ORGANIZER r. T.. Eastman, OF the
Brown-Redwood county Y. M. C. A.
association, has collected in the
neighborhood of $3.50 for the estab-

A New Ulm special of July1Oth
says that ''For the first time in the
history of New Ulm the saloons
closed their doors at II o'clock last
night, in compliance to orders given
them by Mayor Silverson. Of the
thirty saloonkeepers only one failed
to comply with the new order, and
he was informed by the mayor that
a recurrence of the situation would
cause his license to be revoked. City
Attorney Pfaender and Chief of
Police Klause called on the OBJ
streperous saloonkeeper this after
noon, and delivered the ultimatum
of the mayor, and the outcome is
watched with interest. The mayor
is determined to put on the lid and
a few of the saloonkeepers desire to
have the law tested for their own
satisfaction. They don't seem to
realize that it is state law

In a letter to Joseph Tyson of this
city, under date of July 18th, 0. w.
Mcmillan, formerly of Redwood
Falls, but now residing near North
Yakima, Wash, says: 81 had the
fruit Inspector come up and look
over my orchard last week and he
said that | was about as free from
codling moth as any orchard he has
been in and when | told him that it
was the result of three thoro spray
ings with disperine and the rod
handled by myself he remarked that
if men owning orchards would pay
more attention to their spraying and
not trust so much to hired help we
could soon get rid of the pests.
We have been having the hot
test summer ever known in the
valley. 1t started in about July LIST
and the thermometer has registered
between 100 and 107 every day since,
and we are not getting the cool
wind until about midnight-the
wind that we got last summer about
5 or 6 p. m. Many Of the apples
are being sunburnt, and | will lose
more from that trouble than from
moths this year. My young peach
orchard is looking fine and some of
the trees have a growth of over
three feet already. | planted po-
tatoes between the trees on May
oath and last night dug out some
potatoes as large as hens egg.
Everything is coming our way. The
COW had twin calves and Mrs. Nc. S
two hens Matched out 26 chicks from
two settings of Ii eggs each. But
say, it gets pretty hot here about
noon and | don't do a thing but try
and keep cool. We have sold over
SIP worth of cherries from two
trees, besides eating all we could
at home. Our peaches are ripe.
