there been so clever a society satire as
Henry Fuller's @Pilgrim Sons which
is published in the August Cosmopol-
itan The problems involved ia woman's
use of the bicycle are so startling and
SO numerous, under the rapid evolution
of this art, that one welcomes a careful
discussion of the subject by so trained
a mind and so clever a writer as Mrs.
Reginald de KoYen. The Cosmopolitan
illustrates Mrs. de Kovenis article with
a series of poses by professional models.
A new sport, more thrilling than any
known to Nimrod, more dangerous
than was ever experienced by even a
Buffalo Bill, is exploited in the same
issue in an article on aPhotographing

Advertise sherman County.

All eyes are now being turned on
Sherman county, owing to the good
crops Of this season and remarkable
progress irrigation has made toward
the ultimate goal of redeeming the arid
regions. By judicious advertising a
good many people could be brought
here this fall and shown the advantages
to be gained by securing farms while
the values are yet at bedrock. These
lands that are now selling for a song,
lack nothing but an irrigation plant
to make them worth 800 an acre.
An increased population is what
Sherman county needs to develop its
magnificent resources, and that can be
secured if the initiative is taken. There
is no land more productive than that
Of Sherman comfy under irrigation
and just as soon as that fact can be i'm
pressed upon the minds of home-seek-
ers the tide of immigration, that is now
flowing into the desert lands of Utah
and Arizona, will turn toward them
and give this county the densest pOpu-
lati0n Of any agricultural section on
earth. There never was a better time
to advertise the county than now.

Fosters Forecasts.

My last bulletin gave forecasts of the
storm wave to cross the continent from
Aug. 4 to 8, and the next will reach the
Pacific coast about Aug. 8, cross the
west Of Rockies country by close of
10th, the great central valleys from 18th
to 18th and eastern states about 14th
Average rainfall may be expected
from this disturbance principally along
the central ATTITUDES of the United
States
Warm wave will cross the west Of
Rockies country about Aug, 8, great
central valleys 18th and eastern states
18th, Cool wave will cross the west of
Rockies country about 18th, great cen
tralvalleys 14th and eastern states 10th.
August is the most difficult month
of the year for which to forecast the
severe storms. 1t is one Of the tropical
storm months and as we are not yet
able to definitely forecast these trOpi-
cal storms and as they always break up
the regular weather conditions on the
continent the dates of dangerous
storms becomes uncertain.
Indications, however, are that within
a few days of Aug. 6 and 10, the most
severe storms of August will occur on
the continent and the tropical hurri-
canes will be of greatest force on our
Atlantic coast within few days of the
10Th. Near Aug 6 will also be a favor
able date for severe tropical storms.
expect the greatest tropical hurri-
canes of the year to occur within few
days of Sept Is. Mark the date and
watch the reports. I cannot give the
location except that its force will be
felt along the southern coast of the
United States.

The gamma or buffalo grass is large
enough this season to cut for hay.
There is thousands of acres of this
grass in Sherman county that will yield
from one-quarter to one-half a ton per
acre, and a good many farmers are
aYailing themselves of the opportunity
by cutting a few tons and others should
follow their example.
This hay is the most valuable grown,
fetching fancy prices from owners of
race stables who would rather pay $50
per ton for it than one-third the price
for the best timothy.

A REPUBLIC reporter visited the scene
Of the storm soon after it had ceased
and found that it had formed little
northwest Of the Ross place, and had
totally demolished a granery that had
stood there, also carrying the house
about $50 feet from its original resting
place, setting it down on new site but
doing no further damage. The cyclone
then passed in southessterly direc-
ticn through several fields of corn,
tearing up the grain and weeds and
scattering them in every direction and
finally died away near the Sappy just
south of the jim Wheeler place.
If the storm mad continued on in the
same course it would struck the town
about the center, and no doubt would
have done considerable damage to
property.
