Aberdeen. S. D., Aug ga crop ex-
pert from Minneapolis, who went over
the country north of this city and re-
ported that the wheat is rusting badly
gave an opinion directly opposite to
that expressed by men in this city who
have spent twenty-five years in the
wheat fields of Brown county. While
they do not deny that there may be
some rust, they declare that its effect
will scarcely be noticed in early wheat
for the reason that early wheat is now
in the hard dough stage and generally
beyond the influence of rust. Farmers
are glad to see the market advance,
but they object to such reports.

other fields are too small to expect any

more promising than year ago. Po-

Catch Numerous Fish.

New York, July 2S.--Many New Workers went fishing Sunday. One of the most popular of edible fish, the La fayette, which every year inhabits the mouth of the Hudson, is now in New York waters in countless thousands Beginning Friday and lasting all day Saturday and Sunday the Hudson rivei from the Battery to One Hundred and Twenty-fifth street had been simply alive with lafayettes.
 Every pier along the water front has been lined with fishermen, fisher boys and fisher women. Such lot of fish has seldom before invaded the river. The lafayettes bit anything. The la fayette is what is known as a pan fish and few are longer than five inches The average is four. The lafayette is one of the most vocacious of small fish and one of the most delicious as far as edible quality Is concerned, for those who caught a mess Saturday were back again Sunday for more. The strings caught seem almost in credible, but there are few and by no means record one score:
 Alexander Muir. 622 in three hours; William Haubner, 845 in four hours; Matt Richardson, 771 in five hours; Walter Dalton, 612 in three hours;I William Telts, no in thirty minutes.
 One man had more than 1000, andl although tightly strung, the exhibilI was nearly eight feet long.
 You could not see anything but fisnI six inches deep. A woman all alone| got 500 and sold them to neighbors.
