Died AT CODY
GUS IDEkER, OF MINNEHAHA
COUNTY, SUCCUMBs.

Sioux Falls, June 15.-Another
Sioux Falls boy has paid the great
price in the raj for civilization and
the body of the late Gus Ideker, aged
%, member Of the old South Dakota
cavalry, will arrive in Sioux Falls to-
day on Its way to Hartford for burial.
Young Ideker died Wednesday at
Camp Cody, following a five-day i'll
ness, believed to have been pneu-
monia, although his brothers here
have not had definite word on this.
Last week H. A. Ideker, of Hart
ford, father of the lad. received word
to rush to Cody as his SON was crit
ically i'll. He reached there in time
to see him. The mother died here Is
years ago and the father and two
sons, viii and Fred Ideker. now live
at Hartford, while two other sons
Henry and John, reside here.
The funeral probably will be hello

Sunday.

HOTTER Than USUAL
TEMPERATURES HAVE BEEN
ABOVE NORMAL DURING
PAST WEEK.

Huron, June 15.-M. E. Blystone,
state meteorologist, in his weather
and crop report for the week ending
June IL. says the average tempera-
ture of the week was above normal.
There were a few cool days in the
early part of the week, but during
the latter part it was very warm. Lo-
cal showers occurred during the early
part of the week, but during the lat
ter part generally fair weather pre-
vailed. There was an abundance of
sunshine. This week as a whole was
very favorable to crop growth and al
SO to carrying on farming operations.
All small grains made good growth
and are generally in excellent condi-
tions. In some localities, however,
rye is only fair. Early barley is be-
ginning to head. Conditions have
improved for corn, due to less rain.
fall and to warmer weather. Cut
worms are continuing to cause dam,
age and some replanting is being
done as a result. In many localities
corn is being cultivated.
