CROP SUMMARY
Weekly Report Issued by the Weather
Bureau.

Washington, Aug. 22.-The weather
bureaus weekly crop summary, isued
today, is as follows:
The harvesting, stacking and thresh-
ing of spring wheat on lowlands in
the northern part of the spring wheat
region, where grain is fully ripe, were
interrupted during the fore part of the
week, the fields being too wet for the
reapers Local storms in North Da-
caused the lodging of considerable
grain. Satisfactory yields are gener-
ally indicated over the southern por-
tion. Complaints of shrunken grain
are general from Washington and west
ern Oregon
The previously reported excellent
condition of corn continues generally
throughout the principal corn produc-
ing states, and also on the Atlantic
coast and the eastern Gulf districts.
Wind storms blew down considerable
corn in Nebraska, Missouri, Arkansas
and Ohio.
In some counties in Kansas and gen.
orally throughout the crop is in need
of rain if-s'a
While cotton has improved in por-
tions Of the central and western dis
tricts. the crop as whole has suffered
deterioration, which is most marked in
the eastern districts. Rust and she'd
ding are extensive throughout the belt,
and dry, hot weather has proved in
furious over much of Texas, where pre-
mature opening is reported. Boil Wee
wills in that states as a rule are dimin-
ishing. The crop has improved in Ar
kansas, some in Texas, in portion of
Louisiana, in northern Alabama and in
a few places in South Carolina. Pick
ing is quite general in central and
southern Texas and over the southern
portion of. the eastern districts.
The apple crop is in rather bad
shape, reports giving prospects of a
small crop this year.

CATARRHAL TROUBLES PREVALENT.
Spring Months Cause Sickness Breathe
HyOmei, and Be Cured Of caiarrh.

Catarrhal troubles are more COM
mon At this season than at any other
time of the year The sudden changes
that come during che spring months
are productive Of many cases Of
catarrh that without proper treat
ment will become chronic.
The pleas8ntest, most convenient,
and only scientific method for the
treatment and cure OF catarrh, Is
Hyomei. Simply put twenty drops
in the little pocket inhaler that
comes with every outfit, and then
breathe IL for three minutes four
times a day.
No dangerous drugs or alcoholic
connections are taken Into the sys-
tenn when Hyomei Is used. Breathed
through the inhaler, the balsamic
fragrance Of HyOmei penetrates to
the most remote cells OF the nose and
throat, and thus kills the catarrhal
germs, heals the irritated mucous
membrane, and gives complete and
permanent cure.
Thousands OF testimonials have
been given as 20 the astonishing
cures made by this remedy. J. ;.
Nugent, treasurer OF the New York
Life Insurance Company, writes:
"Hyomei has completely cured my
daughter OF catarrh, from which she
has been a sufferer for years.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
but one dollar, and as the inhaler
will last a lifetime and there Is suiii-
Client Hyomei for several weeks
treatment, IL Is the most economical
catarrhal remedy known Extra
bottles can be procured for 90 cents.
Ask T.. j. Jenkins 90 show you the
strong guarantee under which he
sells HyOmei.
