THE STRICkING MINERS.
4 Crisis Soon TO be ReaChed-TrOuble e
Feared IN Some Quarters.

CoLUMBUs, Ohio, Aug. %.
All the miners of the Sunday Creek valley
and along the line of the Ohio Central Rail
road quit work today. The union miners are
all out in both valleys. The cause for quit.
ting in Sunday Creek valley is said to be that
some of the cars of the Hooking valley syn
dcate were being used. The usual advance
to so cents was looked for by the minnrs
September lst, but the operators now say
that no more coal will be mined in the valley
at a higher figure than 30 cents. as this val
ley was the principle support of idle miners
of the Hooking valley region, The crisis of
the strike will soon be reached. Trouble is
feared in some quarters.

HOW TO SLEEP TELLe

No healthful sleep comes except that
which follows voluntary or involuntary
action Of the body. Pedestrians fall
into sound, deep sleep as soon as put to
bed, at the appointed time for rest.
This is the sleep from voluntary
muscular exercise. A person in
good health sits around the house all
day; an invalid may all day sit and
lounge and lie down from morning un-
til night without sleeping1 and both the
healthy man and tho invalid. in the
course OF the evening, will become sleepy
and fall into sound repose, the result Of
the weariness which Involuntary action
brings about; for the various organs OF
the body, the heart, the liver, the ston-
ach, the eyelids. work steadily every

There is not a movement Of the system,

on the sensation Of sleepiness, which is
the result Of exhausted power, intended
by nature to secure that cessation hona

hon, very much as man who runs for

| Seeding Reports. 5~.sl
From Wednesdays Pioneer Press.
MINNESOTA REPORTS
In seme Of the extreme upper counties
of this state the seeding has not been
completed. This is the case in st. Louis
county, wkere the seed was about half in
when Saturdays. rain came and inter
rupted progress. The farmers, however,
welcomed the rain. They win probably
finish seeding this week. In Tedd,
StearRs and adjoining counties in the
central part of the state: matters are pro-
crossing favorably. Many fields sewn
early are green and looking we'll. From
Kandiyobi, Stevens, Swift and Aeeker
counties there is nothing new reported.
A farmer from Kandiyohi stated to re-
porter yesterday that there h ad been some
frosty nights in his section, but that the
warm weather last week gave the grain
a good start, and jj'a N amy places 1t was
an inch and . half above: ground! "a In
some of the counties above named there
has been slight increase in the general
acreage, owing TO the breaking Of new
ground, but no greater area is sown te
wheat than last year. Reports from the
southern tier of counties are Of the same
general tenor as, those last received.
Farmers are there preparing the ground
for corn, though from Faribault and
Freeborn counties it is reported less
acreage will be given to corn and more
to barley and oats than last year.
IN DAKOTA.
Some of the large farms in the Red
River valley have not yet been fally
seeded. Reports from that great wheat
growing country and all parts of Dakota
continue encouraging, and indications
are OFFS greatly increased acreage in new
sections. In Foster county, for instance,
the wheat acreage this season is $4,000
against 1900 last year. 1t is reported
from, there that none of last years crop
remains in the hands of the farmers.
Wheat, lettuce, radishes and onions are
up in the more southern counties of
Beadle and Miner Farmers in these
counties are blowing for corn and break
ing up rev ground for fax. Treesplant-
ing is also being attended to on quite an
extensive scale. In LaMoure county 49,
600 acres will be .sowA to graia of all
kinds this year. Down iii Southeastern
Dakota-that is, in the radius of at least
fifty miles about Sioux Fa]ls-the grain
is nearly all in, and in better shape than
ever before. Every available acre has
been seeded, and all things being favora,
bic the crop next spripg will be the
largest ever grown in that section. The
heavy rain Monday night found seeding
nat quite completed in sozne places, and
therefore causes SOME delay.
