Alexandria douglas county, Post:
Wheat is doing finely, although the wealth
er is cool. The late starting of all other
crops and the late bloom of all kinds of
fruits has removed all danger from spring
frosts. When warm weather does come,
everything will move with bound, and
everybody should then stimulate the rapid
growth and quick maturity of all vegeta-
ton that it may escape September frosts.
A warning to farmers: Thomas Feeney,
of Rochester, lost a COW last week from
turning out to grass. She was not out two
hours before he found her dead. The clo-
yer was wet and she had not had any grass
before this season. Mr.. Feeney valued her
at 500. There are reports of quite a
number of cattle having died from being
turned out to clover, and farmers cannot
use too much caution when they turn their
stock ont, especially when the grass is
wet.
Winona Herald: Last Saturday night
about midnight a young Norwegian named
Gustav Foss shot hole through his left
lung down on the levee near the foot of
Franklin street. His spirits had been ele-
waited too much by his elbow and the natur-
al reaction left his spirits at rather low
tide till like Cassius he became ''aweary of
the world" The foolish young man will
not die, but will have plenty of leisure to
regret his folly before his lung heals up
and becomes air tight.
LIE Sueur Sentinel: 1t does not strike
the average locker on as just the best thing
to have barbed wire fence enclosing
several lots in the heart of the town, and
especially adjacent to the business center.
There are several considerations, aside
from the appearance of the thing, one of
which is the danger to life and limb of
persons as we'll as animals, especially in
case of a runaway. Perhaps no other
town in the state would think of erecting
such fence in such a location, much less
tolerate it.
1t is related by the New York Tribune
that nearly half century ago sturdy
Pennsylvania farmer by the name of Love
started for the far West with his family,
but being robbed on the way of all his
money, he had to leave his three children
with strangers while he and his wife toiled
ahead on foot. But they did not prosper,
and never accumulated enough money to
send for their children, who, as years went
On, were themselves separated and lost all
trace of one another and of their parents.
Now, in their old age, they have learned of
one another's existence and that their
mother is still alive at Winona, this state,
and are planning family reunion.
