1t is quite evident that the wheat crop
in this county is not going to fulfill the
expectations of those who prophesied
that there would be large crop. Some
fields of wheat that have been cut show
that considerable blight has followed
the hot weather. That is about the worst
foe to good crop this year. Gram
should be plump where the fields are not
blighted and those who are so fortunate
az to escape this evil should secure good
grade. Oats Will be at least an average
crop and the corn that was put IN early
enough to escape the frosts will be
excellent, though there will he much
that will not ripen.

In establishing the town that has been
laid out on The land of the New Ulm
Land and Investment Co. s in Asslniboia,
Canada, the railroad company has de-
signated one of the streets Somsen, one
Hoidale and another is name Ulm street,
thus Will the new metropolis of the
northwest be distinguished in its forma-
ton by names that are synonymous Of
progress and stability. There is not the
slightest doubt but that these streets will
be the most popular streets in the place
and it will be only a few years before
the postman will be looking for numbers
on them that will read into four and FIVE
figures.
The flood gates of heaven apparently
opened Sunday right and one of the
fercest storms of the season turned loose

pour of rain such as has not been in the
