EVERY WISCONSIN
CROP A SUCCESS
NOTHING FAILS ON THE FARMS
THIS SEASON, SAYS
TRUE.
ONLY BAD FEATURE is STORMS
IN SOUTHWESTERN
COUNTIES.

Exceptionally fine prospects for
good crops in Wisconsin are an
bounced by John NJ. True, secretary
of the state board Of agriculture, in
his state crop report for July, issued
yesterday.
Crop reports last received at this
Office are uniformly encouraging,
says MI True, The absence Of any
general unfavorable conditions affect
ing growing crops, the exemption
from damage from severe storms,
except portions of Crawford and Grant
counties-and the fact that no crop
promises failure, causes a feeling OF
confidence on the part of the farmer.
seldom so generally noted.
Immense Hay Crop.
'An immense hay crop is now being
harvested, and quite part Of the
clover acreage has already been Sc
cured in good condition. Pastures
remain exceptionally good, and in
themselves are a great source of
wealth to the dairyman.
Winter grains are maturing with
out drawback and promise we'll. Bar
ley is heading nicely. Oats are free
from smut, and do not generally show
an oVergrowth causing loss from
lodging. Head crops are repol ed as
being generally in clean condition
from cultivation.
Good Stand of Corn.
Corn is still low, but the stand is
good and the plant thrifty, and farmers
are not discouraged at the outlook
Tobacco is doing we'll, except that
many fields have been injured ~ cut
worms. The early prediction of a
falling off in acreage of this crop is
verified, and the reduction is esti-
mated at from 10 to Is per cent. from
last season.
Sugar Beets Satisfactory.
Potatoes are doing well, though
bugs are plentiful. Peas promise a
fair crop Sugar beets are making
satisfactory growth.
Small fruits generally give pro
mise of being abundant,-While apples
are falling badly, and a fair crop
can only be expected from orchards
that have been thoroughly sprayed"
The condition of the principal farm
crops as shown by reports from cor
respondents, is given in the following
percentages, on a basis of 100:

To relieve the worst forms of
rheumatism, take teaspoonful of
the following mixture after each
meal and at bedtime:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one
half ounce, Compound Kargon,
one ounce; Compound Syrup Sar-
saparilla, three ounces.
The harmless ingredients can
be obtained from our home drug
gists and are easily mixed by
shaking them well in a bottle. Re-
lief is generally felt from the first
few doses.
This prescription, states a we'll
known authority, in a Cleveland
morning paper, forces the ciogged
up, inactive kidneys to filter and
strain from the blood the poison
GUS waste matter and uric acid
which causes rheumatism.
AS rheumatism is not only the
most painful and torturous dis
ease, but dangerous to life, this
simple recipe will no doubt be
greatly valued by many sufferers
here at home who should at once
prepare the mixture to get this re-
lief.
1t is said that a person who
would take this prescription regu-
larly, a dose or two daily, or even a
few times week. would never
have serious kidney or urinary
disorders or rheumatism.
Cut this ont and preserve it.
Good rheumatism prescriptions
which really relieve are scarce, in
deed, and when you need it, you
want it badly, Our druggists here
say that they will either supply
these ingredients or make the
mixture ready to take if any of
our readers SO prefer.
