If love is blind, why is it that he spies
So many wonders hid from other eyes
Strange, new delights in earth and sky

That lend the gayest day his sorcery?
If love is deaf, why is it that he hears
Sweet harmonies unheard by other ears,
The soft whisper and the faintest breath,
And, aye, the lightest word woman

If love can neither see nor hear nor know
The wiser paths down which his subjects
go;
If none may understand his mastery,
How is it that he holds the world in fee?

MISSOURI CROP O
Marked Improvement Shown in Con.
dihon Of Growing Corn.


COLUMBIA, No July THE Unit

climate and crop bulletin Of th,
Weather Bureau. Missouri section
issued to-day, is as follows:
The week just closed has been the
warmest Of the season, although tie
mean temperature differed but little
from the normal, except in the north.
eastern portion OF the State, where
there was a slight excess. Showers
we're quite general on the third and
fourth and in localities in the western
sections the total rainfall ranged from
! 10 over 2 inches but over much the
greater portion Of the State Il was
light Warm showers are much need
ed in most sections.
The work has been very favorable
for farm work and the increased
warmth has caused marked improve
ment in the condition OF the corn
crop. In a few localities corn is
rather weedy, but Is a rule 1t is we'll
cultivated and is making rapid
growth, though needing rain in some
districts. Considerable carly corn has
been laid by and in the southern sec
lions some is showing silk and tassel.
The replacing on oyerfiowed lands is
about completed, good stands have
been secured as a rule, and cultivation
is in progress. A considerable portion
of the oyeriiowed lands will be sown
TO millet. Cotton also shows improve
ments as a result OF the higher tenn
perature.
Wheat harvest is nearing compile
ton, except in the extreme northern
counties and stacking and thrashing
are becoming general. Good yields
are reported in some OF the northern
counties, but in Others the yield is
disappointing and in nearly all of the
central and southern counties it isl
very light.
Many correspondents report an i'm
proyement in the condition OF oats
and in nearly all OF the northern and
a considerable number of the south
ern counties, and average or more than
an average yield is expected. In
many Of the southern counties, how
ever, the crop will be light, due large
ly to the plant lice. Cutting is now
in progress. The cutting of clover is
well advanced and an excellent crop
has been secured in good condition.
Timothy is also being cut, and while
some counties the yield is light, in
most sections a heavy crop will be Sc
Pastures continue in good
condition. Millet and cow peas are
well. Flax is making fair pro-
yresS in Audrain, Cas-, Vernon and
Benton counties, but it is unpromis-
ng in portions Of Bates and Cedar |
counties.
Potatoes and gardens are generally |
,rowing well, but melons as a rule are !
lnpromising. Grapes promise a good
'rop in some localities, while in 9TH
rs there are very few. For the State,
S a whole, there will probably be
bout half a crop. What apples re-
on the trees are generally doingl
yell. In some counties there will bel
fair crop OF peaches. Blackberrles ,
re now ripening, and with SUFFICIENT /
ain will be very plentiful. i

FIVE MILLION TIES.
DR.. Brown Estimates His Purchases
at This Enormous Figure.

DR.. j. J. Brown informs the Fulton
Sun that there will be q shortage OF al
least $1,000 ties there this year on nc.
count Of the bad roads last winter.
Usually he buys In that county about
l25,0O0 ties, but this year he must be
satisfied with 5000. More ties have
been delivered within the past month
than for four months past, and a good
~ number are coming in at this time,
Notwithstanding the fact that It is
the farmers busy season. Heretofore
the ties bought in Galloway have gone
TO the main line, where about $50, 900
are used annually for repairs, but the
present years purchases will be used
In the improvement OF the Chicago &
Atoms branch between Mexico and
Jefferson City. Flrst-class white and
burr oak ties are worth 40 cents each,
and seconds or culls, 20 cents. During
the twenty-seven years DR.. Brown has
been engaged in the tie business he
has bought in the neighborhood OF
ties from Galloway county
for which he has paid a million
and a half dollars. There is still much
