WEEKLY CROP REPORT

The grain crops Of the northwest
have been subjected to very trying
conditions the past week. Tempera
lures have been extremely high and
usually accompanied by hot winds
These have dried the soil very rap
idly and in some places the grain is
burned. These conditions appeared
first where there was careless farm.

there has been but little rain recent.

show the effects Of the intense heat
There are, however, some good fields
in this territory and with cool weather
and sufficient moisture, the conditions
would be greatly improved. Except in

able. This is also true of North Da-
kota, with the exception of the terri
tory south of the main line of the
Northern Pacific from Dickinson west
to the Montana line. This latter ter
rittory has also suffered from drought
and heat. Montana has recently had
very heavy rains and in some sections
has wonderful prospects. The south
eastern part of the state, however,
has not had sufficient moisture and
this, combined with the extreme heat,
has damaged a considerable area.
We have had a few reports of black
rust, but with the exception Of two
or three instances, we find this is
nothing but ordinary leaf rust. We
know of two or three small areas
in Minnesota where winter wheat has
been slightly affected by black rust,
but this condition is not serious. Red
rust is to be found in various parts
of the northwest.
Spring wheat is heading unusually
early. It's condition is high except
in the dry areas where it is heading

and in the dry districts are heading
short. Rye is almost ripe and will
be harvested very early. The hot
weather has forced 1t at the filing
stage and its general condition it not
quite as favorable as two weeks ago.
The corn crop shows one of the best
prospects in years. This Is true even
in the drier districts. Flax seeding is
practically completed. There is a lit.
tie being done. however, in the south.
With few exceptions the condition of
the fax is about an average.

A metal spectacle case is credited
with having saved Paul Lier of

FUN ON PLEASANT HILL

Several picnic parties enjoyed the
evenings at the park the past week.
Wednesday evening the Ladies' Friend.
ship Club held their regular meeting
with a picnic lunch. The men were
invited and after lunch everybody
hiked for balls and mallets and pro-
ceeded to make the different trips on
the tourists course. Among the ladies
Mrs. Leakly won the blue ribbon with
a o of 20, while Mrs. Sexauer stood
a close second, and Mr.. Schoenweather
won high honors as a tourist among the
gentlemen. All stayed until too dark
to see balls or read score cards.
On Thursday the tie match game be-.
tween Skinner & Sherwin against Cat
lett and Stearns was played, ending
in a victory for the former. Mr..
Schoenweather played in place OF
Stearns on account OF a badly sprained
leg which Stearns acquired In secret
practice the day before and while
trying to make Pixies Peak. Catlett
made several slips going up Pixies
Peak to which he lays their defeat.
Schoenweather lays their defeat to

claimed Schoenweather had been

stood for Schoenweather he kept on,
but slowed up perceptably in his play
from that time to the finish. Skinner
and Sherwin played in fine form, ex-
cept just after Catlett got to the top
of Pixies Peak. 1t was very laughable
for the rest to witness the many slips
and the expressions of his face as he
failed time after time.
A splendid lunch was supplied by
the ladies present and at the close Of

Punctuality can be cultivated.
Slow coaches can be cured.
Some one has said that the only
way to catch a train is to start
in time; and in this pithy sentence
lies the gist of the only cure of
the habit of punctuality. Two
rnles grow out of it. One is.
always begin in time to get
ready" and the other is when
there are several things to be
done, decide which is the most
important and Go that first"

virtue in the family and in dust
