The Wheat Crop.

The Wheat Crop.
Farmers are beginning to threSh their
wheat and if is coming 10 market slowly.
Not much has been received in Shep-
herdstown, but S. ]. Hodges has taken
in several carloads at his Kearneysville
elevator. The price is SO cents bushel
today. The frost the past spring affected
the crop considerably, and the yield in
this section will be less than usual-the
average will be from I6 TO IS Bushels per
acre. A. S. Dandridge's crop, threShed
few days ago, yielded q bushels per
acre. The Charles Town Advocate says
: that the crop on J. Shirley Smiths farm,
tenanted by Richard Manuel, was .
bushels and 3pecks an acre. The wheat,
as rule, is OF very good quality, accord
ing to the reports of the dealers here.
The weather has been very favorable
this week for hauling in and threshing.

Berkeley County Waking Up.

The Berkeley county road-makers an
nounce that about the first OF August
work will be commenced on the macad-
amizing of the road from Martinsburg to
the Jefferson county line. This is an i'm
provement that has long been needed.
The necessary stone has been piled along
the roadway for a couple Of years, but
somehow not a perch has been crushed
and put on the road. We hope that our
neighbors may soon make a good pike
to connect with Jefferson countY's ex-
cellent highway.

necessary to send to the asylum for the
insane Our former fellow townSman,
Charles Yontz. For the past year MIR.
Youtz has been living with his relatives
in Roanoke, Va. For some time past his

placed in the asylum at Marion, Va, and
he is to be taken to that institution today.

Rridoe Bond Issue Defeated.


The proposition TO issue $4,000 in
bonds to erect a bridge over the Shen-
andoah river at Bloomery was defeated
at the election in Charles Town last
Thursday, the vote being 336 in favor OF
the bond issue and 539 against it IN total
of S75 votes. Only about two-thirdS OF
the voters took the trouble 10 cast their
ballots. At only one precinct was there
a majority in favor OF the bridge-thiS
was at Mechanicstown, the voting-place
OF those who live on the east side OF the
river. Here the vote was 81 in favor OF
the bonds and 20 againStit. Shenandoah
Junction gave the project black eye
casting 146 votes against the bonds and
only 2 for them. All four Of the Charles
Town precincts were decisive in MAORI
ties against the issue. Atthe courthouse
there were 81 for the bonds and III
against; Citizens engine-house, As for
bonds, So against them; Getzendanner
building, Al for and 50 against them;
Browns store, 81 in favor of bonds and
lis in opposition. Under the law, which
requires a two-thirds majority to issue
bonds, 525 would have to have been castin
favor of the propoSition-it got but $50.

Noise.

Noise was not invented by the Amer
can people, but they have done more
to develop 1t than any one else. IL
Fou doubt this go to a dinner party
given by an American society woman.
The manufacture of noise In most
countries Is produced by natural
causes. In America Ii is the work of
specialists There are more people
making a living out of noise In this
tountry than anywhere else on earth
tcientists are constantly trying to in
rent new noises. We depend rs much
lpon new, fresh noises as we do upon
new novels, new plays and new adul-
serati1ns. Noise consists of vibrations,
arranged In the noisest way. 4 loud
noise is not to be despised. but the
test OF all noises is the one that is diff
ferent from any other we have ever
heard. Huge factories are devoted to
the production of noise. II is canned.
metalized and strung on wires. Moth
ing succeeds like noise. When we
reach the millennium we shall live on
nolseless noise. Hasten the dayi-Life.
