UP FARM WORK, IS
G. BRYANI'S REPORT

The weekly report Of George C. Bry.
ant. field agent for the cooperative
crop reporting service for Indiana
says that farm work in Indiana pro
ceeded only fairly we'll during the
last week, owing to the fact that
heavy rains fell in some localities
Many women are seen in the fields
and Sunday work is common because
OF the lateness of the season and the
scarcity of labor. The report says:
Corn is about IS per cent planted
some ground in bottoms is yet to be
plowed. Stand is rather uneven. but
seed generally was excellent and the
plants are of good color and vigorous
'HesSian fly in winter wheat is
causing the straw to fall since it has
headed out. In some counties this is
very serious. Joint worm is also at
work. The general appearance of the
crop, however, is better than a week
ago.
Spring Wheat Looks Fair.
Spring wheat is only looking fairly
we'll. Much Of it was planted very
late.
Oats are in fairly good condition
The plants have good color and seem
vigorous, but in some fields the stand
is rather poor.
Rye cutting will start in about ten
days in the southern part of the state
Outlook is good
Hardly enough potatoes have been
planted to report on, although there is
still plenty of time.
Glover is headed out in all parts of
the state, and with favorable weather
cutting will start next week. Army
worms are doing some damage to
timothy in some OF the southern coun-
ties.

ADVERTISING COST
REDUCER, JOHNSON
Tells CONVENTION
(By Associated Press)

INDIANAPOLIS, June 7-Advertis-
ing reduces the cost to the consumer
instead of adding an additional tax to
the article, in the opinion of speakeT 8
at today's general session of the 18th
annual convention of the Associated
Advertising clubs of the world, which
opened here yesterday.
1t was also pointed out that adver-
Using lifts the market standard and
is an essential factor in successful dis
tribution of goods.
Reuben H. Donnelley of Chicago
president of the organization, presid-
ed, and named a number of convention
committees. One of the most impor-
tant of these was the committee on
resolutions, of which George B. Sharpe
of Cleveland, will be chairman.
1T is entirely wrong to look upon
the expense of advertising as one of
the costs which add to the price," de-
clared Joseph French Johnson, dean
Of the New York University School
of Commerce.
Without advertising large scale pro-
duction is absolutely impossible and
large scale production is the sine qua
non of low prices. Furthermore. ad-
vertising sees to it that people shall
vertising puts no royal crown on the
head of a humbug."
L. D. H. Weld, manager of the com
mercial research department of Swift
& Co, Chicago. stressed the import
ance of thorough analysis of product
and market in planning sales and ad
vertising campaigns.
There are still too many people
who believe that advertising is more
or less an expensive luxury, and that
it is an expense that consumers must
pay for if they buy advertised goods,
Mr.. Weld said. advertising not only
reduces selling costs by producing a
greater demand for the same expen-
diture, but it also reduces manufacture
ing expenses by making possible large
scale production, by bringing about
Standardization of commodities and
by transforming seasonal demands in
to continuous and all-year demands.

He ate the evidence, but accom-

Tonopah Times. 1t all happened last
Tuesday afternoon after the trial of
Homer Humphrey, a well-known
character, who was arrested for hav-
ing dope on his person. The case
was entirely disposed of and the COM
mitment papers were being made out
by Justice Harry r. Grier. The evil
dence in the form of a tin of cocaine
and morphine was lying on the judges
desk. His honor was compelled to
turn his back for a moment, and dur
ing the interval Humphrey deftly
stole over the desk, picked up the
tin can and swallowed the entire on
tents.
Justice Grier became quite excited,
thinking the prisoner "a attempting
suicide, having taken such a great
quantity. but the prisoner only
smiled. Reports from the county Jail
later were that Humphrey was sleep

Mountain.
The defendants, Joseph Ralph ct al,
of Salt Lake City, who are under a
bond of $4,000 imposed by the
courts, are still in possession of the
mine. and Thatcher, in an interview,
told the Reno Journal that he will not
go on the property with his surveyors
until the mandate of the supreme
court comes down.
There are a number of unique cir
cumstances connected with this mine,
chief of which is the proposition to
pump the great quantity of water
n eded for placer mining from a
nearby mine, as several seasons of
unusual drought has reduced natural
water supplies to an extraordinary
extent.

o 700 feet, are flooded and it is cal

1t has been said that there has been
considerable high grading done dur

on the property and that steps will
be taken to recover on this.
The property is extremely rich in
gold, as shown by the fact that for
eight days work in September, 1913,

HOMESTEADS
FINALLY DECIDED

The officers of the United States
land Office in Carson City have been
notified that 1902, 039 acres of Nevada
lands have been designated as sub
ject to entry as stock raising home
steads, says the Carson City News.
The descriptions SO designated in
clude eighty-four tracts for which
applications have already been made
by the would-be h~omesteaders.
1t is said that applications for
entry from the Carson City land Of
fee have been pending yer since
January. 1917, and that applicants
have died while waiting word of &C
ton of some kind or other by the
officials at Washington.
A great many who filed papers and
paid the required fee have grown
tired of waiting and withdrawn their
applications. At one time the Carson
Office paid out several hundred dol
lars a month in the form of refunds
to persons who came to the conclu
sion that prospects of getting stock
raising homesteads in their day and
generation were slim.
1t is claimed that the delay was
