the morning of the 21st, when a de-
cided fall in temperature occurred
throughout the state, and the remain
der of the week was quite cool. Rains
were scattered and rather light, the
most general being the showers of
the 23d in the northern and eastern
parts of the state. On the 22d and
23d hail fell at scattered points in
the Missouri river valley in Cascade
and southwestern Choteau counties,
but did very little, if any, damage,
The weather conditions were very
favorable for the winter wheat har-
vest and for the ripening of oats and
spring wheat: the harvest of the lat
ter crop will begin within a week
and their present condition indicates
that the yields will range from an
average to above; the winter wheat
crop is generally good and threshing
is becoming general in the Gallatin
valley.
The second crop of alfalfa is still
being harvested in some localities,
and at points in the southwestern
counties cutting has not yet begun;
the yield is proving very good. Hay
ing is nearly finished, except in Val.
ley county; reports are still to the
effect that the yield will be rather
poor. except in the southwestern
counties. The range is getting dry
and somewhat short.
The potato crop is excellent and
minor crops are fair to good.

servations of my own life and to
reflect that all the time there is q
war of change. 1t is mighty COM
mon to notice sand wagons. and
perhaps there are many ready to
say that there is nothing in one of
these wagons to cause thought of
the past. But they put me to
studying over what fight it is for
even sand to hold it's place in the
world. Nature moves along to re-
peat over and over again the same
long fight, the same sad struggle.
Every day these sand wagons are
moving in and out on every road
leading into the oity-like ants
they seem, so industrious and wind
ing one after the other. The team
sters know how to wind with the
hills and find the flats of sand and
gravel, 1t is not an easy thing to
haul this sand. but there are plen-
ty of teamsters glad to do it These
fill their places and they have their
pleasures. I have watched their
eyes twinkle as they would discov-
er quality of sand just suited to
their purposes and the sweat would
roll from their faces as they SHOW
eled it from it's place. Hard work
it is to get this sand, but it is sand
purified by the thumps and tum-
bles of nature. For years upon
years these little grains of sand
have been washed down and down
till at the very bottom it has been
left to lie without a seeming pur-
pose. But centuries roll and the
great changes come that makes the
sand hauler glad to lift it from its
place to return to hill again and
there to take a place on frescoed
walls, a thing of beauty and of
usefulness. So the fight begins
again to carry it down and ever and
over works the decrees of provi-
dence, till who shall say but what
the mission of the old and their
pleasures as well are not equal to |
those who are yet in youth. live
in the hope that God will regulate
things in His own good way that
all of us can get good out of life if
only we will try-we are trying.
