Weather and Crop Report.
Des Moines. Iowa, June IL, 1900

Des Moines. Iowa, June III, 800
The past week was warm and dry,
closing with heavy showers Saturday
night and early Sunday morning, bring
ing an abundant supply Of moisture to
nearly all parts of the northern and CEN
trail sections of the state. Following are
some of the larger amounts reported:
Charles City, $40 inches; Clear Lake,
400; Britt, 2.S4; Waterloo, 1.7G; Cedar
Rapids, $50; Forest City, 200; Nevada,
207; Marshalltown, 1.97; Hampton, 2.O5.
A severe wind squall developed during
Saturday night, with much display OF
Tightening, causing much damage to
trees, windmills and light frame out
buildings. Reports indicate that many
apples, plums and cherries were blown
from the trees in exposed localities. The
copous rainfall was timely, and an in
calculable amount will be gained in
sections where the lack OF moisture was
threatening serious injury to crops.
Corn is doing remarkably well in all
districts, being more than usually well
advanced in size for the end OF the first
decade in June, and the conditions have
been favorable for thorough cultivation.
A large area Of early planted corn has
been cultivated the second time.
The hay crop has been materially cut
short in the northern and central sec
tons, and the present indications are
that for the state at large it will fall
considerably below the average.
This dry weather was favorable for oats
and other grain that had become some
what rank in growth. Some lodging has
probably resulted from the heavy wind
storm of the 10th. Apples, cherries and
plums have suffered to some extent in al
sections. Potatoes and garden truck
are thriving.

We suppose the managers OF our
schools desire the graduating exercises
written up in the local papers, but at
the graduating Thursday night they
failed as far as they could to give the
newspapers an opportunity to report the
proceedings. We might think this was
an oversight il we had not talked with
one of the managers abont the matter
the day before. They have evidently
regarded it as unnecessary to provide a
chance for reporter, relying on the
we'll known ability of the reporter to get
there and make his report. But when
it is to the interest of the persons con-
Quoting the meeting as well as of the
newspapers to have full report, we
think good opportunities should he
given the reporters. The representative
of this paper paid his way in and was
shown to the rear of the lecture room
by the ushers and had to sit there where
he could not hear word the professor
said aud not half what the speakers
said, or go out. He was there thirty
minuts before the exercises began which
he not being man of leisure, was as
early as he could well go, or he might
possibly have got little better seat
We think this paper has always shown
a willingness TO help in every way il
| could every cause the schools here have
been interested in. 1t has upheld The
hands of the teachers and Of the board
in every possible way. 1t has given o.
its space freely to commend their WORK
and to encourage it. We think that
these things together with the fact that
those participating and the public gen
| orally desired full account, ought tc
have induced the management to give
us an opp ortunty to make the report.

Attached to the Bakery.

A plausible tale of a man whoibought
leaf of bread and took away more
property than he paid for Is told by the
Pawtucket correspondent of the Prov
idence Telegram. The man was in a
hurry to catch II car.
His impatience made the clerk nerv-
GUS. She forgot to snap the string
which bound the paper about the loaf,
and away sped the man with the loaf,
while the string reeled Off behind him.
He caught the car all right, and, al
though the conductor and some of the
passengers noticed as he sat down
close to the door that the Irvine paid
itself out as the ear rolled along, the
man did not discover the tangle until
he alighted. In the meantime the con-
ductor was having n good time. AS
passengers stepped on the platform he
cautioned them not to walk on that
string, and they did not.
1t might have looked mysterious to
the people who saw the string moving
along the street, for the unraveling
continued until the bakery Irvine bob
bin had been nearly emptied by the
connected loaf mile away. The man
with the bread felt tug at his loaf as
he stepped down from the car. Then
he followed up the cord, winding as he
went.
He was one Of those strictly honest
men who want nothing that does not
belong to them, and the best part of
the story is that he followed the string
due time entered the bakery and re-
stored the ball of Irvine.
