Crop and labor conditions in the
western part OF Clay county are prac-

of B. ]. Gunderson, a prominent Mo-
land township farmer:
Harvest is about half over and all
OF my grain is well fllled; the hot
weather made the corn jump; potatoes
are not suffering yet for rain, and a
good yield Is Indicated by the plants
with four or five well formed tubers
on each; this Is the average number
In any god year; the hay crop is short.
So far have had no trouble to get all
the help needd for harvest and other
work on the farm"
Mr.. Gunderson has the reputation of
being cheerful man and a trifie in
clined towards optimism. If anything
could make man cheerful who is not
naturally inclined that way, the crop

LOOKS LIKE PROSPEROUS YEAR
Minnesota Finances in Good shape,
According to Report.

St. Paul, Mimi, Aug. 2.--Minnesota
entered upon a new fiscal year yester-
day, more prosperous than ever be-
fore, according to state Treas. Henry
Rines. Increasing $1,490, 973.35 during
the last year, the states permanent
trust funds now total $26, 5,162.50. In
addition, there is credited to these
funds approximately $12,000,000 of
contracts on sales of state lands
drawing per- cent interest, which
make the grand total of trust funds
more than $38,000,000
The cash balance of $504,74733 in
these funds will be disbursed on or
ders of the investment board Aug. q
to clear up approved applications for
loans from counties, cities and schools
throughout the state.
Cash in the state treasury at the
beginning of the new year yesterday
footed $7,584075.13. This amount was
considerably larger than the CORE
spending figure last year in spite of
the fact that Hennepin, Ramsey and
St Louis counties. which had made
more than s1,O00.000 of advances at
this time last year, have yet to make
any remittances of tax collections.

USE LEGS TO DRIVE HORSES
cavairymen Must Keep Hands Free to Fight With-Each Man ~
 Regular Armory.

A cavalryman must learn to drive by the pressure of his legs so both his hands will be free to fight with, all to himself. He carries pistol, a rife and saber, and he must be able to use them freely without being thrown from his horse. .-
 There's something very romantic about the cavalry, something very thrilling about the thunder of hun dreds of horses hoofs, something that makes one's heart leap with joy-or terror, or a mixture of both. For my self, If I were ''the enemy" believe I'd much rather face a machine gun than cavalry charge, writes Mary Woodson Shippey In the Southern Woman's Magazine. But, somehow, the cavalry has not proven practicable in the present war, and as France and England can furnish about all that might be needed, most of our cavalry are to be made into artillery, because of the great need of artillery.
 Tn fact, all the new cavalry regi- ments are to be trained as artillery men, while the old ones are being trained as infantrymen, although they will all keep their designation as cav alrymen. This gives them double dose of training-for they must be able to drill equally well afoot or on horseback-as well as a double lot to learn. But they all insist, to man, that they're not infantrymen-or .doughboys' and '1eather-necks," as they derisively call them-but dis mounted cavalry" And so be it, since they are so terribly proud of their branch of the service and so loyal 1 to it. ,, There were fully as many, or more, l of these "dismounted cavalrynen" up on the hills going through regular in- l fantry drill as there were cavalrymen I astride horses-hundreds of ther1, l olive-drab units marching, marching | everywhere among the wheeling, cir cling horses, making one dizzy just
 watching. And standing about on
 lone prominences were various off1-
 cers. silent, alert, their horses ike statues-if statues could switch an- grily at fiies-their keen eyes watch | ing very critically this army of these | United States grow, picking out the
 mistakes and flaws in under-oficers and men.
 It gave one strange, comforteo
 feeling-a strange impression of determination to see to it that all
 these hundreds of boys were perfect
 in all the tricks of the trade, so they
 could take care of themselves. Ano
 how young the most of them seemed Slim, smooth-cheeked boys, their faces l just growing up to the square manif l ness of their trim shoulders, for the
 cavalry takes younger boys than any
 ether branch of the service

WHAT DO you KNOW"

How many times have you been
asked that very identical question by
THE NEWS man? Too many times to
remember, perhaps. Now let us sug-
gest that you change the accepted
order of procedure for one that will be
a vag- i,-2C-ovement. Instead OF wait
ing Tor us to ask you, suppose you just
take the initiative and tell us, or write
us, or phone us what you know in the
nature of a news item.
That little piece of information you
have revolving around in your era
MUM may not be OF great Importance
to you, but to others it may be of vital
interest, and may be even of consider
able value. Every piece Of news you
read in THE NEWS we have received
from some source or other. The eff
forts of the people make the paper OF
greater interest and value to you. Now
suppose you reciprocate and do as
much for them. Tell us what you
know.
1t is manifesty impossible for any
one paper to get ALL the news going,
just as it is manifestly impossible for
any news man to sit at desk all day
long, and get all that is going just the
same. He's bound TO get something on
the missing line.
