The condition of the crop is 79.1 per cent of normal, as compared to 75.6 on April 1 this year; 105 per cent as compared to May 1 last year and 81 per cent of the ten year average on May 1. The area remaining to be harvested is about 34,165,000 acres, or 11.9 per cent less than planted last fall. WHEAT ACREAGE REDUCED Washington, May 10.—Winter wheat reports received here, the wheat acre- age this year in North Dakota and Minnesota will be about fifteen per cent of that of last year. The reduction in the number of acres in North Dakota which will be seeded to wheat this year seems to be due to the conditions in the north- western part of the-state. In that district the heavy snow in March, which was late in melting, has caused | the fields to be extremely wet and heavy, making the entering of the fields too late to permit of much wheat seeding. Yt is expected that much flax and clover will be seeded, and considerable summer fallowing done in that» section. Farmers in northern Minnesota also are expected to seed a large flax acreage this year. Wheat seeding is about completed in South Dakota, southern Minnesota and southeastern North Dakota, but owing to the cold weather the grain already in the ground is making very little headway. LINTON TO HAVE NEW LIGHT PLANT BY END OF MONTH Will Supply Electricity to Home City, Strasburg and Haz- elton is Plan Linton, N. D., May 10,— Present prospects indicate that Linton will have a real light plant in operation within the next thirty days. The building, located just south of the Thompson yards. fast nearing com- pletion. The machinery for the plant is here and is being installed while work on the building is still in pro- gress. The wiring throughout the town is being gone over and put in shipshape order. It will"be necessary to replace all meters and motors for the new plant. . The alternating system will be used. When the new plant opens for ‘busi- ness, it will -be equipped to handle all the juice needed in Linton, and can take on Strasburg and Hazelton as wéll, Strasburg expects to hook up with Linton, Hazelton may do so, but is hesitating because of the high cost of a feed wire between the two towns. The light plant is a sort of com- munity affair. While a few of the stockholders have invested fairly heavy, most of the stock has been stibscribed in small amounts ‘by the people of the town.

The Women’s Guild of St. & — Kansas City, May 10.—Pioneering | days of journalism in the west were | recalled here recently with the retire-/ ment of Celbe C. Cline, managing j editor of the Kansas City Journal. Mr. Cine vegan his long newspaper career in 1881 as a “Printer’s Devil’? on the Democrat of Leadville, Colo. | When the big “rush™ to the Cherokee Strip opened in 1890 he was an ex-! perienced editor, and he set out for the Indian territory from his parents’ home in a prairie schooner carrying a complete printing plant. Mr. Cline recounted his experiences at a fare-} well banquet in. his honor. The voyaging editor set stakes at Pond Creek, unloaded his printing press and got out what he declares | was the first paper published in the Indian territory carrying an account of the race for land. His editorial office and a ‘saloon, ‘Mr. Cline says, were the first two] business establishments to spring up in Pond Creck. Elected Mayor In the rush of eveats the editor found himself elected the first mayor of Pond Creek. He was elected by a majority of 21 over his lawyer op- ponent, who was his room companion. Serious problems soon confronted the fledgling municipality. “The Rock Island, running north and south, divided Pond Creek into two towns,” Mr. Cline said. “The town on the west side of tlle tracks— that was the ‘other side’—wanted to be ,the county seat. It effected a separate organization and a séparate railroad: station and brought pressure to bear on the railroad not to stop! its trains at ‘our’ station. So wej massed an ordinance making it an of- | fense for trains to run through ‘Pond | Creek at a greater speed than six miles an hour.

Frequently the cough hangs on —soreness of the chest persists— you take cold easily and there may be obstinate catarrh. This condition is slow to clear up and if. neglected may favor the de- velopment of pneumonia, or later on, serious disease of the lungs. Such ‘cases should continue under the care of their physician —should exercise moderately in uit open air—eat plenty of whole- some food—avoid overwork and sudden chills. ‘Nightly applications of Vick’s VapoRub. may help nature to complete the process of repair.

In addition, the medici- nal ingredients of Vicks are vaporized ,by the body heat. ‘These vapors are breathed in all night long, thus bringing the medication to bear directly upon the inflamed areas. Vicks should be rubbed in over the throat and chest until the skin is red—then spread on thickly and covered with hot flannel cloths. Leave the cloth- ing loose around the neck and the bed clothes arranged in the form of a funnel so the vapors arising may be freely inhaled. If the cough is annoying, swallow a small bit of Vicks the size of a pea. Samples to new users will be sent free on request to the Vick Chemical Company, 231 Broad Street, Greensboro, N. C.
