A PARTY composed of Fred H. Meyer,

from q trip to the northwestern por-

vein can be accurately determined.
During the trip the party visited that
portion of the coded Sioux land which
lies northeast of the Black Hills, and
some valuable information concerning
that almost unknown section of the
state is given by them. They report
that while the grass in almost every
other portion OF the state is dry and
yellow that in the section visited is as
green as in the spring. That portion
of the coded lands is filled up with cat
tie and horse ranches, and the cattle
and horses are ia the best possible con-
dition, as the natural result of the ex-
cellent grazing which they ENJOY.

THE following is the crop bulletin
issued by the Government Weather
Bureau in Huron, showing crop condi-
tions in South Dakota for the week
ending Aug. Is:
The temperature during the week
was a little below, the amount of sun
shine q little above, and the rainfall
below the average. Showers are re-
ported from most counties and have
been beneficial to late wheat. oats.
flax, corn, potatoes and grass, but moro
rain is needed in most localities. espec-
tally for corn, which is not filling well.
The weather has been favorable for
wheat and oats harvesting which is
about completed Over the south half of
the state, and we'll advanced elsewhere:
and fairly favorable for stacking and
threshing. High winds have shelled
some over-ripe standing grain. Tho
wheat berry is proving of much better
quality than was anticipated.
Light frost occurred in some locali-
ties on Friday, the 18th inst, but no
damage is reported except to very deli
cate vines. Some flax has been cut
but this work is not general. A little
fall blowing is reported from the Black
Hills region.
General rain would be very benefc-
ial to all late crops, and would not ma
terially interfere with harvest work.

HOUSTON special: There is no dis
guising the fact that a crisis does exist
in Texas in regard to the moving of
the cotton crop. None of the banks
will advance money to move the staple
and in Ceuro and other places buyers
are paying half cash and giving notes
for sixty days for the remainder. The
Victoria banks decline to advance more
money. saying farmers instead of pay
ing debts take the money home, and
that hereafter the farmers and not the
banks will carry the cotton. The
Houston banks. while making no loans
or advances, have plenty of money to
pay. all demands in currency or gold
without premium. and do not need to
resort to the clearing house or certified
check systems in vogue in other cities.
Interior banks cannot get money to adj
vance and are in a dilemma as to what
to do in two OF three weeks from now
when the crop begins to move more
freely. The situation is more dcsper-
ate than admitted, SO far us the move
ment of the cotton crop is concerned.
GALVESTON, Tex, special: Brad
streets alarming statement about the
difficulty in the cotton crop situation
is considered here to be without real
foundation. Galveston bankers repeat
edly within the last two weeks have
expressed the utmost confidence in the
situation. The $50, 900, 900 which
Bradstreet's says is necessary to gather
the crop will be needed in small In
stalllnents yer q period of three or
four months and will be supplied by
local merchants in part. At worst the
total amount is greatly exaggerated
because a large part of the cotton will
be picked by farmers families and the
ginning nearly or quite all done for,
seed or lint toll. SO no money for that
is actually needed. .
BRISTOL, Tenn, special: News has
