WEEKLY SUMMARY OF CROPS.
Corn in Shocks Damaged by Dampness
and Mold Over Wide Area.


and Mold Over a Wide Area.
The weekly crop report issued by the
weather bureau says as whole the week
was very wet in the districts east of the
Rocky Mountains, with temperatures
generally above normal. except over the
middle Rocky Mountain slope, where it
was moderately cool. While the excess
sive rains interrupted farm work and
delayed the maturing of late crops, they
proved favorable for termination of fall
sown grain and placed the soil in fine
condition for blowing and seeding. No
damage resulted from frosts, which were
confined to the central and northern
Rocky Mountain districts on the Pacific
coast regions The general conditions
on the Pacific coast were favorable, al
though rain is needed in eastern Oregon.
The weather has been uufavorahle for
maturing late corn in the central valleys
and lake region. especially over the north
ern portion Of these districts, and the re-
ports Indicate that corn in shock has
been considerably damaged by dampness
and mold over a wide area aud that much
OF the crop in the upper lake region and
Missouri valley will not be marketable.
Reports of injury from rain to open cot
ton are very general throughout the belt.
with the exception Of the Carolinas and
portions of Texas. and sprouting and rot
ting in bolls are largely reported, cspe-
caily in the central districts. Picking,
though much interrupted. is well advanc
ed and is nearing completion in some dis
tricss. Late cotton in central and north
ern Texas is making rapid growth, but
will not mature unless frosts are unusu
ally late, and under these conditions
light top crop may also be gathered in
AlabamS A fine crop of sea island cot
ton is promised III South Carolina.
But little. if any, change in the apple
situation is indicated, the crop being light
in the middle Atlantic States and Ohio
valley, with more favorable conditions in
the upper lake RECON and Missouri val
ley. fine yields of good quality being gath
cred in some States.
Late tobacco has been materially inn
proved Cloudy and rainy weather,
which has been very general throughout
e. week, has been very unfavorable for

What may well he called the Oldest
dressmakers bill In the world" is a
tablet which was lately discovered in
Chaldca. This remarkable and unique
document is believed to have been writ
ten nearly 1900 years before the begin
ming Of our era. Il was the esistom Of
the Babylonian kings to present 70 the
temple sets Of robes for the use Of the
priests and priestesses. This was usu-
ally done every year. Many Of these
lists are In the British museum. The
oldest hitherto known has been that Of
a king about 1850 H. c. The document
now discovered IS, however much old
er The tablet is Of limestone and was
found in the ruins Of a temple In tie
city Of Nlpur. in southern Chaldea. This
temple was dedicated 10 the ghost
god" ana had a large priesthood at
tached 20 IL. From the style OF the
writing. which is extremely archaic.
and from the curious system If numer-
ais employed, the tablet Il is said. can
not be of later date than $500 u. g.
1t contains list of nincty-two vest
monts which were presented 10 the
temple by the king Tie name Of the
king is. unfortunately omitted. The
Inscription ends with the words: In
all. ninety-two yestments, the bill disU
Of the temple for the priests this year"
Many Of the words are unknown and
are doubtless technical terms employed
by the m0dIstes Of that period Among
the items are twelve white robes Of
the temple. eight robes Of the house Of
his lady. ten collars Of the house OF his
lady. ten pure gold collars, TWO white
robes" An item toward the end Of this
curious BID -four scented robes Is
suggestive II the passage In psalm xvi,
In which are mentioned the robes redo
lent Of "myrrh and aloes and cassin.
II was evidently the custom in Baby
lonia to perfume the robes. as it is ut
present in India and Persia. This doc
ument IS Of value as showing the great
development which had taken place in
the textile arts IN Chaldea even at that
early period.

Mr.. Roosevelt's First Year.

Theodore Roosevelt has been presi-
dent Of the United states one year. At
the outset he promised the country TO
continue the policy which his lament
ed predecessor had marked out. That
he has done SO there can be no doubt
He retained the Mckinley Cabinet, and
ii some of the members have retired it
is not because Of differences with the
President He has continued the poll
cy Of his predecessor in the Philip
pines. He has not changed an official
but has placed the utmost confidence
In the commission selected by Presi-
dent Mckinley The policy which Mr.
Roosevelt would have carried out with
reference to Cuba is precisely the same
which Mr., Mckinley would have urged
had he lived, He has made few
changes in public offices, and those
were necessary.
Not a party leader in the sense that
his predecessor was one OF the greatest
his party ever had. President Roose-
Welt has disappointed the opposition
by being able 10 have a large majori-
ty of his party In Congress with him,
and more securely with him when Con
gross adjourned than during the earlier
months OF the session. Instead of be-
ing headstrong, MS SOME predicted, he
has taken counsel with party leaders
in Congress. In regard to appoint
ments, it is rather 10 his credit that he
has been denounced more freely by n
class of Independents than by real
party men. At any rate nearly every
nomination he has made has received
the official sanction of the Senate. That
! every Republican State convention
thus far has approved and even com
nended his administration in the most
emphatic languag proves that he has
won with his party over the country
That he is greeted with unbounded en-
| thusiasm wherever he appears among
! the people shows that he has won the
confidence and regard OF the country.
He has displayed a courage which
| counts With the American people, and
even his opponents admit the Integrity
OF his purpose.
