Several of the Journal subscribers

do not receive their favorite paper
regularly. The Garneill list is care
fully written each week and promptly
placed in the postoffice here. The
distance between here and Garneill Is
only six miles, and there is no pos.
sible way for the papers to 20 astray
while in transit. If there is any
trouble or delay in the future, sub
scribers Will confer favor upon the
publisher by notifying him of the

The rain for several days past has
delayed threshing considerably. The
farmers do not seem anxious to
thresh anyway, owing to the low
price of wheat. Those who have
stacked their grain are not worrying
over the wet spell, but those who
have their grain in shock will expert
ence some loss by the rain. 1t is al
ways the safest way to stack the
grain in any year, and it is the most
economical in the long run, AS fall
blowing can be done III the fields when
the grain is stacked, and it is cheaper
to thresh out of the stack than from
the shock. i.
Buffalo, our neighbor on the west,
will have big celebration on We'd

gram of sports has been arranged.
There will be horse races, bucking
contests, athletic sports, dancing and

Buffalo will have better weather
than prevailed during the two days
celebration in Judith Gap. See the
big ad of the Buffalo event in this
week s Journal.
