DEATH OF MRS. BAILEY.
One of the Old Residents of Audubon
Passes Away at Oklahoma City.

A message received last Sunday
July Is, announced the death of Mrs.
Sarah E. Bailey at the home of her
daughter Mrs. d. A. Railsback at
Oklahoma City that morning. Mrs.
Bailey was taken south in October
last year hoping that the warmer eli
mate might be better for her and help
her back to health again. She had
suffered one or two strokes of paraly-
sis and another recently was more
than her strength would stand.
Mrs. Bailey was born in Sangamon
county, Illinois, in 1887. She came
to Iowa thirty-seven years ago, and
with the, exception of four years in
Missouri, she has lived in the state
ever since. In the spring following
the foundation of Audubon, they
settled here where they have lived all
the time. For some time before that
they lived in Guthrie county. Her
husband NJ. d. Bailey died five years
ago. The children consist of four
sons and three daughters. Elmer and
f. l.. live in Audubon, another son at
Sioux City, and the other at Colorado
Springs. Besides Mrs. Railsback
Mrs. DR.. Lass lives at Hull, Iowa,
and Mrs. Fulton at Extra. Elmer
left on the train at noon Monday to
meet his sister on the way with the
remains, and they reached here from
the south Wednesday morning. The
funeral was held Wednesday from the
Evangelical church of which she had
been member these later years, Rev.
c. d. Wendell preaching the sermon.
From an obituary prepared by Mr..
Wendell we take the following:
About 43 years ago she was con
verted and united with the Nj. T..
church where she held membership
until five years ago when with her son
Elmer she went to the coast. There
she united with the famous church OF
the Nazarines, in Los Angeles, Cal.
But upon returning to again make

Suggestions for the Housewife.

In Isabel Gordon Curtis's helpful
paper entitled. 1.-The Progress of a
Housewife, " in the JULY DELINEAToR,
she gives some useful hints as to how
to make the best of vegetables.
Root vegetables, such as beets,
turnips, carrots or parsnips, should
have moist, dirty roots and fresh
tops. If the roots are very clean and
the tops cut away, you may be sure
the market man has tried to freshen
them. The smaller these vegetables
are, the more tender. Parsnips and
carrots require scraping, except when
they are young and tender. Turnips
should be pared, while the skin of
beets should not be broken or the tops
cut more than two inches above the
beet, otherwise they will lose color
and sweetness.
When buying Lima beans, choose
green, juicy pods with small, finely
yeined beans. Cook for one hour
and a half in just enough boiling
water to cover. Add salt when near
ly done. Drain off part of the water,
season with pepper, salt and butter,
and send to the table piping hot.
String beans are cooked in the same
wav after being strung and snapped.

CLIMATE AND CROPS
Report From Iowa Weather Bureau
Monday July l6, 1906.

From Monday to Saturday the aver
age temperature was about the nor
NAL for the midsummer period. The
cool wave Saturday night and Sun
day afforded agreeable relief from
oppressive warmth and humidity. The
rainfall was variable, ranging from a
trace at many stations to cOpious
showers in widely scattered localities.
Generally the rainfall has been de-
ticient for the first half of July, but
the supply of moisture in the soil is
ample as yet for corn and small grain
crops. The corn crop has made rapid
growth in all districts. The more
advanced fields are showing tassels
at the normal height, and even the
late paintings give promise of IL good
crop.
The hay harvest is well advanced
and conditions have been generally
favorable for securing an extra quail
ity of forage. In the southern part
of the state the harvest of oats, rye,
and winter wheat is nearly completed
and in the northern half early oats
and barley are ready for the reapers.
Spring wheat is ripening, with vari-
able condition as to stand and dam
age by rust. Potatoes, vegetables and
the late berry crops are doing fairly
well, the apple crop is about as pre-.
viously reported.

DESTRUCTIVE HAIL STORM.
Much Damage Done by Storm on
Monday Down Near Atlantic.

