IOWA CROP PROSPECTS.

Cedar Rapids Republican, man
VINO travelled through northern Iowa
lately stated yesterday that he had
been surprised at the good crop pros
poets everywhere. The small grain is
doing we'll in spite of the dry weather.
The cool weather has not been at all
detrimental to 1t and now that it is
under way it will not injure it at all.
The ground for corn planting mas been
carefully prepared and the fields
that are now being planted to corn
were never in better shape, being in
good filth and free from weeds. The
two things that have suffered the most
are the meadows and the pastures.
There has not been rain enough to
start these as promptly as the farm
ers have desired The prospects are
for both OF these to be short, in spite
of what rains and weather may be
from now on. But a scarcity of hay
can generally be supplied by cutting
corn and other fodder. The pastures,
however, are necessary for the sum-
mering of cattle and also of sheep and
hogs. The farmers will feel the short
age IN these, but subsequent rains can
remedy the present deficiency.
On the whole, 1t may be stated, that
Iowa is in a fair crop condition, bet
ter than the average, if anything. OF
course, this is based on the presump.
ton that some time or other there
will be a cessation of cold and dry
weather. The drouth has already been
broken and during the present week
we nave had a few days which have
shown us what the sun can do in the
way of supplying warmth.
Everything is going to come out well
in the way of crops in Iowa, the state
which has never yet scored failure

trees and worked generally in the lum.

WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT IT.

At the convention Of the Illinois
Homeopathic Medical association,
which has just closed, a multitude Of
subjects was treated One physician
had it that the deformities of the
bridge of the nose was proof to him
that mankind once walked on all tours
like the ape. To another the deform-
tiles of the nose had another mean
ing. 1t was an evidence to him, he
said, of an unusual brain. The large
proboscis was forced out of shape by
excessive gray matter.
But the discussion of these subjects
was not lengthy. The Darwinian the
DRY was not one to stir such body
and the conclusion as to the effect of
large brain on the shape of the nose
was hardly interesting enough to draw
the doctors out. Then some one started
discussion on dress and ventured the
assertion that woman, In her attempts
to display her figure by means of the
artificial wiles Of the modern dress
maker, is demoralizing and pernici-
GUS influence upon mankind. The dis
cussion became lively, and 1t was all
one-sided. There was not member
present who would defend the dress
of the fair sex Even DR.. Cornelia De
Bey. one of the women members of the
profession joined in the denunciation
of her sex. She said:
"a low neck gown is not SO bad as
one that covers the neck but reveals
its lines. There is such thing as be-
ing afraid Of the naked truth. The
suggestions in dress are worse than
the body itself The present styles OF
dress adopted by women are not ar.
tistic or esthetic, and are an effete bar.

the discussion when they found them
selves to be of the one mind without
calling in few members of the WON
ems clubs to defend themselves.
