We have had lot more, rain and the
country south of US that was suffering
has also received good soaking. The
reports from the crops, however, are dis
appointing. A month or so ago every
thing pointed to fine crop, but the
grain has not stooled as was expected
and is heading out on rather short !. and
thin straw. Weeds are plenty. The con-
sensus OF the opinions OF large number
of farmers from all parts Of the county
interviewed this week is that the crop
will be light on an average in this coun-
ty. OF course much will depend on how
the heads fill. If the heads are long and
full and the grain short and the price
keeps up, it may be better paying crop
than some crops which promised more
when growing on the ground. !
Fred White, who had been assisting
Landlord Perrault in the hotel business
at Bathgate, before the latter clysed out,
Started in on the fourth at that place to
assist in celebrating the dav with the as.
sistance of another man, whose name we
have not learned, by selling booze. The
officials got after them and White skip
ped to st. VINCENT, on the. other side of
the river. On Sunday night, however,
he thought it safe to come to this side of
the river and sleep at the Winchester,
and it is said that the attraction to this
side was a fair one, but, like many an
other. it proved his undoing, for deputy
sheriff Wilson, of Cavalier, was also at
the hotel the same night and in the morn
ing he took Mr.. w. to the county Jail.
Later, at an examination at Bathgate,
White and the other man, who had also
been arrested, plead guilty and were sent
here to Jail, awaiting sentence.

who was also resident of Pembina at
the time of her sisters marriage here,
will visit here in short time, and meet
her for the first time since then. Mrs.
Bebee's first husband was also named
