the daily excess ranging from Is to z
degrees. And it was rainless, except
light showers in portions Of the north

The conditions have been favorable

The dry and hot weather has been
very beneficial to corn in the larger

sections recently visited by excessive
rainfall. In q few localities late
planted corn on thin soil needs more
rain very soon to develop the ears.
The early planted corn is nearing
the full roasting ear stage, and much
of it is beyond danger of serious in

A NEW CHURCH.
Out come of "A quarrel In 1.-THE member
ship at Roland

Roland Aug. s-The organization
of the first English church ever
formed in Roland was perfected
here Sunday. The organization was
largely due to the labors of Rev A. B.
Shrader of the Memorial Lutheran
church of Nevada and J. Evert Hum
man, student of Wittenberg Semi
nary, who has been supplying the
formers pulpit this summer, and
was the ultimate outcome of the
stand the Norwegian Lutheran
churches of this place took against
fraternal societies. A number of
lodge members were dropped from
membership in the old churches, and
these, with their families and SYM
pathizing friends compose the new
English Evangelical church. Thirty
members accepted the hand of
Christian fellowship Sunday and half
as many more have signified their
intention of doing so. The board of
church extension Ihas assured the
congregation of 81 900 to assist in
erecting new church edifice.
