CROPS OF MADISON

Madison county, which is one of the
most productive and prosperous coun-
ties in the State, has the greatest crop
prospect at the present time she has
witnessed in years. Wheat was good.
although the crop was not as bountiful
as it had been during bumper crop
years, and wet weather during harvest
ing and threshing greatly damaged the
grain, yet the yield was good average.
Owing 10 the drought the past spring
the hay crop was cut short, but the
quality is good and the average fair
Never in the history of the county was
there finer prospect for bumper corn
crop than at present This will more
than offset any shortage that may exist
in the hay and wheat crops. The acre
age of tobacco planted this season does
not seem TO be quite as large as former
years, and in some sections the quality
| is not the best, owing to the incesSant
rains during the month of July. But
tobacco is a peculiar product and if the
weather is favorable during the coming
! fall months, no doubt, tobacco in this
county will come up to the standard.
Vegetabl S of every variety are super
abundant and prices are reasonable. Po-
tatoes are abundant and in some sec
lions of the county farmers are feeding
them to swine The apple crop is large
and farmers are selling them on the
market for % cents bushel. There is
an abundance OF plums and other small
fruit and prices are very reasonable.
| Homegrown watermelons and canta
loupes are being offered for sale in
great quantities and Mr.. Consumer is
oeing asked stiff prices for same. The
quality and quantity are all that could
be desired, but the price is little alb
normal. but owing TO the great quantity
on the market, prices will necessarily
be lowered TO price within the reach
of each and all. From present indica-
tons there is no danger of famine in
Madison county. The prospects are
never better for good crops and cheaper
living prices among consumers. We
should all give thanks and feel bouyant
and hopeful.

ANa!ly TIE NEW DISCOVERY
Many Cures Reported Daily In
Towns Where 1t Is Known.

The wonderful cures that are being
made by this remarkable new remedy
are almost beyond belief.
A young lady from Ottumwa, Iowa,
for many years suffered from a bad case
of eczema, Her face was sight to be-
hold; all covered with red blotches, pus-
tules and pimples. So unsightly was
her appearance she gave up all social
life. Failing to find relief with doctors
and remedies, she became despondent
and discouraged. After few weeks
treatment Amolox liquid and ointment,
the scaly redness disappeared, pustules
healed and she was entirely cured. A
few months following her mother wrote
that Amolox had done wonders for her
daughter, and she was married last week
This is only one OF the many cases that
are being reported in towns where Amo-
lox has been introduced and Its merits
nave become known. Amolox Ointment

Our New Man of Business

For generations throughout the civil
lied world the farmer has been regarded
simply as farmer-nothing more.
He has been classed as farmer, rated
as farmer, and treated as farmer,
and because there are none so blind as
those who will not see.
But all of that is changed today.
The farmer has come into his own,
and stands before the world in the
twentieth century as the most solid,
substantial and reliable class of people
on the face of the globe.
He is man of business--of tremen-
dous business-the one man without
whom the. people of the world would
cease to exist
Men go out to the great cities. and
many of them rise and fall, and are
heard from no more
But the farmer moves steadily on
ward. and upward. always to better and
greater things.
He is our new man Of business-our
greatest man of business-the man up
on whom all The world depends for tbs
vital sustenance OF life.

