During the warm weather Of last

dry, and was beneficial to crops turnout
the state. iv4-'..' S.s-7|I5: Y :. - 2,
Crops in the state at large, from all
reports, are in really excellent condi-
tion. Altho the present is the critical
ia, everything indicates that only I'M
foreseen calamity, such as hurricane
covering a wide extent Of country, or
a prolonged rainy period, can now pre-
vent South Dakota from raising what
will perhaps, be the greatest crop in

Some traces Of rust were found over

Corn Looks Good. ,-.-.'
Corn was very backward in the early
part of the season, owing to cool wealth

days or two weeks has pushed this
crop ahead very rapidly. Farmers in
many parts of the state who had given
up all hope of being able to raise a
! crop Of corn this year, now say there
is every prospect that their corn will
! yield better than for several years.

Missouri river, altho newly developed,
has had fully as much rain this season
as the older part Of the state east of
the Missouri river, and the crops of

most certain to be of the bumper kind.

Washington, July 16.-Gambling in
the Panama canal zone Is carried on to
such an extent that it rivals Monte Car
10, according to the statement Of James
E. Smith, editor of the Panama Jour
nal, who has just returned here after
living in Panama for six months. s
perhaps, due to the lack Of any
thing else to pass away the, tedious
hours of government employees on
the isthmus are turning the canal strip
into veritable Monte Carlo,' said Mr..
Smith. "Many Of the men have taken
to gambling, which evil already has
brought ruin to many young men and
will without doubt bring about shame
and disgrace on many others. o.@ 49,.
"Colon and Panama are overrun with
gamblers, whose dexterity in games Of
chance enables them to fleece the canal
employees on every. hand. AS the
gambling houses are beyond the Ameri'
can territory the card sharps have: no
difficulty in securing licenses and police
protection. There are but few hotels
or restaurants In either Of those Tscities
which do not permit poker playing and
other games Of chance. .,&.ss
"After the clerks lose all they pos:
sess they borrow money at high rates Of
interest and squander it playing polk
or: Some Of them owe salaries fol
three months ahead. Finding them
selves in this condition they become
discontinued and then they reach the
stage where they are untrustw orthy. }
