Compromise Bill Passed by
Senate.

Combined in the same alliance that
resulted in the passage of a CON-
promise wooden tariff bill in the Senate
last week, the Democrats and Republi-
can insurgents of that body Tuesday
passed compromise farmers free list
bill.
The original House bill was first de-
feated and then reoffered in modified
form by Senator Kern of Indiana. AS
amended and finally adopted the bill
differed but little from the original.
The Kern compromise takes fresh
meat products out Of the free list bill
except such as come from countries
that admit certain American farm pro-
ducts duty free. The Senate earlier
had defeated Senator Bailcy's amend
ment. taking all meats out of the free
list bill.
The Kern amendment represented
the attempt to reconcile the Demo-
cratic interests with the insurgent Re-
publicans who believed some further
concessions should be obtained for
agricultural products.
Paynter, of Kentucky, voted for the
free list, Bradley voted against it.

Drought Did Much Damage.

The rains of the latter parts of sJuly
seem to have been sufficient in almost
all parts of the country to have done a
great deal of good to the growing
crops, says the Cincinnati Enquirer.
The drought was long and severe, and
murh damage resulted from the dry
weather and hot winds. Some of the
crops cannot fully recover, but practi-
callly all will be saved from total fail
ure.
There can be no doubt that growing
grain. vegetables and fruit were at a
critical stage, and the rains came in
the nick of time. They did untold good
everywhere, despite the damage in
some sections done by the severe
storms by which the drought was brok-
en-.
The Enquirer, in order to be able to
present to its readers the condition
and prospects of the staple crops since
the breaking of the drought, has Sc
cureN from many of its correspondents
in many of the most important crop
states the latest summaries made by
state boards as of August l or the last
week of July. On the whole these are
most encouraging.

Corn will yet make big crop, ow-
ing to the great increase of acreage
this year over 1910. Oklahoma sends
the worst report as to cUrn, and ILL
nois and Kentucky report great dam

yield.
Winter wheat was out of danger
when the drought set in and spring
wheat, which sustained considerable
damage, seems now on the way to

months ago.
Oats aad hay are very short crops in
most states.
Tobacco will be many hundreds of
millions of pounds short. Some of the
tobacco states will nave heavy yields,
but the crop will be short in the bur-
ley and dark belts and Kentucky will
harvest scarcely half a crop.
Potatoes are reported short crop in
many states, out other states, notably
Colorado, will have record yields. All
other vegetables suffered from the
drought.
Fruit growers will not harvest the
enormous crops indicated early in the
season, but will realize quite as good
returns on the whole because of the
sharp advance of prices. Apples in
most states will not be over half a
crop, the long DRY spell causing much
of the fruit to fall. The best pros
poets are reported from Michigan,
Missouri, Montana, Pennsylvania, ;.
Vermont and Wisconsin.

the unleavened bread of Biblical times
is being exhibited by James Webster,
one of Scott county's we'll known
farmers.
The loaf has been sacredly kept by
his grandmother, Mrs. Debby Eabs,
for the past twenty years. in accord
ance with promise made by her to
her daughter-in-law, Mrs. Maggie
Eabs that she would keep it during the
remainder of her life. The bread was
brought by the younger woman in a

In every town there is always
some young lady who is a favorite
with every one; Harrison lost her
most popular girl. when on last Sat
urdav. May, ~, 1911, Mr.. David
Edward Fitton was united in mar
riage to Miss Lulu Vance Garvin.
The wedding took place at the resi-
dence of Mr.. and Mrs. f. Nj. Garvin.
parents of the bride. The spacious
parlors were tastily decorated with
ferns, lilies of the valley. daisies, and
bridal ribbon. Promptly at SIX
o'clock, Rev. John Womack, pastor
of the NJ. E. Church South, with a
very impressive ceremony, SAID the
words which joined them together
for life. Mr.. Fitton came to Harri-
son about two years ago, a stranger,
and remained some time He soon
made a host of friends among our
best people, for his pleasant manner
and gentlemanly conduct would win
friends for him any where. He is to
be congratulated on winning such a
bride, for no girl has been more gen
orally loved than Lulu Garvin. She
is beautiful and accomplished is a
graduate of our High School, and
holds a teachers diploma from the
University of Ark ansas. The groom
looked handsome in the regulation
black suit, and the bride was beautl-
fully dressed in white marquisette
trimmed in baby irish, the lingerie
drop skirt was a part OF her
mothers trousseau. The bride S
mother, Mrs. Garvin looked her best
in a gray rajah silk and the grand
mother of the bride, Mrs. g. ].
Crump, was handsomely gowned in
black satin with point lace. Mrs a.
J. Vance, an aunt of the bride, wore
an elegant gown of black crepe de
chene, and Mrs Guy Trimble, anoth-
er aunt, wore a pretty empire gown
of rose and black foulard. The
brides sister, Miss. Cathleen Garvin,
wore a girlisk dress of old rose
messaline. Mrs. |. c. Garvin looked
we'll in white and Miss Cornelia
Garvin was becoming dressed in a
pretty blue net dress. The presents
were numerous and handsome, Mrs,
Crump's gift being cedar chest
like "ye olden time" well filled with
linen for the new home. Immediately
after the ceremony the guests, twenty
five in number, repaired to the
"Garvin Grove" where a delicious
lunch was served. At late hour mid
smiles and tears we said goodbye to
MIR. and Mrs. Fitton, and wished
them all happiness for their future.
They left on an early train for an
extended tour, including stops at
Denver, Salt Lake City, San Fran
cisco, Los Angeles, and the Cataline
Islands. In June they will be "at
