GATHERING GRAIN
Harvest is We'll Under Way in
this Part of the State
WHEAT WILL Be FAIR
Stearns County Promises to Show
Better Results Than Other Parts
of Minnesota

Harvest is in full swing Every
body is busy these days gathering in
the golden grain.
| Notwithstanding the long hot dry
spell, during which less rain has fallen
| than for many years. wheat is going
to be pretty fair crop hereabouts.
In fact, the record for StearnS cOun-
| ty bids to be much better than many
parts of the state. Oats are poor; SO
is barley. Rye is good. Corn, which
| needed rain badly few days ago, is
now in better condition. Saturday
night there was good rain in this
vicinity. Monday night considerable
water fell. 1t began raining
shortly before nine O'Clock and there
was steady fall of moisture until
midnight. This frightened up the
corn crop materially.
On the light soil the wheat is poor.
That is to say, the yield small. The
stalks stood not over foot high in
many places. But the heads were
we'll filled and the berry is plump.
On the sandy soil land, farmers
have practically no crop. On the
heavy clay further back from the
river the wheat is good. The yield
will be about up to the average in
those localities. while few farmers
will have better crop than they
have had for years. These farmers
have land on low, marshy soil where
in wet seasons they have poor crops.
Threshing is in progress in many
places. Some new wheat has already
been marketed and it grades high.
Jonas Ekberg, living on farm in
kandOta some six miles from Sank
Centre. brought in to The Herald
! office last week some wheat which he
had recently threshed out. 1t grew
on sandy soil. The berry is plump
and it's weight is good. Mr. Ekberg
figures on about ten to twelve bushels
to the acre from the field i'm which
this sample was grown.
Recent rains followed by the cooler
weather OF the past few days will help
to make corn fodder: and the pastures,
which have been pretty well burned
up this summer, are reviving. The
outlook is far better than it was q
few weeks ago.

The Tobey-Chapin wedding at Osak-

by the Northwestern to raise it's rates
That company, lie said, reduced its
rates to $50 and IS cts per month
after the local company established
its service, but has been unable to
secure but 400 subscribers even at
those rates. Mr.. Neill considers an
independent company good PROPOSE
ton.
In this connection, The Herald
has been given the following clipping
from the Minneapolis Journal of
July 81, dated New Richmond, Wis,
with the request that it be published:
after controversy of thirteen
months with the people of New
Richmond arFayed on one side and
the Wisconsin Telephone company,
the Bell interests i'm this state. on
the other, which involved the matter
of what was alleged to be excessive
rates for local service, Determinations
and other grievances against the
telephone company, the whole matter
has been amicably adjusted by the
purchase by the ST. Croix Telephone
company organized here about five
months ago, of the local exchange of
the Wisconsin Telephone company.
1.-THE purchase price was $4,000,
which is just $4,000 less than the
valuation fixed by the company when
negotiations were first entered into.
''SiX months ago, when the situa-
ton became acute, by concerted
action, at an appointed hour, prac-
tically severy business telephone and
many of the residence telephones
were disconnected by the subscribers,
and what has been known locally as
the telephone strike, was begun.
For six months New Richmond has
been practically without local tele-
hone service.
"But the war is now at an end,
and the local company will take pos
ession Aug. 1. AS far as known this
is the only local telephone exchange
the Bell. interests have ever sold.
They frequently buy, consolidate and
merge other systems, local and toll

Minnesota Democracy finds Itself
Squeezed Into a Corre soss
PROBLEM FOR leaders
Bourbon Lights RaCking Their Brains
to Find a Man to Head the
State Ticket
Il. Paul Special TO The Herald.

~. laui special TO The Herald.
Wanted, man to take John Limbs
place and lead the state democratic
hosts TO victory or defeat.
Lind has sailed away to Alaska leav-
ing his admirers in the dumps. They
really don't know what to do. The
state convention forced the nomina-
ton upon him regardless of his oft re-
peated statements that he was out OF
politics Their frantic appeals to
him to accept have fallen on deaf
ears
Just what democracy is going to do
about it is one of the things no fellow
can tell. Frank Day hung around st.
Paul u day or two after the conren-
ton and then hied himself away to
FairmOnt where, locked up tight in
privacy and time to think it over.
The concensus Of opinion among
democratic leaders is that the state
central committee will name some
one TO head the ticket. A few want
another convention called. In either
case there is q dilemma. Lind was
the only man who could lead the par
ty to victory. A second choice will be
Sorely handicapped. And there you
are.
Meantime the republicans are smil-
ing, but they have not quit saving
wood. They believe in working just
the same as they would have worked
had Lind headed the ticket. And
perhaps It's just as well they should,
for Minnesota voters have had such
way with them the past six years that
nothing has been certain except
death and taxes. But the sky GER
tainly does look bright 10 Ed Smith,
his helpers and the entire republican
state ticket.
There are many faces of disinterest-
ed spectators wreathed i'm smiles over
the county option affair. That cold
water tabby certainly did come back
all right. Frank Day deposited it on
tie doorstep of the republican party
but that organization fought shy of
adopting the orphaned kitten. Then
it came right back and roasted on
Frank Days doorstep and made all
kinds Of trouble for Frank and his
cohorts. The pussy is certainly an
orphan now.
Cardinal" Dick O'Connor and
Frank Day are at outs. Did you
know it? At least it looks that way.
Whether they will kiss and make up
is the question. Who'll guess the
answer? When these two fall out
