Sunday morning. When the
Indians arrived there they had
been couped up in the cars
about forty hours and were in
anything buta pleasant mood.
No sooner had the train come
toa stop in the station than the
Indians commenced to swarm
from the cars, each giving vent
to his own peculiar brand of
war whoop. Disregarding the
orders of the managers they
swarmed through the passenger
station brandishing their toma-
hawks and beating tom toms,
and as grand finale they gave
a regular old time war dance in
the waiting room of the station.
Women tainted and the stouter
hearted men had business up
town. The Indians were finally
herded into a hotel across the
street from the depot and given
a feed, after which they were
corralled.

The people of this part of
the United States are prone to
say "Well, corn can be raised
only in this part of the United
States, while wheat can be
raised all over the world" This
is a mistake, as the corn crop
of Argentine is just being har-
vested and it is being estimated
that that country this year has
raised over 100000 tons of
good corn. Looks like that
country might be a competitor
of the United States in the
corn business some of these
days.

Crop Bulletin.
For week ending April 20,
1903. Des Moines, Iowa: The
week began and ended with
cool, wet and cloudy weather.
The daily average temperature
was from two to four degrees
below normal, and on several
mornings the minimum was at
the frost line. On the average
the conditions were favorable
for field work about half the
week, and some progress has
been made in seeding and pre-
parations for planting. The
amount of rainfall has not been
excessive except in limited por-
lions of the eastern districts,
but in all sections many fields
or parts of fields are still too
wet for seeding or blowing.
The continuance of wet and
cloudy weather will unquestion-
ably tend to reduce the acreage
of cereals to some extent as
compared with recent dry
years. In the northern section
the reports Indicate that seed
ing is about one-half to two
thirds completed.
Pasturage is making early
growth, and farm stock is graz
ing in many localities. Fruit
buds are showing signs of early
blooming, and the prospect is
good.

spread until it includes Logan,
