Dr. ami Mrs. Weese are lioino
from their trip east. The Doc
tor reports the army worm and
drouth are doing up the corn
ami hay crop of southern Illi
nois anil eastern Missouri while
Kansas is jut one hig wheat
field. In Pennsylvania the
crops are poor. Over one third
of the engines of the Pennsyl
vania railroad are idle ami the
aid-tracks are filled with miles
of dump cars, with intensely
hot weather. Many of the other
eastern railroads are also run
ning on short schedule. It is
thought that the railroads are
waiting for a favorahle decision
in the rate cases. The Doctor
took a special course at John
Hopkins, Baltimore.

When in these warm sum
mer days you do not wish
to be over the stove all day
we can help you out with
Fresh Foods already cooked
and fresh berries and fruits.
Also these hot days when your
flour has not strength enough to
overcome the warmth, remember
we have FLOUR that tests 34 and
better which would enable you to
make light flaky bread while flour
that tests around 20 is very hard
to handle and also lacks making as
many loaves to the sack.
