A girl named Nyangandi, who
lived near the Ogowe river, West
Africa, one Saturday came in her
canoe with two punches of plan
tains to sell to the missionary.
When she was going away Mrs.
aBtchelor, the missionary's wife,
said to her: ''Now you must not
forget that tomorrow will be the
Sabbath, and you have already
promised to come every time. T"
Yes, said the girl, Il will surely
come if 1 am alive" And so she
did, but no one knew how she got
there, until, at the colse of the ser
vice she told the girls that in the
night her canoe had been stolen,
and none of her friends would lend
her one; but she had promised to
come to church, and so she felt she
must. She swan all the way. If
this heather girl, who knew only
a little about the Gospel, could take
so much pains to keep her word
and come to the house of prayer,
how much more should more fav-
ored people not forsake the as
sembling of themselves together!-

GEOLOCIST GIVES
RAINFALL DATA

Rainfall statistics for Minnesota
and the northwest were given by
DR.. George A. Thiel of the Univer-
sity of Minnesota's geology depart
ment in a recent lecture.
Minnesota receives on an average
about 10 inches more precipitation
IN the eastern part of the state than
in northwestern counties, he said.
In the Twin Cities region the aver
age rainfall for the crop season
alone, from May to August inclusive
for the last 81 years has been 11.55
inches. In annual precipitation the
greatest fuctuation has been from
11.59 inches in 1910 to 40 inches in
the following year, 1911.
There has been a decreasing trend
IN precipitation over the 40 years
prior to 1888, in the northern tier of
states, and rising trend in the
south.
In Minnesota, for example, the
average for 10 years ending in 1908
was approximately 29.5 inches and
Tor the decade ending with 1888 the
average is just little more than 25
inches. In other words, the former
ten year period had nearly 80 per
cent more rainfall than the latter.
An examination of the long time
record for the Twin City area shows
that conditions similar to those now
being experienced have occurred
twice before in the last 100 years.
Plotted as a trend line, it would show
three low points, the decades ending
in 1848, 1894 and 1888. The averages
for those years are practically the
same. Thus, our recent drouth was
no more severe than those of 40 and
so years ago.

AS the result of the explosion of a
blow torch which occurred Monday
of last week at his garage in Magno-

in critical condition at the Luverne
hospital suffering from severe burns
about the face and head and the up
per part of his arms.
At the time of the accident, Dickey
was using blow torch to thaw out
crankcase of an automobile. He
was on his back under the car direct
ing the flame against the crankcase
when the explosion occurred.
He was promptly rushed to the Lu-
verne hospital where his condition is
said to be serious. The effects of the
burns are made additionally serious
by shock and inhaling of fumes.

died Immediately. One of the Lien

Local, County, State and Ma
tiOnal Set-up Suggested
for Proper Marketing

Clements-The postponed meeting
of the Clements Shipping association
was held Saturday with John Neu-
decker presiding. The minutes were
read and the treasurer gave his re-
port. Then the manager, Joe Beran,
gave his report, which contained sur
prises.
The association handled more hogs
in 1884 then in 1888 but less cattle
and veal. More money was paid out
and a larger balance left in the
treasury. 1t is unusual that when
most associations are losing ground,
the Clements association has wealth
cred the storm of depression and is
ready to serve the farmers in the
years to come, Mr.. Beran stated.
The manager pointed out that few
adjustments and changes should be
made in the marketing system.
Many farmers are disappointed with
the prices they receive after their
stock is unloaded and sold at point
of destination, but they are helpless
for their stock is moved and the pro-
ducer is at the mercy of the buyer.
If the stock were sold right on the
farm and not moved until it was sold
making the competition right on the
farm, it would be a decided advant-
age to the farmer, he said.
The manager suggested that the
farmers should hire a salesman for
each community to sell their stock
right on the farm before it leaves
the place. This man should be a
good judge of livestock. These sales
men should perfect county organ
ization and there should be a state
and national organization. In this
way all the livestock would be sold

slaughter OF hogs for the first eight
months Of 1884 was about IL. per
cent under the total for the CORE
spending period for 1888.
A part of this gain has been due
to an increase in consumers income
and to some adjustment in tonnage
effectuated by the shortage of feed
supplies resulting from drought, but
production control under the Agri.
cultural Adjustment Act has been
large factor. Hog prices throughout
the current marketing year are ex.
pected to average higher than for
several seasons.
