Early in the 18th century, tobacco seed
from America was taken to Turkey. Different
soil. different climate, different temperatures
night and day, and different farming methods
produced an entirely new tobacco-small in
size, but very rich and aromatic.
This tobacco is known generally as Turkish
tobacco; but there are as many varieties OF
Turkish as there arc kinds of apples.

S. c. Fire Department
Answers Two Calls
Shed Destroyed On Weiner Farm
East Of City-House at West
Union Burned

Wednesday afternoon the Sank
Centre Fire department was called
to the Mrs. John Weiner farm, oc-
cupied by her son, Ben Wiener, to
subdue a fire started in the tobacco
shed, wooden structure about
20x4O. Il
Mr.. Weiner was i'll in bed at the
time. His wife had been burning
some rubbish and the fire may have
started from sparks. They live
some distance away from the Harry
Knapp farm where a telephone call
was sent in at about 800 o'clock.
Chief Geo. Fish and five men re-
sponded at once. They found ade-
quate water facilities. While the
shed was too far gone to save it
from destruction, the garage and
house nearby were not injured. It
is understood the building was in
sured.
Shortly before midnight July 4
the Sank Centre Fire Department
answered a call to West Union
where they found a house across
the road from the Catholic church
on fire. The blaze had too much
Roadway to save the structure. The
family routed out saved a portion
of their household goods. Chief
Fish informs the Herald that there
was $500 insurance in the loans
and $500 on contents. The occu-
pant of the house did not own the
property.

Gains In Business
All Over Country
Survey Shows Great Increase In
Number Employed and
Total Payrolls

New York, July 51Business all
over the country has shown a re-
cent marked improvement accord
ing to survey released by the
New York Board of Trade. In gen.
eral, the survey showed great in
creases in the number employed,
the hours per week and total pay
rolls. Many business men reported
substantial increases in the rate of
wages.
The replies were received from
Chambers of Commerce, Boards of
Trade and similar organizations in
1900 american cities. They were ac-
companied by graphs, charts and
statistics which proved decisive
gains industrially for the months of
May and June.
Percy C. Magnus, president of the
New York Board Of Trade, COM
menting upon the report, said:
1.-THE conclusion is that the de-
preston is over and that we are
well on the road to recovery. The
four months of March, April, May
and June witnessed economic
changes of colossal proportions.
Business is now in the con-
valescence stage. There may be
some setbacks; we all sincerely
hope not. We are now probably
well on the way to one of the great
est periods of stabilized prosperity
in the whole business history Of this
country"

'Babies suffer more than adults
in hot weather" the doctors note.
Each year it is necessary to warn
over-anxious mothers against
clothes for infants when it is hot.
Baby's costume should consist of
nothing but a diaper and he should
have frequent baths. He should
not be trotted out for visits and
exhibitions. The greatest possible
care should be exercised in the care
Of his food to keep it pure, in or
der to avoid intestinal upsets."
Closing the house early while it
is cool and keeping it closed and

method suggested by the doctors
to preserve a cool spot for relaxa-
ton.

glad to see the Stearns Coun-
ty fair continue during these
times of depression. The ex-
hibits of livestock and agri-
cultural products, while per-
haps not up to past years of the
fair, I considered very credit
able exhibits to be placed under
present conditions. These are
times when farmers do not
feel justified in going to the
expenditure of fitting stock for
fairs as they did when condi-
tions were more favorable.
do feel, however, that more
farmers should take advantage
of the opportunities which they
have to exhibit livestock and
agricultural products at our
county fairs. I believe that
our top herds of beef and dairy
cattle, as well as hogs and
sheep, should be exhibited reg
ularly at our fairs, even though
farmers do not find it possible
to finish their show stock as
they did in times when prices
were better.
