The Condition Of The Wheat

As is ALWAYS the case, the condition
OF the wheat at this season Of the
year is the topic of discussion.
Among the opinions given by farmers
in the city last Saturday there was
quite a difference, which of course
. may be because Of different localities,
difference in time Of seeding, the lay
Of the land, etc. There IS, as rule
less complaint from the south side
than from tie hard land on the north
side. Frank Bloomer, Of Indeperd-
ent, said that it looked as though rs
per cent Of the wheat in his township,
which is rather fiat, was gone. Anton
Ref, of Cheyenne, said that SO far as
the fiat land was concerned this was
also true in his township, but where
the land was little billy so the water
ran off of it and did not continually
freeze during the cold weather,
wheat was in much better condition.
Then again the early sowing wheat
was not nearly as badly damaged as
the late Sown. Many farmers in
town thought that about so per cent
of the wheat was winter killed.
There were other farmers who said
the wheat was damaged, but they
thought that a timely rain would
pack the dirt around the roots and
thereby save a considerable of the
wheat now thought to be dead. This
was especially the opinion of Mr.. b.
P. Unruh of Pawnee Rock. Crop
experts from the cities have been ex
amining the fields, and do not find
so much damage, but we believe the
farmer who is in the fields every day
is better posted than the expert. B.

understood by a man to mean that the
pair understood each other. but the
girl failed to make it out and was a
bit piqued. An hour after Jimmie's
departure she found a new silver purse
with S4 in it under a chair. Here was
a new mystery for the landlady to
solve. She was equal to the emergen-
cy, however. 1t was explained that
when Providence began rewarding a
reformer it kept it right up and that
she would not be at all surprised to
sec a horse and buggy driven into the
house some evening.
Jimmie never missed two calls per
week and sometimes made three. He
was eager to make mental progress.
and at some stage in the proceedings
he always INDUCED in that expressive
wink One evening he was taken to
task for it, but instead OF being cast
down he winked again and muttered
something about "pards." Sooner or
later after he left Miss Denton made
a find Of money or jewelry. One aft
ernoon a messenger left a valuable
muff at the house for her. Again it
was a new jacket. If she hadn't been
a reformer and if the landlady hadn't
been a believer in Providence the key
Of the mystery might have been soon
er grasped. As it was it seemed un-
fathomable.
Two months had passed and Jimmie
had come so near the governorship
that he had learned the alphabet down
to &c" when Providence let go of the
case and a detective took It up. The
boy called one evening and handed
out a diamond bracelet which he said
he had received for stopping a runa-
way trolley car and saving the lives
of forty people. He was praised for
his gallantry and a promise made to
keep the jewel safe for him, and Just
then the detective entered and took
him by the neck. This was practical
ly. He took Miss Denton by the neck
theoretically. When the landlady
came in and talked about the ways of
Providence she was also invited to go
along to the station house
All the piunder had been preserved.
Miss Denton and the landlady had to
get a lawyer and do a great deal Of
weeping besides to get out Of it, but
Jimmie did no weeping. He just
winked He continued to wink until
the two women took the stand against
him. and he was sentenced to the re-
form school, and then he ceased to
wink and said in a voice Of reproach
to Miss Denton:
Il fought youse understood dat
was to do all de stealin' and make a
fair divvy. What youse tink I was
doin' all dat winkin' furg"
