The strawberry raisers in the
vicinity Of Fort Smith have not
done well this year. First, the crop
was delayed in ripening for eight
or ten days on accountof the rains
and cold weather. This threw
most of the berries from that Sec

of time. Second. the heavy rains
had the effect to injure the quality
of the fruit, made it watery and
tasteless.

In discussing the crop conditions
the Globe Democrat says that
wheatcounts for less in the nation
al wealth than corn, but still it is
crop which has great influence
on the business conditions of the
country. The feeling in this Sec
tion is that the attempt to raise
wheat has been failure-that
taking all the fields and all years
together, it has. cost more than it
has come to. Another thing
against wheat is that its influence
is not felt but very short time,
while the proceeds Of corn crop
are coming in for q year, practi-
cally.

dinner and supper and a jolly time.
Inc presentation of medals is also a
grand idea: in future years they will
be highly priced as smementos of the
war; but could anything be more ridi-
culous than the plan to carry cords and
cords of wood and other fuel UP to the
top of big butte just TO make a huge
blaze? 1t isn't right and what good
will it do the soldiers? Only the other
day a wood dealer was telling me
about poor woman asking for credit
for cord of wood until her son, who
was with the army at Manila. should
arrive in San Francisco. How much
better to reserve the wood intended for
the big bonfire and distribute it among
the families of the soldiers when win
ter sets in! Then, too. / read in the
paper that the business men We're not
coming forward with as liberal contri-
buttons as expected. If there is any
one class of men in Butte that l pity
more than another it is the business
men. With the endless calls for con-
tributions, rattle tickets etc, ] should
think they would close their doors and
go fishing. The business men of Butte
are always to the front in every good
cause, and in this they are loyal and
patriotic; but they know that after all
is over and the grand triumphal arch
is torn down and only dead and black
ened ashes to show that once a BAN
quet was held there will be 700 or more
men seeking employment-some per-
haps unable to toil-and they know on
whom demands will then be made for
succor. The kind of welcome that will
be lasting and put the men in the way
of self maintenance will be a much
nobler welcome than a huge display
which will necessitate an unnecessary
expenditure of labor and money. You
know Mrs. z, don't you? Well, she

What with the difference of time and

are often a source of discomfort rather

OF three breadths of chintz Joined to-

Thus there are two bags instead of
