state Crops Far Below AVERAGE,

Farm crops in Wisconsin have
been so badly damaged by the
lack of rain that their condition
ranges from SO to IS per cent of the
average for this time of the year, ac
cording to the monthly report issued
by Secretary John NJ True of the
state board of agriculture.
Unless a general rain comes soon
the crop situation will become much
more serious, Secretary True believes
His report is as follows, being based
on returns received.
There was no general rain during
the month of July. There were. how.
ever, slight showers in most parts Of
the state that have saved growing
crops from complete destruction. Pas
lures have suffered most, and are now
furnishing little feed for stock, this
shortage being supplied by feeding of
hay and grain feeds.
Enough thrashing of grain has been
done to show that the yield Of wheat,
rye and barley will not fall far below
the normal yield. Oats, though mate
rally injured upon sandy or dry land,
will furnish a better yield than was
anticipated on the last report.
Corn planted upon good, fertile
fields, and well cultivated, has shown
remarkable degree of vitality, and
with general rain now would make a
fair crop.
Early potatoes are small, and the
yield is light. Later potatoes are al
ready suffering from want of rain,
and the crop will be materially short
ened even if rain comes soon.
Early planted tobacco is blossoming
without a desirable growth of leaf,
while the late planted is still small
and not promising.
Sugar beets are doing fairly we'll,
though making slow growth.
The following percentages of condl.
ton of crops IS reported by CORE
spondents:

Says SEEMING Will Not Destroy Carp.

Gays ScinIn9 VIII moi destroy carp.
Prof George Wagner Of the I'niver
sity of Wisconsin, an acknowledged
expert on everything that relates to
fish life, states that in his opinion
ten years of SEEMING in the lakes of
Madison would fail to make any ap.
preciable difference in the supply of
carp. Capt. G. w. Rickeman, state
game warden, insists that constant
SEEMING soon will eXterminate the
large carp and in time will reduce &c
minimum the number of these fish
in the lakes and streams around Mad
ison He also insists that the carr
do more harm to game fish than pos
sibly can be done by the use of large
zines. Prof. Wagner, in a polite way
intimates that Mr.. RiCkeman does not
know what he is talking about.
In my opinion you could seine
these lakes for the next ten years
and fail to make an appreciable i'm
preston upon the number of carp

that are caught in carp seine die o.

Horses at State Fair.

Wisconsin breeders of Percheron
horses will make an effort to dominate
in the classes of that breed during the
coming state fair The present inter
est in the Percheron breed is due to
the effort of the Percheron Society of
America and the Percheron Registry
company, the secretaries of both
having notified Secretary True of the
Wisconsin state board of agriculture
that they will offer prizes for exhib-
its made by breeders or Wisconsin
farmer owners
The Percheron Society of America
offered $3.50 In cash and the state fair
board offers a similar amount as spe-
cial prizes in addition of the regular
premium list, and besides this, seven
gold medals and seven medals are
offered in special classes by the
Percheron society A champion cup
valued at 500 and $40 in cash are
also offered by the Percheron Society
OF America for the champion stud.
owned by the exhibitor.
The Percheron Registry company
through It's secretary, Charles c.
Glenn, Columbus, O., offers II gold
and II silver medals to be awarded
as special prizes among the classes Of
this breed. The American Shire
Horse association offers four silver
cups for Shire stations and mares, and
the American Horse Breeders asso-
citation offers trophy valued at 800
years old or under.
