Inc IollOWlnB Is the Ofhcial report
Of the Ohio Department of Agricul-
ture on crops and live Stock, July 1:
The following report represents
area, prospect and condition of crops
named, as compiled from returns re-
ceived from official correspondents of
the department:
Wheat-Prospect compared with
normal yield, SO per cent.
Wheat-Damaged by joint worm, 6
per cent.
Wheat-Area sown last fall, 1,721,-
030 acres.
Wheat-Original area plowed up, 2
per cent.
Wheat-Estimate area for the har.
vest, 1,6S2,874 acres.
Barley-Prospect compared with
normal yield, so per cent.
Rye-Prospect compared with nor.
NAL yield, 94 per cent.
Oats-Prospect compared with nor
NAL yield, 104 pc rcent.
Corn-Area in 1909, 3,O5O,S25 acres.
Corn-Area compared with last
year, SO per cent.
Corn-Total estimated area for
1910, 3,006,115 acres.

Wheat shows the same prospective
yield for the State as a whole as esti-
mated one month ago, namely, SO per
cent. of standard computed upon
basis of Is bushels per acre being
standard, represented by 100 per cent.
The present report shows that per
cent of the original area seeded to
wheat last fall was plowed up in the
Spring, hence the total production for
the 1910 harvest shows a decline of
532,176 bushels in comparison with
the estimated production of last
month. From returns received from
ll5S official correspondents of this De-
partment, we now estimate that for
the present harvest there remains l.
6S2,S74 acres, and this should produce
an average of IA bushels per acre, or
23,476,192 bushels for the State as a
whole. The estimated production of
wheat from the harvest of 1909 was
21,355,142 bushels, an average produc-
tion of 16 bushels per acre. The dam
age to the crop by joint worm is not
as serious as earlier predicted, being
estimated at but 6 per cent for the
State. In some Counties the damage
is quite serious, but in a majority of
the counties it is of no consequence.
The harvest will soon be in full blast.
when the quality of the crop can be
definitely determined.
The prospect for oats is now esti-
mated at 104 per cent, based upon
standard of 100 per cent representing
a production of 80 bushels per acre.

The Republican party at large is in
a weaving way. II is answerable for the
state OF the nation, and the State Of
Maine Is part OF the nation. The one

extravaganza and expressed IN all sorts
OF the politically queer has worked the

New York. Sept l3-The Outlook Office
to-day dropped its air OF isolation and
became the harried sanctum OF the con-
tributing editor. Col. Roosevelt chugged
I'D from Oyster Bay in his machine right
after breakfast and went into a two
hours conference with his fellow editors.
At the end OF IL he said: I have re-
turned from a hygienic vacation and am

Frederick Paxson. Of the Atlanta board
OF trade. managed TO get in few words
with Mr.. Roosevelt in regard 10 the lat
ter's contemplated Southern visit, and
Gen. George Loud. Of the G.. A. r.. of
this city, also gained the coveted ear.
The colonel was mum to the reporters
on the subject Of the Maine elections and
had nothing TO say about the primaries.

tative Cocks talked together at some
length. The Representative T. going on

colonel had nothing 10 say about that
call either, although it lasted for some
time. The return TO oyster Bay was
made at o'clock in the afternoon.
Asked About GrIscOm.
Lloyd Griscom, county chairman, was
quoted as having voluntarily told the
reporters after Mondays conference at
Sycamore Hnl that President Taft had
arrayod himself with Col Roosevelt in
the fight OF the progressives in this
State. ard that Mr.. Griscom made the
inference that he had this statement
from the colonel.
When the colonel was asked about this
to-day, he said that he had seen no such
statement, but that II such a one had
been made it was an exaggeration OF
the facts IN the case. He did not re-
member that he told Mr.. Griscom that
the President had arrayed himself on the

HOLDS MAINE IS UNCHANGED
Senator Beverage Declares People
Are Just the Same.

