HoPs.--This article of prsdust has
been a source Of the greatest general
disappointment this year. It was sap
posed all over the country, during the
summer and early fall. that the crop
would be short, and that keen demand
and high prices would rule all over the
hop consuming world. So well ground
cd was this idea that in August and
September prices advanced rapidly.
They went up In two or three jumps to

was talked Of, and fos few choice lots In
California was given, bat that prics was
not reached In Oregon or Warrington
at any time. Still, growers here wero
20 confident that 30 and 60 cents q
pound would be given before the end Of

The Outlook, published at Yankton,
in speaking Of Turner county's flowing
wells, says:
!" So far rs The Outlook has any infor-
nation on the subject, Turner County
beats the world in the ease with which
water can be obtained by means of
artesian wells. In and about Yankton
there are ten wells varying from 45O to
$50 feet in depth, and Yankton people
have considered themselves fortunate
in this respect"
And Turner county also claims to be
"clear ahead" in the quantity and
quality of its native grasses. A promi-
neDt cattle raiser, whose experience ex-
tends throughout the states and ter
ritories of the west, recently stated
that he had "never seen tract of coun-
try Of equal size that would produce
the amount of nutritious grass to be
found in Turner county" With its
pure water and fine grass this is indeed
a favored section Of wonderland y
There is yet room for the profitable
investment of thousands Of dollars in
this business, and when Turner county
contains sufficient stock to convert its
grasses into flesh and muscle it will be
one of the weaIthiest counties in the
west.

Ths school nouda Carrx.

AT the election held in Hurley school
township on Tuesday to vote on the
proposition to issue 5000 in bonds to
erect and furnish a school building in
Hurley, 102 votes were cast, 60 for, and
IL against the proposition. The school
board will now take immediate steps
to secure plans and specifications for
the building, and work will be pushed
rapidly so as to have the house ready
for the fall term.
The almost unanimous action of the
voters speaks well for the intelligence
of the citizens of the township, and they
can soon point with pride to the best
school building IN Turner county.
The site selected is about 500 feet
southwest of Court House Square, in
block 80, and commands a fine view of
the surrounding country.

says "there is no probability that the
