Germ no Longer Dark
Households Fair

KANSAS CITY, Mo-. Aug. 1.-The
highest temperature that has prevail
ed since 1901 wrought damage to the
extent of many millions of dollars In
the southwest last week.
The effect of this bighting drouth
is more evident through the corn
belt of Kansas and Oklahoma.
II was estimated July ! that the
crop In this district would reach 243,-
100000 bushels. The heat has re-
duced this estimate all the way from
a fourth to a third, and in some coun-
ties of Oklahoma from rs to 80 per
cent. The northern half of Okla
homa seems TO be the hardest hit.
This would seem to reduce Okla
homa's prospects from 100000
bushels to all the way from 100000
to 130.000,000 The wind burns only
hit In parts OF Kansas.
Corn In tassel Is generally killed,
and the small late plants are badly
hurt. The intermediate growth seems
to be faring the best and Is resisting
the drouth.
There is moderate damage to corn
in Nebraska and Iowa, rains having
afforded considerable relief Nebraska
has prospects for 270,000,000 bushels
OF corn, and Missouri for 257.000,000
Iowa has been having provident
rains and her chances are good. II
looks like crop of 31s.000,000 bush
els In that state. Illinois hopes fol
456 100000 bushels, and Indiana Ill,
100000 bushels.
The bumper crops In states not
touched by the heat waves will more
than overcome the loss in Oklahoma
and Kansas. For the seven states Of
Illinois, Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska
Oklahoma, Iowa and Texas, the est
mate for the 1910 corn crop Is 1872,
OO0, 900 bushels, total increase o.
156, 100000 bushels over the 1870!
crop.
AS for wheat, the southwestern
acreage has heavily increased, ant
the result of tho thrashings in eacf
of these states Is exceeding expecta
tions, The quality is excellent. and
any wheat losses in the northwest are
probably more than made good here
All states report bumper crops o
oats. rye, barley and fax, and fail

HARVEST OF 1910
IN GO0O SHAPE
Corn Will Be Bumper and Wheat
Output Is Fair-0ther Crops
Will Be Heavy.

The crop condition of the nation
on Aug. 1, as told In special dis
patches to The Times today, are not
depressing. There has been dis
tinct Improvement since July 1.
These dispatches account for the
market furries during July. A heat
wave here, too much rain there,
drouth in another locality, were I'M
mediately reflected on the floors OF
boards OF trade. But these climatic
conditions, as the following dis-
patches show, were confined to small
sections, parts of states. and damage
here was more than repaired else
where.
So the truth Is that the people OF
the United States may again look Tor
a good harvest-even a bumper har-
yest-in the fall of 1910.
Today's reports TO The Times final-
" put TO flight the DOGGY" wheat
yarns from the northwest. Wheat In
Minnesota and the Dakotas will har-
vest IL bushels TO the acre, instead
OF three TO eight, as predicted a
month ago.
Rain did some damage TO tobacco
and cotton in the south, but Texas
will make the total of cotton bales
larger than last year, and tobacco
is not far behind. The lack OF rain
burned out large tracts of corn In
some parts of Kansas and adjoining
states. but the total crop OF the great
corn district will not be more than
l50,00O,0 900 bushels behind last year.
And that isn't much when the corn
product of the country Is figured an
nually by the billion bushels.

Strikers Are on
Duty As Deputies

DURAND, Mich, Aug. 1.-Seventy-
five deputies, drawn from the ranks
of the strikers, are on duty today to
protect the property Of the Grand
Trunk Railroad Co. Needing the pro-
test OF the citizens, all the troops have
been Withdrawn and Durand has once
more taken on its usual air. Every
thing Is quiet.
A meeting was called and the strik-
ers volunteered to supply rs men for
duty as deputies. Sheriff Watson ac-
copied Immediately and Is satisfied
with the situation.
Shortly after the strikers rendered
their services, Sheriff Watson COM
municated to Adjutant-General w. T.
McGurrin his official notification that
the troops might leave. Accordingly
the notice to break camp was sent to
Major Earl A. Stewart, and at 1880
Sunday morning the battalion entrain-
ed for Grand Rapids.
Shortly before the time for de-
parture, after the tents were struck,
last dress parade was given for the
benefit of the villagers, who turned
out to bid the soldiers farewell. and
express their gratitude for the enter
tainment given during the week. From
all parties was heard the wish that
a few more days might be spent in
Durand. -~-
I'VE were mighty mad when you
came, and did not give you a very
kindly reception. but now that you are
leaving, we wish you To. stay" said
Prosecuting Attorney Northway.

able ones, and II II could be arranged
to have you come every year, should
say that steps to that end be taken.
Durand has been put on the map
through the agency of the National
guards, and a sight never seen to
many of the villagers before, has
been afforded"
The feeling OF the citizens against
the special officers placed here by
the railroad company led the sheriff
to ask that they be removed. This
was not done, however, but he was
assured by Assistant Superintendent
Bement that no trouble would be
made by these men, and that II the
citizens did not wish to have them
patrol the tracks, they would be used
solely as guards to travel on all
trains for protection TO the crews.

