Corn Prospect In Southern Ohio With Favorable Prospects
Corn prospects in southern Ohio look favorable as rains moisten the ground after heavy showers. Weather observers say unusual moisture may prevent corn curtailment, though some flat fields show crusting delaying cultivation. The crop is expected to yield ears more satisfactory than stalk size of last season, with hog prices around a nickel a pound boosting farm activity.

Varieties of Birches and Mountain Legends in 19th Century Notes
Botanists distinguish native white birch Betula populi folia from other birches with smooth white bark. The European Betula alba grows larger than our tree, rarely exceeding 12 inches diameter and 40 feet tall. The Old Man of the Mountains in New Hampshire was found in 1805 by Whitcomb and Notch Brooks, described by Field in 1827, with a 36 to 40 foot chin to forehead vertical. The identity of the Man With the Iron Mask remains disputed among several historical candidates. A Washington Star note critiques exaggerated public speakers by comparing a circus poster to reliable signs.
