Too much care cannot be used with
small children during the hot weather
of the summer months to guard
against bowel troubles. As rule it
is only necessary to give the child a
dose of castor oil to correct any dis
order Of the bowels. Do not use any
substitute, but give the old fashioned
castor oil, and see that 1T is fresh, as
rancid OIL nauSeates and has tend
ency to grip. Ii it does not check the
bowels give Chamberiain'S Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy and
then dose of castor oil, and the
disease may be checked in its in-
cipiency and all danger avoided. The
castor oil and this remedy should be
procured at once and kept ready FOL
instant use as soon as the first in

BARRIERS CONSOLIDATE

Messrs. o. E. and O'Dell, Carson
Burt have formed a partnership and
will consolidate their two barber shops,
continuing the business in the Witter
house annex. 1t is their intention to
operate three chairs, and more when
the business requires it. The con-
solidation will take place Monday
morning. The new firm desires to
announce to the public that they
will use every endeavor to have a
strictly sanitary barber shop. Fresh
towels will be used for each customer:
razOrs, cups, brushes, ETC., will be
Sterilized and antiSepticS used in
every way possible to make their shop
one of the most popular and sanitary
ones in the city. Messrs. O'Dell and
Burt have been in the city a good
many years, they are we'll known as
first class harbers, are young men,
and they have the good will of every
one who enjoys their acquaintance
By the consolidation they save the
rent, light, and fuel necessary to keep
up one place. We wish the new frm
all prosperity.

NO BOATING BELOW CITY

The indications seem to point to a
great deal of low water this year,
and the proposed channel in the
Wisconsin river below the city may
not be opened. 1t was planned by a
number Of yachting enthusiasts to
open deeper channel through the
island below the city so that motor
boat could be operated between this
city and South Centralia. A number
of them went to the places where
work would have to be done and did
what they could with the few tools
they had to work with. 1t was
planned to dynamite the rocks and
snags out Of the path Of the new
channel, but the water seems to be
getting too low to have the work
practicable and it will probably be
given up. This would have made a
good run for the motor boats, and
other bOaters would have had a better
water way for rowing, but under the
present circumstances, the project
will in all probability, be given over,
at least for this year.

WHERE FISH ABOUND

J. G. Love, division freight and
passenger agent Of the Milwaukee and
ST. Paul railroad, returned toda =
from South Dakota, where he has
made trips through Lyman county to
prove up on lands he holds there.
While in South Dakota Mr.. Love,
accompanied by F. S. StrOhbehn, OF
Wagner, S. D., made trip to Lake
Andes for few days fishing. But it
was not necessary to remain at this
famous fishing place long to get
satisfaction.
The fishermen went to Thomas
Brazil'S fishing resort on the lake and
securing boat, went out for bass,
armed with spoon hooks. They re-
manned on the lake six hours and
secured ITO black bass, weighing
ninety pounds. Some fifteen or
sixteen of these choice fish weighed
q pounds each, the largest fish OF the
lot weighing pounds. Mr.. Love
asserts that there is no place ia four
states where a better catch may be
secured than at Lake Andes, and he
has secured large amount Of infor-
nation about the fishing at Lake
Andes. which he is distributing at

FARM CROP In STATE
Reports Of Crop Conditions
Throughout the State Look
PROMISING.


The last weekly reports from the
stations of the United States weather
bureau throughout the state show
that the crop conditions on the farms
drought the country are more. favor
able for good crops than was thought
generally. 1t was believed that the
over amount of rain which has fallen
this summer would tend to decrease
the crops, and in fact it has done so
to some extent, but not so much as
would be generally believed. These
reports come from observers all over
the country and may be taken as
exact.
The past week is considered a quite
favorable one, despite the cool wealth ct
in the first part, and growth of vege-
tation was not checked by this.
Winter wheat and rye are now about
harvested, and the crop promises to
be the same as ordinarily, and the
quality of grain is good. Most of the
oat and barley crop will be harvested
this coming week, and the amount of
grain that will result from this years
labors with this grain is about up to
the standard, though there is some
| complaint of rust and lodging in the
oat crop. Spring wheat and rye are
| fine this year. In the corn fields as a
rule, the outlook is none too favora BILE.
On high ground there will be good
crops unless something detrimntal
to it's growth turns up later, but the
low lands are not going to produce
anything but fodder, as rule. The
water covered them for too long a
space of time. and they are weedy.
Only on high sandy soil are the
potato crop indications very favorable,
as on the lower lands there will be none
or but few secured. This will be ban
ner year for hay, both tame and wild,
except on the lowest marshes. The
tame hay crop is the heaviest in years
and is nearly all made. Summer
pastures have been helped by the
heavy rains this year, and the indica-
tionS are that there will be an abund-
ance of good pastures for the stock
till late in the fall. The outlook for
tobacco in the southern part of the
state is good, and the product promises
to be of best quality. 1t has been an
ideal summer for the small stuff in
the gardens and they are looking
we'll; buckwheat and sugar beets
prom Use good output for the year.
The present outlook for the cram
berry crop is excellent, there being as
yet nothing to hurt that crop in most
parts of the cranberry districts.
Fruit is fine, and the apple trees
seem to have just an average load
this year, especially ia the fall
varieties.
