FALLING OFF IN
CABBAGE CROP
State Report Says it viii
be 1870 Less Than Last
Years Crop.
SLUMP IN KENOSHA


Madison The cabbage crop in Wis
consin is forecasted to be 1870 below
last years production, according to
the State and Federal Crop Report
ing office announcement today. The
lower production is one chiefly to the
crop being in poorer condition than a
a year ago, this years condition
of $3.50 being points below last year.
The forecast is 141,000 tons as compar-
ed to 10000 tons last year.
Last years cabbage acreage in Wis
consin was one of the largest on rec
ord in the state. With poor prices
for cabbage last fall, marked de-
crease in acreage might have occur
red, but the higher prices that were
paid for cabbage taken out of stor-
age have undoubtedly influenced
farmers to make only slight reduc-
ton. This years acreage is 800 less
than last year. In Racine, county, the
largest growing county, the acreage
has increased 2, Outagamie county.
the second largest cabbage county,
has maintained practically the same
acreage as last year. reduction of
1870 has taken place in Kenosha coun-
ty. In Fond du Lac and Pierce Ncoun-
ties the cabbage acreage has been re-
duced per cent and % per cent re-
spectively.
New York Shows Increase.
fPhe preliminary estimate of the
acreage of late cabbage in New York
state shows an increase of 6@o. Con-
ditions in New York state is below
average being reported as 500, or 6
points below the average condition
for the past nine years. New York and
Wisconsin lead all other states in
growing cabbage.
Except in the northern part of the
state, pastures in Wisconsin were
short and dry. Condition in the south
western part of the state is reported
as low as 1870 of normal. Generally,
pastures had been grazed short and
failed to make much growth before
droughts developed. Rainfalls of late
July and August, together with cooler
weather, are expected to bring about
an improvement.
Fire blight, which seems to be veYy
general in the state, and dry weather
have lowered the condition of apples
to 1879 of normal. The condition in
Dictated a crop of the same size as
last year. The condition of CONNER
cial orchards is better being 5000.
Wisconsin farmers have increased
the acreage of sugar beets this year
by $40. The relatively high condi-
ton of 500 on August l forecasts a
production of 173, 900 tons, or 400
above last years production. The
sugar beet production for the United
States is forecasted to be 2O%o above
last year.
Milk Price Higher.
The July milk price this year shows
a very slight increase over that of
June, the average price received by
farmers for July milk being reported
as $1,95 per cwt. as compared to the
June price of $1S3. This years July
price was 43c per cwt. more than. a
year ago. The bottom Of the decline
ink milk prices was reached in June
1921, when the average price of milk
was $1.26 per cwt. Since that time
the trend has been constantly upward.
The average prices for the first seven
months of 1923 are 800 above the
prices for the same period last year.

large audience at Zion and was dis
cussing the story of Lazarus and the

come up as location, and Voliva said

was the city of Chicago.
"At SUNRISE" Voliva went on, "the
sun is just as high above the earth
as it is at MONDAY. If we were to
stand in New York and see the sun
disappear we would say the sun sets,
and yet if you were in San Francisco
the sun would still be up and would
not set till three hours later. There
is literally no sunrise or no sunset.

Before the ascention of Jesus
Christ, Hades had two compartments

sinners. Between these two locations
there was a great gulf, and it was in
one of these places, called Paradise,

across the gulf, in the other~place.
