Wet Weather.

All spring the rain came down
amain, and rills grew into rivers;
the bullfrogs croaked that they were
soaked till widowed were their
livers. The fish were drowned, and in
swound reclined the muskrat S
daughter, and cen the snakes, in
swamps and brakes, Kissed forth,
"Theres too much water" And all
my green's, the peas and beans that
l with toll had planted, a sickly host
gave up the ghost, the while | raved
and ranted. The dew of doom his
spuds in bloom, and slew the tender
oniorn; l viewed the week and
said "By heck" and other things
from Bunyan. All greens of worth
dropped to the earth, and died and
went to thunder; but useless weeds
all went to seeds-no rain could
keep them under. When weather's
dry, and in the sky red-hot sun is
burning, it gets the goat Of corn
and oats, the wheat to wastage turn
ing; the carrots shrink, and on the
blink you sec the parsnips lying,
but weeds still thrive and keep alive,
while useful things are dying. It's
strange and sad that critters had,
both veg table and human, hang on
so tight, while critters bright must
perish when they're bloomin' walt

Gallatin Postoffice Clerk Delivers

One of the clerks in the Gallatin
postoftice was hard at work when a
gentle tap was heard at the door
and in stepped a blushing maiden OF
16 with a money order which she de-
sired cashed. She handed it with a
bashful smile to the clerk who after
examining it gave her the money it
called for. At the same time he
asked her if she had read what was
written on the margin of the order.

l can not make it out. Will you
please read it for me?' Iii.
The clerk head as follows: Il

CHANGING at the bashful girl, he
said, ''Now l have paid you the
money and l suppose you want the
Kisses
YES" she said, eff he has sent
me any kisses I want them, too.
1t is hardly necessary to say that
the balance of the order was prompt
ly paid in a scientific manner.
On reaching home, the delighted
maiden remarked to her mother:
Mother this postoffice system of
ours is a great thing, developing
more and more every year, and each
new feature seems to be the best.

Des Moines, Iowa.
Another COOL cloudy and wet
week has greatly retarded haying,
harvesting and the cultivation OF
corn, and the wet weather and winds
resulted in considerable damage to
standing grain that is ripe. The
average temperature was about de-
grees below the normal and the rain
fall was in excess of the seasonal
average in nearly all parts of the
state. The last three days, how
ever, we're moderately warm and
more favorable for corn, which is
now making rapid growth, although
still small and late. Haying and
harvesting progressed in favored To-
calities, but over much of the win
ter wheat area the fields were too
wet and soft for working binders.
Farmers are now resorting to
cradles and gasoline-driven bind
ers to save one of the largest wheat
crops ever produced in the state.
Other small grains are filling we'll,
but there is considerable complaint
OF rust In and lodging of oats.
Early potatoes, garden truck and
pastures are in excellent condition.

Pins and Dollars.

Some people never fail to bend
their backs to pick up a pin, and
yet let the dollars slip right through
their fingers without even a blink.
They grasp at the shadow while the
substance marches by.
If the point Of a pin is facing you
1t is supposed to be good luck to
pick it up.
But there are greater values and
better opportunities for luck than in
STOPPING your shoulders in futile
search for pins.
Read the ads in this paper if you
want to find luck in big chunks and
pick up dollars instead of pins.
Our advertising columns are full
Of splendid opportunities every
week, and they are to be had simply
for the reading and the taking.
