SOW SMALL GRAIN. The farmers never have givei enough attention to small grain but it seems to us there are tnori reasons now than ever before foi sowing grain. Labor is too higl and too uncertain to mal e tnucl if any profit in raising corn, cot ton, etc. There is much less la bor and therefore less expensi about grain than other crops besides, the corn and fodder croj this year is small and the priei will be very high to those win have to buy. Rye is a great crop for wintei grazing and if cut just befon fully ripe it is good feed forhorsei and mules as well as cattle Wheat cut in its dough state 01 just before it is fully ripe is first class feed for horses, mules ant cattle. Thousands of the besi farmers raise it for teed only. It this case you use the wheal without paying toll tothe thresh er or wheat mill. We wish to re mind all who think that nothing but corn will do for horses ant mules that it was not known ex cept in America for nearly si) thousand years of the world'i history. If you sow grain you have i good summer pasture for hogs cat tle, horses and mules after tin grain is cut. This pasture comei in at a time when there is noth ing much in the woods for stock If you follow your grain wit! peas you can greatly improvi your land and raise from the pes vines much feed for the winter If you do not plant peas aftei your grain or pasture on the land you can generally get a good crop of crab grass hay. Rye should be planted at once and it will very soon be time to sow wheat and oats. The Democrats of New Jersey have nominated James M. Sey mour, Mayor of Newark, for Governor. Mayor Seymour has been thrice elected to the Mayor ship, in a city that goes 3;ooo to J,000 Republican Majority in national elections. He has made an excellent mayor and would make equally as good a Govern or should he be fortunateenough to be elected in November. Cotton Crop Conditions. Washington, Oct. 1 ?The last weekly summary of crop condi tions to be issued by the Weather Bureau this season says: The weather conditions in the cotton belt have been very favor able for picking, except over por of Georgia, Florida and North Carolina, where this work has retarded to some extent by rains of the latter part of the week. Picking has progressed rapidly in the central and western dis tricts, where cotton has opened rapidly, the bulk of the crop be ing gathered in some sections. Over the eastern portion of the cotton belt the low temperatures of the week have damaged the staple in portions of North Car olina, Georgia and Florida, while the sea island crop of South Car olina is suffering from drought. In Texas, late cotton is being damaged by boll weevil and other insects, and the outlook for top crop is very poor. Dont fail to see our nice line of shoes before buying we have the best line ever offered for the money. Peedix liuos. WEEKLY CROP REPORT. LAST CROP REPORT FOR THIS SEASON. ? Special Cotton Bulletin flay be Issued Later. The last of the weekly crop Bulletins for the season of 1001, - which are issued by Director Von I Herrmann of the Weather Bu k reau, appeared Monday. The Weather Bureau announces that it will issue a special bulletin in case of any inurked injury to ii the cotton crop during October, because of the lateness of the crop. 'Fhe report issued Mon day, which is for the week ending ' Monday, September BOtli is as ,f follows: Generally fair weather prevailed during the greater portion of the past week, which was very favor able for farm work, such as lack ing cotton, tnuking hay, plowing, etc., but rather low temperature from Monday to Saturday pre vented much further progress in the growth of vegetables. A ' general rain with brisk to high - easterly winds began Friday i'I night, and some local heavy i showers damaged unstacked hay , and open cotton at many places on both Saturday and Sunday. 1 The rainfall the latter part of the " week#\vas quite unnecessary and - only hindered farm work. The .1 soil is now in very good condition for plowing, atul much progress ill t li.it wni'L* vvji si 111:1111> Sumo winter oatu have heen sown, and preparations indicate that a large acreage will be seeded to winter wheat. Splendid crops of crab grass and pea-vine hay were saved ; fodder pulling is now gen erally completed. The cool weather has prevt nted any further development of the top bolls of cotton; many bolls I are small, hard, plainly imma ture and valueless. Shedding and rust are still reported frogi several sections. Cotton opened rather slowly during the week, t but picking made fairly good headway, where there were suffi j cient hands tor the work. Corn " is turning out a very poor crop, j except on some uplands. Tobacco 1 is nearly all cut. Sweet potatoes _ I are yielding fairly well, as also peanuts, rice and held peas. Fall M cabbage and late Irish potatoes * are poor. Turnips have improved and are growing very nicely. The \ season has been very favorable for setting out strawberry plants, ' and a considerable increaseinthe f' acreage devoted to strawberries s is apparent. Lincoln's Remains Re-Interred. J Springfield, III., Sept. 2(5.?The remains of Abraham Lincoln ' were placed ta-dav in what it is * expected will be iis last resting * place. The casket was taken ? from its former place in the tnon ( anient to Memorial Hall, and was there reopened. It was finally placed in the vault recent ' j ly completed by the Lincoln Mon > lament Association. It is under stood the remains were not in a very good state of preservation, but were easily identified. You Can Lead a Horse to water but you can't make him drink. You can't make him eat either. You can stuff food in to a thin man's stomach but that doesn't make him use it. Scott's Emulsion can make him use it. How? By mak ing him hungry, of course. Scott's Emulsion makes a thin body hungry all over. Thought a thin body was naturally hun gry didn't you ? Well it isn't. A thin body is asleep?not working?gone on a strike. It doesn't try to use it's food. Scott's Emulsion wakes it up?puts it to work again making new flesh, That's the way to get fat. Send for free sample. ,U >TT & BOWN F, ChcmiMs. 4'*i Pearl St., U.
