WHEAT is likely to be wheat this year.
The Chicago Tribune AYERS, on what it
assumes to be reliable detailed intorma-
ton, that the winter wheat crop will be
at least one third short, while the spring
wheat acreage is not much in excess OF
last year, with possible disastrous contin-
gencics to intervene between now and the
maturity of the crop. The "bulls' also
proclaim a shortage in Europe, and figure
out that the United States will have barely
enough for their own consumption, and
not pound 10 export. These calculations,
at this season, should be taken with sew.
eral grains of allowances; but the outlook
certainly justlf1es the anticipation of
good prices, with the probability thatthe
wheat belt Of Minnesota and Dakota will
be the only one that will be blessed with
an abundant yDld. -Minpenpo j Journal.

Making Watches.

Defective watch cases are one of the chief
causes of SO many watches not being good
time pieces. The cases being thin and not
fitting we'll, admit dust and dirt to the move
ment, which soon interferes with the running
parts of the watch, necessitating cleaning, re.
pairing, &C., and the amount thus paid out IL
applied toward buying good case in the
beginning, would have saved all this trouble
and expense. We have recently seen case
that meets all these requirements, 1T having
been carried for over twenty years and still
remains perfect. We refer to the JAS. BOSS
PATENT STIFFENED GOLD CASE, which has
become one of the staple articles of the jew
elry trade, possessing as it does so many
advantages over all other watch cases, being
made OF two heavy plates of solid gold over q
plate of composition, and we advise all our
readers to ask their jeweler for card or cat
alogue that will explain the manner in which
they are made.
It is the only stiffened case made with two
plates of gold. seamless pendants, and center.
solid joints. crown pieces, &C., all of which
are covered by letters patent. Therefore buy
no case before consulting jeweler who keeps
the JAS. BOSS PATENT STITFENED GOLD
CASE, that you may learn the difference be-
tWee 1t and. al limitations that claim to be
equally as good. IS 80 -s

THE causes of impure water in the
large cities are found in all the small
cities; but their effects are less rapid in
appearance. There ought to be very
stringent laws prohibiting the practice of
casting filth and. sewerage into rivers
whose waters are used for drinking.
Pure water is necessity, and with a
brother editor we say, "Let the temper
ance people give us pure water to drink,
and an abundance of it on every street"
In no other way can they do more for the
cause; for people will be 10th to forego
drinks which disguise the terrible odor
and taste Of water coming from streams
receiving the sewerage of cities and
slaughter houses.

zens Of that county, both being On cita-
tions Tor non-payment of personal pro-
perty taxes for the year 1877, and tried
by him and taken under advisement at
the October 1879 fern Of the District
Court. The decisions are against the
state and are based mainly on the grounds
that the return Of the assessor of this
township for the year the taxes were
levied was net verified by the assessor;
and that the Board of Equalization that
passed upon said taxes was not properly
constituted with the Deputy County
Auditor as one of its members instead OF
the Auditor in person.
