why. for the past twenty-five years,

Crop Bulletin.

There were rains nearly every day of
the week. The rains came in very
heavy showers, and generally accom-
panied by lightning and thunder. In
MOBILES, Murray and Redwood coun-
ties there were tornado conditions on
the morning of the 18th, with violent
winds, covering small areas, and caus-
ing considerable loss to town and coun-
try buildings. In other parts of the
southern half of the state there was
hail at scattered points, which was
very large in size, but fortunately in
small amounts; but the only crop in
jury seems to have been in Big Stone
county, where many corn fields were
seriously injured. With seasonable
temperatures and abundant moisture,
all the small grains are doing splendid
ly; late sown fax and barley, and those
seeded on spring plowed land, are
coming up and growing nicely.

Boys Essay on the Hen.

A hen is an animal made by the
Creator of the universe, which is COW
cred with feathers, and has bill. The
hen stands on two feet, except when
she is tired, and then she stands on
one, and eats corn with her bill. When
the hen sits, she sits down to lay, and
when she lays down she lays down to
set. The hens eggs are good to eat
unless they have been set on.-Ameri-
can Fancier.

WHY MRS. PINKHAM
ID Able to Help Sick Women
When Doctors Fail

How gladly would men fly to wo-
mans aid did they but understand .
woman's feelings, trials, sensibilities,
and peculiar organic disturbances.
Those things are known only to
women, and the aid man would give
is not at his command.
To treat a case properly it is neces-
sary to know all about it, and full
information, many times, cannot be
given by a woman to her family ply.

Grasshoppers.

Prof. E. B. Forbes has temporarily
taken charge of the department of en-
tomology at the state college of agri-
culture at St. Anthony Park, and is
now at work in the Red River valley
exterminating grasshoppers, having
taken up the work where Prof. Lugger
left it at his death. According to a
letter received by Dean Liggett, of the
agricultural college, from Prof. Forbes
grasshoppers are infesting that part of
the state in large numbers. The work
of exterminating the pests with the
famous hopper dosers,' the method
used by Prof. Lugger, is being success
fully carried out and will lessen the
bad results this year. 1t is feared that
unless all fields are carefully and thor
oughly plowed this fall there will be
great destruction of crops in the north
west next year.

Corner Stone Laid.

The laying of the cornerstone of the
Norwegian seminary at St. Anthony
Park was the occasion for an outpour-

Cities. The delegates to the conven-
ton attended in force. When the
cornerstone was laid fully 1000 per-
sons were on the seminary ground.
Nearly all of the officers of the United
Church were seated on the platform
during the ceremonies, and the service
was in charge of Rev. T. Tjornhom,
