THE season of catching cold is upon
j us. The cough and the sneezc
and the nasal twang are to be
heard on every hand. The origin Of
chronic catarrh, the most common and
dreadful of diseases, is a cold.
This is the way the chronic catarrh
generally begins. A person catches
cold, which hangs on longer than usual
The cold generally starts in the head
and throat. Then follows sensitive
ness of the air passages which incline
one to catch cold very easily. At last
the person has cold all the while
seemingly. more or less discharge from
the nose, hawking, splitting. frequent
clearing of the throat, nostrils stopped
up, full feeling in the head, and sore,
infiamed throat
The best time to treat catarrh is at the
very beginning. A bottle of Peruna prop
erly used, never fails to cure a common
cold, thus preventing chronic catarrh.

While many people have been cured
OF chronic catarrh by single bottle of
Peruna, yet, as a rule, when the catarrh
becomes thoroughly fixed more than
one bottle is necessary to complete q
cure. Peruna has cured cases innumer-
able of catarrh of twenty years stand
ing. 1t isthe best, II not the only inter-
nal remedy for chronic catarrh in ex-
istence.
But prevention is far better than cure.
Every person subject to catching cold
should take Peruna at once at the
slightest symptom of cold or sore throat
at this season OF the year and thus pre-
vent what is almost certain to end in
chronic catarrh.

In these states Taking the situation as 4
WHOLE the winter wheat crop has been moder-
ately lowered in promise, and is but little above
an average prospect at this time.
In the principal eastern wheat states harvest
Will be early usual or earlier, but in the
west it will be a little late.
In the spring wheat section weather conditions
during the week have been favorable and nothing
of an adverse nature has arisen to affect the fine
prospect Of the spring wheat crop.
The corn crop situation is peculiar. The ex.
cessive rains in the west have come In the midst
of corn planting operations bringing the work
to q practical standstill, with many fields not
planted. The crop Is very late. Early In the
season it was expected that large acreage
would be planted to corn, and 1t would be a nat
ural inference that the continued Interruptions
to planting to this late date would result in a
reduced acreage. This however, is still an
unsettled matter. At best the crop will GER
tainly be late. The southern states, and early
planted corn in the northern corn states generally
have good stands. but need cultivation. The rains
of the west have necessitated much replanting
on low lands.
The oats crop has made further Improvement
during the past week, notwithstanding the heavy
rains in the west; the whole the prospects
are fair, hut not up to average.
There has been some Improvement in the hay
crop east Of the mississippi river, but It with be
short from eastern Ohio eastward. In the ives
tern states the crop will likely be heavy. Glover
prospects are good.
The movement OF grain In the interior during
the week has been moderate in the west It was
light, owing to rains and bad roads.
In Ohio wheat will be ready to harvest little
carly. In the southern part Of the stae the crop
Is less promising than previously reported, due
to excessive water and rust. In most other
parts of the state the condition continues good.
For the state as whole the prospects have de-
clined during the month probably 8 per cent,
but this still admits OF a good crop being har>
vested.
