The Small Corn Crop.

The condition of corn, now that the
crop can be definitely measured, is
known to be the worst on record in the
United States, at the same time of year.
The yield of that grain will apparently
be more than 600. OCO, 600 bushels under
a good average. The rise in the price of
corn has largely offset the decrease in
the yield, for those farmers who have
corn to sell. But as the change in mar
ket value has almost stopped exports
the higher prices have to be paid by
other Americans, and the general effect
upon the country is far from being the
same as that of a large crop sold at
moderate or even low figures.
The very great reduction in the yield
of corn is directly felt by meat buyers,
who have to make good the increased
cost of fattening cattle and hogs. The
railroads which run through the Sec
tions where the bulk of the corn crop
is grown find one of the principal
sources OF business reduced very sharp.
ly. Merchants in corn States cannot
expect quite such trade as they might
have enjoyed if the crop had been Of
normal size.-Cleveland Leader.

This Time a Shovel Factory.

There are few rumors affecting the
business interest of our town which are
more persistent than those that relate
to the recently dismantled steel works,
which reveals the interest our residents
feel in the future of the plant and the
anxiety with which they look forward to
it's rehabilitation. These rumors are not
confined to Danville, but are current
over wide section and our business

quently bring back information not ac-
cessible here.
One of these rumors very widely dis
cussed is to the effect that the disman'
tied building is to be occupied by shovel
factory, plant at present located IN
Philadelphia, which employs some l5O
hands. The rumor, which was investi'
gated yesterday, really seems to have
some foundation. although it could not
be fully verified.
The fact is we'll known that the Bes-
semer Company is casting about for
some profitable line of manufacture and
it would not be surprising if it had
hit upon the shovel industry, ,as it is one
among many, which, it seems, can be re,
lied upon at present to yield dividend
A meeting of the stock holders will be
held yet the present month and it is un'
derstood that the board of directors
have some proposition to make looking
to re-equipment and operation of the
plant.

in good condition. The hall on the first
floor, however, they condemn as dark
and gloomy and recommend that the
upper panels Of the doors of the Pro-
thonotary's, Commissioners grand jury
and Register and Recorders office be re-
moved and Opaque or obscure glass in
serted, the effect of which will be to ad-
NIT light into the hall, preventing at the
same time a view of the rooms. 1t was
recommended that the glass at each door
be lettered to indicate the Office.
At the Jail the cement floor in cell No.

box in second story were reported as In
need of repair. The purchase of half a
dozen strong chairs for use of prisoners
in the hall, some window strips and re-
papering of two of the bed rooms of the
Sheriff7s residence were recommended to
the county commissioners.
The river bridge was reported as in
