IOWA CROP BULLETIN
CONDITIONS THROUGHOUT THE
STATE AS NOTED BY THE
WEATHER BUREAU.

Des Moines, Ia. Sept. 3.-The past
week was very warm and showery.
The average daily temperature was 3
to degrees above the normal. Very
heavy showers occurred ON Wednes-
day night and Thursday morning in
the central district, and copious rain
fall was reported in all except the
southwest and south central districts.
The wet weather caused some delay
in thrashing, but the rain was gener-
ally beneficial to all growing crops,
and the soil is now in good condition
for blowing. Corn has made very
good advancement Reports indicate
that with normal conditions the most
advanced fields will be practically safe
about the 25th OF September. TO rip
en- the major portion of the crop there
is need of warm days and frostless
nights till October 1st,. and a warm
week beyond that date will be very

PITrANcE FOR MISSIONS.
Bishop Johnston, In Sermon Heard BY
Roosevelt, Compares Expenditures.

Oyster Bay, N. Y, Sept. Fright
Rev. James S. Johnston, Episcopal
bishop of western Texas, delivered a
stirring address on the subject of
foreign and domestic missions" at
the service attended here Sunday by
President Roosevelt and his family.
The bishop and Rev. H. H. Washburn,
pastor of Christ Episcopal church. and
Mrs. Washburn accepted an invitation
to lunch at Sycamore Hill after the
services.
Remarking on what he regarded as
the pittance of 100000 a year,
which was all the church could col
lect for mission work, Bishop Johns
ton put the millions spent annually In
the United States navy In the same
column with the $6O,O00,000 he said
was spent annually for chewing gum
and the many times greater amount
for tobacco and liquor. The support
Of tho navy, however, he justified later
as making for peace.

TWO ACCIDENTS.
Same Horse Causes Trouble Twice in
Succession.

Edmund Howell, living near the city,
invited three of his friends to take a
buggy ride near Fremont Saturday and
they certainly enjoyed the height of
pleasure until the horse became
frightened, they say, at white cat
in the road about a mile from town.
They had just driven past another rig
and we're near the side of the road
when the horse SHE'D and ran into the
ditch, capsizing the buggy and spill
ing the occupants unceremoniously
IN heap on the dusty ground. Ed
Howell sustained the only injury with
a sprained wrist and he was quickly
taken TO the doctor where his wound
received immediate attention. The
remainder OF the crowd could not
down their jubilant spirits in spite of
their narrow escape from serious in
juries, but continued TO take the mat
ter as a Joke. The horse ran into the
fence near by but was not injured and,
after tying the broken seat TO the
slightly injured buggy, the crowd con
tinued their homeward ride in the
same good hurnor which they had
shown before the accident.

ADAMS TOWNSHIP.

Adams township is the banner go

is said that there are more gophers re-

three townships in the county. The
claim is apparently proven by the
fact that Barney Allgood, resident
of the township, has captured 300
gophers and brought their claws TO
County Auditor Doak to get the boun-

of the township, brought in 272 gopher

of the Building Trades organizations.
A committee of the horseshoets caused
considerable delay in the starting Of
the Federate Unions parade by exam
lining the feet of all the horses In line
to determine whether or not they were
union-made shoes. All horses whose
shoes did not bear the union mark
were ordered out of the line and a
number of the marshals and aides and
those who had intended riding in car
riages were forced to walk.
A feature of each parade was an en-
thusiastic band of strikers. In the
Federated Union parade, marching in
the sixth division, were a Thousand

trades parade were several thousand

Fremont, Aug. 31.-Harry one of the
twin five-year-old sons of Mr.. and Mrs
Philip Meier, northeast of town, was
kicked by a horse and seriously in
iured. With two or three other young
boys he was playing in the barn lot
where a number of horses were loose.
The boys with the exception of Harry
went into the barn and when they
came out Harry was lying on the
ground unconscious. He was carried
to the house and medical assistance
called. 1t was found that the blow
from the horses hoof had crushed the
skull on the right side above and back
of the ear, a spot about the size of
two silver dollars being. g., depressed.
