THE HOTTEST EVER.
The Thermometer Last Sunday
Broke All Records

The hot weather of the first of this
week has been unprecedented in the
seventeen years during which Mr.. D.
T. Wheaton has taken the weather
record for the Weather Bureau. On
Saturday, the mercury reached 100
degrees, degree of heat that had
been reached only twice before
once six years ago and once last year.
But this phenomenal temperature
was destined to be surpassed, and on
Sunday the mercury reached lO2
degrees in the shade.
In spite of this high temperature,
it is doubted if any damage was done
to the crops on Saturday and Sun
day, which they had not suffered in
the preceding hot weather. The
grain on the light soils was already
rlpening, while several farmers re-
port that the later sown wheat does
not appear to have been injured.
It is noticeable that harvest has
been FASTENED considerably by the hot
weather and will be in full blast the
the first of next week.

Editor Glssier Sells Out.

@. J, Glasier on Saturday of last
week sold his newspaper property
here, The Morris Times, to Messrs.
Allen and Noyes, of Hiawatha, Kan
sas, who took control on Thursday of
this week.
Mr.. Glasier has during the year of
his editorship OF the Times made
that paper one of the leading Demo
cratic papers of this section of the
state, and it is to be regretted that
personal matters compel his removal
to some less severe climate He will
take with him, however, the best
wishes of many friends here.
Mr.. Allem, the new editor, comes
highly recommended from his former
home ip Kansas, and we bid him well
come to the community and to the
newspaper fraternity. The Times
will continue Democratic in politics.

r1oney In Texas Oil.

We cali attention to the announce
ment in this paper of the Texas
Standard Oil Company. This is an
uncommon speculative enterprise in
which the chances for success are so
good that ore wonders why they do
not cost more.
The Texas Standard Oil Company
is oficered and managed by St. Paul
business men whose names are a
guarantee not onl y of honesty and
fairness to stockholders, but of good
management, business ability. This
a distinctive Minnesota company and
and the site where it is now digging
we'll (it owns over a thousand acres
in alD is only few hundred yards
in three directions from three of the
big oil gushers of the Texas oil
fields. There are IA of these
gushers now giving forth their thous-
ands of barrels Of oil every uay; and
so sure are the drillers and oil land
owners in Spindle Top Heights that
oil will flow, that they absolutely
guarantee an oil gusher of large flow
cor no pay"
Under such circumstances shares
in Minnesota company at Is cents
(par value $1) seem like buying gold
dollars with quarters. The offer is
good enough to justify any man in
looking into it fully,

1T WAS TOO HOT.
Wheat Ripening Too Rapidly In
Many Localities.

The climate and crop bulletin for
the week ending July Is, 1901, says:
The week has been dry one, the
largest amount of rain being .O5 OF
an inch at Crookston. The tempera'
lures were high in the southern half
of the state on the 9th and 18th, and
very high in all parts OF the state on
the 18th and 18th, with temperatures
ranging from 1000 to 1860 on the
last named dates. These excessive
tenn peratures are causing much
anxiety regarding wheat and uncut
barley ard oats. In the southwestern
COUNTIES considerable damage to
wheat is reported, and in other parts
of the South it is said that it is ripen-
ing too rapidly. In the northern
half of the state all the small grains
are doing we'll on the unfooded lead
and on the flooded fields there is
some improvement now that the
water has receded. From Sherbunre
county southwark chinch bugs haYe
caused considerable injury to wheat,
and now that the rye is cut aud
other small Grains are getting hard,
they are going into the corn. Good
crops of rye and winter wheat are
about secured, and a fair to good
barley crop is being cut. Oats are
ripening, and some are being har-
vested. Spring wheat is ripening,
and it is expected that its cutting
will begin from the 18th to the 18th.
Haying is we'll advanced; small
crop is saved in southeastern coun-
ties, and a much better one farther
west and north. Corn has grown
very rapidly; the dry weather has
allowed cultivation, and some fields
are clean, but many are still grassy.
There Is a general improvement in
fax.
