full normal soft winter wheat harvest.
Sporadic reports OF damage Of the
hard winter wheat states have, Of
course, added to the speculative exs
element, but the developments to date
do not suggest more than the usual
amount Of winter killing. The spring
season Is backward which can account
for the unfavorabIe appearance Of the
fields, but it is now easy to arouse APP
prehension and the course of the a
ket will be quickly Influenced by the
developments in the great producing
states Of Kansas and Nebraska.
In the northwest rains have inter-
fered somewhat with the completion Of
seeding operations. In the northern
half of the spring grain belt farmers
are reported to be far behind In their
work, but there remains ample time
for the maturing of the crops. While
the information covering the ares sown
to wheat is too insufficient TO say what
the acreage will be for 1912, there is a
general belief that northwestern farm
ers will go more extensively into the
coarse grains at the expense Of the
wheat production.

ORIGINAL IDEA.

Down in Georgia, where the farm
ing is done principally by a nan Gull
tivating the crops with a one-mule
power, a legislative candidate has sug-
gested to his opponent that they trav-
ell in pairs. When they strike a farm
err in the field one shall take the mule
and proceed with the cultivation Of the
crop while the other presents his side
to the farmer. After the talker is
through-he will take a turn at the
pillow and give his opponent an oppor-
tunity. That seems fair.

Charlson Journal: Aside from the

really nothing Objectionable about the

The list thus made becomes a poll list
at the primary elections following and
will make it impossible for a man who
has declared himself as belonging to
one political party to take part in the
primary of another party. That is
perfectly fair. If he is dissatisfied
with the nominees of his own party, he
can vote for the candidates of any

Fined For Bringing In Booze.

That voting saloons into our neigh
boring towns works almost as much of
a hardship on Lancaster as it does in
the town getting the saloons is a fact
that has been quickly demonstrated.
Since saloons were opened in Nicholas
vile there has been considerable travel
to and from that place, and Chief Her
ron suspecting that something was
wrong began watching, and did he have
long to wait, one night last week he
caught Taylor Simpson, alias "Snip"
with something over gallon of booze
and promptly arrested him. Simpson
was taken before Judge Hafris Gil
Thursday morning on a warrant charg-
ing him with bringing in whisky for
hire, and was fined $50. and costs.
The city authorities are fully determin-
ed to take this matter in hand early in
the action, and to catch every person
they possibly can who is violating the
law as regards bringing liquor into
town and administer such fines as is
hoped will break up the practice.
