Crops of Dakota,

James Boynes, statistical agent of Dakota,
has prepared his report on crops, and sent il
to Washington. The following is a synopsis:
Wheat harvest i'll South Dakota is well under
way, and while farmers are straining the capac-
ity of selfbinders, they are yet unable to com
plete work before past ripe grain wastes by
scattering. Wheat will be in shock in few
days Stacking has already commenced The
yield will evidently be better, but not so great
proportionately, per acre; but only threshing
will determine the exact status of the yield. In
North Dakota harvest is just commencing in
some localities, while in others it will not be-
gin for a week Some fields will make 35
bushels per acre, but the most only Is to Is
The only great danger is the ruthless pelting
of hailstones. Grant county reports the prev
alence of smut in soft wheat Hand coun-
ty reports some blighted wheat The acreage
is placed at 100000 acres, and promises
about 10 bushels to the acre, which is equiva-
lent to 25, 800, 600 bushels of better quality of
grain than last year.

Working the Soil.

Flowing and narrowing have long
been the two chief operations in culti-
walton, and the general idea has been
that we plowed the land so it would
harrow easier, and that narrowing was
done to make the soil loose so we could
put the seed in. For general purposes
these reasons are sufficient as long as
they insure thoroughness in the work.
But we can easily apply well-known
principle that will help us understand
the importance Of the work and aid us
in some cases to decide what to do and
when to do it. All substances decay
faster when exposed to air and moisture
therefore the more the soil is stirred and
pulverized the more plant-food will be
developed.

''There is nothing in the reports this year

marked Gen. Newton, chief of engineers, when
questioned about the reports of coast defense.
"They show the utter defenseless condition of
our coast and the impossibiity of repulsfng an
attack by the navy of any second or third
European power. The defenses of Washing
ton form the most striking example though
national capital, the capitol building, and that
important Institution called the treasury, pro
tected by two dismantled, decaying and super
animated forts that are utterly useless. 1t is

Assistant Postmaster General Hatton is spoken

absence of the president the rumor could not

is generally believed that the judgeship has
been rendered to Mr.. Gresham and he only
hesitates about accepting the place because he
wishes to run as candidate for senator from

II was only tiny seed,
Carelessly brushed aside;
But it grew in time to a noxious weed
And spread its poison wide.
1t was only q little leak,
So small you might hardly see;
But the rising waters found the break,
And wrecked the great levee.
1t was only single spark,
Dropped by a passing train,
But the dead leaves caught, and swift and dark
Was its work on wood and plain.
II was only an unsound nail
That the workman used--ah mel
But the ship, that else had weathered the gale,
Went down in the deep, dark sea.
1t was only thoughtless word,
Scarce meant to be unkind;
But it pierced as dart to the heart that
heard,
And left its sting behind.
1t may seem a trifie at most,
The thing that we do or say;
And yet it may be that at fearful cost
We may wish it undone some day.
