Sioux Falls, S. D.. July 14.-The South
Dakota Central Railroad company.
which is constructing a railroad from
Sioux Falls to Madison, via Cotton, has
just had its first strike. which termi-
Lated differently from what the strik-
ers expected, much to their confusion.
About forty of the men engaged in
grading We're involved in the strike.
They We're receiving s26 per month and
board, and sought to secure an in
crease TO $35 per month. with board.
They, however, made a fatal mistake.
for instead of making demand upon
the officers of the company for the in
crease prior to ceasng work, they
stopped work first and made their de-
mand for the increase afterward. Be
cause of this procedure the officers of
the road were very angry, and p. f.
Sherman. president of the company.
who WAS summoned 10 the scene of the
strike. promptly notified the strikers
that ne would have no dealings what
ever with them and that they could not
continue to work for the company even
at the old wages. A force of men
which arrived today from the east will
take the places of !le strikers.

WEEKLY CROP BULLETIN.
Weather Has Been Unusually Cool
With Much Cloudiness


Huron S. D.. July 14.-The weather dur
ing the week averaged cooler than usual
for the time in the season and there was
considerable cloudness. Well distributed.
and in most eastern counties moderate to
generous, showers occurred, principally
the fore part of the Week The moisture
4s now ample. except in localities in sew
eral middle and upper James river coun-
ties, where more rain is needed soon for
wheat, oats and late barley
On the whole the condition of wheat
continues satisfactory, although in the
limited localities where more moisture is
needed some of the crop has suffered de-
terioration. Wheat is heading generally,
and the earliest is filling WE'LL and as a
Tule the heads and straw are very good
length
Oats barley. spelt and rye have made
good advance and continue in promising
condition. In the southeastern counties
some barley and rye are nearly ready TO
harvest.
While still backward, corn is in healthy
condition and has made good advance, the
growth being rapid in southern counties.
where some is laid by. In parts of the
Sioux and lower James river valleys how
ever, rains have retarded cultivation and
some fields are weedy
Grass has advanced well and pastura ge
is very good. Haying was a little inter-
rupted by showers
Flax, mllet, potatoes and garden stuff
continue to make thrifty advance. Pota-
toes are very promising.
The outlook for fruit is good, although
not as hattering as earlier in the season.
Live stock is in very good condition
generally.
