A cablegram dated July 3, 1013
from the International Institute or
Agriculture, Rome, Italy, whlcli has
Wen received by the United States
Department of Agriculture, states
that in European Russia this year's
' winter wheat crop is estimated us
577,083,000 bushels or 13.8 per ceut
more than last year's production, and
the winter rye crop 017,108,000 bushels
orBO pur cent less than last year's
"production.
The third week in September whs
decided upon us the time for Issuing
the Booster Editions of Nebraska
newspapers. This date was selected
by the executive 'committee of the
Nebraska Press Association, at a meet
ing held last week. In order to cen
tralize the work and to avoid con
fusion, theMctails of the edition were
put in charge of a special committee
of three, C. C. Johns, secretary of the
Hebraska Press Association, Ross
Hammond a member of the Associa
tion, and E. V. Parish, manager of the
llurcau of Publicity of Omaha. A let
ter outlining the plans ns promulgated
ty the committee in charge, will be
.aent to all newspaper men cf the stute
soon. In additlon,(Sccrctary Johns Is
prepalring a list of suggestions, which
may aid in establishing a systematic
line of action. From letters which
faavc been received, It is certain that
more than 200 papers will co-operate
in the edition and it is ijuite probable
that the number will go over 'tho 300
mark.

GOOD TIMES OF THE PAS'?
Peddler Laments Fact That Easy Liv
ing Hat for Him Been Left
Far Behind.
Ho carao towards me over a shoul
der of tho lonely South Downs, a little
old man with back bent beneath the
weight of the pack he carried. There
was a Hquaro box strapped to hie
shoulders In military fashion and a
large satchel hung beneath his arm.
In one hand he bore a basket, In tho
other a large umbrella.
He seemed to be nurslnc a rrlev-
ance, for triero was an indignant
scowl athwart his weather-beaten, red
good-humored face, and the little
white whiskers about his ears seemed
positively to brlstlo with annoyance.
"Mornln', mister," he remarked.
''She" with a wave of his arm towards
a distant cottago "she called me a
awkerl" t
"Oh, Indeed?" said I, rather at fault,
for a hawker was exactly what I took
him 'to be,
"A 'awker!" he repeated, as one
who Btrives against incredulity. "And
me a peddler, with my father a ped
dler afore mo, and 'is father afore
lm!"
"nut what is the exact difference
between a hawker and a peddler?" I
asked.
"All tho difference!" ho snapped.
"Why. I'm known nB a peddler in
a'most every Bouth Down village be
tween 'ere and Eastbourne. I coverr.
this ground rcg'lar, winter and sum
mer, year in and year out I peddles
I don't 'awk!"
"Peddlln ain't what It was though,"
he went on, good temper returning to
him aa he spoke of his woes. "Now,
(ln my father's tlmo, there was good
money to be made 'specially if you
was at all friendly with the smugKlers,
like 'c woe. But now," he added Bar
custlcally, "what with education what
helps folks to write direct to shops
;for what they wants, and what with
advertisements In the papers, and tho
poB'offlce and moty curs why, lt'n
.lucky for mo I nln't got no family to
keep, that's all." Answers, London.
;HELPS WHEN PLANTING SEEDS
'Amateur Gardener Gives a Few Words
of Advice, Seemingly Both 8ea
' sonable and Sensible.
, For a long tlmo I clung to tho old
,way of marking the places where 1
(Bowed In my garden tho seed of an
;uual flowera; that is to Bay, I slipped
Jtlio little envelopes over tho sticks
,'nnd placed these in the beds. Winds
often carried the papers awuy, or rain
washed out tho printed name, nnd I
was no better off than I should have
jhecn If I had trusted to my memory
alone. LaBt year, however, I really
did Improve on thin old plan by plac
ing a small flower pot over each en
,vclopu nnd stick, and it proved to ho
a very satisfactory method,
i A uext door neighbor who wan
(planting coino seeds the other day
ilind, it seemed to mo, a still better
JlJan. She wrote tho namo of tho
flower or vegetable on n slip of paper
,nnd placed It In a tunall bottle, put In
tho cork and stuck tho bottlo half
iwny Into tho soil. By tlus wny, when
you are sowing very fine seeds, like
thoaa of popples or petunias, they
'may bo distributed moro evenly by
putting them in a suit shaker, lirst
mixing them with a ltttlo sand. Phila

The Late "Mrs. President"
When Mrs. A. Alexander MacLach-
Ian was president of the Women's
College club, more than a year ago,
she was sometimes late in arriving to
preside nt the meetings.
One afternoon when the president
happened to be tardy at a meeting sho
found her chair occupied and tho meet
ing begun. Mrs. MacLuchlan slipped
Into a back Beat, but not before she
had been observed by the young wom
an presiding.
After the business under way at
the moment had been transacted the
presiding officer arnso and said:
"Wo have with ub now tho late Mrs,
iMacLuchlun, who will kindly come
lorwara ana tune tne cnair. '
Loved Honour More.
A clever little English girl, who In
sisted that she might spell "honor" so,
loved she not "honour" more, had
fallen among Americans and was be
ing qulszed by her companions about
her manner of spelling that good word
and others llko it.
"And do you spell 'behaviour' with
the U?" she was asked.
"Oh, yes." she reolled. "Mv mnthr
would not think It waa good behaviour
to speu it without the U."
