WEATHER AND CROPS.

Barley harvest has been in full
swing this week and good crop Of
this grain is being gathered.
Macaroni wheat harvest will be,
gin the first of next week. This
wheat is now practically out OF
danger and will be a good crop. A
close examination of the fields shows
that there are some heads that are
blighted and have not filled, but il
is not expected that this blight will
decrease the yield to any extent.
The blue stem wheat harvest will
not begin for week or ten days yet.
While there are occasional good
pieces, the grain will not be q good
crop as compared with other grains,
on account of several reasons that
we have noted during the growing
season.
In spite of occasional clouds the
weather this week has remained dry.
and for the most part has been
neither hot nor too cold. 1t has
been fine weather both for making
nay and for the growing grain.

George b. Darling was overcome
by the heat at seven o'clock last eve
ming and died almost instantly.
This information spread about
town last evening created universal
feeling OF sorrow and sympathy for
Mrs. Darling and her family. That
SO we'll known man, in good health,
had been taken so quickly seemed
almost incomprehensible.
Mr., Darling has taken much inter
est his farm of late years, and it was
his boast that he could do a full
days work in the field. He was
assisting at haying yesterday, and
was overcome about seven o'clock,
just as the cool breeze came up. He
expired almost Immediately.
Mr.. Darling has stood high in this
community both as citizen and rs a
man. He was lawyer of ability,
and for l6 yeers held the office of
judge of probate. Recently he has
given much attention to the public
schools. being president Of the school
board. AS a citizen he was ever
willing to help in every good cause
and as a man he was a delightful
friend and fond and devoted hus-
band and parent.
Mr.. Darling was a native of North
Royalton, Massachusetts, and was
born February rs. 1850. While he
was yet boy his parents, Samuel
D. and Lydia (MarshalD Darling,
removed to Fond du Lac county.
Wisconsin, where he grew to man
hood: and received his education.
He remained upon his fathers farm,
attending the district school in his
youth, until 1871. at which date he
went to Milwaukee, Wisconsin, where
he entered commercial college.
One year later he removed to Chic
ago, and attended a special course
at the Union Park Theological Semi
nary for year. At the expiration
of that time he went to Winneconne,
Wisconsin, and there engaged in the
insurance business, and during his
four years residence there, studied
law in his own Office. In 1878 he
was admitted to the bar, and shortly
afterward came to Morris and located
The subject of this memoir was
united in marriage November 16,
1875, with Mss Nellie M. Bailey, the
daughter of Samuel and Rebecca
('Thite) Bailey, of Fond du Lac,
Wisconsin. By this union there have
been born eight children-George
F, William M. Edward B, Gertrude

Ne.s Hoff planted a half acre of
alfalfa last spring that has grown
nicely, He has already cut two
crops and expects to cut another
before the end of the summer. The
grass attained a height of over two
feet and came up quite thick. The
second crop was even better than
the first. The experiment indicates
that alfalfa can be raised here dur
ing a wet season. It probably
would not do so we'll dry year. It
would do no harm, however, for
other of our farmers to experiment
and see just what the grass can be
made to do here. Alfalfa hay
makes excellent feed and if it can be
successfully raised here would prove
a great boon to stock raising and
dairying. -Kerkhoven Banner.

Neither great deal of dissatisfac-
ton nor great deal of approval is
expressed among the business men
of the Carnival lest week. In most
lines of business there was not as
much as at other times, and even
stores that deal in CONNECTIONS and
similer goods boast of no exceptional
trade. While all do not approve of
the carnival, and the people it brings
to town, yet all who had dealings
with the Cash Carnival Co. speak in
the highest terms of the manage
ment. 1t is worthy of publicity that
the management paid personal debts
here of an advance agent who was
discharged from the employ of the
company after he was here, and they
also honored vast number of comp
limentary tickets that he issued. This
action on the part of the company de-
serves the highest COMMUNICATION.

The Phoenix Mining Congress.

The whole territory, and Phoenix
especially, have been placed under OBJ
legations to Professor A. w. Forbes,
of the department of mining in the
University of Arizona, by his success
full efforts in securing to this city the
next meeting of the American Mining
Congress.
The date of the meeting has not
been determined yet. but it would be
a happy coincidence if it should be
in the week of the next territorial
fair.
The American Mining Congress will
henceforth be a more important body
than it has hitherto been. though 1t
has alredy accomplished much for
miners and mining companies. Until
now the representation in the congress
has been rather indeterminate, but
from what has been gathered from
reports of the proceedings at FL Paso
it will take on more of an official
character and will become to the min
ing interests of the west what the Ma
live stock interests of the west.
One great object of the congress is
to secure for the mining industry a
representation in the cabinet. That
perhaps is not Immediately possible,
but it will become so after a while
by the consolidated efforts of those
who are contributing so much to the
visible wealth of the country.
Another aim of the congress is to
secure a uniformity of mining laws
in place of the conflicting customs of
isolated localities which have come to
be regarded by the courts as laws and
which are thereby rendered none the
less conflicting.
1t is highly appropriate that Arizona
should be given the honor of enter
tanning the mining congress. 1t is for
one thing one of tAe most important
mining regions of the country. 1t is
the home of not only the largest mines
but is the region of the greatest I'M
developed mineral wealth. And then
there is something not generally
known-it was an Arizonian who was
one of the promoters, if not the chief
promoter, of the first mining congress.
and an active representative in every
succeeding congress-Thos. L. Ewing,
of Mohave county.
Phoenix has been very properly
chosen as the town in Arizona where
the congress should meet 1t is true
that this city is not situated in an
important mining district. 1t may not
be said that it is adjacent to one, but
it is in the center of all of them.
