July.

July was originally the fifth month of the Roman year. In the Alban cal endar it had complement of 36 days. which was reduced to 31 and then to 30. and 1t stood thus for many centu- ries.
 At length Julius Caesar restored it to 31. He felt personal interest fn July, as it was his natal month. After the death of this great law-giver and reformer Marc Antony changed the name from Quintilis to July, in honor of Caesars family name, in order to note that as the sun was most potent at this time so was Caesar the most powerful pOtentate who had ever lived. Our Saxon ancestors called July Hey Monath' because they usually moved their hay at that period of the year. Chicago Journal.

HEAVY CROPS IN
 WESTERN STATES

From Chicago, through Illinois, Iowa and Missouri, on to the Gulf of Mexico, and to the Pacific Ocean in all the states traversed by the Santa Fe Railway-the crop yields this year have been heavy. If there is a shortage of farm stuff, certain ly it cannot be charged to the South west. The season throughout has been ideal. In some spots there has been a little too much moisture, in others, not quite enough, and in still others, a bit of frost at the wrong time; but taking the growing period as a whole, history does not show a better one.
 Kansas jumped from 1OO,O00,OOO bushels of wheat in May to 15O,O00,- 900 bushels at harvest time, and as the threshers proceed with thelr work. the predictions continue to have an upward tendency. It vii be the sec ond largest wheat crop on record tn the state. Corn, a particularly good crop this year, will run close to 165,- OOO,OOO bushels. Alfalfa, the grain sorghums, rye, oats, potatoes, sugar beets, vegetables and broom corn have gone far beyond the estimates made by the experts.
 Oklahoma, which raises nearly everything that Kansas raises, and in addition, cotton, has had wonderful year. The state board of Agricul- ture expects that the final returns will show it to be the best in volume of production and also in value.
 The Arkansas Valley of Colorado will count 1920 as it's best year. Ev- erything has done well. Yields of al falfa, wheat, cantaloupes, water melons, sugar beets vegetables and fruit are equal to or ahead of those of any previous season
 Texas, which last year raised over a million dollars worth of farm stuff, will do as well this year; probably better. Corn, wheat, rice, oats, pea nuts, broomcorn, potatoes, fruit and vegetables came to harvest in prime condition, and cotton, which was hurt in the spring by dry spell, recov- cred under more favorable weather conditions, and the yield will exceed the estimates by big margin.
 Reports from the Rio Grande, Me .silla Rincon. Gila. Estancia, PortaleS and Pecos Valleys of New Mexico, as we'll as from the so-called dry farm sections, indicate good yields Of grains, feed crops, vegetables and fruits. A famous crop in New Mex ico is the bean. This year the acre age and the yield surpass those of any former year.
 Arizona will write new records this year. The big success with cotton in the Salt River Valley, but every thing else under the Roosevelt dain has turned out satisfactorily -alfal- ia, exceptionally well. Good crops have been grown in the Parker and Prescott districts, and along the Santa Fe's main line in the north part oi the state. There is a big potato yield in Coconino County.
 The yield of fruit and farm pro. ducts in California has been one of the heaviest that has ever been har- vested. There has been no trouble ln dispsing of all of the products at good prices.
 The number of inquiries about az ricultural opportunities in the South west is the largest in ten years, in dicating a big increase in population in 1921.

Black Hole of Calcutta.

This name was given to an apart. ment in Calcutta in which a party of English were confined on the night of June 20, 1756. The garrison of the fort connected with the English fac tory at Calcutta was captured by the Nawab Siraj-udDaulu, who caused all the prisoners taken to be confined in a room IS by 14 feet 10 inches. This cell had only two windows, obstruct- ed by veranda. Of the 150 people who spent the night in horror of thirst, heat and agony from pressure, only 23 survived the experience.