Indianapolis, Sept. Ex-senator Bever-
idge read the election returns from Maine
and then said;
The result in Maine was neither Dem
ocratic nor Republican; It was nonparti-
san. am familiar with the people Of
Maine. because I have spent several sum-
mers there. They are conservative, well
Informed, and determined.
The old-time politicians absolutely re-
fused 10 admit the tremendous progress.
mental and moral, among the people, and
the complete abandonment by the people
Of the old-time partisan method.
Both Maine Senators and all the Rep
resentatives from Maine were ardent sup
porters Of the Payne-Aldrich tariff bill.
and Senator Hale has been its most de-
termined advocate and defender.
Therefore. the voters Of Maine have
repudiated this leadership which so en-
phatically misrepresented them. and the
only way they could see an opportunity
to do this was by voting for the op-
position candidates.

Roosevelt's candidacy for temporary
chairman OF the convention against Vice
President Sherman, said Barnes, little
realize the rising tide In the popular dis
approval which Nr. ROosevelts speeches
In the West have caused. His assumption
OF power is looked upon with wonder
ment. His ability 10 arouse the passions
Of the mob is dreaded in every quarter
Of the State. and every day the menace
OF his political ascendency 10 business
and 10 labor is more thoroughly appre-
ciated.
Il do not believe that his name will be
presented 10 the convention against the
recommendation Of the State committee
for Mr.. Sherman. II u is. It will as GER
tainly be voted down IN the cause OF true
Republicanism. as that convention will
convene. thoughtful men al over the
state are aroused to the resrettable fact
that Mr. Roosevelt is to-day the most
dangerous foe 70 the world OF business
and labor in he United States. They
hope with earnest soIicitude that the Re
publican party in this State will not in
its convention permit him to be the arbi-
tor Of Its policies and the mentor OF its
thoughts.

Possibly Gen. Frank II. Hitchcock,
during his stay in Arizona. has taken
occasion 70 deny that he has an aspir-
alton to come to the Senate from that
State-to-be
In an interview. he said:
"One Of the amusing incidents Of my
present visit has been the report set
afoat by some OF my Democratic friends
that I am a candidate for United States
Senator from Arizona. Z cannot imagine
that the authors OF the rumor take IL
any more seriously than those who read
II IN the Democratic papers, or that any
one will be surprised at my statement
that I am not a candidate for Senator
or any other office.
Would Wipe Out Deficit.
Il expect TO continue as Postmaster
General throughout the remainder OF
this administration. and It Is my ambi-
ton before It's close to place the postal
service on a self-sustaining basis for the
first time IN It's history. The unpreee-
dented reduction OF eleven and one-half
millions of dollars accomplished during
the last year in the postal deficit has
encouraged me 10 believe that within
the next year or two the entire deficit
can be wiped out
Furthermore the organization OF
a postal savings system for the United
States. which has been begun under
my administration Of the department.
and in which President Taft is so deep
~ interested. Is a task or tremendous
importance. and one which am am
bilious 20 complete during my term
as Postmaster General Plans for the
introduction Of the system are rapidly
nearing completion, and actual bank
ing operations will commence at an
early date.
During the coming year the sery
ice will be extended as rapidly as pos
sble throughout the United States.
In my opinion not one OF the important
measures thus far enacted in Presi-
dent Tafrs administration viii prove
to be more widely popular or more
generally beneficial in its effect than
the postal savings law.
"In the case Of both the postal saw
ings and the Statehood laws. the Taft
administration has been successful IN
securing the passage OF much desired
legislation which for many years has
been sought in vain from Congress.
am gratifed TO find that the people
Of Arizona appreciate so fully what
President Taft. in the face OF great
obstacles, has accomplished for them
IN the matter OF Statehood"
Postmaster General Hitchcock. while
in Arizona. is the guest OF Delegate 70
Congress Ralph \. Cameron. and will
spend some days yet in Arizona and
New Mexico on hunting trips.
