H. B. Hummel brought few ears
of corn to town yesterday from his
farm twelve miles west of the city
which are very good samples. The
ears were picked at random and are
probably a good average of the field
in which they were growing. Mr..
Hummel had anticipated that the
drouth would materially affect the
crop but an examination of these
ears shows that his fears were
groundless. 1t will probably yield
from sixty to sixty-five bushels to
the acre and that is good enough
for the most promising season. The
corn is we'll matured and practical

his disciples to go board the boat and row
across the lake to Capernaum. Then he sent away
the great crowd of people who were still eager
that he should be their king. When they were all
gone and he was left alone he went up into the
