6roadview patronage that this
member Of the Big Four concluded
to retaliate. This is how Il Was
done:
This morning a Broadview wagon
was told to trail Elston's wagon In
the Kenwood district and knock
him wherever possible After El-
ston made a delivery the Broad
view man went in and gave spiel.
Among other things he said the
Elston milk was bad, that his cows
were not tested like the Broadview
cows, that persons taking his milk
were doing so at the risk of their
health, etc. After one of these
spiels, one woman remarked:

manager to offer the woman at the

"Oh, that is a lie," said the
dairyman, printed In The Prcss!"
The Broadview, however. has never
challenged the statement,
At another home the Broadview

Crop conditions of the nation to
August 2 are told in special dis
patches to The Press today, and
are not depressing. There has
been distinct improvement since
July. These dispatches account for
market fIurries during July. A
heat wave here; too much rain
there; drouth in another locality
these were Immediately reflected
on the boards Of trade, but the eli
matic conditions, as the following
dispatches show, were confined to
small sections, parts Of states, and
damage here was more than re-
paired elsewhere. So, truth is, the
people of the United States may
again look for a good harvest, even
a bumper harvest in the fall Of
1910.
Today's reports to The Press fin
ally put to flight the bogey wheat
yarns in some parts of the North
