CORN IS ROASTED IN
THE STALKS IN KANSAS

THE corn crop back in Nebraska,
western Iowa and northern Kansas
is simply burning up" says c. R.
Hicke, who returned from a two
week trip to Salt Lake, Denver
and Chicago. The heat back there
has been something fierce and there
hasn't been a rain for four or five
weeks. The last government re-
port stated that that section would
yield a crop about 70 per cent full
but since then thousands Of acres
have gone to ruin, and it is positive
that the next report will put the
estimate much lower. Back in Lin
coin, Neb., Secretary Bryan's home
town, and in other places in that
vicinity l noticed that large we'll
kept lawns were absolutely yellow;
simply burned up, '-Nampa Lead

SOME CHEAP PEOPLE
by Collecting Money Never Paid at
Gates Crowd Puts Pioneer Day
Committee In the Hole
at Blackfoot.

The Pioneer Day committee in
charge of the celebration that was
10 have taken place in Blackfoot
on July "a, finds itself in a very
peculiar position In the matter Of
finances, all on account Of the rain
that came on that day, says the
Courier. During the early morn
ing hours a good many admission
tickets ere sold and finally when
rain put a stop to the program Of
the day all purchasers of tickets
were told they might get their
money back at the box office, and
there was a rush for the gates. At
ter all accounts had been balanced
It was discovered that the amount
OF money given back at the gates
to people passing out of the fair
grornds was about 500 in excess Of
the sum taken in on the sale Of
tickets. The only possible explana-
ton of this curious state Of affairs
is offered by one Of the members of
the committee who charge that a
good many Of the people who
passed out Of the gate and received
money at the box office had come
Into the grounds in some other way
without paying an admission fee.
Under the circumstances the fair
ground association has offered to
let the Pioneer Day committee have
the use Of the grounds on some
other day between now and Labor
Day when they will be permitted
to carry out the program arranged
for July "a.
