AS To The Crops.

Through the courtesy of DR.. Strick-
Ter We editor last Sunday morning en-
joyed an automobile trip through the
country, which was, indeed, very in
teresting for the reason that this is
harvest time and nothing else could be
more enjoyable than trip through
the best farming country in the state,
which is to be found in the vicinity of
New Ulm. Harvesting has been in
progress for the past week and is now
about completed. Barley and rye are
stacked and the balance of the wheat,
still standing is being cut this week.
The yield promises to be heavy. Only
few threshing reports are in and
wheat is likely to go rs blu. per acre.
No rain fell during the past week until
Saturday morning and evening when
shower passed over this vicinity
and was generally welcomed by the
farmers. Corn has headed out and is
a week or two ahead of the average
season. The farmers Of Brown county
are to be congratulated on the goo6
crops and the fine harvesting weather

"You know it is a common thing"
said a social philosopher "to find two
families of the same moderate income
living very differently, one with

short of money, and the other with
house we'll furnished and always some
thing in reserve.
"If we are the people with the scanty
house and the scanty purse we wonder
how the other people do it. The an
swer to this is extremely simple: they
do it mainly by economy and the scru-
pulous avoidance of waste.
"The other folks have money by saw
ing it, not by dribbling it away. When
they really need something they have
the money for it, and they are able to
get it when we can't, but they are able
to have the money only because they
save it. They never waste cent.
IF a l cent stamp will do they don't

Wherever a city is governed by
political machine, there you will find
systematic graft, bribery and corrup-

Under our form Of government polit-
ical organization Is as necessary FOR
cities as for the state or the nation.
The machine working for selfish inter-

interest, appeals for support Result:

of the machine are loyal some vote

There was an election held in Los
Angeles a week ago last Thursday.
BY the way, Thursday is miser-

this paper has to get into the mail
Friday afternoon. The city attorney
and council should look to it. BY this
