Last Dakota Crop Bulletin.

The following extract from bulletin
No. %, which is the last that viii be
issued this season, gives croT con-
ditions in South Dakota up to date
as follows:
The past week has been exceed
ingly dry, only two counties reporting
rainfall, the amount in each being
very light. Hot winds have pre-
vailed, under whose influence pastures
have become rather scanty- Thresh-
ing is progressing slowly, present
indications being that it will be
continued into late the fall months.
Wheat is reported as yielding on an
average of u to IS bushels per acre.
The favorable weather conditions OF
the past two weeks throughout every
section OF the state, have securely
sealed the condition Of the corn crop.
In the central and western portions
Of the state there has not been an
instance of a killing frost this season.
In the eastern and southeastern
portions, where Orn was the farthest
advanced, a killing frost occurred,
but at that time most OF the corn
was in a condition to be little harmed
by its effect.
Reports relative to the crops OF
millet and fax continue ~flattering.
A great abundance of hay has been
cut and put in stack. Rain is now
needed badly to place the soil in a
good condition for fall blowing.

Trees Which Bear but Once.

The sago palm tree bears but one
crop Of fruit. Its load of nuts is its
first and final effort in the way of fruit
bearing. The nuts become ripe aud

itself, empty and bare. The branches
turn brown and drop one by one to the
ground. Inside the trunk the work
Of decay is going on until what at
one time was a mass of white sago
and pith becomes nothing but a col
lection of rotten brown tibers. One
day the trade wind blows more strong
ly than usual and the l~eaiess column
OF the trunk falls with a crash, de-
stroying in its fall many of the young
palms that are already s%pringinG from
the nuts scattered some months be-
fore. The taliput or Palmyra palm. a
native of Ceylon, IS another tree which
flowers and bears fruit but once.
When about eighty years old. which IS

A Serious Famine Riot Occurs
In the City OF Moreiia,
Mexico.
Spectators Extort ExorbItant
Prices for CoEn.---Penni-
less and Starving.

Homer Finlay. formerly a well
known citizen Of san Antonio, but
who for the past six years has been in
the mercantile business in tue cts of
Morelia, Mexico, has returned and
gives a vivid account OF the famine
riot which occurred in that city last
sunday.
He stated that it was n of the
most exciting and piuiable scenes
ever witnessed in that part Of the
republic, and that another serious
outbreak IS Threatened at any time.
When the famine was threatened,
several months ago" said Mr.. FiuIay,
several Of The wealthy merchants Of
NJ eli cont ac,ed fUrlargequauti i
o coin, the shipments amounting to
1900 bushels, which is enough to
have supplied the suffering people.
These Spectators, however, put up
the prices, and in 4 short time
extOrted what little money the poor
people had. For the past two months
the suffering among the poor people
has been intense and many deaths
from starvation have occurred. The
streets became
THR)SGED WIFE BEGGARs,

children Il ade heartrending appeals
for help. IuIs was kept up until
last Sunday night, when the 5 carving
poor UrganIzed a MOB, and, driven to
desperation, began a concerted attack
upon the food stores Of the city.
There were fully 5000 people in the
mob, and the police were utterly
~pOwerless 10 stop its progress. One
feed store after another was entered,
and as but little corn was found, tie
frenzy Of the mob increased. Two
regiments of federal cavalry and ole
OF Infantry, stationed at A.OrelIa,
were called out to quell the riot, but
their ppearance only added to the
desperation Of the starving people.
The soldiers opened fire upon the
people, and one man was killed and
several wounded. Acting on
Command Of its leader, the mob
started for the granaries Of Joseph
Martinez, in which 5000 bushels Of
corn were stored. They broke down
the doors and supplied themselves
with all each could carry away. AS
their temporary wants had been
supplied, the mob quietly
dispersed"
