During the paBt week The Tribune man has talked with farmers from the four corners of the county and within the four corners and learns that the condition of corn varies greatly. In some sections the condition is above the average the stand being excellent and the stalks' waist higfi. In- other sections the stand ispoor and the stalks small. In sections where the crop ia good the result is due to local rains and, constant cultivation; where it is poor it is largely the result of replanting on account of the cut worms taking the first planting and the lack of moisture. Some farmers who are not very enter prisinc. have not cultivated their corn to any extent and have not therefore conserved the moisture in the ground. The benefit of constant cultivation i3 noticeable in adjoining fields-ti oultfvated field showing up well, the neglected field tho reverse. With a renspnably late .fall permjtttagjnto tcgt), to mature, the crop in the county will be fairly large. ' Elliott Climbing the Ladder. Ben Elliott, who has been visiting his parents this week, is now employed as expert mechanical engineer by tho Mc- Keen motor car company of Omaha, ond has just returned from Texas where ho dollverod two cars td tho Texas Pacific road. Mr. Elliott will, however, resign his present position October 1st and go to tho University of Wisconsin na a specialist in the engin eoring department Along with anothor mechantcal engineer he is working on a constant pressure gasoline engine, which, if successful, will revolutionize engmos of that type. The fact that Mr. Elliott goes to the University of Wis consin as an engineering specialist is evidence that tho yung man bids fair to roach the top of the ladder In his special linej , Mr. August Molzer, tho well known violinist and director of tho Molzer Violin School at Lincoln, Nebraska, will rendor n program at the Presbyter Ian church on Thursday evening, the 25th inst., with tho assistance of his remarkably talented little pupil Miss Lillian Cinborg.

Miis Elsa Ackerman, well known pianist of Lincoln, will render a few solos and act as accom panist to Mr. Molzer. The little girl violinist is always accomponied by her older sister, Miss Esther Cinbcrg, a highly accomplished pianist. This Will be a decidedly fine musical troat. Tickets will be on sale at Clinton's. Go to the city blacksmith shop for mower repairs, section ledger plates, knifo heads and rivits, disc pins, wagan paint and all kinds of repairing. Also a first class horse shoer. Try us and we will give perfect satisfaction. 47-4 J. E. Jeffmes, Prop. Mr, and Mra. Mose McFarland re turned Monday night from a month's visit in San Francisco, Los Angelea and San Dlogo, Cal. Whilo their trip was a most pit asant ono, and they thorough ly enjoyed It, Mose says there Is only ono town, and ho was really glad to get back to It. "Those hundred thousand dollar residences in LoslAngelea looked fino," ho says, "but my humble homo on Secoud street looked better." It was a Soaker. The heaviest rain of the growing season fell yesterday morning between two and four o'clock. Observer Hardin reported the fall at one and seven one hundredth inches, which is only one half inch more than fell at this point during the entire month of June. The downpour yesterday covered nearly tho entire county, some sections reporting more and some less. Corn throughout the county was needing rain badly, though the lack of moisture had not yet retarded the growth. With this precipitation the crop will forge ahead rapidly. County Sunday School Convention. The annual Sunday school convention of Lincoln county will be held in the Presbyterian church in this city August 24th and 25th. This date wan selected by the Secre tary Miss Margaret Ellen Brown and W. H. Kimberly, who are the field managers for Sunday school work in the state, both of whom will be pres ent at that time. There will be other speakers from the list of Sunday school workers in the state present. It is ex pected that 500 will attend. We want every Sunday school in Lin coln county represcntid by large dele gations. Begin now to getready for this grand rally of all the Sunday schools flf Lin coln county-. A committee will soon be appointed that will have charge of all details connected with the convention. J. H. Edmisten, Pres. Myrtle Sunday School Convention. At the school house in Myrtle pre cinct last Sunday was held ono of the district Sunday school ennventions. The house was crowded to its capacity and people had come from a long dis tance in all directions to enjoy and take part, in the same. About 100 were present. , Three Sunday schools were repre sented and reported, the showing was that they are doing excellent work in the localities where they are being conducted. When the time came for dinner it developed that the attendants had come prepared with dinner enough to feed as many more as was present, judging from the many baskets that were 'gathered in after the feast. The services during the day were in deed inspiring ob the discussion of the jnany llye Sunday school questions were gone into m a way that convinced all present that a deep seated Interest )has come over Sunday school people of Lincoln county. . The discussion of each of the subjects were participated in by a number of local people as well as those that had been assigned the subjects. The general good fpeling that prevailed throughout the day, will doubtless be fruitful in producing good results. From Nosth Platto there were E. W. Crane, Fred Warren, Carl McGrew and J. H. Edmisten, all of whom took part part in tho day's programe. Reporter. R. B. Favoright performed the cere mony which made John E. Snydor and Miss Margaret A. Wilson husband and wife last Tuesday.
