LICENSES NOT ISSUED.
Blanks Not Ready For Sanitary Con-
troll Of Eating Houses.

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines, July 10.-Licenses have
not yet gone out to owners of places
where food is prepared for human con-
sumption under the new sanitary law.
The food and dairy department has
received a great many applications for
licenses under this law as we'll as for
cold storage places. But the license
blanks were not quite ready and it
will take a few days before the ap-
plicants can get their permits. OF
course the food and dairy department
will not hold anyone at fault in not
having a license until after the IL
censes have actually been sent out.
Inspectors in the department held
a conference. one day this week and
talked over their mutual grievances and
experiences and discussed various
phases Of the enforcement Of the new
laws which came to their attention.
But that part OF the sanitary law
which requires that fruit shall be
screened and meats be covered and
dirt be tabooed is in full force.

ALBA PosToFFicE EMPLoYE IN
TROUBLE FOR OPENING
LETTERS.
ROBBERY NOT MOTIVE
FOR LAW VIOLATIONS
Overwhelming Desire to Psruss Con.
tents of Missives He Handled Leads to
Arrest Of Harry Riley, BY Federal
Authorities Arrest Surprise and
Shock to Friends,

Ottumwa, July 1o.-The overwhelm-
ing desire to see what was written in
letters that he handled as clerk in the
Abba postcffice led to the arrect Of
Harry Riley while at work, and caused
him to be brought 10 Ottumwa for
hearing. He was brought before United
States Commissioner \. w. Enoch.
waived hearing and is held under a
federal grand jury that meets in OF
tumwa Oct. 81.
From al, of the evidence ohtainable
by the postoffice authorities and from
the confession which was made by the
young man il is believed by the officers
that theft was not the motive, but that
curiosity over which he held no
control led to Riley's downfall. The
practices that caused his apprehension
have been in vogue for a period OF
some two months and a surveillance
has been kept over the young man
movements since he was first sus-
picioned.
In order to get the evidence neces-
sary TO catch Riley. the officers had
access to the rooms above the postof-
flee and two holes were cut in the floor.
The office being a second class office
there was not the means available that
are TO be found in larger offices for
the watching of suspects. BY patiently
watching thru the improvised lookouts
the postal and local authorities were
able to see the man hold out letters
that he wished to view and thus were
enabled 70 make sure of their quarry
before making an arrest.
The fact that the young man has al
ways borne good reputation and is
not known to have stolen anything
from and of the letters is In his favor.
The arrest of Harry Riley by the post
office inspector was quite shock to
his friends in Abba. He Is a young
man of 32 years, has wife and one
child and has been employed in the
postoffice at Abba since May IS, 1905.
When arrested he was taken by sur
prise and told the officers that it was
curiosity that prompted him to open
the letters, and that he had not taken
ment to the officers acknowledging his
ment to thr officers acknowledging his
guilt and is satisfied to await the ac-
ton Of grand jury when II meets dur
ing the fall terms Of United States
court in Ottumwa.

CEREAL CROPS LESS.
Government Report Shows Falling on
In Total Yield Of 1918.


In Total Yield Of 1918.
Washington, July 1O.-The govern
ment crop report for July indicates
bountiful crops of all the cereals. but
the total production this year will be
far below the grand total for last year,
when there were record yields OF near
ly all the leading grains.
Compared with other years. however.
the present crop promise Is good, and
it is possible that, with favorable con-
ditions during the remainder OF the
growing season. some Of the crops will
turn out as well as last year, If not
better
The total yield of the leading cereals
is placed at 100000 bushels, COM
pared with 1851 900 900 bushels a year
ago.
The big loss compared with a year
ago is in oats, which promise yield of
1881 900 ,O0o bushels. against 1,41s,000-
600 bushels a year ago. Corn is short
1 81, 000. 900 bushels and the total wheat
crop is 29,000,0O0 bushels less than last
year. Barley is 59,Oo0,000 bushels less
than a year ago at 165, 100000 bushels.
Spring wheat promises to yield 112.-
100000 bushels less than year ago,
with an indicated crop of 21S,000.00
bushels. Winter wheat will be $1,000
600 bushels heavier at 4S2,000,000 BUSH
els. the total wheat crop being 701,O00.-
900 bushels, compared with 100000
900 bushels as finally estimated in 1912.
The first report on corn for the sea-
son shows a high condition. $50, but
the acreage is smaller than last year at
LOG, 1854. 900 acres.
Last year the corn acreage was 10S,-
10000 acres and the condition July l
was SIS The crop promise on that
date was for no larger crop than at
present, altho the final estimate Of the
crop was 3,125,000,oOo bushels. while
the report issued yesterday suggests
a harvest of 2,97l. 900 bushels. or
$4,000. 900 bushels less than in 1912.
In the big surplus corn states OF the
middle west the outlook is for yield
OF 1.71s,000,ooo bushels This COM
pares with ,7e3,0O0,00O bushels a year
ago. but is nearly 300.000,000 bushels
more than was raised in 1911.
Moreover, as the par yield is ad-
vanced as the season progresses. If the
present condition is maintained until
harvest the crop this year will exceed
the record yield of 1912.
With but few exceptions the corn
crop is uniformly excellent and farther
along than usual at this time Of the
year.
Illinois and Iowa both have a prom

ing the closest race ever known be-
tween the two states to head the list
Of corn producers. Each has a high
promise and conditions have been ia
vorable.
Nebraska Is next on the list with the
finest crop 1t ever has had, indicating
a yield of 270,o00. 900 bushels. Missouri
will raise nearly as much as last year
with 1000, 900 bushels.
