Weather and Crop Conditions

WASHINGTON. July -
weather during the week was fair
and warm and generally very faV-
orable for crop growth and tarm
work. One very heavy rain occurred
in some northern and northeastern
counties on the 18th, but elsewhere
there was no more than enough,
and in some western and southwest
ern counties a little more would be
beneficial. On some northern farms
the su~perfluous rain of carrier
weeks still shows some unfavorable
effects on corn and on the harvest
of hay and grain. But on the whole
it has been exceptionally fine grow
ing weather. Corn is in tassel in
northern regions and somewhat
more advanced to the southwark:
sweet corn is maturing in gardens
and truck farms, and is being mar
keted. Oats harvest is in prograss
and indicates a successful season.
Potatoes are mostly good; digging
is in progress; some blight and rot
are reported, but o much; the
late crop in southern counties is be-
ing cultivated; sweet potatoes have
made fine progress. Lima beans,
late tomatoes and peppers are ex-
cellent; there is very little blight on
peppers. Early tomatoes are ripen-
ing but show some scald. Meadows
and pastures are good. Some hay is
still standing; the second cutting OF
alfalfa is in progress. Cranberries
are making good growth

DON'T GET HURT" new
SLOGAN FOR CHILDREN

NEW YORK, July 27.-"Don't get
hurt!" is the slogan being used by
the Safety Institute of America in
an an~ti-accident campaign under
way throughout the United States.
Children are the chief victims of

~lessness," says Laurence Vail Cole
man, director OF the institute, And
it is through the children, by con-
tinuous educational campaigns in
the schools, that we hope to cut
down the national bill paid each
year for carelessness."
Ebert H.. Gary, chairman of the
vice president of the institute and a
prime mover in industrial safety, will
head the committee that will put on
a "No-Accident Week" in New York
next fall.
Similar campaigns already have
been held in other cities notably
Baltimore and Boston, and an effort
will be made to hold m in every
important city in the nation.
Forty per cent of all deaths in
automobile accidents are children
says Director Coleman while deaths
in industry have decreased rs per
cent since 1906, automobile deaths
increased more than 5000 per cent.
Children victims in New Tor
alone,' says Coleman, were 375 in
1920 and 402 in 1921. More than
500 are predicted in 1922. Detroit,
by it's safety campaign, reduced child

to 80 in a single year..

PLAINFIELD, July 27:-Finding
a full-hedged sill in operation on
the Charles Payne farm on the
Railway road. yesterday, Chief
Kiely and Lieutenant Higgins I'M
covered what they believe has been
a source of some of the drunkenness
that has been inflicted upon sundry
individuals of the convivial type, in
y lain1ield, and the mystery of some
of the booze which has brought
many to city court who were too far
Ove the bay to remember where
they got it. At any rate their dis
covery revealed a fo~rty-gallon ap-
paratus. and a lot of mash ready
to eradicate the summer thirst.
Chief Kiely finding that the place
was in Middlesex county and out OF
the Plainfeld jurisdiction, turned
the matter over to Chief Cornelius
Mccarthy. of South Plainfield, who
communicated with Middlesex coun-
ty Detective Ferd David, and the
latter will have the outfit removed.
