GRAIN IS NOT READY FOR BIND
Err, EXCEPT SMALL PER
CENT or BARLEY.

Devils Lake. ". D.. Aus. 11.-Any-
one who laborers under the impress
sion that damage has been done by the
recent rains which have soaked the
ground since the first Of the month
breaking all records for August, is
mistaken. That Is the information
given out by those in position TO
know.
In fact just the opposite Is the case.
Late crops have been benefited, to
great extent by the moisture.
Generally speaking there Is little, II
any grain In Ramsey county on this
section. ready for the harvester at this
time. There Is a small percentage Of
early barley that could be cut but
nothing is suffering In the field.
There may be a little grain near
Devils Lake, which could be cut" said
Dan Brennan this morning, for the
crop near the city Is farther advanc-
ed than in other sections. owing TO the
difference in rainfall. 1t will take a
very short time for the fields to dry
out and be in readiness for the bind
ers before the wheat crop is ready
to be cut"
The potato crop has shown wonder
full Improvement during the past ten
days as well as other garden truck.
In the opinion Of many the August
rains OF the past couple Of years will
undoubtedly result In an increased
acreage OF potatoes and the like. It is
conceded that it win be only natter
of a short time before more attention
Is paid to this line of agriculture.

Section Men Robbed.

Finley, N, d., Aug 1l.-Sometime
Friday afternoon burglars broke into
the bunk house OF the italian rail-
road section men and felonlously ex-
tTacted therefrom two 500 bills, and
$50 In change. twe suits Of clothes,
some shirts. shoes. and ten loaves OF
bread. A complaint was entered and
a warrant issued. but John Doe and his
pals had succeeded in making their
whereabouts a mystery, and up TO date
there has been nothing found-not
even the crust of the bread. 1t is re-
ported that the bunk house at sharon
had been robbed on the same day and
quite a haul made there. There must
be gang who mako 1t their business
TO rob the "nago" section men, as the
trick seems TO have been turned at
number Of other places before.

Miss Lillian Topping, matron of the
Florence Crittenton home left the city
last evening for a point in Iowa, es-

since her residence here.
From q story that was rumored early
in the week, 1t is understood that
Mise Topping's charge is a young
woman who came here early last fall
at the beginning of the school year to
work. Not long after her arrival here,
1t is said that she met we'll known
young man in the city, who comes Of
a prominent family, and the case which
may be brought to light soon. grew out
Of the intimacy that developed from
that acquaintance.
1t is understood that for q period of
about eight months the matter has been
kept under cover and that an appeal
was in some way made to certain
parties in the city who interested Miss
Topping. An effort has been made to
have the young man make certain pro-
visions in the matter. but it was re-
ported that he declined and that an
appeal was made to his family, which
met with failure, and that Miss Top
ping has now taken the young woman
back to her home in Iowa, where an
effort wilf- be made to do something
to relieve any disgrace that may fol-
low
When questioned about the matter
two days ago, Miss Topping asked that
the matter not be published until after
her departure with the girl for Iowa.
She went last night and developments
in the case are expected within the
next few days.

r. Mckenzie, of Bemidji, president
and secretary Of the new state recla-
nation board, were here Friday and
Saturday, inspecting the piece of
state land selected by the local COM
mercial club for the experiment in
clearing, The piece selected, which
is along the Great Northern track,
about five miles west of town, met
their approval, and the contract was
let to Wallace Merrill at $25 per acre.
All the trees will be cut, the roots re-
moved and the land plowed on twen-
ty acres, so that it will be in shape
for crop next spring.
The land will be offered for sale
this fall, and the purchaser can get
it by paying Is per cent of amount

for the balance The land is an ex
cellent piece of soil and at these
terms most anyone can afford to buy

CROPS LOOKING FINE

Reports from all parts of the coun-
ty are to the effect that crops never
looked better at this time of the year
The same is true also as to the crop
conditions in the entire Red River
Valley. Not only is the stand of grain
heavier, but it is also farther ad-
Vanced than is usually the case at
this time. The abundant rains in
May and in June and warm weather
are conducive to rapid growth. With
such bright prospects for a bumper
crop, there is no wonder the farmers
are smiling their blandest and broad
est smiles. If the crop now growing
can be safely harvested, it will sur
pass the famous '95 crop-and will
bring a great deal more money. A
few localities report rather much
moisture but in the vicinity of War.

WARREN CITIZEN PASSES AWAY

John E. Halvorson, we'll known
citizen of this place, died suddenly al
his home on Monday morning from
heart failure, aged 46 years, 2 months
and 16 days.
Deceased has been in poor health
for some time yet has been able to at
tend to his duties at Oslo, where he
had employment. Last week he came
home to visit his family and get need
ed rest. But his life's course was
run, and in the early morning hours
his spirit took flight.
Mr.. Halvorson came to Warren
from Sweden about 18 years ago. He
leaves to mourn him a devoted wife
and four children, their names being
Mrs. Selma Johnstone, of Thief River
Falls, and Annie, Esther and Gladys,
who are with their mother. He is sur
vived also by his old father and mo-
ther in Sweden. Deceased thought a
great deal Of his family and was al
ways kind to them.
The funeral was held from the
home on Wednesday forenoon and
was conducted by Rev. r. 0. Chelgren.
To those who mourn, this community
extends it's heartfelt sympathy and
may He who is the friend of widows
and orphans comfort them in their af-

WARREN WILL CELEBRATE The GLORIOUS FOURTH!
LARGE PURSES
EVERYTHING FREE

cal grades TO count fve-sixths. We
desire to gradually raise the require.
ments and make it mean more and
more to graduate from the Warren
schools.
Some who have taken school gar
dens are not keeping them as clean
as they should. IN all probability
those who are careless in this respect,
are poor workmen wherever they
work. The boys and girls who do
the little things just right will be the
men and women who can demand the
best places at the largest salaries,
while the others must accept the in.
ferior positions.
In accordance with the require
ments of the Putnam law, we plan to
have in connection with our regular
school work what we choose to call a
"Short Course" designed especially
for the benefit of those boys and girls
who are unable to commence school
until Nov. LIST, and who must leave
school April list. This course will in
clude Manual Training, Agriculture,
Farm Arithmetic, Writing, Spelling,
Commercial Law and we hope to in
clude enough Bookkeeping to help the
boy to attend to the business affairs
required on the farm. This sShort
Course" will be planned to fit those
who take it. We not not wish to make
the pupils fit the course.
We hope that many OF the country
boys and girls may avail themselves
of the opportunities offered by this
course.
The best way for the country dis
tricts surrounding Warren to secure
the industrial work to be offered dur
ing the coming year, will be to associ-
ate with the Warren school district in
accordance with the provisions offered
in the revised Putnam law. Such as
sociation should result in mutual help
fulness to the central as well as the
associated district.
The Normal department will be
moved next year, to the rooms here
tofore occupied by the College, while
the present normal room will be used
for the work in sewing Room three
on the first floor of the high school
building is being fitted for the work
in cooking.
The text books have been moved
from the basement, those to be used
in the grades being placed in the Col
lege office in the Washington building
and the high school texts in the book
room adjoining the laboratory.
The Office is being replastered and
other much needed repairs are being
made so that everything may be in
readiness when school opens in the
fall.
