LAST WEEKS WEATHER.

Spell Was Broken by Showery

crop service for the week ending
September 1. In the eastern section
the cOpiOus rains were on the 18th
and 26th, on which dates more than an
inch Of rain occurred in many locali-
ties. The rains interrupted harvest
ing and threshing. thus delaying those
operations several days. and slightly
injured wheat in some localities by
bleaching. but the benefits from the
rains far OutWeighed the trifiing dam
age. Late spring grain. which was in
danger of burning" from the hot
winds, was saved from injury, and
sugar beets and late vegetables were
greatly benefited. But the best re
suits were the reviying of pastures
and the soaking up Of the ground for
fall blowing The soil has been put
in much better condition for blowing
than it was, but more rain is needed
for the purpose.
Considerable spring wheat remains
to be cut. The harvest is about TWO
thirds over in the late localities. All
reports received confirm the estimates
Of the wheat crop already given,
varying crop, according to
locality and cultivation, of from half
the average yield to somewhat below
average, and quality the very best.
Oats have nearly all been harvested
and the yield was good.
Potatoes continue to thrive. al
though there are some reports OIL
blight. On the whole the potato crop
promises to be an excellent one.
Hops. which at enc time looked very
lnpr0mising, have greatly improved. |
The shipment Of large quantities Of
Inc fruit continues from the irrigat- !
Il districts and the third cutting OF |
l good crop Of alfalfa has been Sc
:ured in fine condition.

Medicine

elf your Vinol is such wonder
full stuff, what's the need of harp
ing about it so much in the paper"
A remark heard in our store.
We answer: We advertise Vinol
because we have found it a good
thing. "
We advertise Vinol under our
own name and with our own guar
antee, because it is different from
the twenty medicines my friend
alluded to. For instance, it is not
a seesTt preparation. 1t is endorsed
by physicians. 1t has a surprising
record Of cures right here in town.
1t has our absolute guarantee of
money back if you are not helped.
We advertise Vmol to increaseits
usefulness. We may repeat, but
we remember that the great Sena-
tor Benton said, "Ding-dong is the
most effective argument" meaning
that you have to say thing good
many times before you can get
people to believe it.
Sowewant to say once more that
we believe Vinol will do effective
work in ninety-eight cases out OF

ness;ansomnia, bronchitis, hacking
cough, lung troubles, and the

Burial Permits,

Permit signed by attending
physician or coroner required be-
fore burial of body of any human
being.
Section 26e of the Revised
Codes reads as follows: mo un-
dertaker or other person shall
bury or prepare for burial the
body of any human being without
a certificate signed by the attend
ing physician or by the coroner"
This is the law of the state on
this subject and will be rigidly
enforced. All persons are bound
by it and no person or society of
persons is exempt from the op-
GRAFTON of the law.
The state law requires that a
permit, signed by a physician or
coroner, shall be secured before
any human body can be buried.
This law has never been enforced
in this county, but we are in.
formed that it will be from now
on. We believe that enforce
ment of this law is for the gen.
eral welfare.
This is clear and concise. If
permit cannot be signed by {
physician for the reason tha
there was no attending physl
clan. then. in every case, it must
be signed by the coroner. Any
person neglecting or refusing te
comply with the provisions of the
above rectlon is guilty of mis-
demeanor.

Pure Food Law.

| The first arrest for violation of
the pure food law was made at
Larimore. A warrant was is
suep on complaint of E. F. Ladd
the state chemist, for the arrest
of I. N. Clark, who lives at
Larimore, and represents gro
Gerry supply house doing business
at Chicago.
The firm represented. by Mr..
Clark has shipped at least three
carloads of goods to Larimore
and other points in that section
of the state. Wednesday Prof.
| Ladd visited Larimore and made
a demand on Mr.. Wallace, who
brought the car from Chicago,
for five gallon keg of cider vim
egar, and proceed to analyze it.
The analysis showed that the
vinegar was not cider vinegar
but an adulteratlon, and the war;
rant for the arrest of Mr.. Clark,
who scld the goods, was issued
yesterday morning and sent to
a deputy sheriff at Larimore for
services.
The firm represented by Mr..
Clark is believed by Mr.. Ladd to
be one of II Chicago concerns
who have formed a combination
for the avowed purpose OF fighting
the pure food laws of North and
South Dakota and Minneso ia.
Mr.. Wallace and Mr.. Clark
both stated to Prof. Ladd, when
he made the purchase of vinegar
that the firm would fight the case
and they also informed him tha
I he ought to have got hold of some
of the goods shipped in the tw<
former cars if he wanted to ge
the adulterations. In this par
ticular car it was claimed tina

Special Session OF the Legislature.
Governor White will call a spe-
cial session of the legislature in
September to take action in the
emergency caused by the failure
of the institution bonds to be
negotiated. The session will be
a short one, probably not more
than three or four days. The
governor leaves tomorrow on
a trip through the state, and will
visit the different institutions and
ascertain what amounts they will
need for essential improvements
and to defraY expenses already
incurred, and he will also endea-
vor to bring the institutions to an
agreement as to what they shall
receive, so that there will be no
friction when thesessionis called.
The governor believes this to be
the only way out of the emergen.
cy. Wednesday noon be stated
to the Tribune that there would
be S1Oo, 900 available from the
general fund, above current ex'
penses to the end of the year,
This amount could be appropria-
ted directly to the institutions,
and $l50,000 more could be ap'
propriated available IN March
next, This would give the insti:
tutions a basis of credit, and
would enable them to meet the
existing conditions. The ex-
pense of a three or four day ses-
sion of. the legislature would not

outside OF The fire limits of this city.
Chief Pettey ordered the truck and the
Hydraulion engine to repair to the scene
Of the confagration. The ire. which, il
is safd, originated from an overheated
flue consumed the houses occupied BY
Herbert J. Rose and Thomas Lynn and
seriously damaged the house occupied
by Addison C. Fauber in West End.
The two buildings which were destroyed
were owned by James Z. Elliott. The
Alexandria fremen worked heroicaHy 10
save the buildings. and by their efforts
saved the furniture in the houses and
confined the flames to the buildings in
which they started.
The second alarm of FIRE was sounded
last night about 10 O'Clock, and was
caused by fire being discovered in the
smokestack on the planning mill of
Smoot & Co. on North Lee Street. This
FIRE was soon extfuguished. The en-
gines had hardly returned to their house
when a third alarm was sounded. which
was caused by a burning chimney Oh the
