SENATOR CHARLES SMITH
CONSENTS TO MAKE run

At the earnest solicitation Of his
many friends throughout the Thirty
second senatorial district. and in many
other parts of the state, Senator Chas.
Smith of Hubbell, dean of the Michi-
gan senate for a number of years, this
afternoon announced that he had re-
considered his decision to retire from
public life and would return to the leg
islature to represent this district If
the voters so desire. Senator Smith
announced some time ago that he
would not be a candidate and such
was his purpose, until pressure was
brought to bear upon him.
The Thirty second senatorial dis
trict was never more ably represented
in the Michigan senate than by Mr..
Smith and IL is believed that his nom
ination and election are assured. This
will insure the upper peninsula of one
of the strongest delegations in the leg
islature that has ever represented this
section of the state.

Continued Heat Has Damaged the
Fields in Northwest But Fair
Crops Will be Harvested
in Most Sections.
COOL MONTH WILL HELP some
Only in Isolated Districts Has the Loss
Been Over Fifty Per Cent. and
Fair Crop is Expected
Generally.

Saint Paul. Mimi, July e.-onficial
reports from the grain producing sec
tions of the Northwest do not indi-
cate that the entire wheat crop has
suffered the damage previously re-
ported In isolated districts, some OF
which are OF considerable size, the
crop has already suffered such damage
as TO reduce the probable yield to 40
per cent. Of last years crop. over the
Northwest generally there is admitted
damage, but the careful inspection
and a score of wheat experts during
the past ten days indicates that to pre-
dict half a crop is to credit all the
damage reports which have come in.
The experts are inclined to believe
that while farmers in some sections
have suffered a total loss, the total
wheat production of the Northwest
this year will show a fair crop while
many large sections will show a fair
TO good crop. A large crop is not ex-
pected because of the heat of the last
three weeks. Reports have come In
from a few districts showing that
wheat less than a foot in height is
heading out.
Weather conditions have improved
and a cooler July in thes opinion of
experts who have just come in from
the wheat districts viii make immense
progress towards reducing the dam
age. Continued hot weather will on
the other hand largely increase the
loss. Rain has fallen in many sections
an dover the entire Northwest there
has been a noticeable irnprovement
