cepting 1t, remarked that she had new
ser done SO little for the same value,
showing that she considers the prize
worth at least all the effort she put
forth. She did not make an active
canvass, however, excepting in very
limited way.
But Miss Dean is deserving of the
prize she captured, for she is posses
Bsed of a sweet disposition. as her

spect and love Of her associates in a
high degree.
She has lived in Codington county
all her life, making her home with
her parents, Mr.. and Mrs. n. "a. Dean.

points the situation IS without not

that German troops advancing along

Germans Objective IL Dunklrl<
The impression grows that the Ger

to the line OF seaports now held along

are making desperate efforts to hurl
back the invaders, Reports coming
from Holland declare the Germans
have been repulsed six miles from

GRAIN STEAMERS
LEAVE GALVESTON
Prospects Are for Exports OF Five or
Six Million Bushels In
September.

Galveston, Tex. Sept. 10.-The only
development In the trade situation
yesterday OF any Importance was the
sailing Of the steamships Rygja and
Ardmount for Valencia and Falmouth
with 100000 bushels OF wheat. This
makes in excess OF 100000 bushels
OF grain to leave this port this month.
and prospects are good for shipping
100000 or 100000 bushels In Sep.
tember.
The embargo OF the Santa Fe Rail.
road has not been lifted and grain ar.
rivals are curtailed. The port is not
receiving the amount Of grain which
II should in consideration OF the num-
Der Of vessels now awaiting cargo. and
II is considered unfair that the Santa
Fe should divert grain to other mar.
kets when the elevators at Galveston
are not working much more than half
time. In spite OF bad conditions the
season will prove by far the best the
port has even known.

you give this movement a great i'm.

Gently for the purpose Of having the
inspector Of Weights and Inspection
Bureau explain the methods OF hand
ling cotton this season. and to name
the exceptions that are to be noted
on each bill Of lading In the shipping

follows: Open ends (heads out), wet.
soiled. bagging insufficient to hold
marks, bagging ragged. and damaged
by grease or exposure

note any OF these exceptions on their
receipts or they will be held respon-
sible for all damage not noted by the

the warehouse the price for condition
ing same will be deducted from the
price paid to the owner by the buyer.
