Weather quite appropriate for the
month of May still continues, and
our people are working the ground
which is in fine condition. However,
it is fully realized that moisture to
start and mature a crop is yea to come,
aud the question is asked, will it cOme
in time TO be effective?
Private information from VIII Ross
of Emmons county. North Da kota,
brings the comforting intelligence
that be is able to tide over the loss of
last year, crop without assistance and
with comparative ease. But others
less fortunate, are 10 be furnished
grain hby the county. lie understood
that thirty thousand bushels had al
ready been applied for. While
Emmons and some other counties
suffered severity last year because of
drouth, other parts of North Dakota
had good crops We are Informed
on what seems to be good authority
hat Albert Heuney, a former De
Smet boy, had last year a good crop
on a half section farm, that a large
part of the crop was fax, which sold
for . high price, and that he has sold
his farm at good figures, thus enabl
ing him to retire on a competence,
though yet a young man. We feel
sure that Albert's many Kingsbury
county friends will join us on con
gratulations, and the hope thatfuture
business ventures NAV be successful
as that OF farming in North Dakota.

A report that David Pratt was sick,

call at his home to investigate. We
found him somewhat better, able to
be up, but not able to be out of the
house. The children were also ailing,
and Mrs Pratt had her hands more
than full, Some comfort was found
in the fact that all are improving, and
if nothing new shall come to the sur

they may have health and happiness
in it for manv years.

Favor Of Sailors Team.

Basketball teams OF the United
States army and navy battled for

day night with the result that the
navy squad bested the army repre-
by the close score Of "a to
21. The teams were up in form and
attempted to show their good play
ing qualities without much success,
for the floor was slippery and they
were forced ito go slow at times to
keep from falling.
The navy was represented by the
famous "Jack Tar Ffve.s Of the u.
S. s. Hancock, and the army by the
Soldier Boys Five, of the 18th
Coast Artillery Company, of Fort
Totten, N. Y. Members Of both
teams have appeared In q number
OF games on land and water and
claim they IRE in good form. Should
they appear here on a night when
there is roller skating In the Audi
torfum, the floor might be- suitable
and some fast work would probably
result.
The attraction was q novel one.
Several hours before the game the
players exhibited themselves In uni
form. They walked about the city
taking in the sights and about 7
O'Clock they started to practice to
acquaint themselves with the court.
