THE SOUTH DAKOTA CROPS.
The Report of the weather bureau for
One Week.

The Report of the Weather bureau for
One Week.
THE condition of crops in South Da-
kota for the week ending July 70 is
summarized as follows by the United
States Weather Bureau at Huron:
With the exception of n day. the
week was Of almost uninterrupted
sunshine and high temperature. The
rains were in the form of local showers
confined mostly to the portion of the
state lying east of the Missouri River,
and occurred, as u rule. ut night. The
combined sunshine and high tempera-
ture was beneficial to corn over nearly
all Of tho state, also to small grain.
where rain fell; elsewhere, however,
small grain. except the very early, was
not benefited, and in some localities
suffered damage. especially on shallow
titled soil.
The week was especially favorable
for haying and farmers have busted
themselves at this work to the exclu-
sion Of everything else. The crop will
be very large and of excellent quality.
Some hail fell the night of the 10Th
ovcr portions of Codington, Edmunds,
Deuel.. and sphinx Counties, but no spe-
cial damage is reported.
The night Of the 18th . heavy west
to northwest gale prevailed over that
portion Of the state lying east of the
Missouri River. attended b. rain, but,
contrary to expectations. the crops were
but little harmed thereby. From sew.
eral Identities some of the barley, rye,
and oats are reported "lodged." but to
no great ONtciit, and indications are that

1t will all straighten up. The corn has
already Strengthened.
The harvesting of rye and barley is
becoming general, some will be cut
this week, and the earliest wheat is
ripening.
On general average the week was
very favorable for all crops over the
portion of the state east of the Miss
souri, River, excepting a strip about
fifty to sixty miles wide nearest the
river, where rain is needed. Elsewhere
favorable conditions prevailed for corn
and early small grain. General rains
would be very beneficial. and some lo-
calittes will need them very badly

Tho Sea-Horse.

Only three or four inches in length.
the s%ea-horse is more digniied than
many large fishes, and, in addition to
the distinction conferred upon it by its
graceful stateliness, possesses the
unique power Of looking two ways at
once. 1t is a. dainty, pretty creature,
with head shaped much like a horse. In
color it is pale gray, dotted with tiny,
scarcely visible. spots Of blue, and small
silver spangles. The dorsal fins are
bordered and fringed with gold, and tho
strong little prehensile tail, wound
around some fixed object selected BY
the owner, supports him in an erect po-
sitton in the most wonderful manner.

EVEN the democratic journals, those
opponents of una dulterated free
trade, are asking If 1t was not better
that the Nc. Kinley bill bring manu-
factories to this country rather than
this country should be flooded with
cheap articles manufactured abroad
that would come in with free trade.
These queries are propounded In view
of the recent announcement that the
tin plate makers of Swansea, Wales,
owing to the depression in trade
caused by the operation of the Nc
Kinley bill, are coming to this coun.
try to erect their tin works here. All
things come to him who waits, and
even to the free-trader comes q con-
ception of the benefits of protection.

THE whole coast country is settling
up with small farmers. The large
landed proprietors. who five years
ago were unwilling under any cir
cumstances TO divide their holdings,
are not only ready but anxious to cut
up their fertile pastures into small
farms and invite the investments of
small capitalists and the industrious
man with the hoe. Already large
section near the guilt has been divided
into small farms, and the result has
been so gratifying that this is but the
beginning of very general movement
for small farms and market gardens
in that fruitful region.

THERE are those in Mexico who do
not take kindly to the continuance of
the presidential term of Porfirie
Diaz. They seem to think that his
continued administration Of the gov
eminent may operate to prevent a
change in the presidency of the re-.
public should the mass of the people
so desire. There is little danger of
this. President Diaz is the most en-
lighted ruler Mexico has ever had
and it would be no disadvantage to
that country should his term of office
be continued into the next century.
A score more years ofssuch admins
tration as President Diaz has given
Mexico during his present term would
bring her up to the present measure
of American civilization.
