DON'T CRoAK.


Don't be discouraged. Remember
that God Almighty never went back
on Iowa. Don't croak! Don't COM
plain! If the weather don't suit you,
lay it to the weather man and smile.
True, things look blue. there is too
much water on the surface, there is
too much rain. But what of it? 1t has
been just as wet. just as rainy, just as
discouraging. and every thing came out
all right. In the month of May, 1892,
it rained during twenty-eight different
days, as shown by the weather service
at Des Moines. The land was flooded,
the streams knew no boundaries. Ev-
eryone was discouraged and predicted
disaster, but in spite of all the rain.
and wet. the United States raised the
second largest crop on record and Old
Iowa contributed her full quote toward
the grand total. Much of the corn that
year was planted after the fifth OF
June. and no small portion after the
tenth. ard it all matured and went into
the cribs in good shape. Iowa is all
right yet. Stand up for Iowa.

BIBLE READING GROWING.

| The Biblical World denies that tn,
influence of the Bible is waning and as
serts that the number of Bibles printed
is annually increasing a. an enormous
rate and that the number of persons
who read the Bible has increased
While family worship has become less
common than In previous generations
| the World attributes this not to fail
ure of piety. but to changing customs in
family life and the rush of business
school and society," The loss in family
worship has been more than compen-
stated, however, by the general increase
in Bible study and Its application to the
everyday matters of life thru the bet
ter understanding of its principles
which comes with study. This has lin
creased the influence OF the Bible in a
way never before attained"
DR.. Edward Everett Hale, writing in
the publication quoted above. sees "in
the speeches of public men adroit and
significant instances which show they
are curiously well read in scripture
He notes that scriptural points made In
congress are promptly taken and ac-
cepted and that scriptural quotations
are accepted with pleasure in congress
and in the state legislatures.
DR.. I. p. Sawin, of the Presbyterians
asserts in the symnosjyy,, nr;pted IN tho
Biblical World that while fifty years
ago more familiarity with the Outward
form" and phraseology of the Bible was
evident. the present generation has a
grasp and appreciation of its spirit
vastly greater and better than had that
Other writer's agree that
the present knowledge OF the scriptures
is greater and appreciation and appli-
cation Of its truths more universally
applied than ever before.

the students is about over. 1t will soon
be settled one way or the other. mostly
one way, however. The average young
man who devotes himself to course of
study as a rule gets thru all right.
There are some, however, who see SO
much to live for while they are in school
that they find it impossible to devote
themselves TO anything in particular. 1t
is these that suffer generally when it
comes to the final examinations"

most criminal and violent character and

accident. The Identification of the
prisoner With the pedaIer who COM
mitted the assault has oeen made COM
plete beyond a ques ton by the positive
assertions of the girl and one other
witness of complete credibility. The
maximum penalty for this particular
crime is only twenty years.
Those who saw the rsony and terror
OF the little girl when she was brought
face to face with her assailant yester-
day at the jail felt the weakness of the
withes whereby civilization binds i'm
pulse. Down deep in the nature of each
witness there stirred the primeval in
stinct to slaughter and the half-formed
desire for immediate vengeance gilt
tered in every eye. Quickly repressed
as it was, every man knew for an in
slant how mobs form under a common
impulse and understood somewhat of
the reason for the frequency of SOUTH

of his ilk haunting the farm
houses of Iowa with cheap jewelry and

LOOKER-ON in IOWA:

/ Conrad, June 12.-After travelling for
the past two weeks in the food districts
of western and southwestern Iowa it's
a satisfaction to get into a part of the
state where the growing crops are what
| they should be in the middle of June.
Between this place and Jewell in Mar
! shall and Hardin counties, along the c..
& N w. railroad. there is compara-
lively little damage to corn and oats.
Farmers are everywhere blowing their
corn and many fields are four inches
high. OF course there are some wet
spots where the corn has been killed,
but over this territory there is every
prospect for 80 per cent of crop OF
corn The same is true of oats. But
from Jewell west to Onawa, and from
there to Sioux City. probably not one
half of crop of corn IS planted, and
the prospect is dubious for the other
half.
Sioux City has one fad not noticeable
in other cities of Iowa, and that is for
the wealthy people to keep a Jersey
COW and pasture her in the front yard.
This does not refer to Pat Dugan and
his bit of place down on the rive"
bottom, but the Rockefeilers. the Nor
gans, the Nanderbilts and Goulds who
own ten to twenty thousand dollar resi-
dences on Jackson street places big
enough and nice enough to require the
services of a man to take care of the
lawn, act as coachlnan, etc. Some of
the lawns in front of these fine resi-
dences are ornamented with two Jersey
cows, evidently one COW not supplying
milk and cream enough for the family.
These high bred animals don't run the
streets-Oh no! Sioux City has go;
beyond pasturing the COWS in the
streets, but these rich men just keep
COW for family use, and naturally pas
ture her where the grass is good and
plenty.

too dry for frogs.
1t is wise to vary the industries and
crops on the farm, anyhow. A good
crop of frogs is big money, if there is
French settlement handy.

economic conditions, the growth of ur-

whatever increase of divorce relatively
exceeding the growth OF population the
statistics may show. The large figures

which husbands who desert their fami-
lies are protected by their obscurity
