Yes, August Flower still has the
largest sale of any medicine in the
civilized world. Your mothers and
grandmothers' never thought OF, u.s.
ing any thing else for Indigestion or
Biliousness. Doctors we're scarce.
and they seldom heard OF Appendi-
citis, Nervous Prostration or Heart
failure, etc. They used August Flow
er to clean out the system and stop
fermentation OF undigested food, reg
ulate the action Of the liver, stimu-
late the nervous and organic action
OF the system, and that is all they
took when feeling dull and bad with

A LANDMARK GONE
The Craig Residence Burned Early
..s<@e, This Morning. ., 80

Warren has been happily free from
fires this summer, but this morning
about 2:30 o'clock the clang of the
fire bell aroused our citizens from
their slumbers and called THEM to
the scene of destruction. It proved
to be at the Craig residence in the
north part OF the city, occupied by
DC Craig. The firemen we're
promptly on the ground and in a.
short time had two streams of water
playing on the flames, but the fire
had gotten such headway, and the
building being frame, the efforts to
stop the destruction seemed for a
time futile, but the fire laddies kept
the record they have so long carried
and put a stop to the flames before
che house was entirely destroyed
The starting OF the fire is a mystery,
as the family were in bed and asleep
at the time OF it's breaking out and
the fires in the house had been out
for some hours. Mr.. Craig was
awakened by the suffocating smell of
smoke and opened his eyes to find
the room filled with smoke and
flames. He at once awoke the in
mates of the house and sent Perlev
Prosser to ring the fire bell. Those
left in the house, with the assistance
OF the neighbors and the crowd that
soon gathered, succeeded in saving a.
large portion of the furniture and
considerable clothing.
The building is one of the old land
marks ol this district, being one of
the first houses built in the county.
There was $4,000 insurance on
the hOnse and contents.

WEEKLY CROP BULLETIN

General C0ndstiOns.

The temperatures were moderate,
though on the 29th, Both and 3lst
they we're somewhat lower than on
other days of the week. Moderate to
light rains were pretty we'll distrib-
uted on the evening of the 28th, and
there we're very widely scattered
showers on the 25th, 26th and 29th.
On the 2Sth a heavy wind accompa-
nied the rain in Kittson county, with
damage to hay stacks and grain in
shocks. The rains revived pastures,
gardens, latecorn and late potatoes,
according to the amount which fell,
and in few places in the South the
soil was nicely softened for blowing,
but in general much more rain is
needed. Threshing has been going
on we'll during the week, except for
short delays where the showers were
heaviest. The small grain not in
tended to be threshed from the shock
is all stacked. In the extreme North
very little grain is still standing,
but this will be cut by Sept. 4th.
There is much late flax to be cut in
the Red River valley, and little as
far south as Traverse county. Early
corn is ready to be cut as far north as
Wilkin and Ottertail counties, and in
the south half of the state much is
already.in shock the late corn will be
safe from frost by Sept. 18th. Ina
few places in Wilkin, Ottertail, Lyon
and Murray counties the corn is said
to be very good, but generally good
deal of it will be used principally for
fodder. Potatoes are very poor in
most places. In Mobiles county win
ter rye is being seeded. The apple
crop is poor The estimated loss by
the severe hail storm in Minneapolis
on the evening of the 24th will aggre-
gate over $175, 900, while over path
extending northwestward from Min
neapolis for over 25 miles by half a
mile in width, the loss was very
heavy.
