better crop will probably be secured than
has been harvested in this county during
tho twoepast seasons. @
Much More Grain Than ast Year.
Harvest is in full blast in La Nours
county. The growth Of straw in most
wheat fields IL very heavy for
twenty bushels to the acre. Over 100 har-
vesters have been sold At La Mours and
Edgely. There will be much more grain
than last year. The quality cannot be-
given until another week. BY which time
several thrashiog outfits will bs at work.
Some wheat will be No. hard, but some
is known to be Of lesser grade due to the
hot winds. Flax will DO better than FOR
years.
Damagetl Most ON Sandy Soil.
Since the last report wheat has ripened
very fast in Pcrbina county, and the
damage from blight is moro conspicuous.
In the western part OF the county where
the land 10 sandy tho damage 10 20 per
cent. Thsre Was some dAmA9s ffeM haal
tho past week in Beaulisu aud AkrA town
ships. In the northern part Of the county
the damage from blight is mot 90 general,
but enough to affect nearly all the wheat 4
little. Harvest is in full blast, and with
ten days good harvest weather the wheat
WILL all be in the shock.
Below Full Yield.
A fine rain at Bismarck has greatly i'm
proved the prospect for corn crop, as we'll
as helped the late vegetables. Harvesting
is progressing rapidly. But very little
thrashipg has been done. The crop Of this
county is several times better than last
year, though much below full yield.
Wheat will not average over fifteen bushels
per acre.
The Damage Ovorsstimated.
Harvest in Beadie county is now in full
blast. Wheat does not seem to have been
damaged by heat go badly as was at first
supposed. Fields supposed to be dead
are filing out in good shape. The barley
and fax crops are good. A recent rain
will help the late sown grain. Cool
weather Of late has aided tho crops con.
siderably.
Complaining About Grades.
In many places in Pembina county about
one-half the wheat crop Is cut. The
farmers are complaining somewhat about
the grade, saying that the great heat has
caused the grain not to fill properly. Sc
far the estimated yield will be from fifteen
to twenty five bushels per acre. The
weather is very favorable for harvesting
being cool and dry.

WOMEN WHO DRINK.
Terrible Effects of the Habit Upon Their
Lives.

OF all the blistering sights on earth,
the worst is a drunken woman. Now
and then you can see one in a certain
part of the town, but these are cursed
with depravity that shows even
palmer than does their inebriety. The
fatal thing about an intoxicated woman
is that whenever you see one you re-
member her. 1t is sight that does
not readily fade from the mind. 1t is
so out of all lines of propriety, of de-
cency, of humanity that it appalls with
its very outrageousness. No mater
what man may claim are his views on
the subject of woman he always proves
his faith in her superior truth and
purity by standing aghast at the sight
Of her maudlin condition. 1t proves
how high is his ideal when he can look
at this state in woman with feelings
no more akin to those in the case of a
man than atheism is like religion. 1t
is because he holds her higher. respects
her more, gives her instinctively full
measure of honor, that he feels shocked
and outraged when she sinks SO far as
to pol.ute that purity.

FITNESS FOR PLACE.

This Must he Considered In Selecting
Women for Positions, Political or other
wise. .
Whenever woman is nominated for
Office or appointed to position there Is
always a good deal of iH-considered re-
joicing among certain class These
are the injudicious and intolerant sup
porters of so-called "woman's rights"
They mistakenly suppose that every
such nomination or appointment is an
acknowledgment of equality, a guaran-
tee of fitness
1t is a matter Of congratulation that,
up to this time, the selections have been
made with wisdom and delberatlon, and
women ofiiceholders, as rule, have
been a credit to themselves and their
sex. They have no political influence,
as such, and have been chosen upon
their personal merits alone. 1t may be
due to this cause that their services
have been exceptionally satisfactory.
Few or no charges Of incompetency or
dishonesty have ever been brought
against them; from country post
mistress to United States Pension Com
missioner they have preserved a clean
record and shown clean balance-sheet
