These are official reports from the government weather bureau station at St. Joseph’s college. , A break is promised for tomorrow, with scattered thunder showers tonight. Samuel H. Holmes and son, of Jamestown, N. Dak., have been here for the past week and will remain for two or three weeks, longer. The boy, who is about 12 years of age, had been suffering for some time from a nervous trouble that baffled the physicians at Jamestown and he brought the lad to St. Paul and consulted a specialist The treatment prescribed seems to be doing him considerable good and Sam thought he had better remain with the boy here for about a month. Crop conditions about Jamestowri" are fine this year. Sam has oats, wheat, barley and rye out and just a little corn. Prof. Lillo Hauter, who taught school in Washington the last year, will teach the coming year at East Grand Forks, Minn. He specializes In agriculture and engages in extension work, and will 'have somewhat the same duties there that the county agents will have in Indiana. He will have a 10-acre plot of ground on which to conduct experiments and demonstration work. This might be a good thing in'lndiana and it seems to us that the county agent could very conveniently have been a memberrof the high school faculty had the law so provided. East Grand Forks is a dty of about 3,000 people in Polk county, in which Mclntosh, where Walter English wih teach, is also located. One man was killed and fifteen were injured, many of them fatally, Friday afternoon when a Pennsylvania passenger train crashed head on into a work train at Woodville, O, twelve miles east of Toledo. The dead and injured were taken to Toledo on relief trains sent out by officials of the company. Butter wrappers, any quantity, plain or printed, may be had at The Republican office.
