ON HONEYMOON WITHOUT
BRIDEGROOM.

A honeymoon trip without the
company of her husband was the
rather unusual experience of Mrs.
Horace l.. Keeler, young bride who
arrived Friday from Honolulu on the
Sierra.
But a few minutes before the
steamer cleared from the island port
last Saturday the marriage took
place and then with a quick parting
kiss the bride stepped aboard of the
steamer while her husband stood on
the dock and waived adieu.
The husband expects to arrive on
the next steamer and will join his
bride. Prior to her marriage Mrs.
Keeler was Miss Louise Whipple and
was employed as a trained nurse in
Honolulu. She first met her hus-
band when called upon to nurse him
through an attack OF appendicitis,
and 1t was not until Miss Whipple
said that she was going away that

 ashlngton.-Ney before have the great cereal crops of the United States been so bountiful as those Of this year. Records of production for almost every cereal have been sur pa.sea, in some instances by millions of bushels.
 The October crop report of the De. partment of Agriculture just issued, shows spring wheat, oats, barley, rye, and hay all have exceeded the best record productions, while the crops of corn and potatoes, from present n- dications, also will be the greatest ever harvested
 Speaking of the great showing made by the country's farmers, James Wil. son, secretary of agriculture, said:
 The crops are the heaviest on rec ord. The season has been favorable, but some credit is due to the wide efforts made in late years by the fed eral goYernHen and the states to help the farmers throughout the country to get better returns from the average acre.
 Twenty-eight million pieces of lit erature have been sent out by the de- paftment, in addition to the advices from the state stations along these lines. So the farmers have been help ed fn producing their record breaking crops"
 The features of the report are the spring wheat More than three billion bushels of corn, almost a billion and a half bushels Of oats and 330.000 .000 bushels of spring wheat have been grown. The states in the Northwest are harvesting the greatest crops ever grown there.
 h North Dakota, l4G,592, ,oo0 bushels of spring wheat. the greatest spring wheat harvest ever grown by any state, was produced The yield per acre there was increased from eight bushels last year to IS bushels this year.
 Iowa, with 219,7S0000 bushels Hi nois, with 1S2,726000 bushels. Mime. sota, with 122, ,f3S,000 bushels were the principal oat producers In each of these states the yield per acre this year was almost double last years yield
 1t looks as if we won't have to i'm. port any potatoes this year, said Secretary Wilson in commenting on i the record potato crop. Indications are that the farmers will have l08,- o00.o00 bushels more potatoes this year than last, when, by reason of the short crop, large quantities 7ere im- ported from Europe.
