It is to be regretted that tick eradication was not placed on ballot and voted on at this time. We believe that the county was ripe or it. The sentiment has grown here wonderfully during the past year. The commits sioners feared that a technical error in the election notice would prevent the enforcement of the law if passed favorably, and therefore left it off the bal lot. If the special enabling act passed by the last legisla- ture is not effective two years hence, another one can be en- acted and should be.

But She'll Get Home First!

A short time before Christmas Grace, aged four, of Newburg, Ind, was taken by her aunt to Evansville to do some Christmas shopping" They went on the interurban, and had a double seat to themselves.
 Ill the course of the afternoon they encountered the young man to whom the aunt was engaged, and he accom-. panied them to the depot when they were ready to start home. Grace's suspicious were aroused, and sidling up to her aunt she asked in low and rather ungracious voice:
 Is he going home with us?"
 Yes, l think he is," replied the aunt.
 Well" sighed Grace Jeannette, re- calling the double seat on the inter urban. T see where I'll have to ride backwards! !"-Jndianapolis News

CROP DAMAGE SEVERE.

AS reported in last weeks issue of the
Review, the hot humid weather worked
havoc with the crops of this vicinity and
at the present time the best that can
be looked for among the small grains is
an average of so per cent from the fields
in the country tributary to New Ulm.
1t was hoped that cool weather would
stay the development of the rust spores
but no relief was given and those who
have talked with the farmers find that
half crop is all they expect.
Reports from elevator auditors with
regard to crops along the Northwestern
line in South Dakota place the damage
to the crops at IS per cent. H. L.
Beecher and J. F. Armstrong of the
Eagle Mill took trip Sunday by car
from here to Redwood Falls and thru
Fairfax and Morton and their reports
of the damage done in those localities
agrees with what conditions around New
Ulm shows.
