Last week we spoke of newly discov-
cred enemy to wheat-raising reported by
Mr.. Heancy, of Rcnville county. Several
neighboring newspapers mention similar
signs in fields south and east of here. The
insect works in the joints of the wheat,
causing it to crinkle down. A CORE
spondent of the Mankato Free Press says
that the creature that has done this work
in that locality is the Hessian fly. This
authority says that burning the stubble
is about the only way to check the reap
pcarance of this pest next season. and
also recommends early blowing and thor
ough narrowing. While We have seen
no evidence that this insect is in our i'm
mediate vicinity. the conclusion Of the
communication above referred to is ap-
plicable everywhere: ut might he we'll
for farmers to remember that the Hessian
fly never hurts calf. sheep. horse, or
hog, and that all these are profitable to
keep on y farm"

Our neighbors at Beaver are probably
devoutly praying that the voters of this
county may reject the proposition which
has been made to them recently, and thus
give the town between the hills" its
much-needcd opportunity to get up a
real estate boom. The Times endeavors
to keep up its courage with this bit of
information: "Thc Minneapolis & st..
Louis II. r.. Company will build their ex-
tension to the Minnesota river during the
present season, and will adopt one of the
routes surveyed north of Beaver Falls.
So says - letter recently received by one
of our citizens from the railroad COM
|pany."

The Coal Supply.


The Chicago. Milwaukee & St. Paul
r. II. Company promises to do the hand
some thing by the settlers along its lines
in Western Minnesota and Iowa, and in
Dakota. Beginning August 10th it will
send out twenty carloads of coal daily
to these parts. which will be piled up in
sheds prepared for the purpose, to hold a
three months supply. No coal is to be
taken out of these sheds until December
18th. In this way supply will be accu.
mulated that will last beyond any posi-
BILE blockade. If the company fulfills this
promise, coal can be had of its agents

than that adopted by the Northwestern,
which road has evidently delegated to Van
Dusen & Co. the work of providing for
the needs of people dependent on the Wi
mona s. St. Peter road for fuel :ransporta-
ton. This firm has constructed the
necessary sheds along the road for an
adequate supply of coal, and if they are
able to compete in price with the H. & D..
stations, under the above arrangement,
there need be no ground for complaint.
Otherwise, comparisons will surely be
made. as was the case last winter.
The Minneapolis & st. Louis r. R. Co.
are pushing the extension of their road
to the big coal fields belonging to the
company below Fort Dodge. Presi-
dent Washburn feels confident that his
road will be able to land 200 carloads of
Iowa coal in Minneapolis by October 1st.
We hope that by the first of another
October this town and county can draw
its fuel supplies from the same source. or
at least enjoy the benefit of competing
lines of transportation.

Correspondence of the GAZETTE.
The farmers have secured large quanti-
ties of hay for winter use, for stock
about double last years crop.
Many of the farmers have been cutting
their barley, and are nearly through.
The crop of barley is very light in this
section. Some of it will hardly pay the
expense of harvesting.
About three -fourths of the acreage of
wheat about here will hardly pay for
gathering, and about one-half will not
pay for cutting. The balance, or other
fourth. will not yield an average of more
than six bushels to the acre. The blight
and joint worm are making the crop less
every day. Probably the great cause of
crop failure the present year, is the short
drouth in June, and finished up by the
present dry spell. Some may inquire why
the short drouth of the present year af-
fected the crops so much more than the
continued ones of the three previous
years. A close study will explain the rea-
son. In former years, when the springs
were dry, the grain was long time in
coming up, because of lack of moisture,
and to get that needed the roots struck
very deep-so much SO that the follow
ing dry weather hardly effected the grain
through the season. Last spring, the soil
being very wet, the grain came up very
quick-did uot need to strike root any
depth at all. to get the necessary moist
ure for quick and early growth. Three
to five days dry weather later in the sea-
son parched the earth far deeper and be-
low any and all the roots. causing the sur
face to become so hard the dews hardly
effected the roots of the plants, causing
the present blight to all crops; while all
weeds were deeper rooted. grew apace
and have entirely destroyed all crops.
BY looking over the causes here stated.
we will see that it is plain common sense
and say that dry seed time is by far the
best.
