Lincoln, Neb., July 14.--"The prin-
cipal trouble with wheat this year,
said Professor Lyon of the expert
ment station, who has made close
investigation of the disease which is
affecting the crop, from samples sent
in from different parts OF the state,
lis a scab disease. The wheat mas
rusted some; of course that would
affect it, but it would not account Tor
the damage to the crop this year.
The scab is a fungus growth which
prevents the head from filling out. the
scientific name for the growth is
'fusarium,' but it is commonly known
as scab. 1t saps the sustenance out
of the wheat and of course keeps the
head from filling.
1T seems to be confined to the
southeastern part of the state. We
have some samples of wheat affected
by it from Fillmore county, but
doubt If it is very prevalent as far
west as that. We have been troubled
with it on the state farm and 1 am
convinced from the samples we have
received that this is the principal
cause of the light yield.
THE scab is caused by excessive
moisture and was first noticed last
year which was, like this year, un-
usually wet. The disease requires a
couple of years to gain much head
way, and there is little danger from 1t
except when we have two consecutive
years of wet weather. In ordinary
years it is too dry for it to thrive.
The scab propagates on the seed
and we have found that by treating
the seed with formalin it will prevent
it's carrying over in this way. 1t may
have other ways of carrying over,
however, which this treatmeEt Will
not affect so it may not be possible TO
stamp it out altogether
Professor Lyon said that he dld not
think the Hessan fly had anything to
do with the disease which is affecting
wheat because it does it's work much
earlier in the season. The present
trouble was first noticed about three
weeks ago while the fly would have
gotten in its work in the spring.
Professor Bruner Of the entomology
department at the university says that
he has found no evidence Of the fly
being in the state in any large num-
Der.
Professor Lyon does not think that
the theory that the pollen was washed
off while the flower was in bloom is
the correct one for the reason that
the wheat bloom is not an open fer
tilize. 1t does not crossfertilize like
corn, and if cross fertilization takes
place the flower must be opened
artificially and the pollen taken out.
The heaviest rain he thinks would not
be able to wash the pollen out Of the
plant.
The scab disease, he says, turns the
head of the wheat white and this phe-
her of farmers who ascribe the
trouble to other causes. While there
is some black rust he does not think
it would have as marked an effect on
the Weld as has been noticed this
year.

Special to The Journal.


Iowa Falls, Iowa, July 14.-In an
interview today, President E. S. Ellis
worth of the Des Moines, Iowa Falls
&, Northern denied emphatically the
report printed by the press of north
ern Iowa and southern Minnesota,
that the Des Moines Short Line was
to become link in a trunk line from
Minneapolis to the gulf.
The report states that this proposed
system is to be engineered by j. J.
Hill Of the Great Northern and Presi-
dent Ellsworth, and that construc-
ton camps had been established at
Iowa Falls and Owatonna, Mimi, and
that work on the northern extension
of the Short Line to Mason City would
be pushed rapidly.
Mr.. Ellsworth said that this report
which appears to have emanated from
Mason City, is the first he has heard
Of any such coalition, and that no al
lance has been with any other road

ONE OF DR.. CUpID'S PRESCRIPTIONS.

That Love sometimes cures disease Is q
fact that has recently been called to the
attention of the public by a prominent
physician and college professor. In some
nervous diseases of women, such as hys-
terra, this physician gives instances where
women were put in a pleasant frame OF
mind, were made happy by falling in love,
nervous troubles-the weak, nervous sys-
tenn toned and stimulated by little DR..
Cupid became strong and vigorous, al
most without their knowledge. Many
woman is nervous and irritable, feels drag
ged down and worn out, for no reason that
she can think of. She may be ever so
much in love, but DR.. Cupid fails to cure
her In ninety nine per cent. OF these
cases 1t is the womanly organism which
requires atteption; the weak back, dizzy
spells and black circles about the eyes, are
trouble and correct the Irregularities, the
drains on the womanly system and the
other symptoms disappear. So sure of it
is the Worlds Dispensary Medical Associa-
ton, proprietors of DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription, that they offer a. $500 reward
for women who cannot be cured of leucor-
rhea, female weakness, prolapsus, or fall
ing of the womb. All they ask is a fail
and reasonable trial of their means of cure.
DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets clear the
complexion and sweeten the breath, they
bowels and produce permanent benefit anc
do not react on the system. One is {
gentle laxative.

NOT TAPATENT MEDICINE.
HyOmei, the Guaranteed Catarrh
Cure, Prescribed by Physicians.

No one should coutound Hyomei with
patent medicines that are advertised to
cure catarrh. 1t is as far superior to
them all as the diamond is more valu-
able than cheap glass. Their compost
tion is secret, but Hyomei gives its for
mula to all reputable physicians.
Is it nos foolish to try and cure ca
tarrh by swallowing tablets or liquids?
The only natural way to cure this
disease and all other diseases of the re-
spiratory organs is to breathe Hyomei.
This treatment has been so successful,
curing SO per cent. of all who have used
it, that Hyomei is now sold by Clarke &
90. under an absolute guarantee to re-
fund the money if it does not cure.
You run no risk whatever in buying
Hyomei. If it does not possess unusual
powers to cure, it could not be sold
upon this plan.

VERY BUSY FIGHTERS.

New York, Sept 14.-Pugilists were busy out of town on Monday night three interesting bouts being decided. At Baltimore before the Eltaw A. C., large crowd witnessed slashing if teen round bout between Tommy FeltH of Brooklyn and Tony Bender of Eliza beth. Although Feltz received the yer dict, there were many in the crowd who thought that the. decision should have been draw. Feltz had tritie the better Of hostilities in the earlier rounds, but from the tenth to the fin iSh Bender scored the most points.
 Two bantams, who entered the ring at 105 pounds, gave an interesting ex hibition for ten rounds at Webster, Mass. The principals were Johnny Fisher of Worcester and Patsy Me Kenna of Boston, and they met in the Music hall. McKenna gave Fisher q severe walloping and was declared the winner. McKennas victory Is all tic more significant, as he entered the ring against the advice of his physician. who gave him certificate stating that he had water on the elbow.
 There was some hot fighting at the Chester Broadway A. O., Chester, Pa. The weather was warm and the crowd sat under electric fans in their shirt sleeves. The main event was a six round bout between Kid Wilson of Or ange, N. J., and Billy Dinkle of syra- cuse. Wilson knocked Dinkle out in the fourth round after some hard hit ting and knockdowns. Dinkle took the count in the third round, but stag gered to his feet and clinched. When the men broke Dinkle landed a hard right on the jaw and Wilson went down. He recovered in time to finish the round. The final round was a hummer, hut Wilson was the stronger and succeeded in putting Dinkle away with a right counter on the jaw.
