Foust andwife.Boone county was visited by its first heavy frost of tLe season last Thursday night. Diverse reports come in fiom over the county as to the seriousness done to crops. The principal damage was to late and lowland corn and garden crops.. While some of the com was ready for a light frost to check growth and hasten ripening, some needed two or three weeks yet to put it out of danger. A number of farmers say their late corn is considerably damaged. Others report that while they .hate an abund?nce of soft corn, which is susceptible to frost damage, the temperature Thursday night was not low enough to make the frost seriously destructive. There is no doubt that while the early corn was benefited the late com was in* several places affected.Reports were I'eceived of damage done to tomatoe plants and melon and pumpkin vines, particularly in low places. By Friday noon. most, of the cucumber vines were blackened and withered. The pickle crop in the county is seriously curtailed and the price has jumped several cents per hundred.In the northern part of the state the damage will run into several thousand dollars, it is said. Farmers and gardeners are taking drastic measures to protect the crops from the killing proclivities of another frost.$37300 ESTATE.Mrs. Mattie E. Wiley Wilt Administer Estate of Joseph N.
