A. Whatever you do, take no stock
in misleading statements put out by
manufacturers of alleged specific
cures. Radium, whether in the form
of pads, liquids or other forms, is no
recognized treatment for tuberculosis,
pneumonia, or other respiratory dis
eases. Be sure to consult a qualified

tainly foolish to take any stock in the
claims made by manufacturers of

1t is possible that your persistent

or to some local throat trouble, such
as an elongated uvula or a chronic
laryngitis. The only safe plan to
pursue is to have a doctor diagnose
your condition.

Pleasant weather of the summer
resort variety prevailed over Kansas
this week and no temperatures as
high as 100 degrees We're reported.
Fine rains fell in scattered localities,
mostly in the eastern third or the
southwestern counties, but the state
as a whole is getting quite dry, with
damaging drouth in many south
central counties.
Corn is still in good condition, in
some places rated as excellent, except
the south-central portion and especial
ly strip extending from Graden City
and Liberal eastward to Wichita and
Salina, where it is generally suffering
severely from the effects of dry
weather. The center of the dry Sec
ton seems to be in Reno county,
where corn is reported as almost a
total failure.
ears, except some of the more south
ern counties, where it has passed that
stage, and the extreme northwest por-
ton, where it is just coming into it.
Except in the limited areas that
received rains this week, threshing
progressed without hindrance from
weather conditions and is now we'll
advanced. Fall blowing is also MAX
ing good progress but the ground is
becoming hard and dry over most of
the southeastern and south-central
parts of the state
Grain sorghums are making a good

parts and have not been affected by
dry weather as much as corn has.
Pastures and alfalfa would be bene-
fitted by rain in all sections, tho pas
lures are generally fair to good except
in the places where lack of moisture
is most pronounced.
