mustard is abundant, and farmers,
where it is the heaviest, do not seem
to care about the growth of the OBJ
noxious weed. Corn is looking we'll,
wherever it has pushed itself out of
the ground, and a large crop is antici-
pated. Flax is also comingon nicely,
and seems to have been sown in larg-
or quantities this year than last.
The w. C. T. U. convention opens
next Tuesday afternoon at two o'clock,
at the Presbyterian church. Every
one is welcome to all sessions. No one
can afford to miss the w. G. T. U.
symposium ON Tuesday evening. Miss
Holbrook's address on Wednesday ev-
ening is sure to be a success. Miss
Holbrook is pleasing speaker and
full of enthusiasm in her work. The
contest on Thursday evening cannot
fail to draw full house, as the con-
testants are among the very best
speakers in the city, 10y Pugh, jamie
Beecher, Robt. Stewart, John Stewart,
Grace Root, Daisy Clayson, Agnes
Hitchcock, May Ferris and Lena Win
tiers. The keynote of the entire con-
vention will be found in the Wednes-
day evening prayer and conservation
service. 1t is hoped that the churches
and young peoples societies will join
heartily in this service.
The weekly weather crop bulletin
for the week ending June 5th, says
that a warm, dry, sunshiny week is re-
ported everywhere throughout the state
The lack of rain has hardened the
top soil, and caused retardation in
the sprouting of late sown crops, while
the abundance of sunshine has oper-
ated to force rapid growth in the
vegetation that had made it's appear
ance above the ground before the
drouth conditions began to be felt.
General rains would be exceedingly
beneficial at this time although no
serious harm has as yet taken place
in consequence of a deficiency in
moisture. ;: Wheat is *stooling fairly
we'll and is reported as making good
advancement, except in Mcleod coun-.
ty, where the damage from frost and
lack of rain has been especially severe.
In many places in this county the
early sown wheat has been ploughed
up and fax substituted. Chinch bugs
are doing cons iderable injury in Win
ona county. Corn cultivation has be-
gun and in another week this work
will be general. The absence of high
winds has been exceedingly beneficial
on account of the dryness.and it may
be said that the season has so far pro-
crossed very prosperously and without
any wide spread impairment of crop
conditions. ~

And dear mothers pun pkin pie

Turns again to husking bees,
When the girls are all a-futter
And the boys for kisses tease;
While the pumpkins nudge each other
In kind OF social way,
AS they nestle in the fodder
Or get trampled in the hay.

And of days that are to be,

But friends whose hearts will mourn,
