Harvest is already in progress in Min
ncsota, although in this county farmers
will probably not begin to cut wheat
for several days. We notice that expert
enccd farmers throughout the State are
urging farmers to cut their wheat ear
ly.
S. S. Gardner, of Wadena, says:
Last year began cutting at the stage
above mentioned-a week before any of
my noighbors. The result was u crop
Of No. hard wheat; Il beautiful, high
lor ID, ami e. Lerry, weighing 6lt
pounds per bushel.
Early cutting not only insures loss
| from Smelling, but higher grades. which
means higher prices and better, and
! higher grades of flour.
| J. W. McCiung writes:
! Among the valuable and interesting
facts developed by the discussions last
winter, in the State Farmers club of
legislators and others, was the fact that
wheat harvested before ripe would ripen
in the shock or stack, and make better
flour than if harvested after fully ripe
If this fact is fully appreciated and act
ed upon this year, it may give us a har.
vest q week or ten days earlier than
usual and avoid the disasters of the ap.
pretended July blight.

So far from lightning beng Il danger
most difficult to avoid, it has very SIM

Witness the British navy, which met
500 disasters year 10y lightning till the
ships were provided with conductors.
10y which the fatalities were reduced to
50, among ships in the tropics, exposed
to violent storms, and these may he
fairly charged to carelessness in regard
to the conductors.
Now we should like to have lis opin-
