In this column three weeks ago
was published an item regarding one
Jennie Foster having been arrested at
Long Island. New York. on the charge
of using the mails to defraud. The
tenor of the article. which it is I'M
necessary to reproduce in full. was
that the person so charged with using
the mail to defraud vas the same
Mrs. Jennie Foster, formerly resi-
dent of Alberta, and formerly the
wife of James w. Foster. 1t now
appears that the article was wholly
false in so, much;as 1t related to the
Mrs, Foster who was formerly resi-
dent of Alberta. and the article re-
ferred to in SO far as it in any way
Connects the Mrs. Jennie Foster re-,
teeeRtiyys resident Of Alberta. with
the Mrs. Jennie Foster arrested in
New York. is wholly untrue. The
Mrs. Jennie Foster who is known to
The residents of Alberta was formerly
Jennie Boyed and lived during the
earlier part of the winter of 1912 at
Big Stone City. S. D.. whence she
removed to Alberta where she married
James w. Foster and from whom she
was divorced Dec. IA. 1912, on the
ground of cruel and inhuman treat
iment. Most of the time since then
she has been and is now residing at
Minneapolis and has maintained and
supported herself by her own labor.
The crop conditions now is the
Sopic of interest to all the people
every where. Without any attempt
to misIead or spread broadcast any
thing but the true situation as sized
up by single individual will state
that after all is gathered in the pre-.
sent outlook does no promise TO be
any thing near as good as last sea-
son. Some will say an average
crop is in sight others half crop
such as a year ago. There are some
fine fields of barley and there is
other fields that are so short that g
mower is about the only machine tt
cut it all. The same can be said Of
aks. There is an unusual amount Of
foul seed which will cause much
dockage when brought to elevators anC
the fact that much grain is being
cut green indicates that farmers wan
to get some good straw to ease up OF
the poor hay that the heavy rains
Aave caused. There is no mortgage
litter in sight right now in the SHAPE
of small grain in this section but j
what there is be well cared for there
will be plenty to feed the stool
which are the real mortgage LITE
these days and those who have cat
tie and hogs and poultry now.a-day
are the kings of the earth. The.
are just as good as gold and though
they are tride low priced SOM
years. take it one year with anothe
stock and poultry are the main stay
of the farm. To the non-residen
Band owner who is looking for big re
turns in the shape of the revenue de
rived from small grain on his farr
this year he will have to be satisfie
with very small returns in most cases
The rains have formed some re
rust but not enough to do much dam
