st. Paul Dispatch, 4: The outcome Of
the Clow-Sampson billiard match will be
delayed for some days, and possibly
weeks. The last game should have been
played last night, but Glow was sum-
moned to Chicago, and Sampson, in
stead Of claiming the forfeit, agreed to
call the match off, and play over again
some future time. All bets were declar-
ed off, and on CLOVIS return the men
will begin the series over again. Glow
appeared to have a cinch on the series,
and had he played last night Sampson
would have been compelled t 0 get 3CO
points tt his 200.
The Dakota Farmer of September /,
publishes a full statistical report from a
large number of counties in the state,
some Of which are given in bushels and
some in percentages. While it thinks
some estimates may be too high, yet on
the whole it gives the reports credit for
being valuable. An ordinary crop is in
dicated by 100 per cent. Here is the re-
port Of Lake county, which appears to
be about an average OF the lot, furnished
the Farmer by DR.. J. II. Jones:

we have ever had this far, but too early
to give close estimate. Flax spotted,
