SEES HOPE FOR GREAT CORN CROP Burlington Report Says Only Plent§ of Sunshine and Some Rains Later Are Needed. BUMPER WHEAT CROP COMING The Burlington’s crop report for the week ending last Saturday indi- cates a most favorable condition so far as crops all over Nebraska are concerned. The report shows that rains continued general over the state until about the middle of the week, when they ceased and the weather became much warmer. This change, according to the report, was beneficial to all growing crops, es- pecially corn, which since has made rapld progress and is now close to the normal condition at this time of the year. While the Burlington's report generally is optimistic, & bumper corn crop is not predicted, this being its language “As stated in previous reports, corn had a bad start and locally some of the first planting was damaged. The crop, as a whole, can bardly be said to be damaged, as there Is ample time and sunshine after July 1 to make a corn crop in Nebraska. it is stmply a question of molsture the latter part of the season. 8o far os present conditions of corn {s concerned, we may have any kind of & ecrop, or no crop.”’ Corn Crop Entimate. As compared with conditions in the past at this time of yegr and on the basis of & perfect crop being 100 per cent, by aivi- elons. the corn now ls estimated as fol- lowa: and able acreage was damaged by excessive raine a week ago, the Nebraska winter ‘Wheat crop, according to the Burlington's Cook divisions, where a consider- report, continues in perfect condition.

Summer Suggestions for Baby’s Mother Seasonable Advice on the Health of Children in Hot Weather No one requires so much food in sum. mer as in winter. Do not overfeed chil- dren Auring the hot weather. Serve on- ly the lighter and more easily digested foods, and make sure the bowels keep normally active. Most of the troubles to which children seem particulariy susceptible fn summer have thelr origin in a constipated con- dition. The first care of the mother should be to seé that the children are regular. At the first sign of a dispo- sitfon to neglect this important func- tion a mild laxative should be adminis- tered promptly. Cathartics and purga- tives should never be given to chilaren as they are harsh and violent in their action and tend to upset the entire system. The combination of simple laxative herbs with pepsin, soM in diug stores under the name of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, is now very generally used to correct stomach and bowel trou- ble and is especially adapted for chil- dren, being pleasant to the taste, mild!
