that HOT Wind
DAMAGE NOT DETERMINED :
COOLER TODAY HELPS
CONDITIONS MUCH.

We got UP yesterday and wrung
our hands and drew the n of
our mouths down and shed crocodile
tears for the destruction of our crops
by the hot wind sweeping from the
southwestern farmers look at our
antics in a puzzled manner. then
shake their heads in perplexity. look
in the twin box TO see if there is
enough for another round. and drive
on. The %onsensu of opinion is that
while the wind of the last two days
did no good at all. its effect in short
,ening the crop was negligible.
The condition before the occurrence
Of the hot wind was one of extreme
dryness-bordering closely on a
drouth. Coming at an earlier time
of year il in itself would have spelled
disaster. But for the most part the
crops are beyond injury. and those
which were not developed far enough
will be lowered in yield. The bar
ley is a good crop, much of it ripen-
ing. Late oats will be made a little
lighter, but the amount Of damage is
hard to estimate-anyway il IS not
great. The condition of field pota-
toes is not much changed. The heat
and dry weather was hitting the late
ones anyway, and they are pretty
much beyond any help now. 1t is a
rain in a week or so that will deter
mine their status. Corn is Just going
into tassel. The heat curled the
leaves generally. but the injury is
thought to be negligible. Corn is a
crop that. like the German army.
may be destroyed three or four times
a year anyway. and yield a pretty
fair return in the end az that.
The wind of Saturday was very hot
and dry. Sunday was hotter By three
or four degrees. but the wind was
not so strong. In the evening the
heat gave way to a cooler condition,
and il is said TO have made the out
look better than would have a rain
with hot sun coming out on the grain.
To-day is cooler. and even i'm the dry
condition of the ground. the corn
leaves open up and looks as well a
ever withal. The hot wind undoubt
eddy did considerable damage. But
just how much. added to the effec,
of the general dry condition. il won't
be hard TO estimate. And. who ever
heard of a 100 per cent crop. any
way?

GAME and FISH
AQUARIUM TO BE ERECTED ON
STATE FAIR GROUNDS
AT HURON.

Huron. July 3.-The department
Of game and fish is TO construct a
handsome aquarium upon the state
fair grounds at Huron at once in
time for the 1917 fair. State Game
Warden III. s. Hedrick. representing
the game and fish commission. has
been in Huron during the past week.
and on Thursday. July %. at Pierre
the commission arranged to construct
a building for a splendid fish exhibit.
on the main thoroughfare Of the state
fair grounds. being on the north side
of Third street opposite the dairy
building and adjoining the lake.
Contract for the construction OF same
was awarded the Groves a. -Ander-
son Construction company. of Huron,
TO be completed by August 25. The
size of the building il TO be ~ by 36
feet. bungalow effect, stucco finish
with an eight foot cement sidewalk
around the entire building and equip
ped with modern tanks and other
paraphernalia. The state game war
den will maintain an office in this
building during the week Of the fair
where applications may be made for
hunting and fishing licenses. and
where general information will be
given out pertaining to this depart
ment.
A new steel fence will completely
surround the lake. where "A large eN
hibit of ring neck p%heasants and
aquatic fowl will be on exhibition
during the week of the fair. In ad-
dition four complete small game
parks will be installed, two OF the
east and two on the west OF the
aquarium. built of steel wire fencing
IS inches high. placed on steel posts.
in which will be exhibited herds OF
buffalo. elk. antelope and deer. Dep.
uty Game Warden Hawley has just
returned from northern Minnesota
with a bull moose calf that will also
be on exhibition.
This exhibit will probably attract
more attention than any other exhib
1t on the grounds, and will be IN
charge of State Game Warden II, $
Hedrick, assisted by his deputies. the
state game keeper from the state
game reserve in Fall River county
and the deputies i'm charge of the
state fisheries. The people of thu
state will be well pleased with this
exhibit and can well feel proud a
same.

are forming into companies TO en-
der the service for which we have
hitherto depended on the state troops
forming home guard.
The home guard has no state or
national official recognition. There
is no central organization yer it. II
rose through a request of citizeps of
some of the larger places TO the gov
ernor for an outline for self protec-
ton. In this state the governor del
egated the care of the matter to
Commissioner of immigration McCaf-
free. Mr.. McCaffree applied TO the
federal army headquarters, and in
response they promised an apportion-
ment of 5000 of the older rifles for
use of the new organization.
In enlistment there is no time set
for service-one may come or go.
There will probably be no uniforms.
The company should have a captain.
~lieutenants, s~ergeants and corporals
should be i'm position to keep rec
ords of numbers and attendance at
drills for purposes of requisitiOning
the supplies OF rifles and getting the
credit for them. This. il seems is
the only official connection with the
state. There should be military in
struction and drills-for the great
est efficience may be gotten through
military organization and formation.
Then. too. the peculiar duty which
would probably devolve upon such an
organization is such that. i'm ease of
action. the scene would be widely dis
tributed. and the situation would be
covered by squads corporal and
eight or less men. This would make
il necessary to have Officers and un-
der officers, instead of an inorganic
ed or unframed mob of rifles.
II may not be pertinent TO the sub
iect under discussion, but we can
not resist the impulse to say that il
the whole country could realize as
clearly the necessity of enlisting both
men and resources in the present war
as ii does the impending deprivation
of local military protection-well
then there would be no difficulty in
winning the war"

MATTERS MILITARY
THE MEN DRILL AND EAT AND
"MOOCH" SMOkES-ARE IN
GOOD DRILL WORK.

The local portion of Company l.
broke out this morning in one great
session of drilling on the parade al
the Normal barracks. The regular
ity of the drills has been broken dur
ing the past week with social func-
tions. NEGOTIATIONS and federal exam
nations. but for a few days nov
there will be nothing to hinder the
daily work. unless there is a recur-
renee of the intense heat of the past
few days. The work of this morning
was a review of all the foot drill the
men have had up TO this time. Capt.
Linstad said.
The men seem to know what 10 do
with all the orders issued them for
marching formations and eyolutions.
We do not know how much OF this
business of stepping in time and
whirling about in long platoons is
required to make a soldier. nor how
much of il the men at the Normal
barracks know. But what was seen
this morning was done in a very bust
nesslike manner, il seems.
A few of the men suffer from sore

anyway. But the number and liabil-
ity to this discomfort Is aggravated
by the lack of proper shoes. The
government supplies are not yet re.
ceived, and many of the men are no.
properly shod for marching. This
too. is another reason for a strenuous
schedule of drilling not being fol.
lowed.
Information has been received b,
the company that they will be called
TO camp in California sometime be
tween the 4th and 10th of mex
month. II is also reported that tbs
men who are being modified on the
west coast will be sent across tht
water by way of Honolulu. Yoka-

satisfaction with the schedule for this
side of the water. but look doubtful,
