LIGHT RAIN HELPS
GROWING CROPS AND
PASTURES IN COUNTY
GLOVER PROMISES THE BIGGEST
YIELD KNOWN IN RECENT
YEARS.
HEAT OUTLOOK FAVORABLE
Considerable Complaint Over inabili-
ty to Get Stands OF Irish Potatoes.
Oats Generally Are Doing Very
Well.

A shower on Friday afternoon and
night proved very beneficial TO the
grasses and crops of the county. The
shower, while not sufficient to pene-
trate lands recently broken, will be
very helpful in causing corn tina: has
just been planted, to sprcut. IT was
also very helpful to the young clio
yer and to the pastures. On the
whole the crops of the county are in
good shape. 1t is common remark
among the farmers that the clover
crop this year, that is the old clover,
is the best that has been known in
years. The seasons last year we're
most conducive to good stand, and
the mild winter brought the iegume
through in fine shape. 1t is believed
that the county this year will have
the largest crop of clover hay that
has been known in long time.
The wheat crop looks fine. Pros
poets at this time have never been
better for a banner yield. Farmers
and mill men who have investigated
the condition of the wheat declare
that it is ten per cent better than
the average for the past ten years.
The plant is healthy, it is generally
good stand and is growing rapidly.
Even wheat that was sown to stalk
land, some of it as late as the first
of December, is showing up well and
indicates a good yield. Wheat lands
have washed very little during the
past winter The fore part of the
winter was mild and the plant took
good root before the heavy 1pring
rains came.
Oats, while injured in the foods
of March, are showing up better even
than expected Fields were badly
washed by the deluges that followed
the lowing of this crop, causing the
seed to POOL and gather, but aside
from this the crop is in fairly good
condition.
Considerable complaint is heard
over failure to get a satisfactory
stand of Irish potatoes, but where a
stand was obtained the condition OF
the crop is regarded as favorable.

MAJOR WHITE SUES
JESSE LANE RESULT
PERSONAL TROUBLE
ASKS THE COURT TO GIVE HIM
FIVE THOUSAND DAMAGES
FOR INJURIES.
PLAINTIFF ABLE TO Be UP
The State Case Has Not Been Set
Pending the Recovery of White So
He Could Attend the Trial Before
the Justice.

AS result of the trouble between
Major White and Jesse Lane on last
Saturday night, in which White sus.
tanned severe injuries about the face
and side, suit was Friday institut-
ed in the circuit court oy Mr.. White
through his attorney Thomas B. For
gey asking damages in the sum of
$1,000.
The declaration was not filed with
the warrant, which was issued by
Circuit Clerk Hays, but the warrant
sets out personal injuries as the
basis of the suit. The alteration
took place near the corner of Eighth
and Garden streets, when the parties
met there and Whites nose was brok-
en- and his face bruised considerably,
and he has been confined to his home
since.
A criminal warrant was issued
against Mr. Lane citing him to trial
at 9 o'clock Monday morning but was
postponed indefinitely on account of
the inability of Mr.. White to be pres
emit. It is not known when this trial
will come up for hearing.

Nine Sets of Improvements

In this years report it can only be
stated that the interest continues. Little
that was gained last year has been lost
and additions have been made thereto
At the present moment there are nine
full sets of improvements under construc-
ton.
Edward Hatchet, ull-blood, began
farming last season. 1t was his first ef-
fort. At the beginning of the season he
was 500 in debt. At the close he had a
fairly complete set of farming imple-
ments, a wagon, top buggy. harness, etc,
was free from debt. had hay and corn
sufficient to last through the winter and
to put In the crop this spring. This year
he has moved to his own allotment and
is farming on a larger SCALE
ALEX Hittle, full-blood who began
farming in 1909 and who farmed about
80 acres in 1911, owns 200 acres of land
several miles from the eight that he
farms. The lease expires upon this 300
acre tract last March and he desired to
enew it.
"The tract was appraised by this office
at S2.75 an acre. and when the lessee Of
fered SO an acre Hittle was urged by
the superintendent to complete the lease.
He speaks little English, but through
the Interpreter he addressed the super
intendent practically as follows:>
:" A few years ago If you had advised
would have done so. I have been farm
ing for myself for a few years and
have learned the value of this land, be-

raised his offer to "a an acre and the

Saving His Hat

From the Philadelphia Public Ledger
A certain literary man, possessor of the
learned degree Of doctor, used to take
his midday luncheon at a we'll known
West End cafe in London. One wet day
the place was less fully attended thar
usual and the miserable state of the
weather induced most of the visitors tc
seek their various employments as soon
as possible. While proceeding to follow
their example. the doctor was atonished
to find, in place of his shabby and wealth
er-beaten head covering a stylish tall hat
shining with sparkling brilliancy.
He could only attribute this quasi ma gil
cal change to the delicate attention ot
some friend, and FASTENED to display the
acquisition. with no little pride, to his
family The next day young man ac
costed him at the cafe and politely re-
marked.
Doctor. allow me to claim my hat ant
to apologize for the apparent mistake
The fact was, however, | had no umbrel

pins discovery in Illinois. but the first
records of production from the Viz
ginia mines were for the year 1872.
when. according to one authority, $1,000
tons were mined. Ohio probably ranks
second in priority of production as coal
was discovered there i'm 1855, but the
records of production date back only TO
1898 The mining of anthracite in
Pennsylvania began about 1890, and 1t
is said that in 1907 80 tons We're
shipped to Columbia. Pa. Reports OF
the anthracite coal trade are usually
begun with the year 1920, when 800
long tons were shipped to Philadelphia
from the Lehigh region. Prior to this.
however in 1914, shipment of % tons
was made from Carbondale, also 10
Philadelphia and the production is con-
sidered to have begun in that year. 1t is
probable that the actual production prior
