E DO FARMERS TALK TOO . -MUCH ABOUT THEIR CROPS? Rome Truth in Contention That Farmers Talk Too Much About Their Crops. v A Cass county farmer comes to Die front with the suggestion that the farmers lire foolish to give out uny advance information ahout Iheir crops, and that the proper way to deal with the experts who come around or send around to find out about corn, wheat, oats, eta., is to tell them it is none of their business. His idea is that this information is used for the benefit of the speculator and the grain handler, and that the pro ducer gets' the worst of it. Theoretically, there, is some thingtto this contention, since a large use of this advance infor mation , in in discounting the future. Practically, however, in formation as Id I he condit ion of Crops and the prospects for yields cannot, be withheld or concealed. The farmer's lleids lie out in the Open; ami the ability to accurately unserve and 10 estimate yields is riot confined to the producer. Ite- Fides, the farmers have been ar customed so ion;; to answering questions about crops that he couldn't help telling when asked. It is not entirely clear, either, that information about crops, actual and prospective, is entirely the business of the agriculturist. The principal reason is that as crops are the business barometers of each year and so much is depend ent upon the yields that to clap a cover on this barometer would be about as foolish as putting one on that which adorns our weather bureaus.

The features of the game was the bat tery work of Ootsch and Wolff, Ootsch striking out eleven men and allowing but three singles, while the pegging to second base was Wolff's long suit. The score was tied in the eighth inning and the visitors annexed one run in their part of the ninth, while the locals were cut off by the most sensational catch of the game, when 'J. Salberg made a running catch to right field and followed with a catch of a line drive which looked out of his reach. With the stick Salberg, F. Ossonkop and Wolff were stars, each connecting three time for safe ones. The locals worked a bunt out to per fection in tbe eighth, which was partly responsible for the scores it took to Ue the game. Stokes was' hit freely and received some poor support, but managed to keep the score down by holding the visitors on the bases. Satur day, August 13, the local team plays the fast little aggregation from Cedar Creek and a good game may be looked for. William F. Hogcboon.
