FORTUNE FOR A CANTALOUPE CROP
Mr.. YaSOn of Albany Sells His at
Fine Price.

After shipping one car of cantaloupes
for which he received about 500, Mr..
A. P. Vason has sold the remainder of
his cantaloupe crop, just as it stood
in a 5O-acre field, for $4,000. The
purchaser was a well-known New
York commission house. Mr.. Vasons
cantaloupe field is one of the prettiest
in this vicinity. The vines are vigor-
Gus and well fruited, and the fruit it.
self is of excellent quality. The first
car shipped, as stated above, brought
about 800 in the market to which it was
consigned. Then followed the offer to
buy the remainder of the crop Just as it
stood in the 50-acre field The offer
| was accepted, the transaction was
closed, and now the fruit is being
gathered, packed and shipped by a
representative of the New York firm
which made the purchase. This, says
the Albany Herald, gives an excellent
idea of what a good cantaloupe crop is
worth when it is raised on Doughertv
county land and favored by good
kseasons

OUTLOOK is BRIGHT.
Standard Oils ViCe-PreSident Thinks
Business Conditions GOOD.

Declaring that Europe was good
enough to visit to study the dead past
but America was the country to live
in, II. H. Rodgers returned home
aboard the White Star liner Baltic,
with Mrs, Rogers. Mr.. Rogers said
that they had an enjoyable trip. He
took Mrs. Rogers to Nichy for the
waters and she had derived so much
benefit that he feared he would have to
go abroad again.
Europe, Mr.. Rogers said, turning to
business conditions, was apparently
very prosperous, and he added that
this is a good thing for America. He
said that confidence in Europe regard
ing the business situation here was in
creasing, and he thought this fact
would be felt in time, OF our own
business situation he said:
81 am, of course somewhat out of
touch with very recent conditions, but
from what l understand, the situation
seems to have improved since sailed.
81 thought some time ago that the
corner would be turned very soon and
that the situation be better. With
normal crops there is not the slightest
reason why business should not show
improvement. The prospects are very
bright for the future"
OF the conditions abroad he said:
"The people on the other side of the
Atlantic are enjoying prosperity, and
things with them are looking up, but
think they would appreciate it if they
had more of our kind of prosperity"

There is more Catarrh in this section
of the country than all other diseases
put together, and until the last few
years was supposed to be incurable.
For great many years doctors pro-
nounced it local disease and prescrib-

failing to cure with local treatment,
pronounced it lneurable. Science has
proven catarrh to be a constitutional
disease and therefore requires consti-
tutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
