedied by the use of a care
fully adjusted glass to ass st
the sight and thereby remove the
undue strain to which the eyes
under certain conditions are sub
jected. Those whose eyes are in
condition of perfect health will
fail to understand adequately the
stress laid upon apparently trivial
matters..in the preceding remarks !;
but those who have suffered from
any defect or weakness of the
eyes will comprehend at once the
great importance of the seeming
