There is no doubt that the crops are late. Hard rains
have caused an excess of moisture in the Dakotas and
Minnesota and there is already considerable rust on the
lower leaves. Even with a continued period of fair
weather, the fact still remains that the crops are late.
The days are creeping on and the weather is not at all
propitious. Unfavorable reports are continually coming
in and with them many samples of poor wheat. Ex-
cessive moisture has caused stunted and backward
wheat and many of the samples are not only very small
but of very poor color.
The hope all along has been that the weather would
turn better, but right up to today at noon, our private
wire advices from the Red River valley tell of rain and
hail at Grand Forks and Hunter and other points. How
much damage this has done, or how serious it is with
reference to crops we cannot say, as reports are only just
in, but it illustrates the state of the weathergreat un-
certainty and conditions very erratic.
There is not the slightest hesitation in saying what
Ortorrrille, Minn.We are having entirely too much rain
and conditions are becoming serious. Fields are thoroughly
soaked the ground is soggy and cold.

everyone knowsthat the crop" of the northwest is in
a very critical condition.
There was a time when the northwest stood to raise
a bumper crop, and views and opinions of values were
based on this. With the past week of bad weather the
hope of a bumper has gone. How much wheat the
northwest will raise no one can tell yet, but any observ-
ing man can see the situation.
Wheat, on a commercial basis should not be worth
less than present prices even with a good crop, and with
a poor crop no one can say how high the price will be a
little later on.
W do not believe iii taking alarm unnecessarily,
and have been conservative all along against damage re-
ports, because always there was a chance for the crop to
recover with improvement in the weather, but anyone
can see that at this date, with the wheat so backward,
red rust very general, and a weather outlook still un-
certain, it is time to abandon all old notions of a big
crop and consider rather whether the northwest is going
to produce even a satisfactory crop or not.
Montevideo, Minn.Red rust and some black rust discov-
ered here.
Yankton, S. D.Rust threatens big damage to the crop in
this section.
Watson, Minn.We have had too much rain in this section,
and wheat is* turning yellow. Farmers are discouraged, be-
cause wheat must hare some sunshine, and this has been lack-
ing all spring. Situation very critical.

NORWEGIAN SYNOD COMMITTEE
PROPOSED A CHANGE.
Bnt President 2oren and Others Ot
Jected and the Ballots Were Altered
Minor Officers and Committees Are
ElectedAttendance Is Dwindling
as Session Nears Its Close.
(Earlier proceedings of the Norwegian L\jthei
an synod will be found on page 4.)
There were many vacant chairs
the church this moraine whet' the Nor
wegian synod began the last day's
work of the general conference. Many
members had left for their homes, and
the balloting was light when the meet
ing proceeded to elect men to fill the
many minor offices.
The" committee on nominations had
prepared a list of candidates, but some
of these were not entirely satisfactory,
and the ballots were amended by the
addition of many new names.
President Koren and others especial
ly objected to one of the men nominat
ed for member of the publishing-house
management. Some of the members
seem to have been at cross purposes,
and the nominating committee had
thrown overboard the present secretary
of the board, Professor George Mark
hus, and proposed to replace him by a
man in the employ of a rival publish
ing concern in Decorah.
Other Elections.
Eev. C. N. Petersen1
Elanation
was elected al
ternate for the treasurer of the synod.
The auditors elected are: Eev. E. A.
Strom, John Hexom: alternates, Profes
sor E. O. Kaasa, A. L. Haakensen.
Members of finance committee: Eev.
C. N. Petersen, Eev. J. B. Torrison,
Eev. J. Halvorsen, Joseph 0. Estrem.
The trustees of the synod are five in
Wnmber, and of these a maionty must,
according to the articles or incorpora
tion, reside in "Wisconsin. Those elect
ed are: President, V. Koren, Eev. A. K.
Sagen of La Orosse, Eev. K. Bjorgo of
Eed Wing, Thomas Torrison or Manito
woc and Andrew Jensen of Edgerton,
Wis.
The following were elected managers
of the church extension work: Eev. S.
S. Eoque, president Bev. Olaf Purmo,
secretary Eev. J. A. Thorsen, Chr.
Boxrud of Eed Wing, and "V. Gulbrand
son of Albert Lea. The auditing of
their accounts was left to Jens LienLok
ken and Edward Seielstad of La Orosse.
This afternoon the synod held a
short meeting at Luther college corpor
ation to ratify the elections and other
facts of the general conference in re
gard to the college.
The committee which reported on the
clmrcli extension work, asked for an ex
of the alleged fact that loans
ad been made to wealthy congrega
tions, while there had been no funds
for the use of poor churches which
needed assistance. President Bjiorge
said in reply, that it was the synod
church in Eed Wing which had received
a loan. Tho it was supposed my some to
be wealthy, he explained that the con
gregation in question had been hard
1resse for the money needed to en
arge its church and he defended the
action of the church extension manage
ment. The meeting declared his ex
planation entirely satisfactory.
For Seamen's Missions.
Appropriations were made to carry
on the work of the seamen's missions in
New York and San Francisco.
The synod extended its thanks to
Eev. E. Peterson, who for many years
has labored as a missionary among the
immigrants in New York, and has done
it on a salary of $400 a year, and yet
never complained. Eev. B. K. Kleken
made a warm plea for a more vigorous
prosecution of the English work Chi
cago and it was decided to send a new
worker into this field, with the under
standing that he shall be under the -joint
direction of the Norwegian synod and
the German Missouri synod.
The final adjournment was set for
5:80 p.m.

Dollar's Purchasing Dowe,
That depends largely upon WHERE you spend it
and WHAT you get in return for it. People may say!rti
that one dollar will only buy one hundred cents' worth,
but the real value of that one hundred cents' worth may I
vary. In this store everyone is treated alikethe
butcher, the baker and the candlestick-maker. The rich
man and his wife, and the poor man and his wife, are on!
an equal footing here. One doesn't get for 90c what an-1
