Meal tickets or money never

hungry man never gets out.
The Masonic temple is a big
affair. In the main auditorium
or lodge room there is a stag
large enough to heard an opera
company-if properly dressed,
and during the morning hours
an aggregation of vaudeville
artists drifted in from some
where and gave an entertain
ment on this state that was
worth going miles to see. But
when it comes to music give me
the shrine band. I would wake
up at any hour Of the night to
hear this band if they were
playing in the same room.
After it was all over and | had
got back to Grafton | looked
myself over and found new
features on my body-but I did
not have to have any limbs weld
ed on at the Shrine blacksmith
shop or didn't lose any boughten
hair, which in our money is
known as wig, as one candi-
date did; but think he got his
hair back. Fargo is a fine city,

as being the annex of that

Rust Talk influences
The Grain Market

Minneapolis Tribune: The
rust specter is hanging over the
northwestern wheat crop. Con-
siderable llneasiness is being
developed on account Of the con
.tinued rains and the near ap-
proach Of the period Of hot
weather. s9s
It is too early for a genuine
rust scare, but the experience Of
last season is still too vivid in
the memory of the northwestern
people for them not to feel ap-
prehension on even the possibili-
ty of such a calamity.
Following Professor Bolley's
remarks to the effect that the
sbarberry hedges in North Da-
tkota were in u condition to
spread rust to the wheat fields,
several blades were exhibited on
the change today that showed
evidence of red rust. Red rust
- lAAOU3 cAA ullSOllll1lO14 N5OCSuISilSC,
especially when the plant is sub
jected to an abnormal rainfall,
but red rust hints at the posi-
bility of black rust later end
black rustiis destructive. The
specimens came from fields near
Vining, MINI.
There is too much moisture
over the greater portion Of the
spring wheat belt and the fore
cast offers no hope that the
weather will clear. The only
hopeful outlook for the next
tWenty-four hours is the cooler
temp eratures prevailing. IF hot,
steaming weather develops the
situation will become critical.
The effect on the market, at
least, was portentious. July
jumped 81 cents September Il
cents, and closed strong at the
advance.
