Thursday and Friday Of last week
were very trying days for corn in this
valley. The intense heat and hot
winds Of those two days injured the
corn in a few places, especially on
gravel soil.
There was still some moisture in the
ground from the rain on the 10Th, so
that corn did not suffer to the extent
that it did in localities which were
missed by the rain of the 10Th.
On Saturday it was partly cloudy
and the heat was not so great, and on
Sunday afternoon we got another SPLEEN
did rain for which we are thankful.
This rain allays all apprehension for
the corn crop at present and puts the
ground in proper condition for sowing
turnip seed.
GrasshopperS are very numerous in
these parts and there is some reason to
fear they will devour the young turnip
plants as soon as they appear above
the ground.

We add the names of Jerry Simp-
son and Judge Mckay to our list of
nominees this week, both having been
renominated since our last issue. Jer-
ry Simpson has served the people of
the Seventh district faithfully and we'll
for the past four years and by his rec
ognized ability has won the admiration
even OF his political enemies. Judge
Mckay has served the people of Harp
er and Barber counties as the Judge of
the oath district for four years and his
friends have determined that he shall
serve them for four years more. Judge
Mckay IS to-day recognized as one of
the falrest men on the bench in the
state OF Kansas. and has by his fair
and impartial conduct on the bench
made friends in both counties and in
all parties, and it is not predicting too
much to say that he will be returned
by larger majority than four years
ago.-Anthony Bulletin.

ANENr the premium fad to in
duce people to subscribe for news
papers, the Penny Press has this
to say: ''The time has come when
the publishers of newspapers
should make a radical change in
their methods of obtaining patron
age in the line of subscribers to
the papers which they issue. Like
everything else the premium busl-
ness was a taking affair, in it's earlier
day, but competition has rendered
it a burden and a nuisance.
x The rule is
that whenever one is hired to reaC
publication, he will quit it sc
soon as the time expires for which
he received a premium to become
a patron thereof"
