CROPS MORE PROMISING;
Resume Growth with Renewed vIEor as
Result of Recent Rains.


Resume Growth with Renewed vIEor as n
Result of Recent Rains.
The Illinois crop bulletin for the
week ending June 10 says:
Heavy local showers fell over most
of the state Wednesday and Thursday
and supplied much needed moisture
TO vegetation. These rains were fol-
lowed by others late in the week and
the soil now contains ample moisture
for the present needs of vegetation.
AS result all crops have resumed
growth with renewed vigor and are in
much more promising condition
than when last reported. In few
localities the rainfall was light and
there is still considerable need of rain.
While there has been great general
improvement in crop conditions, the
rain generally came too late to over
come all the effect of the previous dry
weather. There were few days of
warm and good growing weather. but
much Of the week was cool Though in
many places oats are still thin and
short as result Of previous dry
weather. there has been a decided
StutIdi lul pIDNeueut III Lnls crop IN
- few localities they are beginning To
head. There is more hopeful lone
TO reports regarding wheat than last
week. though in many places there is
continued injury by fly. The heavy
rains appear to have helped this crop
somewhat. The grains are generally
reported to he filling well. Much of
the crop is ripening in the central and
southern districts. Some wheaG was
blown down by high winds. Corn
shows some Improvement over last
week but there has been very little
growth on account of cold weather.
Cut worms are still causing some
damage on sod land. Most of
the work of the week has been
that of plowing corn, and the
crop is now generally clean and free
from weeds. Broom corn planning
has progressed we'll and some of it is
coming up nicely. Stock peas are
being sown. aud it is believed there
will be a large acreage. Meadows
and pastures have shown a decided
Improvement since the heavy rain,
but the rain came too late to give a
full crop of hay. Clover harvest has
begun in the central and southern
districts. Potatoes aud gardens have
improved since the rain. The fruit
prospects continue fairly good. The
condition of the apple crop has de-
Perforated slightly. The high wind of
Wednesday and Thursday caused

Milan to this city to give direct con-
nection with the Independents lines

Furnished the contractor at q cost of
$500. Another proposition to take
advantage of the offer OF the Tri-City
Railway company for the use of the
trolley poles involved an outlay of
$3.50 for putting up the line. Mr..
Simon further reported that little sue
cess had met the mittee's efforts
to bring about concerted action with
any organization representing the

stated in private conversation that be
had taken the matter up with the

aud that he had little doubt that Il

that they must use a Bell trsnsmitter

not known. but there is every reason

is going to be live one, and with so
many candidates in the field the
chances of all the men will be about
equal. There will be candidates from
North. South and Middle Georgia. This,
of course, will divide the legislators
upon the question, and If all the men
stav in the race it will take several

of support from the members when he
