According to tho usual parities and using tho govern ment's ncrengo figures, crop condi tion percentage August 1st Indicat ed liiol yields tin follews: Winter wheat 420,000,000 against an offi cial yield in 1D07 of 400,442,000: spring wheal 240,000,000 ngalnBt tho J 007'-final 224,015,000; or n total indicated wheat crop of nearly 072,000,000 ngalnBt about 034,000, 000 last year. Tho opinion of tho foremost pri vate authorities is, that tio govern ment's Indicated yield is at least 20,OOfJ,000 busholu too high for spring wheat and about 40,000,000 loo lilgh for winter wheat.

Are we elaltoiag too much for Peruna whea we ckim it to be sin effective reraady for chronio catarrh ? Havo we abundant proof that Peruna is in real ity such a catarrh remedy ? Let us sco what the United States Dispensatory says of the principal ingredients of Peruna. Take, for instance, the ingredient Hydrastis cmadomis, or golden seal. Tho United Statca Dispensatory says of this horbal remedy, that it ia largely employed in tho treatment of depraved mucous mombranos, chronic rhinitis (nasal catarrh), atonio dyspepsia 'ca tarrh of the stomach), chronic intesti nal catarrh, catarrhal janndico (ca tarrh of tho liver), and in diseased mucous membranes of tho pelvic organs. It is also rccotnmended for tho treatment of various forms of dis eases peculiar to women. Another ingredient of Peruna, cory dalis formosoy ii classed in the United States Disponsatory a a tonic. So also is cubobs classed as a atoraachio and as a tonio for the mucous membranes. Cedron seeds is another ingredient of Peruna, an excellent drug that has been very largely overlooked bv the medical profession for the past fifty years. The seeds are to be found in very few drug store. The United States Dispensatory says of the action of cedron that it is used as a bitter tonio and in tho treatment of dysen tery, and in intermittent diseases as a substitute for quinine. Oil of copaiba, another ingredient of Peruna, is classed by the United States Dispensatory as a mild stimu lant and diurotic. It acts oh tho stom ach and intestinal tract It acta as a stimulant on tho gonlto-urinary mem branes. Usofnl in chronio cystitis, chronio dysentery and diarrhea, and somo chronio diseases of the liver and kidnoys.
