Unfortunately, a large number OF
these catarrh remedies, especially the
ones prescribed by the doctors, contain

These remedies give temporary relief.

BIG CROP OF WINTER WHEAT
JONES-INGLlS REPORT BRUSHES
AWAY ALL LATE TALK OF
DAMAGE.

Minneapolis, July III. V. Jones
the Minneapolis crop estimator. who,
in company with John Inglis, has been
covering the winter wheat fields OF
the United States, issued his annual
report yesterday. Mr.. Jones finds
that the country has raised 100000
600 bushels of winter wheat, the larg-
est crop ever produced.
In view of the dry periods earlier in
the season, when Kansas and Nebras-
ka stood in need of rains, which after
wards came, there was much talk OF
drouth, and the railroads and financial
world stood at one time in fear of
possible crop calamity and lessened
business activity in the fall.
The Jones figures would Indicate
greater opportunity this year than
ever for large Southwest railroad
earnings and general expansion.
Southwestern markets at st. Louis
and Kansas City received the report,
which was sent out from Minneapolis
about noon, with satisfaction.
The grain trade in general waited
for it, but Wall street evinced as
great an interest in view Of recent ap-
prehension that important damage
might have resulted in the Southwest
grain states. New York waited for
the figures, and a summary of the re-
port was cabled to London and Liver
pool.
The crop Of 100000 bushels of
winter wheat is made, and loss Of
yield can only result now from wet
harvest. The winter wheat crop last
year was about 3S0000,0O0 bushels.
