Despite the numerous heavy rains
and reports of crop washouts, the crop
in Dubuque county this year will be
rs large as ever Farmers, however,
have been put to much trouble and eN-
pense on account of being compelled
10 replant the oat and corn crop.
The hay, oats and wheat crop this
year will be fine" said George w.
Healey. lowing to the heavy rains
and cool weather harvesting has been
set back this year and the farmers
have just begun to put up the hay
crop. In previous years it was Gus
tonlary to begin harvesting about the
first of July. Many people are of the
opinion that the hay and oats crop
this year will not be near as large as
in former years, but this is a mistake.
The only cereal that will perhaps suf-
fer as a result of the heavy storms is
wheat. This crop will not be as large
much difference TO the people of Du-
buque county. The crop that interests
us most is hay and it will come up TO
all expectations The price will also
be higher this year, but we don't care
so much for the price. What we want
is the crop. Next in Importance come
oats and corn and Dubuque county
will make Il good showing in these
cereals. OF course the heavy rains
and cool weather have interfered With
the early growth of hay, oats, corn
and wheat, but all but the latter crop
crop will be as big as in former
years.

only in the shape of the cone, and in
height. They all play perpendicularly,

Before leaving the basin, | must say

station wanted a small garden for fresh
vegetables She had confidence in the
soil and the climate. The wise men
who preside over the destinies of the
park wrestled with this problem for a
long time. They detected in this desire
u diabolical plot to turn the park into
an agricultural region, and they virtu-
ously declined to be tempted. AT last,
for the consideration of S15o-I don't

She used the little planks, the first cut
of the little pine logs, making the shack
about ten feet high, and mailing the
panks perpendicularly. She used
