On the whole it is safe to say that
the crops of the west have done very
we'll in spite of the most remarkable
excess of rainfall. Except in locali-
ties it has not come down with such
force or in such volume ut any time as
to destroy crops, but the surplus
water is now working dreadful havoc
with the fields in the valleys of the
Des Moines and Mississippi rivers, in
southern Iowa and northern Mis-
souri,. There the prospect of bounti-
full crops has been turned by the ris-
ing floods into certainty of entire
crop losses. -.

It is not generally known that on
ascending the throne King Edward
became guardian of his grandchil-
dren, the parents rights being SUPER
seeded. This arrangement was estab-
1ished by law nearly 200 years ago,

cised by the Georges, who had way
of quarreling with their sons. No
member of the royal family may
marry without the kings consent;
otherwise the marriage is void.
