The week was slightly cooler than
usual, though the day temperatures
were normally high and generally fav-
orable for harvest operations. The
rainfall was extremely variable, rang
ing from tenth of an inch to over two
inches. Except in very small areas,
the amount of soil moisture is ample
for present needs of the staple crops.
The conditions were favorable for
finishing the harvest of hay, oats and
barley, and in the larger part of the
state these crops have been put into
shocks, stacks or barns. Threshing
barley and oats is in progress, and re-
ports of yield show fair returns. In
the spring wheat districts that crop is
ready for harvesting, with good pros
poets as to yield. The corn crop still
maintains it's high standard in all sec
lions, giving promise of more than an
average yield. The pastures are very
good in all districts, except in locali-
ties where the rainfall has been def
cient for several consecutive weeks.
Late potatoes have been benefited by
recent showers. The apple crop is do
ing fairly we'll.

Thompson Family Reunion.

One of the pleasant social events of
the season was reunion of the Thomp-
soE family last Sunday after church at
the residence of p. f. Lantz, one and a.
half miles east of Van Vert. 1t was the
first time in three years that a sister,
Mrs. j. z. Long, of Ludlow, Mo-, had
been permitted to meet with the other
members OF the family. After partaking
OF sumptuous repast consisting of all
the dellcacies and Injuries of the sea-
son prepared by the skillfnl hands of
the hostess and daughters, the after
noon was spent with music and social
chat under the beautiful shade trees on
the lawn. Care and sorrow was for a
time laid aside and good humor and
merriment reigned supreme. AS the
afternoon drew to close the family
separated to meet again the next day at
the nome OF their brother, j. B. Thomp-
son, IN Van Vert where at high noon
they were again assembled around the
festal board and doing Justice to the
good things Of this life that satisfieth
the inner man. The table was presided
over by Mrs. L. G. Thompson and Miss
Leila Thompson. After partaking of the
bounties which had been skillfully and
abundantly provided, they repaired to
the parlor and were entertained with
some excellent music rendered by Mr..
and Mrs. Chas. Gillett, of Tingley, and
Misses Leila and Ivah Thompson. At
times during the days thought of sad
ness would come for since their last
meeting, three years ago, loved and
honored mother has gone to Join that
great family reunion of God in the home
beyond. Just before separating they
sang that beautiful hymn, "God Be
With You Till We Meet Again. and
/ during the singing of that hymn the
thought occurred to the writer-which
of us will be the first called to meet
that mother in the home beyond and
whichever one Of us it may be, let us be
fully prepared.
There were twenty-five present on
Sunday and eighteen on Monday. Four
of the members of P. F. Lantz's family
We're unable to be present on Monday
on account of the pressing work of
harvest time. Mr.. and Mrs. ]. G. Long
accompanied their daughter, Mrs. Chas.
Gillett, to her home at Tingley on the
afternoon train Tuesday for short
visit. They will also visit their son Edd
at Beaconsfield before returning to
their home in Missouri.
Those present were Messrs and Mes
danes Isaiah Thompson, P. F. Lantz,
