TREYaCRUsN the POWERS

This is written in midi October. The long,
oppressive summer is quite gone. Fading
leaf, whitening tree and the rustling corn in
the fields are signs of the season. Fog,
frost, rain, snow,-they are coming. You
remember last winter; of 1900 and 1901.
The weather was cruel. All! the thous-
ands it killed, and the hundreds of thous-
ands it MANNED and crippled Oh, the
rough grasp it laid on men at work, women
rs home, and children in cribs and cradles.
Coughs that began before Thanksgiving
Day are racking and tearing them still; yes,
and growing worse as they dig deeper into
the poor, tired throat and lungs. Many
wcrn cured by using Benson's Porous Plas-
.ters For the soothing and healing power
of these Plasters is wonderful. They con-

The long rainy periods during the
latter part Of September and the first
week of this month delayed the SOW
ing of small grain, and caused much
injury to corn and poorly shocked fod-
der. However, as Hessian flies are
very numerous in most fields this year,
the later sown grain will quite likely
do better than that sown earlier. In
most orchards hereabouts, apples were
very scarce this year, but Jno. e.
Yount harvested fine crop of them
yesterday.
No serious damage was done by
''Jack Frost" in this locality, until the
night of the 18th inst. Since then the
weather has been remarkably warm
for October in this latitude.
