RAIN WAS GENERAL
THROUGHOUT STATE

There was a general rain over the
greater portion of the state during
the latter part of the month of May,
according to reports received by the
Division Of Publicity of the Depart
ment of Agriculture and released for
publication Monday. Most of the
small grains have been seeded. The
demand for spring labor has some
what subsided, although a number of
prominent farmers are known to be
on the lookout for good general farm
hands who can be depended upon fo1
permanency. The report also shows
that grasshoppers are showing up in
few places, although not seriously
as yet.
The report from Galiatin county
shows light local showers, and crops
making rapid growth. Wheat, mead
ows and pastures are doing well. Re,
liable ranch hands can be used at
fair wages. Some grasshoppers are
showing UP. VIII soon need irrigators.

to cast it's eyes beyond the frontiers
to safeguard Frances rights and con-
solidate the peace of the world"
