Kentucky Crops Damaged.

Paducah. KY, June 16.-The al
most incessant dOwnpour of rain
during the past few days has practi-
cally destroyed the wheat crop in
southern Illinois and western Ken
tucky. The largest acreage and
biggest yield would have been har-
vested in these sections within the
next few days had it not been for the
recent rain and wind storms
The corn and tobacco crops have
also been damaged. The smaller
streams have been swollen by water
spouts, and in many instances live
stock have perished Bridges have
been washed away, and the country
roads ruined.

ZINC MINES SHUT DOWN.
Only Half the Average Output This
Week.

Joplin. Mo. June 1.-THE close of
the week sees about half OF the con-
centrating zinc mills shut down.
Many of the big mines also have shut
down. but most of the >melrer mines
are still working The persistent ef-
forts OF the zinc smelter combine in
hammering down prices OF ore led To
the shutdown as the only immediate
remedy for the evil and the only
means of checking the decline in ore
prices.
For more than three months the
smelters have ignored the Missouri
and Kansas Zinc Miners Association
schedule for ore After lowering
prices from about SO to S2S ton.
the smelters were forced TO confront
Il proposition from the Zinc Miners
Association for a general shut down
of all of the mines The shut down
question was submitted 10 mine
owners of the MissOuri-kansas dis
trict, and enough OF them favored il
to prompt the association TO order a
shut down TO begin June IL.
Some of the mines had already shut
down on account of the low prices of
ore, preferring not TO produce ore at
present prices Others shut down in
compliance with the association :
wishes Some, however. refused To
shut down at all, saving that no ben
efits will be derived from a shut down
and that the building of zinc smelters
and roller mills by the owners is the
only remedy for the low prices which
the smelters so often infict.
About half the average output OF
zinc ore will be announced this week.
Prices are about 81 lower than last
week. Curtailing the supply is not
advancing prices al present, owing to
the complete control Of the ore mar
ket maintained by the zinc smelter
combine.

the market here in competition with

is big demand for it among the

can be purchased direct from the
dealers. About 100000 pounds OF
twine will be used by the farmers OF

mated that the entering of the state
into competition with the trust has
saved the farmers of this county
