The first band concert of the
season Saturday night was a
decided success if the crowd on
the street was anv criterion.
State street would have to
take a back seat in a very short
time if such crowds were the
usual thing, and all the merch-
ants are working to make it a
regular thing.
The band boys are to be con-
graduated on the excellent
grade of music they gave. We
heard many compliments on
the excellence of the program
me. This was really the first
appearance of the band in con-
cert and all were certainly we'll
pleased.
Come next Saturday and en-
JOY the concert. We want ev-
eryone to enjoy the evening
with us.

FOR FLETCHER'S
Q a STO RIA

June was a freak month, ac-
c GO to the monthly report
being compiled by DR.. George
N. Chapel of the government
weather bureau and the Iowa
weather crop service.
It was the dryest June on re-
cord in this state; it had the
lowest percentage of humidity;
it possessed the least wind We
.locity; and it was marked by
the fewest number of thunder
storms.
The average rainfall was 1899
inches. This is 253 inches
less than normal and .6S less
than June, 1894. which held the
record up to this year on being
the dry June.
Estherville had the most
rainfall of any station in the
state, 5 81 inches. The lowest
maximum amount heretofore
was GOA inches, in 1903. The
least amount reported at any
station, in the state was .05 of
an inch at DEBORAH. This
again smashed a record, the
best previous minimum being
80 in 1904. June defeated all
former records in the number
of days registering so degrees
or above. June 1901, comes
nearest to equalling the past
month for 80 degree DAYS.
The report will say that the
most noticeable feature of June
was the cool weather the first
half of the month and the con.
tinuous high temperature DUR
ing the latter half. The alb
sence of electrical storms was
phenomenal.

Nature meant for the animal to restore Ia

No fertilizer is so good. But manure is unpleas-

Here we are in the eighth
month of the year A. d. 1910
soon the snow will begin to fly,
and the Coal man will begin to
hustle and tell the people how
scarce coal will be this winter,
and we will hear men saying:
Old you ever see such awful
cold weather. The world is
said to be at least six thousand
wears old; science says six mill
ion, and others say two hundred
million. but be this as it may,
we have been here less than q
hundred years, and yet have
seen the winters repeat them
selves for over eighty times and
it has always been thus, so the
very best thing we can do is to
prepare for winter, come when
it may, and our fretting about
it will not prolong it coming a
single day. That we will have
our usual cold weather is Ger
tain, and the only way to lesson
the dread is to fill the coal bin
and wood shed with fuel, and
then let the snow fall and the
winds howl.
