| In the case of Fred. Everson VS..
Peter Mckay. the jury brought in a
verdict for the defendant holding
J no cause of action. J. H. Bowers
was the attorney for Mr.. Mckay.
It appears that last spring Mr.. Nc
Kay hired Everson to work for him
during the entire season, spring,
summer aud fall, and that he was to
receive 500 per month and board for
his work. At the end of a month
or two Mr.. Everson quit. Mr. Nc
Kay rendered him salary at the rate
of $17 per month, all that was being
paid for short time men at that
time. EversOn refused to accept,
insisting on having wages at the
rate of $22 per month, which Mr..
Mckay refused to pay. A suit fol-
lowed, and jury was out but a few
minutes when it brought in a ver-
dict in favor of the defendant The
verdict is an example to laborers,
ETC.. who hire out for certain per-
iod, and that where the employer
lives up to his contract the employ
ee must do likewise, or must not go
to court for relief.
! The climate and crop bulletin of
the weather bureau for the week
ending April 30, 1900, is as follows:
The nights have been cold, and the
day temperatures, moderate early in
| the week, rose TO from Is degrees to
50 degrees on the Goth, 9th and
18th There has been considera BILE
rainfall during the week in the
whole western half of the State, but
work was delayed by it only in the
extreme southwestern counties;
elsewhere the rain has oeen of great
value, especially in the north. In
the Red River valley. with no rain
fall since the spring work began,
there has been no delay in seeding,
though the surface soil became SC
dry that there was danger that the
late sown seed would not germinate
regularly, but the rains beginning
on the 26th will probably insure
|, a strong and even stand of all grain
; Early sown wheat, oats and barley
) are up in all parts of the State, anc
where the rains have been more
/ abundant, the stand is excellent
/ In the extreme southern counties
, an absence of rain during the week
| has enabled the farmers to finish
seeding and to catch up with work
