GOOD PROSPECT
FOR PEACH CROP
Fruit Infected Less Than in
Several Years.

Most of the peach trees in johnson,
Morgan and Brown counties are heavily
loaded and prospects are unusually good
for an abundant yield, according to
Frank N Wallace, entomologist for the
state conservation department, who Is
hack from trip into the three counties.
The fruit is cleaner and appears less
affected by insect pests this year than
n a number of years Mr.. Wallae says.
So far. very little brown rot has
shown up and little of the fruit is
scared.
He found prospects for an apple crop
only fair, and in even the best cared for
. orchards there has been considerable
apple scab.
Blotch will soon be coming on, and
Il is impossible at this time to deter
mine the extent Of loss it will occasion.
Peach trees in this locality were
hard hit by the. severe cold and freeze
in the winter of 1918, Mr.. wallace says.
In many instances he found the an
nuaI wood growth of 1917 was killed
and such now appears as diseased ring
which lis decaying.
This greatly weakens the branches ana
renders them incapable of supporting
the extremely heavy weight attendant
TO a bumper fruit crop.
Farmers in Brown and Morgan coun-
ties who find that thrashing outfit
can not reach their wheat fields as soon
az anticipated have needed a recent
warning Of tho state department TO
stack their. wheat to prevent loss from
rains, and Mr.. Wallace says that on
many farms wheat is stacked awaiting
the visit of thrashers.
Some remarkable yields are reported,
and in johnson county several stands
thrashed forty to forty-twO bushels TO
the acre.

PUsS IN BOOTS JR.
BY DAVID CORY.

"Heigh-ho, how for another adven-
turei" said little Puss Junior as he
walked merrily along the Kings High
way. For there are beautiful roads in
Mother Goose Land, let me tell you,
and happy little people all about
And just then, all of a sudden, the
Jolly Miller from the River Dee,~ who
looked upon his pillow and saw a great
big flea, came along, and when he saw
Puss Junior, he said:
"Ha. ha!' little friend! Do we meet
again ?"
And then he took Puss by the arm
and together they went down the road
until they came to a stile where the
Maiden All Forlorn in days gone by used
to stand and cry. But nowadays she

be, and the reason was because the

they lived in a pretty house on the hill
nearby. And when she saw Puss and
the Jolly Miller, she laughed out loud
and said:
"Puss In Boots Junior! I'm so glad
to see you" and do you know she
picked him up and kissed him, although
at one time she had cried when the
Man-all-tatered- and torn mad kissed
her, but that. Of course, was before he
had shaved and made lot OF money.
And after that Puss went upon his
way, and after a while he came to 4
thick forest SO he left the highway
and trudged along a little path which
wound in and cut among the trees, aud
by and by he grew so tired that he
sat down to rest on an old stump.
And while he sat there, wondering
where next to go. his sword hit the old
stump, and to his surprise little door
flew open, and ttere, right in plain
sight, was q little blue egg.
And when Puss picked It up 1t also
opened, and there lay inside a bright
golden key.

FRANKLIN HAS
BUMPER YIELD
Wheat VIII Average Twenty
Five Bushels an Acre.

FRANKLIN, Ind, July 5o-Reports Of
wheat yields in johnson and adjoining
counties indicate that the local farmers
have the best wheat crops of any county
in the state. while the acreage In this
county is not as large as usual.
Some of the yields that have been re-
ported are running as high as forty
bushels to the acre. while thirty -bushel
yield is not uncommon.
1t is thought the average yield for
johnson county Will be near twenty -nve
bushels per acre, and the grain Is testing
high, with the major portion reaching
sixty pounds.
The chief difficulty here is the car sit
uation, as the allotment of cars is not
sufficient
Elevators at the north plant OF the
Farmers Elevator Company here and at
Bargersville and Trafalgar are filed and
can not accept more wheat until addi-
tional cars arrive.

GENEVA, June 1O-"If the English
and German speaking women want to
run the International Alliance we will
get out and form one Of our own, was
the attitude of the Latin nations for
several hours in the suffrage conven-
ton. The delegations from France,
Italy, Spain and South and Central
America called a meeting to discuss
the subject while sectional conferences
were going on Tuesday
Peevishness began at the big public
meeting for women members of Parlia-
ment when it seemed as if everything
was British or German with the little
Scandinavian countries thrown in.
None from the Latin countries spoke
except Justin Godart, the official dele
gate of France. But as the women of
the other nations say, How could we
help it since none of the Latin coun-
tries have woman suffrage %
The French also have been peeved be-
cause SO much English is spoken at the
meetings. German, scandinavian and
Eastern women are familiar with Eng
ish, while the French speak only their
own language for the most part. Trans

pleasantly.
However, a difference in the point
of view came again yesterday in long
discussions of the future aims Of the

Of India, which is strongly represented

The affair inaugurated a new era in
Court fashions, gowns of satins and

narrow skirts and snakelike trains, re-
placing the more elaborate long-trained
and befeathered costumes Of previous
years. The innovation was decreed by
Queen Mary in the interest of economy,
but no marked curtailment of the ira
ditional splendors of the toilets was
noted, and there was quite a general
substitution Of diamonds and jewels
for feather headdresses and other ac-
customed adornments.
The American Ambassador, John W.

GENEVA, June 10.-Mrs. Carrie
Chapman Gait resigned the presidency
Of the international Woman Suffrage
Alliance at the session Of that body
held this afternoon. She delivered a
sympathetic speech, saying that
though she felt like a mother to all,
after sixteen years as president Of the
Alliance, her age and her diminished
energies compelled her to relinquish
the task, which, in her opinion, re-
CURED younger woman.
The delegates, on proposal of Brit

Cats withdrawal and begged her tc
reconsider her judgment.
Her decision, however, appears to
be final but will not be made absolute
until tomorrow.

Mrs. Daniels conveyed to the dele

What women did in war hastened
the conferring of the balAot,' declared
Mrs. Daniels. "In our country the day
of agitation for enfranchisement has
passed. The hour has come when we
must prove by deeds that we accent
our new duties with sense of our obli-
cation to measure up to our new and
high mission.
AS we go into the political trenches
let us endeavor to be as intrepid, aim
as straight and keep our nerve as
steady as our brothers in their grim
battles. AS voters We must make or
find way to carry help and comfort
to those who live in want or in peril"
Problems yet to be solved Mrs
Daniels said, included abolition Of the
double standard of the sexes, aid for
mothers, education of all children, old
age pensions and the guarantees of
sanitation and Of free hospitals.

Financial matters were then taken
