The blackberry crop, like the
huckleberry crop, is heavy all

The former victims of hay fever
dread the approach of all the glamor
of August and September, when the
joyous sunshine, the mellow fields, i
the ripening gardens and harvests
forecast for many people suffering
and anguish, says the Scranton
Times. Those who are immune and
unfamiliar with the ravages of hay
fever naturally disregard it's exist /
ence, and why should they not? But
many are assured of six weeks of
poignant distress unless they can
get away to corner of the country
where the dust and the pollen do not
abound. A dry harvest season
abounding in pollen from plants like
the golden rod, the wild aster, and |
the rag weed fills the atmosphere for |
miles with fine mixture, invisible to |
the eye, but vicious in its attacks on |
the sensitive mucous membrane of |
the nose and throat. Science has |
wrought wonders. 1t has trans
formed the surface of the planet,
and has dissected and remade man,
but it holds up its hands in utter
incapacity to cure a simple case of /
sniffles.
Mayor John Kuhbach disposed
of the cases of the two men, an old
one and young one, who came to

yermillion. The men were arrested
by Detective Spencer about sundown
