toes Poor.
The climate and crop bulletin oi
the weather bureau for the week
euding Sept. 2. says. The tempera.
lures were moderate, though on the
29th, 3Oth and 3lst they were some
what lower than on other days Of the
week. Moderate to light rains were
pretty we'll distributed on the even
ing. Of the 26th, and there were very
widely scattered showers on the 25th,
26th and 18th. On the 28th heavy
wind accompanied the rain in Kittson
county, with damage to hay stacks
and grain in shocks. The rains re-
vived pastures, gardens, late corn and
late potatoes, accordingt to the amount
which fell, and in a few places in the
south the soil was nicely softened for
.plowing, but in general much more
rain is, needed. Thrashing has been
going on we'll during the week, ex-
cept for. short delays where the
showers were heaviest The small,
grain not intended to be thrashed
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 fax to
be cut in the Red River valley, and q
little as far south as Traverse county.
Early corn is ready to be cut as far
north as Wilkin and Ottertail coun-
ties, and in the south half of the state
much is already in shock; the late
corn will be safe from frost by Sept.
10Th. In a few places in Wilkin,
Oltertail, Lyon and Murray counties
the corn is said to be very good, but
generally a good deal of it. will be
used principally for fodder. Potatoes
are very poor in most places. In
Mobiles county the winter rye is being
seeded. The apple crop is poor. The
estimated loss by severe hail storm
in Minneapolis on the evening of the
Oath will aggregate over $175 600
while over path extending north
westward from Minneapolis for over
25 miles by half mile in width, the
loss was very heavy,

Thus in wooden and worsted goods

increase OF 6S7 per cent in capital and an
increase OF 34l per cent in the quantity
OF woven fabrics produced, while the in
crease in the value OF these fabrics is only
20i per cent. the average value per square
yard having decreased from SO cents IN
1890 to SCI cents IN 1900. In cotton goods
there was an increase of 1883, $50 yards IN
the production OF plain cloths, sheetings,
shirtings twills and fancy woven fabrics.
and decrease OF Si.2s7.5S4 in their total
value. The average price per yard OF these
cotton goods was 605 cents In 1890 and 5.4s
cents in 1900.

a manufacturing state. Smallest in area,

The most interesting chapter Of the re-

number OF railway companies which had
