Let it be recorded and remembered
that here in western Minnesota IN
As degrees north latitude, ripe wheat,
oats and barley were harvested from
our fields, and ripe potatoes, cucum-
bers and tomatoes plucked from the
gardens, on and before the middle of
July, 1856. Also that sweet corn too
hard for use, was also reported ut that
date. What other section in this
latitude can beat it?-Montevideo
Leader.
The weather service signals are now
to pe seen upon the Manitoba right-of-
way each day after o'clock. The
meaning of each of the signals is as
follows: The red sphere indicates
higher temperature; the red crescent,
lower temperature; the red star,
stationery. temperature; the blue
sphere, general rain or snow; the
blue crescent, clear or fair Weatheri the
blue star, local rain or snow and the
black square, cold wave. Paste this
in your hat for reference.
We want to get to the very front
of this fire question and so we begin
to warn the farmers now, to take
every precaution against prairie fires
getting to their stacks and buildings.
It was demonstrated last year that
single furrow or half dozen OF them
were not sufficient protection in time
of high wind, and the same will be
doubly true this dry season. The
better way would be to burn wide
strip all around your stacks and
premises 80 that no fire could reach
them even in q gale of Wind.-Mon-
tevideo Leader.
Mrs. Clara H, Smith the Illinois
Chalk -Talker, and state lecturer for
the w. G.. T. U. of her native state, is
spending few months in this part of
Minnesota. She is officially recog-
nized by the w. C. Il. U. of Mime
sofa, and was invited by Rev.
McClary to speak at the Otter Tail
Camp meeting. She SO pleased the
people that the preachers present,
together with Elder McClary, ar
ranged for her a programme of apz
pointments embracing large portion
of this district. She is to be in Nor
ris Aug. 7th, and 9Th. This will af-
ford an opportunity for a good rally
in the w. G. T. U. of this place.
A few farmers seem to think that
machines, necessarily left out of
doors or under sheds by the machine
dealers In Morris, are public plunder
and have been helping themselves to
them for extras. The losses for the
business men of Morris caused in this
way this summer are quite large in
the aggregate. Last week Fred Halbe
helped himself to reel from a har-
vester belonging to John House.
Halbe was arrested, made to return
the reel and was fined 800 90 and costs.
With this example before them, it is
thought those who have been in the
habit of Hborrowing' extras will con-
cIude that it is better to huy.
