GRAY DAYS ARE GOOD DAYS.

These gray days are great days in
many respects. The grass in the
pastures and meadows and the win.
:er wheat and rye are growing long
roots that will help to produce abun.
cant crops next summer. And these
days afford an unusual opportunity
to complete the work Of the season,
not alone on the farms but In the
towns and cities. And they are giv-
ing the farmers stock chance to
live in the corn stalks fields longer
than ordinarily, and they are short
aning the winter and saving fuel and
!iscomforts Of zero weather which
we sometimes have before this time
of the year.
1t is now upwards of three weeks
since we have had even a freezing
temperature. Is not that great for
an Iowa November?

 It was understood between the part ners that Sorlie would return to camp Sunday evening. Monday, having failed to make an appearance, his partners suspected that something was wrong Tuesday morning they decided to row to town. On their way in, they rec Ognized their own boat which was found anchored and under water with the load of fish, but the man was miss ing. They lowed the boat to town. The next morning several men left for the scene and after a search found the remains about ten feet from where the boat had been found anchored.
