Sioux City, Iowa, July Careful re-
ports from thirty-two counties, represents
ing territory bounded by Fort Dodge,
Iowa, on the east; Osmond, Neb., on the
west, and Huron, S. D., on the north,
forecast an unusually large yield of small
grain this year Further, there is re-
ported the beginning Of a corn crop which
would make at least an average yield.
Weather conditions have been almost
perfect for small grain, the moisture re-
sulting in luxuriant growth and long
heads, which, owing to the absence OF
rust and insect pests, promise to be well
filled with grain of the first quality. Rust
is reported only from limited area in
northeastern Nebraska. There will be
little lodging, for the grain has stooled
WELL Only few days Of hot weather
are required to round out one Of the best
small grain crops this section has known.
The corn crop is dependent upon the
weather during this month. Except III
central South Dakota, the corn thruouS
the section represented in the reports is
from one to three weeks behind. How
ever, it is Of good stand and healthy, and
hot weather this month will put the pros-
poets above par.
Reports on acreage Indicate that corn
continues to grow in popularity. In all
| three states an increase in corn acreage
Is reported, which Will probably average
10 per cent. Wheat has about the same
acreage as last year Following are the
estimates Of yields of small grain made
after inquiry from welI-posted farmera

PICTURES BY TELEGRAPH
Bayarian Scientist Has Perfected the
Telephotograph.
Golfers Weekly.

Many attempts have been made to-
invent some apparatus adapted to the
transmission Of photographs, handt
writing, ETC., over long distances by
means of the electric current. A
really successful device appears to
have been perfected by Professor Korns
Of Munich. The sending device is on
for some time, of the oscillations in
electric currents falling on selen-
ium cell. If Photographic negative
has ray Of light falling upon it from
above, and a selenium cell resting be-
low it, then when the negative is
moved we have changes in the cleo
trio current due to the differences IN
the amount Of light passing thru the
negative. The difficulty has been to
find a receiver which would reconyert
the electric oscillations into changes IN
light intensity. This is the problem EN-
that Professor Korn has solved. He
observed that the luminous radfations
from the electrodes in tube eXhaust-
ed to a pressure of e to nm. of mer-
curry were very sensitive to variations
in the circuit. By an ingenious mes
chanical contrivance he was able to
make these rays act upon a photo
graphically sensitive film, producing a
picture Of the variations in the
electric circuit. When this tube is
connected with the selenium cell OF
the transmitter, in such way that
slight variations in its current affect
the amount Of electricity in the cir
| cult of the receiver. an accurate res
production of the light received Is
given by the light emitted. This APP
paratus has already given satisfactory
reproductions of handwriting and
| photographs.

the object Of converting, wherever
possible, the public house from a

and the Transvaal there are active
agencies for bringing trust" prin&
ciples before the public.
The work Is being pushed forward
in Durham and other places, and the
very fact that Earl Grey is the presi-
dent Of the association will commend
who desire to see the liquor traffic
conducted upon the least offensive
lines. The latest report Of the assoc
citation shows that in England steady
and satisfactory progress is being
made, and experience has proved THAI
