Ross, followed by a sign song, "Lead Kindly Light," given In the sign language by six young women and sung by one of the teachers. Throughout the program the members were Interpreted by some of the teachers, though their expressive presen tation rendered their meaning quite evi dent. An essay, "My Walk to School," by Miss Msude Swelfel, was the next num ber given In the sign language and an ora tion, "William McKlnley." by Mr. Dean Smock, illustrated the progress made In teaching the deaf to Ulk.

Much of the first crop of alfalfa has been harvested and aoma of It Is being marketed, with the result that the price has dropped from 111.60 per ton to $3. 1 The acreage of wheat in tais section is fully 15 per cent more than haa ever been known. During the dry. bot weather of April many farmers became discouraged over the outlook for wheat and plowed It up tor corn. Nearly 5 per cent of the acreage suffered thla fate, and fully 20 per cent of the oaU. But the large re maining, acreage" of wheat will, upon the average, make twelve bushels to the acre of the plumpest of grain. Some few fields will run aa high aa twenty bushels. Well posted gralnmen place the oata average at about twenty-eight bushels per acre. Early planted earn Is knee high and Is getting all tba moisture and beat that It requires for fast growing.
