Crop Summary.

Following is the North Dakota crop
summary for the week ending Mon
day, July "a, 1905, us sent out from
Bismarck by Station Director Bron-
son:
Light to heavy showers fell in the
eastern and northern parts of the
state, during the past week, while
only scattered showers fell in other
portions. The temperature was
slightly below. the normal in the CEN
tral part Of the state, but the days
were generally clear and bright. Hail
storms occurred in nearly all sections,
being especially destructive in Rich.
land and Stark counties, but OF limit
ed area.
"Wheat still continues to do we'll.
That sown early is headed out, while
the late-sown is fast heading. The
early-sown grain is said to be filling
we'll. While red rust is present in
most fields, reports regarding blacl,
rust are quite conflicting, and it does
not seem to be widespread or to have
done any particular damage SO far.
'Early barley is turning, and har.
vest of it will commence next week in
some parts. Oats are doing fairly
we'll. EARLY flax is in blossom, and
the crop has made considerable prog
reSS since the weather became warm,
"Corn is growing very fast, but is
still considerably behind the season.
'Haymaking has been considerable y
retarded by frequent light showers
the past week, and also owing to most
low land being covered with water, SO
it cannot be got at"

A Long-Felt Want.

Linton's shortage of hotel accom-
modations is to be still shorter. Au-
gust Obermeier has sold his building
to John Hagg, who will open Il hard
ware store in the first story and rent
the upper floor either by the room or
as u whole to a family. Mr.. and Mrs.
Obermeier have done well with the
bakery and hotel. But they have both
been oyerworked, and have not had
sufficient room to run the hotel part
Of their business on a scale large
enough to justify them in securing
the necessary help. slr., and Mrs.
ObermeIer are pleasant, industrious
people, and everybody in town Is

sorry to have them quit. They will
rest awhile. and will then probably.
open a bakery and confectionery in
Linton; August being first-classi
baker and pastry cook. In the mean
time, it is to be hoped that, until
there are additional hotel facilities,
every private family who can possibly
furnish sleeping accommodati0 70

6 to 0 in favor of Herreid. The game
was called at 2:55, and the Linton,
team did fairly we'll, when taking into
consideration the fact that most OF
them had been driving all night.
The game began with Lang, Of the
Reds,at bat. He,Acheson and Clayton
proceeded to fan the air and quit in
one-two-three order. This, by the
way, is what the whole team, with
possibly one or two exceptions, did
during the following eight innings.
In the meantime the Herreidites
were making one run in the first, two
in the third, one in the fifth and two
in the sixth. When one remembers
that the Herreid boys made seventeen
hits to Linton's four, it can be seen
that the team from this place were
lucky in not allowing them more
scores than they got. The incest
catch made was of a liner by Petric
in left field Of what looked like Il home
run. Coonen also made difficult catch
Of short fly. Once Il play which
looked like double was spoiled by
muff by Moore ut second when IL man
at second and at first should have
been retired. A little hesitancy on
the part of Streeter in right also failed
to retire Il man at first which could
have been easily accomplished. Ache
son, behind the bat, made several
fine stops at critical times, as did
Clayton at first of wild-thrown balls.
Lang also made beautiful onc-hand-
cd catch Of high-thrown ball.
While it is generally admitted that
the Lintonites have fairly good ag-
gregation of ball-playcrs, all agree
that the boys will never make good
until they become willing to practice
batting. Henry Bloom, Of Pollock,
was the umpire; and, by the way, he
is all o. X.

THE bosses of the machine known
as the state editorial ssociation-who
meet together occasionally for mutual
admiration and incidentally to roast
pretty nearly everybody and every
thing are hereby informed that they
can't get us into a scrap over the libel
bill or any other matter just at pres
ent. We are striving hard to conquer
an obstreperous gasoline engine that's
been ION it's ear" for a fortnight, and
1t is giving us about all the trouble we

A DAILY train.

This forenoon Agent Byrne, of Lin
on, received telegram from Supt.
Mason, Of the Milwaukee, stating that
the company had decided to establish
a daily Except Sunday train service
between Eureka and Linton. In
other words, Linton instead OF Eu-
reka to be the end Of the daily service
from Aberdeen. The proviso is made,
however, that the service will be for
but year under the present promise,
and at the end OF that time it's con-
tinuancc will be governed by tile
matter Of profit or loss to the COM
pany. The further proviso is made
THAT the government will give the
company a mail contract for II year.
1t is possible that this can be arranged
and thus secure the increased service.
The business men Of Linton will at
once telegraph Senator Hansbrpugh,
who Is In Washington being the only
North Dakota senator or representa-
tive there at present ask him to
help the matter with tile postofice
department. This course was suggest
ed BY snpt. Mason.
