ern 11.48 bushels per acre, the average for the state 10.91 bushels per acre
One year ago the estimates were for
the southern counties 15.57 bushels;
for the central 15.05, and for the northern 15.46 bushels, the average for the
state being 15.47 lushels. The reports
as to quality "vary greatly from tie
same and adjoining localities some of
the correspondents- reporting- the quality "good," others '-'average,'f and still
others "very poor."' In: tho state 265
report the quality "good," 373 "average*' and 104"bad-"
The number huishels of wheat reported marketed in July is 437,894 as .compared with S47,972'reported:marketed

only three-tenths of the yield in average years, and the condition-of mead-,
ows and pastures is but 31 per cent Of
condition in average years. Clover
sowed this year is nearly an entire failure, the estimates showing' condition
but 13 per cent of an average.

For Scrofula.
"Since childhood, I have been
afflicted with scrofulous boils and
sores, which caused me terrible
suffering. Physicians were unable
to help me, and I only grew worse
under   their   care.
At length, I began
to take
AVER'S
Sarsapariila, and
N very soon grew better. After using
half a dozen bottles
I was completely
cured, so that I have not had a boil
or pimple on any part of my body
for the last twelve years. I caii
cordially recommend Ayer's Sarsapariila as the very best blood-purifier
in existence." — G. T. Reinhakt,

An experience with ihis disease during

claim that Dr. Bang's New Discovery will
positively cure each and every case if taken
in time, and patient takes the ordinary eare
to avoid exposure. Another thing has been
proven, that those who have nsed Dr. King's
New Discovery, escape the many tronble-
