IMMENSITY OF THE EXHIBITION.

A visitor to the Forepaugh entertain
ment leaves the vast enclosure at the close
of the performance In u daZed state of
mind, as the wonderful feats performed
follow each other so closely as to be con-
fusing to the senses, but the startling
scenes witnessed lnger in The memory
long after the tented field has passed to
other sections of the country. No exhibit
ton on earth affords the variety and eX-
cellence combined in this one aggregation,
which is the outcome of the study of more
than a quarter of century, and the out
lay Of millions of capital.

WHEAT AVERAGE

Mr. J. F. Greg farmer one mile north
of Clearwater, finished threshing his wheat
yesterday morning and was surprised even
himself at the yield. He had siXty-eight
acres which averaged forty-nine and three
fourths bushels per acre. He seemed TO
think he had no kick because it did not
average fifty, and he would have been sat
isfied had the average been forty bushels
per acre.
1t is said several fields in that vicinity
have averaged over forty bushels and the
wheat is averaging better than ever known
in that vicinity.
