WHEAT BELOW THE AVERAGE
Start of Crop is Comparatively Poor
Condition Under Expert Estimates.

Start of Crop is Comparatively Poor
Condition Under Expert Estimates.
New York City.-The Government
crop report on winter wheat, just is
sued, showed a decrease, both as to
condition and estimated yield in COM
pariSOn with the corresponding report
of April, 1903. The condition is 76.5
as against 97.3 in April a year ago,
and 1858 in December. 1908.
The estimated yield to the acre, as
figured by Statistician Brown of the
Produce Exchange, is 1873 bushels and
the indicated crop is 425, 800, 900 bush
els. The April. 1903, and December,
1903, acreages estimates were respec-
lively 17.3 and 15.4, and the indicated
crops were $50, 000, 1000 bushels and
493, 000, 1000 bushels. The final crop of
winter wheat in 1903 was 800, S67, 900
bushels and the yield to the acre 12.3
bushels.
The figures, giving an indicated yield
of : 5,600.0 900 bushels, do not take into
account the amount of wheat winter
killed, these figures not being made
public until May. In May of last year
the acreage winter killed was put at l.
100000 acres and i'll 1901 the killed
area was about 100000 acres.
While the present report created
some disappointment in the grain trade,
it was looked upon as less conclusive
than usual Oh account of the severity
of the winter, which has put the grow
ing Season far back.

DIVORCES NOT RECOGNIZED.

Court Decision Invalidates Many De-
crees Granted to Residents of Iowa.
Des Moines, Iowa.-Justice Weaver,
Of the Supreme Court, in a decision
does not recognize the divorces granted
to 1owans in Dakota. In the case of
Beeman versus Beeman it is held that
the husband must pay to his wife one
third Of his fortune, amassed since the
decree of divorce was granted. Mrs.
Beeman will receive about $4,000.
The case is of unusual interest, for
the reason that such a decision invali-
dates many divorces granted Iowans.
Under it residence in either of the Da-
kotas for the statutory period is not
satisfactory evidence of a bona fide
change of residence.

COOKE MAKING MANY
FRIENDS IN PARTY
Democratic Candidate Gains Additional
Strength With Those With Whom
He Comes in Contact.

Hon. George A. Cooke, representa-.
tive in the general assembly from this
district has won many new friends
and supporters during his visit to Rock
Island, and the indications now are
that he will receive much larger vote
Nov. 8 than he did on the occasion OF
his first election two years ago.
Mr.. Cooke is a man of attractive per
sonality, and his earnest and sincere
address wins the confidence of those
with within he comes in contact. He Is
a democrat through and through, and
under the circumstances at present
prevailing in the district there can be
no excuse for any democrat who wants
TO see his party succeed failing to vote
the three votes to which he is entitled
for him election day.
The duties of democrats is plainly
to support Mr.. Cooke and the members
of the party are daily becoming more
impressed with that view of the situa-
ton. To vote otherwise is simply 10
throw away the vote.