lalf-nour than little Bobbie could
think up in day.
HE was so thoughtful" mother
whispered, speaking at last to the
strong man beside her DO you re-
member how he brought home those
mint candies because he knew l was
fond of them? And how he got up in
the middle of the night to oil his
squeaky door for fear the winds blow
ing it might keep me awake? Doesn't
it seem as though anything under all
the heavens would be easier to bear
than suspense like this?"
Bobbie, thinking only of the fact
that mother must not be allowed to
worry, looked about for aid at this mo-
ment. Mary had gone back to the
window-seat and Lionel had disap-
peared, so, as father did nothing but
stroke his wife's hand, his face drawn
and queer, Bobbie stepped bravely
into the breach.
Mother" he said shakily, you re-
member wunst l swallered a brass bell
off my reins? Well, now, mother, it's
beginning to hurt something awful
right round here"
Boobies hand roved indefinitely. IN
certainly over the region he supposed
to cover his little stomach, but his
heroic announcement did not have the
desired effect Instead of rising, hor-
ror-sticken, to save him, his mother
most Unexpectedly seized him and
gathered him up like a very tiny boy
into her lap, where he was still sitting,
disgracefully babied, when Lionel ex-
citedly burst in.
Il went over to the drug store, "
Lionel cried, with a thrill in his voice
which they all felt. 1T isn't Billy, il
isn't Billy! 1t was a man named
Smith, and he lives in St Louis, and
found out by telephoning the Tribune
And it isn't Billy, it isn't Billy! l was
afraid to telephone from here because
it might have been. / knew there
wasn't anything to worry about. Oh
mother. it isn't Billy"
Mothers are very queer things, very
queer Here was their mother, who
had been silent for thirty hours or so
just sewing on Boobies new waist al
the time they didn't know whether il
was Billy or not, and then, when they
knew it was a fellow named Smith
she just put her head down on father:
shoulder and cried pitifully. And al
father did was to pat her on the bacl
and say: There, dear, there!" while
two great tears rolled down his Owl
cheeks unheeded.
Lionel knelt beside her and put hi!
arms around her as best he could will
Bobbie in the way, and Mary croucheC
down on the other side. as near as sh'
could, her face turned away from him

Newspaper Men Hard Hit.

Newspaper men who have been fight
ing the battles of the Democratic and
Republican parties for years we're hard
hit in the recent primary election. In

who went down in defeat were: Loving

Elkton Progress, was overwhelmingly
defeated for Lieutenant-Go Col.

for Secretary of State; A. r. Dyche, who
edited the London Echo for quarter Of
century, 'also ran" in the Senatorial
race in his district. while Frank Leslie
Russell, journalist, of Richmond, had
his political ambitions shattered in the
race for Representative. But it will
take more than political bomb to put a
newspaper man out of commission.

Curiosity of Wives.

Curiosity is most destructive to hap
piness. Eve started the fashion thou
sands of years ago and Ewes daugh-
tiers have followed it ever since. 1t
is not unusual to hear of the woman
who escorts her husband home from
his office. She has perfectly insane
curiosity regarding all his actions, so
makes habit of dropping in on him
at unexpected moments. She will veri-
fly every word or excuse the poor soul
says. She will even read his CORE
spondence. This is inexcusable. Any
man would justly resent such intru-
sion. and while a wife's place is a
sacred one. an honorable mans private
affairs are just as sacred

Mother put her hand on LionePs
shoulder and patted it gently. q do

through her tears. But we must not
forget in our own great gladness that
it was somebody's boy"
Lionel sat fiat on the floor, his long
length across the rug. and gazed
straight ahead. Shorn of its fife and
drum, its trumpet and shining banner,
stripped of its might and power, its
charm and triumph and glory, he
tasted war.

Record Breaking Honey Crop
Virgil Weaver. the expert bee man,
who resides two miles north of Fal-
mouth, KY, will harvest 30, COO pounds
of honey This summer The crop is per-
haps the best in the history OF the coun-
try. This is the largest single crop of
honey ever produced in the State, and
Mr.. Weaver is very proud OF the fact
that he has broken all records in honey
production in Kentucky. The honey
season is now about over until the fall
blossoms come in on in September.
Other honey producers in Pendleton
county are quoted as saying that their
honey product this year will be in ex
cess of 10000 to -, 900 pounds EACH
Georgetown Times.
The annual output of honey in the
United States would fill thirty nine train
loads, forty cars to the train, forty tons
to the car. The honey crop yearly sent
to market is valued at twenty million
dollars. The great quantity of pollen and
nectar which the bees gather from trees
shrubs and plants are coined into hon.
ey-into money-without penny of
cost to anybody. Nature without price
supplies the materials out of which the
honey is made and the bees turn the
material into the finished product Man
supplies the bees with hives in order
| that he NAV rob them of part of their
stores. While the productivity of bees
can be helped by man. the bottom fact
remains that nature and the bees do all
the work and in one particular at least,
something can be procured for nothing
which would otherwise be lost.
