G. w. Van Dusen 4 Co., grain Deal.
ers, have issued a circular to their
agents along the lines Of the Winona
& st. Peter railroad, instructing them
in the purchase of barley and prohibit.
ing them from purchasing any barley
that has not gone through the sweat.
ing process before threshing. The
firm holds that the practice prevalent
among many farmers to cut and thresh
their barley without stacking it is a
disastrous way to do. Grain thus pre-.
pared for market would be condemned
as soon as it reached Chicago, there.
fore none Of that quality will be pur.
chased, and farmers will consult their
own interests by stacking their barley
and allowing it to sweat prior to
fthreshing it.

RE has come and gone, and we must
say we were agreeably surprised at its
makeup. The menagsrie is not so ex.
tensive as Coles or Forepaugh' 5, yet il
embraces manyeinteresting features.
The ring performance was as good as
1 we have seen in many larger and more
pretentions concerns, and as a whole
gave very general satisfaction. The
trained dogs, the trapeze performance
tumbling and the acrobatic perform
ance Of Master Willie porr was. pro:
nounced good by all present. The
managers, and in fact everyone con.
nected with the show, are gentlemen
who mean to do the fair thing by every
body, and had they visited our city al
any other time thanh the busy season
Of harvest they would have been greet
ed by large audiences.
