A Communication.

EDITOR REPORTER: l claim a
small space in your valuable paper for
my utter contempt Of the liar, the tat
tier, the mischief maker, the meddler,
the long tongue, the long nose, that
poke themselves into other peoples
affairs. The old witch of Endar, the
human monstrosity that campers with
little children telling them how to do
when they are being corrected by the
ones that are taking care of and board
ing them, giving them a home when no
others would. We would say to those
that have children put them out in
OF Z different homes. In some they were
corrected and in some they were let do
as they pleased, then take them back
and see what you can do and how hong
it takes you to let the child know you
are raising it and not let it think it is
raising you. You would want them to
conform to your rules and not to the
rules that others had let them go by.
If there were more corrections used
there would be less children in the re-
form school or penitentary.

Follows Counsel.

A great deal Of complaint was made
concerning the rainy spring which made
the corn planting late. But let us put
away this pessimistic spirit and be
optimists for a moment. This rain was
very good for the. butter makers. The
state commissioner who has looked into
the matter says the Iowa creameries
show an increase over last year Of from
seven to eight per cent. Butter and
hay and pasturage are going to make
good any possible losses in other direc-
tions. iowa follows the good old coun-
sci: ut doesn't carry all Of it's eggs in

M Railroad companies are preparing to
carryagreat consignments of hay from
Iowa to the east this fall. The hay
fields Of the east were early ruined for
this year by the excessive heat and fire,
while Iowa has possibility to garner
the largest crop ever produced by the
state. Usually the railroads at this
timesof the year begin to figure on trans
porting the corn to the east, but this
year 1t is bay, The prices paid for hay
and even straw in the east are exor-
bitant and it Is believed that the crying
demand for fodder will induce Iowa
farmers to cut up q great deal.

started to Idaho. spent one week on
the Nez Perez reservation with Job

with jeff Coin on the north fork Of Clear
Water, where there is nothing but
timber and game in abundance with
plenty Of trout fishing, but hard to get
to on account Of the roughness of the
country, and being a cripple had to
stay on top of the mountain. | saw one

day to get to the top. They have what
they call the Wallops running to the
Wallops on the North Fork that beats

and foams and the Dogs Hind Leg
where the danger comes in rafting logs,

On this river timber abounds every
where.I left this country July 9th and
went downto my folks in Washington. We
went fishing in Trap Lake and caught
800 to 1000 perch, as fine lot of fish as
could be. | crossed the Hole in the
Ground and saw the Devils Well in the

called the Scab Rock country and is
full Of. lakes from one mile to ten miles
in length, and mile wide. Some of
this country is farmed in strips, but the

Weather Crop Bulletin.
For WEEK ENDING AUGUST 3, 1903
Dies MONIES, Iowa.

a.
The first of the week was dry and very
warm, followed by we'll distributed and
beneficial showers and cooler weather.
The week closed warm and showery.
with some heavy local rain. There was
an average of about four days of good
harvest weather, which was we'll i'm
proved. Except in portions Of the
northern section the hay and grain
harvest is practically completed. All
reports indicate a very heavy crop Of
hay mostly secured in good condition.
Threshing wheat, oats and barley is in
progress, with somewhat variable re-
ports as to the yield. Generally, how
ever, the output of spring wheat and
oats is reported to be below the average
in amount and weight Of grain. The
copious showers have been timely ~
beneficial to the corn crop, and as q
whole it has made fairly good progress.
1t needs warmer weather in the future,
and is now in condition to mature with
but little additional moisture. There
are numerous reports of damage to the
potato crop by rotting and blight.
There is no special change in the condi-
Ition Of the apple crop.
