Farmers of Morrow County are
contracting wheat early this year. . W
S. Wharton reports a number of con
tracts made through him at a price of
sixty cents. He has just purchased
the crop of J. B. Carmichael, The
farmers consider the opening price for
new wheat very good In view of the
large wheat crop reported in the Unit
ed States and Canada. Minnesota
the Dakotas and Montana have more
than an average crop. Kansas reports
a crop from ninety to one hundred
million bushels, this 13 more than
double the entire crops of Idaho,
Washington and Oregon combined.
The wheat crop of the Inland Empire
belt embracing Idaho, Washington
and Oregon is now conceded by the
best authorities to be fully sixty per
cent of a full crop. The wheat crop
of Canada in its Northwest territory is
said to be by far the largest crop of its
history. It is estimated that two
hundred million of bushels will find its
way to the markets of the world from
this new field.

Slimmer Diarrhoea iu Children
During the hot weather of the sum
mer months the first unnatural loose

mediate attention, so as to check the
disease before It becomes serious.
All that is necessary is a few doses of
Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy followed by a dose
of castor oil to cleanse the system.
Rev. M. 0. Stockland, Pastor of the

berlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy for several years and find it a
very valuable remedy, especially for
summer disorders in children." Sold
