The wind blew fiercely and people ran to their cellars, thinking it was going to be a cyclone.

tsThe hay fever sufferers south of r- English’s residence on Cullen street and all on River street have ordered a consignment of crude oil to be used on the street as a dust preventative. The oil costs but 4 % cents per gallon and one application is sufficient to keep the dust down an entire summer. It is put on in the same manner as sprinkling with the wagon, and should it prove successful it will probably be used here generally next summer.

Newton County Enterprise: Oats threshing is In full blast this week and the grain is rolling into the elevators in great quantities. Only a few had finished yesterday, hardly a sufficient number to base an estimate on the average yield. A few fields have fallen as low as 22 bushels, but these are rare exceptions. Some have run as high as 65 to 58 bushels, and this is perhaps as far above the average. Ed. Clark, living on the Harry Marin farm, reports 45 bushels, and Wm. Collins 65 bushels on small tracts.
