AVERAGE JULY WEATHER
-
SHOWS A DECENT MONTH
Weather Man Proves by Figures that
Midsummer Period Is Rather Wet
and Not Oppressively Hot.

What has happened may happen
again, but the weather bureau does
not have much confidence in the ability
of the Minnesota climate to duplicate
itself. and does not hesitate to say so.
Neyerthe less, the summary OF July
weather for the past fifteen years, is
sued yesterday, by I. s.. Outram, sec
tion director of the. weather bureau, is
interesting as retrospect even tho it
may throw no light upon the future.
On paper the mean temperature OF
July, classed as one Of the hot months
of the year, is not imposing. The aver
age of the July temperatures for the
last fifteen years is only ~ degrees, the
temperature which the majority Of
homes thru the winter months.
The warmest July in fifteen years,
that of 1901, averaged only FIVE de-
grees above this, II degrees. This
Same month of July, 1901, holds the
record in more ways than one. Not
only did it have the highest mean tenn
perature, but it's twentieth, day, when
She hottest July day in the record.
The coolest July since 1890 was that
of 1891, with mean temperature Of
sc degrees. The seventh day of that
month was the coolest single July day
Of the ffteen-year period. Its maximum
temperature was A degrees.
July is a fairly wet month in the
long run, as is evidenced by the fac
that it's mean precipitation for fiftee1
years is Ala inches. The greatest Jul,
precipitation came in 1892. when tn
total rainfall for the month was 11.8
inches. The dryest July was that O
1894 when only 20 inch of rain fell
The greatest rainfall in twenty-fou
hours came between 8 am. and 8 pm
Of July 1921, 1892.

IOWA STATE OFFICER
SAYS CUMMINs IS IT
w. B. Martin, the Hawkeye Secretary
of State Declares There's No Cues
ton About It.

w. B. Martin, secretary of state Of
Iowa, and wife were visitors in St.
Paul and Minneapolis yesterday. They
arrived in Minneapolis first and then
went to St. Paul, where an hour or
more was spent in calling on Governor
J. A. Johnson and inspecting the new
Minnesota capitol.
"There is no question about Gov
ernor Cummins' nomination in Iowa, -
said Mr.. Martin, in discussing the po-
litical outlook in his state.
cit is probable that in the next
campaign the subject of insurance will
be given considerable attention in
Iowa, as I understand it will in Min
nesota. The legislature has a commits
sion of FIVE members, two from the
senate and three from the house,
which is Investigating infinitely insur-
ance methods in vogue in our state.
The commission is daily at work, but is
closely guarding what it unearths. I
understand it is the commission s plan
not to make its report public until the
meeting of the legislature next winter
"The commission, will not only re,
port on methods Of operation of insur-
ance companies in Iowa, but will also
recommend some form Of standard life
insurance policy that will be more in
the interests of the policyholders. 49,

BIGGEST CORN FARM.
Seasons Yield Is 3oo,ooo BusheIs-A
 Small Army of Men Employed.

Webster, Ia.-The largest corn-grow. ing farm in the world is Adams 15,000- acre ranch near Odebolt. His 105 men, who are regular employees, have just finished husking the 100000 bushels of the cereal. The crop is all cut and husked from the shock. The stocks will be shredded for the fat cattle be- fore spring.
 Thirty-seven double stalk cutters were used to bind the corn in the field last fall. Mules were employed almost everywhere to do the heavy draught work on the farm, and there are over two hundred of these animals kept there constantly. MT. and Mrs. Adams and family are at present at their win ter home in Chicago, and the farm is i in the hands of it's manager.
 With the exception of a large num- Der of feeders which are purchased every fall no cattle are raised on the big farm except enough milch COWS to keep the help supplied with milk.
 Last winter MT Adams had 5000 sheep brought from his North Dakota ranch for feeding, and it is announced that he will do it again this winter as soon as the present yardful of cattle has been marketed.
 The affairs at the farm are conducted with as much system as any large bus mess office in this city. There is a main office and headquarters where the manager of the farm has his desk. It is here that MT. Adams himself spends large part of his time in summer The farm is divided into sections and each part is under the direction of a subforeman and worked by his force of men.
 All the houses of the employees are located in one place near the center of the farm, making a small town. A school house Is also erected here for the children of the workers.
 The farm and it's methods are a rev elation to the visitor. Adams is an enthusiast for good roads, and all through the place he has built hand some driveways.
 There is another farm in Sac county Iowa, which contains 5000 acres. The land there is not all titled. as on the Adams ranch, and hence it is not of so general interest to the public. It is. though, among the record-breakers in this state of acreage owned by one man in one contiguous piece.

.om the New York Herald.

From the New York Herald.
 M. Clement Armand Falllleres was born at Mezin, in the department of the Lot ct Garonne, November 6. 1S41, and represent ed that constituency In the national chamber of deputies from 1876 to 1890. He held the positions of minister of the in- terior in the Duclerc cabinet from 1882 to 1883 and 1S87 He was minister of public instruction in the Ferry cabinet 1SS3-1SS5, and 1889 1890, and minister of justice 1SS7- 1888 and 1890-1S92.
 He was elected senator In 1890 and re- elected to that office in 1ST When M. Loube became President of France M. Fallieres was chosen to succeed him as president of the French Senate. Curiously enough, though M. Falheres has almost continuously held office during his politi- cal career, the general public knows very little about him, nevertheless he is one of the most remarkable examples of that type of politicians who have done good service to the state though. In d some what unostentatious manner.
 When M. Carnot became president of France. the first man he thought of as premier was M Fallieres, and he asked him to form ministry. In this, however. he was unsuccessful, though he ultimate ly served in three cabinets during M. Carnots term of office There Is a dis tinct analogy between M Fallieres and NJ. Loubert, for, like the president of the republic, he was trained to politics in d provincial town, of which he was elected Mayor before becoming a deputy. He first won fame as a member of the bar. in that obscure little town and when he eventually came to Paris he soon won distinction in the chamber, not only for the eloquence and ease with which he spoke, but also for the sound common sense which has so greatly distinguished him in his career.

Decline in French Manners.

From the London Daily Mail
 Paris dancing masters are lamentine the decline of French elegance in the art. They assert that the French are losing tLer old habits of politeness, and, as q dancing nation, are certainly declining.
 They express especial horror at the late fashion in the ballroom, which is a revi- val of an old habit. Ladies, it appears. are taking to carrying dainty little snuff boxes in their hand with their fan The ladies offer their boxes to each other. and. as few are yet adopts in the art of snuff taking. the courtesy is always followed by a chorus of sneezing.