IF COAL RUNS OUT WE
WILL BURN THE EARTH
Geological Survey Hands Out Some
Consoiing Suggestions on the
Use of Peat.

WASHINGTON. Aug. Careful
estimates made by the United States
geological survey put the nations
supply of coal at enough TO last less
than $50 years. The year 2050 Is set
as the date when we must quit burn
ing coal, because there won't be any
more coal to burn.
What then shall we burn?
The geological survey, TO Offset the
alarming forecast or the failure OF
the coal supply. suggests that we may
burn the earth.
According TO figures gathered by
the survey there are In this country
peat bess aggfegatiHg ,e9e, 200 acres
and averaging nine feet deep. In
Ohio, In Trumbull, Summit, Shelby.
Darke and other counties, there are
extensive boys that produce excellent
fuel peat: I'm Michigan there are boys
yielding 2,400 tons of peat to the
acre, while in Florida and elsewhere
there are other great stretches of bog
suitable for fuel.
Europe uses 10000 900 tons Of peat
annually. mostly for domestic pur'
poses. There they are beginning
however. to use IL for supplying pow
err OF electric plants. II IL especially
fitted for supplying fuel for gas pro
ducing internal combustion power
plants, and II Is this way the future
of peat lies. American peat won't
be sun dried at home. as is the peat
OF the Irish cotter. but II will be scien
tifically dried and compressed into
bricks and used for making gas
which In turn will be used for driving
motors which will drive dynamos fol

distribution.
Prof. Davis, OF the geological sur
vey, believes that the time Is near a
hand when cities located near pea
Dogs will establish power plants clos,

been drawn for such plant to suppl,

The men, however, no matter how
much they may wish to be back at

than collectively. 1t won't be long,

at the standard OF wages demanded,

According to the trainmen, the
Grand Trunk has reason to regret hir-
ing a certain strike-breaking conduc-
tor. who was put on the run between
Windsor and Buffalo. The trainmen
say this substitute collected through
tickets from passengers going beyond
Detroit and Buffalo and scalped them
for a sum aggregating more than
$500. He was solicited by the strik.
! ing trainmen in Windsor TO quit his

Wait until get back to Buffalo
and you'll never see me again"
This statement was made about the
middle of last week and the strike
breaker kept his promise, having quit

are costly nuisance In Upper Mich
gan and their determination is de-
handed by farmers, iurnbermen and
fishermen. The action OF the state
legislature In enacting a law protect
ing the animals for further term OF
years Is not relished by many people.
There Is no doubt that beaver are be-
ing killed year In and year out for
their pelts, yet their numbers have
increased very largely the past dec
ade and there are probably hundreds
OF thousands of the animals In the
upper peninsula. One OF the largest
beaver dams in the region Is located
near Witch lake, south OF Republic.
The beaver-house covers more than
half an acre and contains hundreds OF
cords of wood The water IN the creek
has been backed up for many miles
and many acres of timber lands have
been flooded. ..s.-s..a ,s..i.4,.t.
4 II has been the contention of the
friends of these industrious animals
who have been instrumental In secur-
ing for them protective legislation
that beavers are harmless. but owners
of land hold decided opinion TO the
contrary. In addition TO destroying
much timber In the erection Of their
mammoth homes and for food the
backing up of the water has flooded
the timber lands. This winter will
ultimately kill all this green timber.
While II may be true that the beaver
does not eat fish. 1t Is a fact that the
fish leave stream which the beavers
colonize. The dams effectually bar
the passage of the fish up and down
the rivers and creeks and make the
water stagnant. resulting in the trout
leaving the streams To escape the pol
luted water In many cases where
the fish cannot escape. death follows.
Large colonies of beaver are To be
found on most OF the rivers In the
majority of the upper peninsula coun-
ties. In some instances these i'm
mense beaver-houses have hung up
drives OF logs. Where blasting has
been resorted to. the industrious beav-
er soon repairs the damage. 1t Is
the contention of woodsmen that the
law protecting the animals was en-
acted for sentimental reasons and with
no idea OF the immense damage the
animals are capable of doing.