The Atlantic Telegraph of yesterday
reports a severe electric storm in that
vicinity Monday afternoon: The
storm passing over this section Mon
day was one of the worst seen in these
parts this season though it was not so
bad here as in other sections. North
and east of here it was much more
severe. There was much damage done
by lightning and hail in some places,
even at this point, there was some
hail mixed with the rain that fell in
torrents so dense that l:42 inches fell
in twenty minutes. At Brayton the
lightning struck one horse of a three
horse team owned by Chas. Jensen
and driven by Ralph Jensen and
killed it, but did not affect the other
two horses, though the driver was
stunned from the effects of the shock.
A corn crib belonging to Mr.. Nelson in
the same section was struck about the
same time and completely destroyed.
A hay shed owned by Mr.. Anderson
north of town was struck by lightnin.
but no damage done, save for the rip
ping of some shingles from the roof.
A tree at the south edge of the city
was splintered by the Lightning, and

seemed to be at its worst just east o.

who arrived on the trains report the
corn fields east of here in a bad shape

there was but little hail, but the rair
fell so densely that some corn was
washed out. There was but little hay
down and not much damage was done
in this direction, but some oats in the
stack and shock were so badly beaten
by the force of the elements that the
grains were shelled out of the heads
onto the ground, and altogether the
storm may be said to have been one
of the most destructive that visited
these parts this season.

SOLID TRAIN OF LAND BUYERS
Containing Nine Special Cars Lett
Kansas City For Texas, We'd
nesday Morning.

For the past eighteen months great
nnbiicity has been given the Texas
Panhandle country. This has been
hrouoht about from the fact that the
great cattle pasture of that country Is
now n thing of the past. Formerly
one-half of the domain of Texas be-
lonoed to the state and was known as
school lands. These were leased for
a long term of years to the large cattle
ranchmen who fenced thousands and
even millions of acres in great pas
tures, The whole country was monop-
olized in this way. 1t was known as
the home of the cattle men. A farmer
had no show of getting foothold In
that country. When these leases ex-
pired something over year ago the
state refused to renew them. rms
drove the cattle men out OF business
and opened up this grand and fertlle
country for settlement. The railway
companies lost no time in taking ad-
vantage of the situation. Wide-awake
land firms bought this land in tracts
of several hundred thousand acres,
subdividing the land and selling 1t on
in section lots. w. FL. Netf and co.
one of the most aggressive firms in
this line of business, early last spring
in connection with st. Paul people
purchased several hundred thousand
acres. Their business has grown to
such enormous proportions In the
past four months that 1T has been
necessary for them to engage a solid
yestibule train, including dining car
with service by the celebrated Fred
Harvey company. Meals are served
at so cents each. The first special
train by this firm left Kansas City at
1890 o'clock Wednesday morning on
the 18th inst, containing nine special
cars, running on schedule time to
Hereford Texas, which is situated In
the heart of the Panhandle, at clock
Thursday morning. Arriving at
Hereford this firm will convey its
customers to the land by means OF
twenty-five spans of horses, spring
wagons and line of automobiles.
On reaching the land it has hotel
accommodations for 300 men at time.
Nearly every man who sees these
lands makes a purchase of one or
more sections-the land virtually sells
at SIGHT to the man who is fortunate
enough to have ready money and is in
the market for a tract of good farm
ing land. The soil is 4 rich loan
from three to five feet deep, with a
clay subsoil uaderlaid with an in
exhaustible sheet of water. The
rainfall is ample, for the last six
years being an average of twenty six
inches. The crops look splendid
throughout the Panhandle. Wheat
has been harvested and is in shock;
alfalfa is selling in the local market
for $l3 per ton. 1t will pay all those
interested in the purchase of farm
lands to investigate the conditions
that now exist throughout that cOun-
try. The next excursion will be run
on Tuesday the seventh of August.

and will be pleased to have you go
with us. 1t will be the finest time of

grains can be grown. We are the

farmer said the other day that to

that his brother in Day county, South
