LORIMER's DINNER
President Taft Is Expected to Grace the
Feast

In a Chicago telegram of recent date
it is announced that United States SEN
ator Lorimer is to be the guest at one of
the biggest dinners that has been given
in Chicago in many years.
The occasion is to furnish a rebuke
by the friends of the senator to Colonel
Roosevelt, who recently declined to sit
at the same table with Senator Lorimer,
and in order to accentuate the disap-
prova1 with which the friends of the
senator regard the action of Colonel
Roosevelt they intend to ask President
Taft to sit at the head of the table
All of the plans for the dinner are
tentative and neither the time nor place
of holding the banquet has yet been de-
termined upon The date will depend
largely upon whether President Taft
can accept the invitation and when it
will be convenient for him to come to
Chicago.
As is generally known to readers of
Newspapers, Colonel Roosevelt declined
to sit with Lorimer for the reason that
he is charged with having acquired his
seat in the United States Senate by
bribery and corrupt means.

WEATHER BULLETIN
FORECAST OF STORMS TO CROSS
THE CONTINENT.
LATE NOVEMBER FROSTS
Expects Cotton Crop Weather to Be
Favorable and Top Growth the Better
Part of the Crop-Great Improvement
in Texas Grip Confidently Expected.
Copyrighted 1910 by w. T. Foster.

copyrighted 1910 by w. T. Foster
Washington, D. c., Sept. I7.-Last
bulletin gave forecasts of disturbance to
cross the continent 10 to %, warm wave
I8 to 22, cool wave FL to IS. This dis
turbance is expected to bring killing
frosts to some parts Of the northern
corn sections, and as there is much late
corn that can not mature before Octo-
Der I, these frosts will probably do
much damage to that crop September u
to 10 and p to "a.
The elevator people and big speculat
ors have been pressing corn and other
grain down because they want to load
tip. Unfortunately many farmers have
been compelled to sell their grain be-
cause of lack of storage cribs and bins
and this has helped to run grain below
its natural level
The worlds assured supply and the
well known demand, the good financial
condition generally, the increasing popu-
lations, the large increase of young
hogs that must be fed, some mad win
ter weather that is ahead of us, and par
ticularly the great failure. in the hay
product will surely cause better grain
prices than now prevail I hope that
farmers who have been able to hold
their grain thus. far win continue to hold
it till they can get fair prices.
Cotton is high enough and planters
will do well to sell at first opportunity.
I expect cotton crop weather to be fav-
orable from this on. Frosts will come
late in November and top growth of
cotton will be the best part of the crop.
A great Improvement in the Texas crop
may be confidently expected.
The next disturbance will reach the
Pacific coast about September 20, cross
the Pacific slope by close of 24, great
central valleys rs to ~, eastern states
28. Warm wave will cross Pacific slope
about %. great central valleys IS, east
ern sections ~. Cool wave will cross
the Pacific slope about 26, great central
valleys 28, eastern sections 80.
This disturbance will bring a great
high temperature wave over all the
country, rains in many sections and
close with killing frosts that will go far
ther south than those of II to 10 and 22
to I'd. These frosts of last days of
September will catch some very late
corn and will probably close up the corn
crop. Corn not mature by September
28 will be no good except for fodder.
A serious mistake has been made in
estimating this years corn crop, mis-
take similar to that made last year. The
proportion of soft corn this year will
be very large.
Not far from September Fl to Oc-
tober I severe storms may be expected
both on the continent and On the Gulf
Of Mexico or Caribbean Sea. Tropical
storms or hurricanes will be probable
about those dates. Some parts of the
earth will get an electrical shock, or
storm, near October L
Next bulletin will give general fore
casts of October weather and will be
of most interest on account of fall
blowing, sowing winter wheat, picking
cotton and threshing spring wheat.

Heed the Warning
Many Montpelier People Have
Done So.

When the kidneys are sick they give
unmistakable warning that should not
be ignored. By examining the urine
and treating the kidneys upon the 6rst
sign of disorder, many days of suffering
may be saved. Sick kidneys expel
q dark, ill-smelling urine, full of
"brickdust" sediment and painful in
passage. Sluggish kidneys cause dull
pain in the small of the back, head
'ches, dizzy spells, tired languid feel
ings and frequent rheumatic twinges.
Doan's Kidney Pills are for the kid
neys only; they cure sick kidneys. and
rid the blood Of uric poison. If you
suffer from any of the above symptoms
you can use no better remedy
Montpelier people recommend Doans
Kidney Pills.
Harrison Hess, of Montpelier, Idaho,
says:
Il can recomend Doan's Kidney Pills
as the best kidney medicine TO be had,
for they have been used in our family
for the past several years with the most
satisfactory results. Whenever an OPP
portunity occurs, we advise trial of
Deans Kidney Pills. knowing that
they can be relied upon to relieve Kid
