things that would make them glad.

the poorest crop hcreabouts this year
that there has been for years. Tosthe
north and east there is scarcely my
thing. To the south and southwest
conditions are better and in some
places the grain is fine. The hot
winds are what did the business.
Sank Lake is just reminder of Its
former self, nothing more. Itssou E,
Lake Osakis, is much lower than Ae
