Humboldt, Aug. PA recent very
careful examination of the grain fields
in all parts of this county shows a Very
bad condition. In the flat sections q
large acreage was too wet to be entered
with the binder, and from five to 100
acre patches have been utterly aban-

handle the immense rainfall of the past
two months. Everywhere great stretch
es of grain in the shock fill the fields.
and almost every bundle exposed shows
the green growth of the rot:ing grain
Very little stacking has been done, and
most of the shocks are uncapped and
badly damaged. Many stacks, also
have suffered from wind and rain, and
are heating and giving off the odor of
decay
What little threshing has been done
has been done under great disadvan-
tage, as both fields and roads have al
most forbidden the passage of the en-
zine, and the grain has. been Very
Camp and tough. and the machine has
stopped at the edge of the dryest field

this was carried unanimously, after
which the meeting adjourned.

Those who had been present at the

quorum. 1t was stated that Director
Lamm, Hoerr and Meyer were In the

to attend the meeting. Efforts were
made to secure the presence of Messrs

BILE.
This made bare quorum, and after
talking the matter over, it was voted
to accept the contract, with the
amendments which the eastern gentle
men had accepted, and including the
$500, 900 bond issue.
A telegram was sent to Mr.. Collins,
informing him of the action taken.
It developed at the meeting that
the negotiations were not necessarily
broken off, that the eastern gentlemen
departed in a pleasant frame of mind,
and that Mr.. Williams had suggested
shortly before departing that the ne
gotiations could be continued through
the mails. There had simply not been
time to arrive at full understanding
of the situation. Messrs. Hixon and
Clark, having devoted most of their
time to the matter, were better posted
and better prepared to act than some
of the other directors, who did not
want to enter into an important con-
tract without full understanding Of
what they were doing.
