To Prevent Rust After Rains.

Britton Journal:-The great dam
age done to our crops last fall by
black rust and the prediction which
is made by some that the rust will take
the crop again this year if rain pre-
walls, makes anything in the shape
Of a preventative intensely interesting
The method which we will undertake
to describe was explained by Mr..
Lysander Woodland, who has had
experience in it's use, and can vouch
for it's effectiveness. His method
was to secure rope 200 feet long,
each end to be taken by man on
horseback, and the rope dragged
across the field to be treated. 1t will
be readily seen that the rope will
knock most of the water off
the stalks of grain, and
of course the rope should be heavy
enough to have it's effect. Mr. {.
Woodland tells us that quarter
section OF land may be treated in
this mannar in about two hours. 1t
is certainly worth trying.

Revision of Freight Rates.

A series of tables are being pre-.
pared for the coming investigation
by the State railroad and warehouse
commission showing the existing
rates on first class freight AID on
the commodities. including lumber,
wheat, coarse grains, cattle, hogs,
sheep, wood and coal. These tables
cover all parts of the State and all
distances, and in connection with
each rate is given the corresponding
rate according to the Illinois and
Iowa distance tariffs, for the same
article and the same distance. The
tables will also show at a glance in
each case whether the Minnesota
distance or distributing rate is
higher or lower than the rate in
other states, and by what per cent.
These tables, when finished, will
be distributed to all the Minnesota
railroads.
The commission, in citing the dis
tance tariffs of Iowa and Illinois, in
dicates that it considers those state
made rates to be fair ana proper
for comparison. It will be incum-
bent on the railroad officials, where
the Minnesota rates are found to be
higher, to show why they should be
so. The State has no distance tariff
law, and it is not believed that the
commission intends to revise rates
strictly on that basis. In fact, the
Legislature, in ordering the investi-
CATION, recommended that both
distance tariffs and distributing rates
be kept in force, but that the differ
ence between those rates be reduced
to not more than five per cent. The
need of some special distributing
rates in southern Minnesota was
recognized, in order to give the twin
cities chance to compete with
Chicago in that territory Princeton
Union.

HICKS PREDICTS FOR AUGUST.
There Will Be Some Fierce Storms
During the Month.

Rev. Irl r. Hicks, in his monthly
weather forecast for August has the
first storm period due from the fourth
to eighth, with it's enter on the sixth
Falling barometer increased humid
ity and warmth, with growing cloudl
ness will appear as early as the.
fourth. Storms and thunder gusts
will quickly follow in western sections

the country. Rising barometer and
cooler weather will follow about sew

A reactionary storm period is GEN.
trail on the eleventh and twelfth.
The indications are for only moderate
barometric aud other changes at this
time. Threatening clouds with thun'
der-gusts may show themselves over
scattering localities, but generally the
weather will remain warm and dry.
The third storm period is central on
the seventeenth, reaching from the
fifteenth to twentieth. Storms will
be forming in the western regions as
early as fourteenth and fifteenth and
during sixteenth to nineteenth every

eastward over the country. Thunder
and lightning will mark these storms
with great emphasis. A decidedly
high barometer and change to cooler

There is danger that these very sud-

THE CARNIVAL.
Good Crowds in Spite of Time of
Year.

lhe Cash Carnival Co. were
delayed at Graceville, and did
not arrive here Monday as
intended. They came in Tues
day morning, however, and all
SHOWS were ready to start
that evening.
The crowd attending the
carnival had chance Wednes
day to see the free attractions
offered by the carnival com
pany, and to say they were
satisfied is putting it very
mildly.
Chas Ledegar, the Original
Flying Dutchman, has captur-
ed the crowd completely with
his tight rope and bounding
rope work. Ledegar is a good
deal of comedian and a great
deal of an acrobat, and by com
binlng the wo, he is an enter
tainer par excellent.
Our illustration on another
page shows Ledegar in only a
few of his poses, but the pic
ture conveys only very in
complete idea of the entertain
ment which he furnishes. You
can see him at 400 or at 1880.
Another star performance,
tho it takes only moment, is
Laymon's jumping the gap ON
a bicycle. The steep incline
on which the trick is perform
ed is set up near the Ameri-
can House. Laymon rushes
down this incline at tremend-
Gus speed, until by a slight
upturning of the tarck he is
sent hurting thru the air, land
ing safely across the gap on
the track forty feet away. The
stunt requires consummate
skill, and Laymon does it in
a way to win the plandits of
the crowd.
Of course Capt. Harry Fra
lick's dive from ninety foot
ladder into a net is the most
spectacular and dangerous of
the free attractions. His effort
yesterday was accomplished
with apparent ease, as if the
least miscalculation were not
a matter of life and death.
The balloon ascension We'd
nesday night was accomplish
ed all right, but the balloon
burst just beforeP urpura left it.
