piled. "Too much big wheat, too

Thoss who handled their grain by the

The Willamette University at Salem
has extended the vacation period from
J the goth Of September to the 2nd of
October, in order that students work
ing in the rural districts may have ad-
ditional time to assist in harvesting
the crops.
Mrs. B. B. Richards. Mrs. H. H.
Hill and Mr.. and Mrs. Bert Davis are
among the campers and berry pickers
at McDougal's camp. The McDougal
camp is popular resort and annually
attracts large numbers of Weston and
Athena people.
j. H. Booher is now representing an
eastern firm which makes a specially
Of made to order women's wear. He
is prepared to measure for tailor made
suits, coats. skirts.s waists, etc. He
will also take orders for furs, and
makes specially of red fox furs.

grain storage is necessary. Yesterday
morning, Reed Hill commenced work
lof enlarging the storage capacity of
the mill 15xi4 feet. The new addi-
tion will be on the north end Of the
present building.
Floyd Corporan, who is soldering in
the Second Washington regiment sends
the Press copy Of the "The Second
Washingtonian," the official paper of
the regiment. 1t is brimfull of inter-
esting matter pertaining to the ,doings
of the soldier lads, and is published
weekly at Tacoma.
The stretch of 0. w. track between
Athena and Weston, is being ballasted
with gravel. The crew doing TIE
work are Japs. The O. w. is making
considerable permanent improvements
on the Washington division this sea-
son. Aside from ballasting the entire
road bed, fills are being made at the
Pine Creek and Dry Creek crossings.
O. T. dad, Douglas reports to the
Weston Leader of having seen a pecu-
liar object flying rapidly across the
heavens Sunday night. 1t resembled
ball of fire with trail of sparks
behind it. Dad isn't claiming that
the object was stray aeroplane, be-
cause he was unable to fly after it and
make a personal investigation. He
merely says it was different from any
aerial visitor he ever saw before. Sid
Mclean was with him at the time, and
was equally mysti6ed. \
Weston Leader: Bean prospects
have been looking up in the Weston
country the last few days. Pods have
been setting nicely on the vines, many
of which are well loaded, and cool
nights are helping the crop to mature.
While rain would do a lot of good
there is enough moisture in the soil to
bring the crop to maturity, and the
only danger is from early frosts. In
company with W L. Robbins our bean
editor visited number of fields this
week, and feels quite encouraged over
the outlook.

Valley Highs Chances
Growing Better Daily

With jamestown losing games last
week to Casselton and Fargo, Valley
City Highs chances for the state
championship in basketball take on a
decidedly rOseate hue.
Jamestown's showing on the trip OF
last week did not accord with the work
of that team up to the date of the last
games Reasons for the slump have
not been given out, but the team ola
not measure up to its standard.
A new feature has just been inter-
Jected into the situation by the show
ing of the Michigan team. This team
defeated Minot last week and claims
an unbroken series of victories. They
have scored 280 points to 81 by their
opponents. They will probably go into
the semi-fnals for the state tourna-
ment to be held in Grand Forks, just
as they did last year, when Minot put
them out of the running.
But word received by the local boys
regarding the Michigan-Minot game
removes uneasiness about their being
eontenders in the finals. Their score
Of "a to 9, over Minot looks like bet

But the Minot team have two excep.
tionally strong men in their forwards,
both of whom played here and both Of
whom we're out of the Michigan game.
That puts a different complexion on
their championship claims.

just dropped two games, Coach Steven
