Day county farmers should not
neglect their abundant hay crop this
year, as has been too often done in
years past. Hay has been hay all
over this state during recent years
and right here in Webster this last
spring it sold for as high as ten
dollars per ton and then there was
not sufficient home product to sup
ply the local market, but an inferior
quality of baled hay had to be ship
ped in. The prairies this year
abound in a splendid quality of hay
and nc farmer can afford to have
any idle time until snow flies. There
is no cropwhich furnishes such splen-
did profits AID for as little work.
Don't neglect the hay crop.

NOT WHOLLY N

Looking the country over it is
clear that the crops in a large major
ity of states are in fair condition and
that the outlook is far better than
has been represented. When fiery
blasts are raging at a temperature of
l07 in the shade it is easyt to imagine
that the situation is desperate. But
this is alarge country, with innumer-
able variations of weather within its
limits. A drought is always more or
less localized. Up to the end of the
wheat harvest the crop conditions in
all the states were first class. MANY
states have suffered seriously, and
those where the heat has been so
excessive and rains scanty can not
tell just where they stand as to crops
not yet matured. But the picture
OF destruction has been completely
overdrawn even in the section where
the drought is worst. Abundant
rains would put a new face upon
affairs. Corn is, as the secretary of
agriculture says, a hot weatherplant.
1t will not come to anything in acool
climate. A three-fourths yield
would go beyond 900
bushels, and a crop of this size is
still quite possible.
The story of the hottest month on
record in this country has been
largely colored by intense phi ysical
discomfort, and lists Of prostrations

Huron dispatches that Thomas H.
Null was being urged by Huron
people regardless of party to run

they do not deem him the comfy thing

%KITTREDGE

A populist newspaper published a
strenuous editorial headed "Another
Corporation Attorney" announcing
and denouncing the appointment OF
A. b. Kittredge as United States
senator from South Dakota. The
Washington Post took the matter up
in its editorial columns, and thus
defended the appointment.
1t is a fact, we believe hat Mr..
Kittredge is a corporation attorney.
That being the case, he must be an
able lawyer, for the corporations
have the very sensible and business
like habit of seeking and finding the
best legal talent. OF course ne
quality comes high, but the corpor.
ations need it in their business, and
they have learned that the best is. in
the end, the cheapest, n~otwithstand-
ing the difference in cost. No man
who is not Intellectually strong can
attain eminence as a lawyer. From
these facts it follows that Mr.. Kit
tredge must possess qualifications
for useful work in the senate.
Why should not any lawyer be as
free to accept a retainer from a cor
poration as from an individual? 1t
is his duty to defend the most
wretched and poverty -stricken c rimi-

Made Altogether From the Bark of
Common American Shrub.

Made Altogether From the BARK OF
Common American Shrub.
The manager of the drug store took up
a bottle of distilled witch hazel and
pointed at the picture of a lot of naked
South American Indians engaged in
bringing to the distillery huge bundles of
twigs. From this picture the natural in
ference was that this was the way in
which the shrub from which the witch
hazel or hamamelis of commerce is ex-
tracted was brought to the distilleries in
some wild and hardly habitable region.
''That picture" he remarked. sis one
of the pretty little fictions of trade that
have created a decided impression. 1t
has, have no doubt, brought to the con-
Germ shrewd enough to adopt 1t many
thousands of dollars in profit. But it
was all fake as we call such things
nowadays. As a matter Of fact. the
great bulk Of all the witch hazel distilled
is made in factories along the line of
the Shore Line division of the New York
and New Haven road. The bark from
which it Is distilled is all harvested in
the New England states, near where the
distilleries are located. The savages
that bring the bark to the factories bring
it in farm wagons. The nearest they
come to being untutored saVages Is When
they are at their homes engaged either as
country farmers or charcoal burners.
"There has always seemed to be q
great mystery about this popular astrin-
gent that is used in about every home in
the country. Few know or stop to think
that it is distilled from the bark of one
of the most common of our wild shrubs.
Now that the talk of trust to control
the manufacture of the extract has reach
ed the papers, the facts as to witch hazel
are appearing. / have had several of my
customers ask me IL 1t Is true that witch
hazel is not an imported remedy, but
merely a Yankee concoction.' 1t Is a
fact that it is entirely Yankee industry,
and all the bark from which the distilla-
ton is made is gathered in Massachu-
sets, Rhode Island and Connecticut. The
latter state is the chief source of the sup
ply. Madison, Guilford, Clinton, West
brook and the contiguous Connecticut
shore villages have lot of families that
are mainly supported by their harvestings
of witch hazel. 1t is there that the most
popular of the proprietary brands Of the
astringent is all made, herb gathering,
Indian labels and all."-New York Times.
