FERING.

If there IS any one thing just now
causing more talk than the political
or the baseball situation it is
the weather situation The weather
situation has become important
acute-serious 1t is just one month
since a rain of measurable quantity
fell in Indiana and everything from
the hay crop ITO the hay fever victim
is suffering. Two classes only have
been benefited magnates
and throat specialists.
This 1905 drought, however, is not
SO serious, according to statistics, as
some of fits predecessors have been
that OF 1897, for example, when July
August and Septembr each had about
half inch of rain. There are many
popular mistaken impressions con-
corning the extent of the present DIR,
spell. Instead OF the State having
gone for eight weeks without rain, i
has been Just four weeks.
