WEATHER AND CROPS

This is an unusual season, not only
in North Dakota, but all through the
spring wheat area, including South
Dakota, Minnesota, Iowa, the Cana
dian frontier, and other sections OF
the northwest. The unusual cold OF
the month of May was followed by
intensely hot weather for period OF
ten days in June, and all the time
u persistent and whitening drought
has prevailed over the entire north
west. Conditions in North Dakota
are perhaps better than in some other
sections of the northwest. The crop
i'm this state will be short-that is
generally admitted. Wheat, barley
and early grains have suffered heavy
damage. With favorable weather
from now on, flax, corn, potatoes and
later crops should mature fair yield.
The wheat crop of the state is
heavy producer of revenue and
good share of this normal revenue
will be cut off.
Fortunately, the farmers of the
state are pretty fairly fixed to stand
short crop, except in some parts OF
the state where there is large new
population, that depends upon this
years crop. And, happily, too, the
crops OF this new section are better
than in the older and weather. Sec
lions OF the state. So that there is
some good fortune III what seems
general misfortune. And the people
of the state are optimistic and not
discouraged by conditions which are
extremely unusual and practically un-
preceden1ed in the state.
There are some suggestions that
are not out OF place, with reference
to the unusual conditions. One Of
them is that good farming stands ad-
verse conditions much better than
poor farming, and the crops that are
well put in and cared for will stand
much more hardship than crops lily
put in. Another suggestion Is that
more attention will and should be
paid to the methods suggested for the
cultivation of the soil in the semi
arid belt. Plenty of rain ordinarily
falls in the western part of this state
to mature a. CROP but it must be
conserved, and not be permitted to
run off into the streams and coulees
and to evaporate readily from uncul-
tivated fields.
North Dakota soil has wonderful
recuperative qualities and with favor
able weather from now on, there will
yet be a great change on conditions.
But it is not to be denied that the
total crop will be considerably below
the average. And in this state OF
facts, what is needed is individual
economy and care in expenditures;
a general paying of obligations as far
as possible, refraining from un'
necessary and extravagant ex2endi'
lures and mutual helpfulness and
consideration as between sellers and
buyers. The banks have ample re-
sources and will doubtless take what
steps are necessary and wise to I'm
ance the business of the state, where
aid is necessary. The state and the
various counties are supplied with
ample credit and resources, and NORTH
Dakota will come through the perioc
of probable short crops with as mucf
optimism and as little hardship al
any OF the northwestern states.

lowing to The Goldendale Sentinel:
Assuming that my Klickitat friends

The apple show at Chicago was sue

was no mistake. People here in Illinois

ling remarks, yearns to 60 "out west"

and literature to those who are interest
ed. Expect to have exhibits in dozen
OF the small towns and cities, and will
advertise Goldendale apples till either
the apples are not showable or the la
grippe gets a firm hold on me. The
weather here is beastly. That we have
winner in apple land, and that people
will come to see its real value, have no
shadow OF doubt. The GOldendale

SpeCial Ocean Mail Service.

The Western Union Telegraph Com
pany has announced another innova-
tion in telegraph service called the
Special Ocean Mail Service" de-
signed to save time in foreign cores
pondence. A letter from San Fran
cisco to London takes as much time
crossing the continent as it does cross
ing the Ocean. A New York man
writing to Yokohama must post his
letter practically week before the
mail steamer sails from San Francisco
or Vancouver. The Western Union
has arranged for the use of its night
letter and other telegraphic service in
connection with out going ocean mails
so that this week of trans s-continental
time may be saved. Its New York
office will receive kilograms from any
part of the country destined to Euro
pean addresses and will forward them
in sealed specially addressed en-
velope by the first outgoing Atlantic
steamship mail. The same plan will
be followed in San Francisco. Seattle
and Vancouver for trans-Pacifc mails.
This will enable correspondence to be
dispatched from any part of the United
States for an ocean mail within few
hours of sailing time. The only charge
in addition to the usual telegraph tolls
to the ocean mail port will be five
cents for postage. kilograms should
bear the full mail address of the for
eign correspondent for whom they are
and marked Care Ocean
Mail New York" or San Francisco,
Seattle or Vancouver, as the case may
be. No charge will be made for the
address.

police court this morning when he con-
sented to roll de bones" to see wheth-
er or not he should be sent to Jail for
five days as the result of having come
over to this side of the river yester-
day to get some booze. Police Magis-
trate c. j. Smith, after talking over the
fellows case with the officers who
made the arrest, decided that he would
simply order him out of town. He then
had Nose brought in and formally ar
raigned before him. Putting on his
most severe air land he has it when
occasion demands), he lectured the
negro about his well known bad habits
and wound up with a query as to
whether or not he wou1d like to shoot

said he was all out of practice and
that he hadn't rolled the bones for
more than year.

AS a joke the magistrate finally made
bargain with the negro. 1t was to
shoot a game of craps to decide wheth-

Nose won, he was to have his free
