pies of wheat taken from widely separated
sections Of the northwest only Isolated traces
OF black rust shown, and in each case
the grain was too far advanced to be injured

puter.
The board of public works reported

from the one at present in effect by the
addition of one bookkeeper at 800 per
month and one assistant grade computer

additions, however, will not carry any
additional expense to the department be-
