Rain.

The dorught was broken Thurs
day evening, but the amount OF
rain was not sufficient, in some
sections being mere showers. But,
little as it was, it helped greatly,
and made it possible for the suffer
ing crops to stand the seige while
longer. In some sections we are
informed the fall was greater, and
perhaps enough to save the crops,
The young corn especially was
benefited, and it is now the sole
hope of many for crop, the old
corn being dead beyond saving.
The weather bureau is issuing
encouraging forecasts, and If their
predictions come true, we can hope
for sufficient rainfall to make the
crop not already destroyed.

bottle of it for his wife, who for
eight weeks had suffered with the
most terrible pains In her back and
could get no relief. He says "After
using the Pain Balm for few days

Canal Talk.

Civil Engineer Wellman Brad
ford, of the Bradford canal, one of
the biggest irrigating schemes In
the State, started breaking ground
last week and is going right through
with big force OF men. Crops,
timber, nothing stands In the path
of the right OF way. The farmer
Is paid for his crop and the wood
land owner for his timber, and the
good work goes merrily on. That
looks like business-the genuine
article. That's Intimately better
than talking about 1t. Nothing
looks so well as the actual thing.
Mr.. Shell, of the Shell canal, Is
doing vigorous and effective work.
He and his folks are busy getting
rights-of-way, and are succeeding
admirably. Mr.. Shell tells us that
he has met with comparatively lit
tie opposition, and that he has
gone through the worse part of the
work. He will start to work as
soon as the right-of-way has been
gotten and the survey made. Mr..
Shell is hustling fellow, and is
"doWn to 1t" as hard as a man can.
Some are predicting a "hiteh"
between these two canals when it
comes to crossing one another,
which they will do. 1t is presumed
that the one who gets there first
will object to the other crossing
him, and then will come the tug of
war. We are told, tho, that in
that case the late fellow will have
the right to tunnel under the first
fellows canal. and this will doubt
less solve the difficulty. There is
no reason for friction between
these two canals. There Is room
enough for both, and few more
besides, and any attempt on the
part OF either to "head OF" the
other should be froWned down by
the people. We want both canals.
That's what we want.

! The Cotton Crop.

A New Orleans broker writing
to the New York Commercial says:
"In my opinion the men who are

are going to make a great deal Of
money, for all of my correspond
ents say the crop is looking we'll,
and you must remember that 81 il

of a year ago, when it was II, and
all the circulars were advising sales
of cotton. They could raise twelve
million bales on the present acre.
age; it is possible thing. Re-
member, they fooled US when the
crop jumped from nine millions to
eleven millions, and we might
easily be fooled if the crop should
jump from ten to twelve million
bales. Bear in mind, too, that In
dia has just had good rains, and
will doubtless have a good crop.
In this country the tap root is be-
ing developed; rain at this time
might be the worst thing In the
world for the plant. Rains this
month might have caused the roots
to spread above ground; now, how
ever, the tap root is going straight
down, and the plant will be the
better able to stand bad weather
later on. Were this the latter part
of July / admit that the dry
weather would be serious, but no.
body can convince me that we shall
have no rain between now and the
