SILVER CREEK IS
NOTED FOR PRODUCE
Tobacco Almos tEntirely Escap-
ed Rust, Corn Flourishing
and Fruit Abundant

Tobacco in the vicinity of Silver
Creek is said to be the best in Mad
ison county, and little hurt by the
rust or blight, and producers there
are busily engaged in taking in the
the crop. The production is said to
be better than for years, and the owr-
ers, it is said, are preparing to hold
for a good price, since the quality
cannot be excelled by any product in
the state.
The corn crop in this section of the
county is also said to be out of the
ordinary, and preparations are being
made for the fattening of a great
amount of stock during the winter
and early spring. 1t is claimed that
the stock from this vicinity during
the spring will be greater than usual,
owing first to the fall grass product
which is better than for many years,
and the excellent corn crop. While
it has been the intention of many to
dispose of surplus stock early in the
season, they have held off, owing to
the abundant grass, and now they
are retarding the sale of the stock
on account of the corn prospects.
The fruit production is also said to
be exceptional. A resident of Silver
Creek who was in the city stated the
apple crop such as to appeal to the
admiration of any one. The locality
best crop for years, and there has
been a higher valuation than ever
placed on the lands. The peach crop,
which is not extensive, is reported as
having been unusually good for the
territory devoted to this fruit, and
apples and later fruits are equally as
abundant.

BIG BILL SUES PAPERS

Chicago, Sept. 20.-Two suits for
$1O,0O0,000 each were filed Saturday
by the city of Chicago on orders of
Mayor William Hale Thompson
against the Chicago Tribune and the
Chicago Daily News. The suits allege
the charges made by these papers in
the primary campaign that ended on
Wednesday have injured Chicago fl
nancially.
The charges allege false statements
to the effect that the city is bankrupt
and its credit exhausted. They de-
clare that these statements injured
bonds issued by the city, caused it
to pay higher prices for supplies and
materials and injured the morals of
the city employees.

they probably will before long. As
for the dispute between Sweden and
Finland over the Aland islands, the
former nation protests that there new

fall campaign against the Poles. The
Ukrainlans, who are operating on that
front, have recovered Kamanetz-Po-
