Friday evening of la.-t week the p!il were delightfully entertained at the home of Dr. and Mrs. C. W. Har gen. The evening was spent in listen ing to talks by Hot Springs people. Among the speakers was V. K. Mar tin, founder of the Battle Mountain tanitarium, who spoke upon "Nature," and discussed his s-ubject in such a way as to juite captivate the Alliance gins. A telegram was read from Mrs. Grace Harriman, national Cumpfue president, a Fi'ster of the hostess. The telegram read as follows: "As nat'onal president of Campfire Girls, I send them a greetif.g through you as my sister. , Tell them my love and pride in them grows stronger every day and that I am with them in cpirit. Beg them to love and have faith in me and my loyalty and desire to io everything in my power to be worthy of that trust. Love to my Campfire Girls and to my sister." Mrs. Hargen gave a little talk to the girls on "Service." She said that when she attended the lat national Campfire convention in New York, Hot Springs was the smallest city in the country to have a Campfire or ganization. She told of some of the services of the Hot Springs people, and summed it up by saying that if pen-ice is to be found in the smaller places, it can be found anywhere.

The condition of tints which has been more or less uncertain since the early damage from the freeze and high temperatures the latter part of June will probably fall helow the average in the final return. The con- dition of 7K"r compared to S4rva month a so forecasts a crop of flOO bu.-hels as compared to S3 0 10,000 bushels bt year. Oat yields vary cnnsi-lerably. That part of the cio which was left unthreshed in the shock has been damaged by the several ra'ns since harvest. The rye crop is good and the yield of 13 bushels places the production at 4.0sn,n00 bushels compared to 3.. 22,- 000 bushels last year. Ihe crop is thud in size, being exceeueu in and 1010. More Barley Produced. It is a curious fact that the produc tion of barley has shown a marked in crease during the past few years in spite of the supposed disuse of that cereal, as the present crop is second in size on the record. The condition at Were oft perplexed, when forms un the time of harvest indicated a crop spvp.1 of 6,756.000 bushels a3 compared to 7,242,000 bushels last year, the highest on the record. The condition of all hay is 8. k and the forecast 5,683,000 tons compared to 6,570,000 tons last year. Most of the reduction is caused .by the part'al failure of one or more of the alfalfa crops. The conditions of the minor crops in per cent, are as ionow.: i.a, ju., apples, 12; timothy. 2; clover yield, 1.33 tons; alfalfa, i9; millet, 83; past- ure, 83; field beans, 89; tomatoes, 88; ruhbaces. 85: onions, 90; grapes, 82; blackberry and raspberry production, 1 79; watermelons, muskme:ons and cantaloupes, 8;; sugar ueeis, sw.
