he Disaster d Corn.

Tie extent Of the ravages done
by the drouth Of this year can be-
gauged by the governments re-
port on the condition Of corn.
The average in Kansas this
year is 10 per cent Of the perfect
crop. More damage was done to
corn throughout the State Of Kan
sas than was ever done by the boil
weevil in the most accursed dis
trict.
The people of Mississippi, Ark
ansas and West Tennessee should
rejoice in view Of the failure of
the corn crop in the West, that
they have grown mere than the
usual amount in this territory.
Corn next year will be worth
around 81 a bushel delivered in
Memphis, which means Sl.2j .
bushel when 1t gets to the mouth
of tho mule on the farm.

farmer or planter who has corn

Printed the Whole Truth, How i
Sounded.

Persons who some times criti-
else the newspapers because they
frequently,in consideration or the
feelings OF relatives and friends,
fail 10 print the exact truth about
persons, especially in obituaries.
will be interested to know Just
how a perfectly fruited obituary
sounds, when it is committed 10
cold type. An editor up in Illi-
nois had been the victim OF this
sort OF criticism repeatedly and
he finally told his critics that the
very next prominent man who
died in the community would be
given an obituary notice exactly
fitting his personal character.
without the usual charitable gloss
ing over of ugly facts in his ca
reer. It happened that one Of the
critics was fated to be the suojec.
OF this truthful obituary, and, al
though he was q leading citizen,
his death notice appeared as
promised.

years ! was great sufferer from
bronchitis. Last July had an attack
which Vas more severe than any. and
my friends thought could not recover
from 1t. Then l was advised by my
druggist to try Vinol, which l did,
with wonderful results. My cough
has left me; have gained in weight
and appetite, and l am as strong as
ever l was. | advise all who have
bronchitis, chronic coughs, or who are
run down to try Vinol."
1t is the combined action Of the
medicinal curative elements of the
Gods liver. without the greasy oil,
aided by the blood-making and
strength-creating properties of tonic
