"HE attitude of the newspaper read
1 er toward the war correspondent
l. who tries to supply him with war
news is puzzling.
One might be pardoned for suggesting
that their interests are the same. If the
correspondent is successful, the better
service he renders the reader. The mocc
he is permitted to see at the front, the
more news he is allowed to cable home,
he better satisfied should be the man
who follows the war through the extras "
But what happens is the reverse OF
that Never is the constant reader" so
delighted as when the war correspond
snt gets the worst of it. 1t is the one
sure laugh The longer he is kept at the
base. the more he is bottled up, "deleted,' -
censored and made prisoner, the greater
is the delight of the man at home. He
thinks the Joke is on the war correspond
ent. think it is on the constant
reader" If, at breakfast, the correspond
snt fails TO supply the morning paper
with news. the reader shrieks his scorn
and claims the Joke is on the news gath
erer. But if the milkman fails to leave
the milk. and the baker the rolls, is the
Joke on the milkman and the baker or is
it on the constant reader? Which goes
hungry?
New-York tribune., 1914-11-22
WHICH PROVES THAT CONSTANT
READER" IS QUITE HUMAN

READER" IS QUITE HUMAN.
The explanation of the attitude Of the
constant reader" to the reporters seems
70 be that he regards the correspondent
as prying busybody, as a sort Of spy,
and when ne is s1ubbed and suppressed
he feels he is properly punished. Per
haps the reader also resents the fact that
while the correspondent goes abroad, ne
stops at home and receives the news at
second hand. Possibly he envies the man
who has a front seat and who tells him
about it. And if you envy a man, when
that man comes to grief it is only human
nature to laugh.
You have seen unhappy small boys out
side baseball park, and one happy boy
inside on the highest seat of the grand
stand, who calls down 70 them why the
people are yelling and who has struck
out Do the boys on the ground love the
boy in the grandstand and are the
grateful to him? Not so you would
notice it.
Does the fact that they do not love
hin and are not grateful to him for tell
ing them the news distress the boy in the
gandstand? Not so you would notice it.
For no matter how closely he is bottled
up, how strictly censored, "deleted,' ar
rested, searched and prosecuted, as be
tween the man at home and the cores
pondent the correspondent will always
be the more fortunate. He is watching
the march Of great events, he is studying
history in the making, and all he sees is
Of interest Were it not Of interest he
would not have been sent TO report 1t.
he watches men acting under the stress
Of all the great emotions. He sees them
inspired by noble courage, pity, the spirit
Of self-sacrihce Of loyalty and pride of
race and country.

CROP REPORT
As OF June Isl 1914

The month of May was an un-
usually dry one in Kentucky.
The crop reports coming to this
Office as Of June Let, show that
there was practically no rainfall
In Kentucky from May 9Th to
June LIST. Almost every report
speaks of the drouth, but the
damage up to June LIST has not
been serious. Since this time
copious rains have fallen In many
portions of the State. The best
rains have occured in the central
and eastern portions of the State,
and showers over limited areas
have occurred in the western Sec
tlons.
Wheat cutting has begun in the
southern portion of the State.
and the indications are that we
will have a record breaking crop
in Kentucky. Condition is Civ
en- at SO per cent at the Begin
ming of the harvest, and it is now
too late for weather conditions
to prevent the maturing of a
large yield of wheat of splendid
quality. The crop has but one
danger to run now, and that is,
an excessive rainfall while in
shock. Rye has held its own,
and the condition is given at SO
per cent. This crop is practically
made. Another crop that is
made and ready for harvest is
the Bluegrass seed crop, which
will be large and of good quality.
Condition of Bluegrass is given
at 81 per cent.
The corn acreage is given at
SO per cent. while the condition
is stated at 81 per cent. The
drouth to a certain extent has
affected both the planting of the
corn and the condition of that
planted. The damage to corn,
however, is probably not very
great, as the rains that have fall
len since the first of June will
remedy much of the trouble in
dicated by the reports. Oati,
however, with an acreage of SO
per cent, has suffered materially
in condition, the latter dropping
to IA per cent. A rain would
help the eats crop some, but this
can not possibly be heavy crop
this year.
Tobacco beds have suffered in
measure from the drouth. Lack
of moisture has prevented the
transplanting of plants at the
proper time, and there are COM
plants of the plants getting too
large for transplanting- This
damage. however, cannot be con-
sidered as very serious. Condi-
tion of Burley tobacco is given
at SO per cent, and that of dark
tobacco 81 per cent. Cut worms
are doing considerable damage to
doth corn and tobacco.
Alfalfa and orchard grass are
both given at SO PSF cent, and
have not suffered as much from
the drouth as young clover and
timothy, which show a condition
of rs per cent. Potatoes have
suffered materially, dropping to
a condition of IA per cent. Gar
den conditions are given at so
per cent. The prospects far a
large fruit crop remains good,
but the strawberry crop was cut
to about so per cent of crop as
the result Of the dry conditions
at maturity. Indications are for
a large blackberry crop. this be-
ing given at SO per cent \; grapes
at 81, apples rs, peacees "a, pears
70 and plums 78 per cent.
All live stock is in good con-
dition, comparatively speaking,
with lambs beginning to show
the effect of short pastures.
Condition. of horses is given at
05 per cent; cattle "a; hogs 81

The sixty-ninth annual report OF
the foreign mission board OF the
Southern Baptist convention con-
tains some interesting statement. 1t
says:
"Our missionaries report a year OF
gratifying success. The report
shows $50 churches, 5,262 baptism,
$50 native workers, e,876 students In
our schools, including 420 In our
theological seminsries and training
schools. In nearly all of our fields
our schools have been filled 70 ever
flowing. The number OF baptism 10
the largest ever reported in one year.
In nearly all che fields there has
been an advance 10 the number OF
converts baptized. This is true even
in Mexico amidst the terrors OF war.
The largest numbor OF baptisms re-
ported by any one mission Is that
OF 1881 bsptisms in North China
missions. Many OF the greatest
fruits Of mission work cannot be ex-
pressed in figures.
The receipts of the board for the
current support of the work amount
TO $685., 1887. This sum falls far
short of the apportionment OF $685.
900 fixed by the last convention,
and leaves a debt OF $4,000 on the
work. 1t is gratifying to note, how
ever, that most Of the states made
an encouraging advance over the
contributions Of last year. There
was no serious falling of In receipts
except In two states. Financial
distress, due TO crop conditions IN
Mississippi and the drought In
Texas, with the disastrous floods
during the closing days, caused
heavy losses In those states. In
spite OF this fact, there Is an ad-
vance Of $4,000, over the receipts Of
last year. Only q few times 10 the
history Of the work has 30 great an
advance been made In one year."
