Waterloo. H.. July 2-Wheat thrashing
was commenced to-day in Monroe County.
The yield is disappointing. running from
three to ten bushels to the acre, averaging
about six bushels. Many farmers have not
even harvested their wheat. but plowed it
under, as they say the expense would be
more than what 1t is worth
The grain thrashed is so small and in
Ierior that farmers cannot use, it, for seed
other years the yield was from fifteen to
thirty bushels.

Possibilities in AirsnIps.

The Smithsonian institution has
published a new edition of DR.. Lang
lcyAs Experiments in .f,rodynamics, :"
first printed eleven years ago. In
summing up, DR.. Langley speaks of
the prospects for the future somewhat
as follows: Since that time, ne says.
he has demonstrated that mechanical
flight is possible by actually perform
ing it with steel flying machines near
ly a thousand times heavier than air,
driven by steam. These machines
weighed from thirty to forty pounds
and flew from a half to three-qualters
Of mile at speeds varying from
twenty to thirty miles an hour. It is
believed by DR.. Langley that the time
is now very near when human beings
will be transported at high velocities,
though perhaps at first under excep-
tional conditions, such as are demand
ed in the arts of war rather than of
peace.

aides Auxiliary Rally.

There will be a grand rally Of the
aides Auxiliary at the Young Men S
Christian association next Friday at
3:30 D. m. All ladies in the city who
are interested in young men and boys
are cordially invited to attend. A
splendid program will be rendered CON
sistiag of solos and readings. The
most delightful. instructive and inter
esting feature of the afternoon Will
be tie address of Mrs. Jennie Beau
champ, of Little Rock. Mrs. Beau
champ is president of the Little ROCK
auxiliary. which is at present one OF
the largest and most successful aux
illiaries in the west She is a splendid
speaker and one who is thoroughly
aroused in the interest of the work
for men and boys. There is no agency
equal in value to the Ladies' Auxiliary
in the work for young men, They have
distinct and specific part to per-
form when it comes to raising men to
a high standard of living. Woman
has ever had a refining and uplifting
influence in the lives of men. Without
the restraining power of her high and
pure life man would soon retrograde
into barbarisf The rally will be
social affair and good time is prom
ised to all ladies who attend.

In a Critical Attitude.

Some people seem TO be born in an
unhappy frame Of mind They cannot
admire eXcellency without making
some commet1 CT deficiencies. With
them the times a"e always out of
joint" They are etnply in a critical
attitude and nothing except grumbling
will satisfy their morbid condition,
says the Pittsburg Press. They re-
mind one very strikingly of the old
lady who, when she was asked how
she felt. replied that she felt better,
but that when she felt better she al
ways felt worse, as she knew II she
felt better she was going to have .
worse spell again.
