rain may drive the grasshoppers
away, Mr.. Click hopes. He fears,
however, that unless something turns
up soon, they will do much damage
to his wheat. His wheat yield looks
good for IL bushels per acre. Mr..
Click is planning on stacking his
wheat at once, unless the pests beat
him to it. While this is the only
damage from this source reported in
this locality at the time this is writ
ten, Mr.. Click says that undoubtedly
mere damage has been done. The
pests have even cut the bands around
the bundles.

Linnertz Has IS Acres of Alaska
Wheat

Jos. Linnertz, a prominent farmer
from northwest of Minot, has 13
acres of Alaska wheat which prom
Uses an abundant yield. Mr.. Lin
nertz several years ago bought three
kernels of the wheat for dollar and
planted them in his flower bed. He
has been saving the seed ever since
and will soon have enough to sow a
large acreage. The wheat is odd
looking, each straw producing several
heads and on an average one kernel
produced about 80 kernels.

Brand New "Bone Dry" Story.

Louis Sitner, who has just returned
from Clarendon, Texas, where he is in
terested in mercantile business
brings back a brand new "bone dry
story. He says that in many locali-
ties in Texas, there is local option, but
the districts are rapidly becoming dry.
In little town near Clarendon, which
was scheduled to become dry in a
month, the bar tender, who did not
drink drop himself, put this sign up
in front of the saloon: "Don't ask me
what am going to do What in He'll
are you going to do?"
