The Lake Benton News says that

for Lincoln county last Saturday,
Springfield Advance: A rally of the
Y. P. S. G. E. is planned for Aug. LIST,
to be held in the Congregational
church. 1t is expected to have three
meetings and to have representatives

managed by O. W. Mcmillan has pass
ed into the hands of the Parsons Ele-

in Lamberton and John Erion, farm
or residing near there we're both arrest
ed one day last week on the charge of

car consigned to the Shutdown and
Willow Lake creamery The two

The last weekly crop bulletin says
that spring wheat is promising on
high lands, heading finely, but on low
lands, it, with other crops, is suffering,
and in many places submerged.
There is not as much lodging in
spring wheat and oats as was feared,
and the rust is principally on the low
er leaves only. A good rye crop is
about ready to cut. Corn, is making
very rapid growth where wet soil has
not prevented cultivation. The hay
crop is light and it will be late before
the wet meadows can be cut.
The farm of j. W. Marvin of John
sonville gives evidence of the fact that
fruit is raised in Redwood county. Mr..
Marvin has an acre or more of ground
devoted to plums, apples, raspberries,
gooseberries, currants, dew berries, etc.
and despite the June frosts of this
year, all of the trees and bushes have
produced excellent crops this year.
In the fruit line, as we'll as in all kinds
of grain the Marvin farm makes a
showing that is among the best in
this county, and we have no doubt in
the State. Mr. and Mrs. Marvin we're
among the first settlers in Johnson
vile, and are now commencing to
reap some of the fruits of those days
when hard working was essential to
living on this frontier country.
Squire B. Holden of Lanberton
died at his home in Lamberton at
four o'clock last Saturday morning.
His death was caused by heart failure
and paralysis, brought on by eating
an excess of ice cream about two
weeks before his death. His last
hours we're pathetic in the extreme.
He knew that his demise was near at
hand and his parting words to brother
Odd Fellows were Christian and svm-
pathetic: He was 20 years of age aad
left two children. He was member
of the Manchester, England, Unity,
from which Odd Fellowship received
it's start, q member of the Lamberton
Lodge of Odd Fellows, which order
conducted his burial exercises from
the Congregational church, Lamber-
ton, Sunday afternoon, an immense
crowd attending the final ceremonies.
