WEATHER
AND CROPS.

Clear weather and nearly normal
temperature prevailed throughout the
State during the past week. In the
western part Of the State there has
been considerable smoke from forest
fires in the mountains. Light to heavy
trosts occurred on a few mornings the
early Part Of the week, doing some
damage TO tender vegetation. Very
light winds prevailed during the week.
The weather conditions have been ex-
tremely favorable for maturing late
crops and for general harvesting oper-
atoms.
In the eastern part of the State late
wheat and oats and the second crop Of
alfalfa are being cut and stacked, with
yields in excess Of the usual average.
In portions Of White Pine county the
fruit and vegetable crops will be short
owing to late frosts. T~hreshing returns
indicate that the grain Is turning out

Cattle are generally in good condi-
ton, and are being returned to the

when 1 had an attack of the grip

cured myself with n bottle of Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy" says Frank
W. Perry, Editor Of the Enterprise,
Shortsville, N. Y. "This is the hon
est truth. I at times kept from
coughing myself to pieces by taking
u t%easpoonful of this remedy, and
when the coughing spell would come
on in the night 1 would take a
dose and it seemed that in the briefest
interval the cough would pass off and
I would go to sleep perfectly free
from cough and its accompanying
pains. To say that the remedy acted
as a most agreeable surprise is putting
it very mildly. l had no idea that
it would or could knock out the grin
simply because I had never tried it
for such purpose, but it did, and it
seemed with the second attack OF
couging the remedy caused it to not
only be Of less duration, but the
pains were far less severe, and I mad
not used the contents of one bottle
