|IOWA'S SPLENDID CROP
CORN BEYOND DANGER FROM
FROsT---AN ABUNDANT SUPPLY
OF FORAGE.

Des Noines, Iowa, Oct. 4.-The past week
svas warm and favorable, the average temper
AZURE being above the normal. The cool wave
at the close of the week resulted in light to
heavy frosts in the northern and central portions,
but the damage to the belated portion of the
corn crop will be 1nappreciable. The month
of September was exceptionally favorable, serv-
Ing as fitting close to an unusually productive
season. The corn crop is beyond danger Of
material harm by frost, and the bulk of it has
not been damaged by windstorms. The total
yield gives promise Of being considerably above
the output of any previous year in the history
OF the state. The other cereal crops are very
good in yield and quality. %
The state has abundant supply Of forage
OF all kinds Pasturage is fairly good, and fair
progress has been made in fall blowing. The
crops of apples and peaches have been some
what beyond expectations. AS WHOLE the sea-
son of 1906 has been sufficiently bountiful. s.

Can Use Is Millions a Year.

Washington, Sept. 3 -Estimates
for canal appropriations for 1907
are now In course Of preparation at
the Office Of the isthmian canal com.
mission. It is said that IS million
dollars year can be expended iu-
diciously. From present indications
these estimates will be about the
last to be made for what IL known
as the canal plant. II 10 believed
that all the necessary locomotives,
fat cars, dredgss, steam shovels and
other equipment Of an expansive
character will have been assembled
on the isthmus by the end Of 1907.
Il does not follow, however, that
Congress will be asked TO appfopIi-
ate any less sum Of money annually
than has bsen needed In the past.
With the continuous enlarging plant
. greater proportion Of the money
will be used in paying for labor, re-
sulting In o much better showing In
actual canal digging.

Saw Sweetheart Die
and Courage Failed.

Houston, Tex, Sept. S-W. s.
Baxter, appointment planter near
Archer, and his wife were TO leave
with their daughter Pearl, aged 30,
for So. Louis on an extended north
ern tour, after which the girl was 30
be placed In a seminary. This was
In order to break up her love affair,
to which her parents objected. Pearl
pleaded with her parents, saying she
preferred death to separation from
her f1ance, but at length she seemed
to give In and assisted In arrange
ments for their departure.
She eluded the vigilance OF the
family for lew minutes one night,
and met her sweetheart In q cane
patch near the house. IL was there
arranged that they should die TO-
gether. Miss Baxter remained awake
throughout the night, and at 4
o'clock left her room, going to the
clandestine meeting. Her sweet.
heart was there and produced two
two ounce bottles Of csrbolic acid.
IL was sgreed that they should drink
at the same time and die In each
others arms.
After the goodbys both raised the
bottles to their mouths, but he tar.
ried and watched her swallow the
poison. The agonies Of death spread
ing over her lace unnerved him, and,
thr owing away his bottle, he hastily
retrested. The parents OF Miss Bax
ter found their daughter dead an
hour later.

The Farmer and the Tariff.

greatly exercised. As the Journal
puts Ii, "the editor OF an Indian Ter,
ritory paper can not see how the
tariff protects the farmer Con.
oerning the Indian Territory editor
the Journal says: He Is very prob.
ably honest In bis position, though
he is putting charity to somewhat
OF q strain when he declares that "a
farmer who can be q republican IL
one OF the curiosities Of the political
situation"
That reminds US Of q story which
Judge Joseph E. Ong, formerly Of
Nebraska, but now Of Colorado, was
wont to tell.
A democratic orator was sd.
dressing a crowd In Indiana and
said: Now am going to put to
y OF farmers o question which want
you to think over for several days,
q nd then II you can give an answer
write to me at my home. The ques.
ton is: What is there a farmer
sells which he gets more for, and
what is there a farmer buys which
he gets for less, on account OF high
pro tective tariff Think OF this and
answer at your leasure."
Several weeks later this democratic
or ator received q letter from an old
farmer, who had been one OF his
audience, and the letter was about
as follows: "Desr Sir: When you
were down In Indiana several weeks
ago, you asked what is there a
farmer sells that he gets more for,
and What is there q farmer buys that
he gets for less, on account OF 9 high
protective tariff" We'll, sir, l have
been thinking about that question
ever since, and l have come to the
conclusion that there isn't a dar.
darned thing. "-Commoner.
