Now Wheat Mark oted.

ed in this city was brought in last

ports that the grain will average 20

with fair weather the threshing will be
finished this week. All reports are
that in the vicinity of Willmar the
grain is turning out nicely and will be
good average. All of the above
grain was marketed At the Northwes
tern elevator.

CITY Hunters Not Popular.

The following article from the Rem
Vile Star Fa,mer strikes q popular
chord in all rural communities:
Some of the farmers are having
cards printed forbidding hunting on
their grounds. This is nothing more
than right. As soon as the hunting
is open the very numerous nimrods
from the cities come out with dog aud
gun going through the farms without
regard to the rights of the farmer.
They not only sometimes drive through
his fax and race through his corn but
kill all the chickens at time of the
year the farmer has no time to hunt.
If local hunting from the villagers
were all who went out there might be
game enough for rall, but when 3 whole
army from the cities swoop down upor
the rural districts It bears more of thu
features Of q battle at close rang.

Beautify tho City.

In view of the fact that Willmar Is
to entertain one of the largest crowds
in it's history at the coming street fair,
Sept. II, 18 and 10, little timely ad-
wise relative to the cleanliness of the
city would not be amiss. The writer
in making the rounds has observed
that there are 9 number of localities
where the cutting of weeds would do
no harm, and a little work In this d.
rection on the part of property owners
would be great blessing. Nothing
looks more unsighty in any. commun-
ity than to see weeds here and there
allowed to grow without any attempt
to stop them. While the order of the
board of health has proven quite eftec-
tive, especially in the more settled
portions of the city, yet there are sew
eral places where a little cleaning
would be appreciated. Not only weeds
but also all rubbish can be removed
without much effort on the part OF
property owners, and it should in
variably be the case if such parties
take any pride at all in their city.
Let us all unite in these matters and
we will have no reason to be ashamed
of Willmar when visitors are taken
about the city. There are many pret
ty residences and lawns and any mum.
ber of shade trees that are q source o1
pride to all, and Willmar will take NJ
back seat in this respect. A number
of shade trees in the city could bl
trimmed for the convenience of side
walk pedestrians.

New Grain Rates.

The conference of traffic officials helds
at the general Offices of the Great
Northern regarding the reduction in
grain rates from northern Minnesota,
North and South Dakota to; Mime
apolis, st. Paul, Duluth, Milwaukee
and Chicago, agreed to place the-,same
in effect on August %.
The North Western and Milwaukee
systems agreed to print joint tariff
on the scale of rates proposed by the
Northern Pacific and Great Northern.
The whole proceeding was devoid of
that graciousness which marks an
agreement which commends itself to
all.
None Of the roads would give any
idea of the revenue that will be lost
through the reduction, and it 10 impos-
sible to estimate the aggregate sum
saved to the farmers and middlemen
OF the Northwest on the present crop.
With north coast lines jumping ahead
In earnings at the rate of $1,000, 900
and SO, ,0OO, 900 annually, the more fair
minded officials fail to see in what re-
spect the north cost roads are under
taking such self-sacrificing enter
prise, nor do they belive that the
Great Northern and Northern Pacific
are making as great reduction as
they should volunteer in view of their
increased traffic.
The reductions average from 8 to IL
per cent per hundred pounds of grain
shipped according to conditions.
Some idea of the extent of the reduc-
tions may be gained from compari.
son of rates from few points to Min
neapolis.
For instance the present rate from
St. Cloud to Minneapolis is 9 cents.
The new rate will be 8 cents.
Hutchinson, old rate cents, new
rate cents; Fergus Falls, old rate, 13
new, Ill; Elbow Lake, old IL, new IL;
Willmar, old 10, new, 9; Pipestone,
old IA, new l3; Yankton, S. D. old 18,

lit; Underwood, N. D., old 144, new
III; Fargo, old l44, new IA; Grand
Forks, old 14}, new IA; St. Vincent,
Minu., and Pembina, N. D, old 16,
new Is; Leeds, N. D., old II, new 16;
Minot, old 20, new 18.
The reductions are considerable.
On car of 10000 pounds from Minot
to Minneapolis and St. Paul, the old
rate was 20 cents, or S120 for the car.
Under the new tariff the same ship
ment will be $l08. saving of s12 to
the car. -
| Corresponding reductions are made

lake ports.-Minneapolis Times.

The above scores are the results OF
the two games played at Willmar Ath-
letic Park on Friday and Saturday OF
last week between the Flour City team
of Minneapolis and the home team.
They we're both fast games and will
60 on record for one thing especially,
and that was the phenomenal playing
of the home pitcher, Booth, who struck
out Is men in each game. It was
rather hard on the visitors, but no
more so than on Booths arm. Bon
de, as usual, did excellent work, be-
hind the bat. Good support was
furnished from all points in the dia-
mond and it was clearly seen that our
boys were giving the enemy hard
struggle.
Fridays game was such q close
contest and enthusiasm ran 80 high
that it was not difficult matter to
draw larger crowd on the following
day: McDugal and Jarvie did the
honors as battery for Minneapolis.
The boys all found McDugal's curves
with the exception of six. Booth al.
lowed two men bases on ball and Nc.
Dugal three; hit by pitched ball, Nc.
Dugal l; two-base hits, Minneapolis
l, Willmar 2; Bonde and Branton;
sacrifice hits, Willmar l, Williams;
double plays, Larson to Tyler to
Branton; fly caught by Booth and
then to first base. Booth struck out
two men in the very first inning. A
wild throw to first base at one stage
of the game gave the visitors two runs
Robert Bitterness officiated as umpire
Time of game, 1:30. Attendance, 1O3
On Saturday Ford and Speiser were
put in the box, but Ford managed tc
strike out only two men and Speisel
seven. The latter has the reputation
of being one of the crack pitchers II
the cities and had been carefully se
leced to ''do up" the opponents. Il
seems, however, that Minneapolis
went to pieces in the second game, fol
they allowed the home team nine hits
and we're responsible for nine errors
The Flour City, Birkhoffer and To ozes
men all combined to cause Willmar's
downfall, but they were outclassed
There were several very exciting feat
ures, among which was home run by
Setterbak on a fly which he battei
clear over the fence. Williams pro
vided amusement for the crowd BY
managing to reach second base afte1
allowing the first and second baseme1
to play toss while. Ford gave two
men base on balls, Speiser three ant
