A windstorm came up from the northwest Tuesday about 4 o'clock p. m. and for an hour blew a gale , filling the air with dust and the whole horizon seemed a dense cloud , though the sky overhead was cloudless. As the storm raged chimneys were swept off of some buildings and loose boards , shing les from the repair of houses , and other debris were flying in the air making a howling hurricane. The storm came up suddenly and con tinued to blow throughout the eve ning in fitful gusts , damaging sev eral buildings and awnings or porches that were not firmly anchor ed. Previous to the beginning oi the storm the weather was ideal , many remarking that the splendid weather and heat of 92 ° the day previous was the forerunner of a storm but no one expected such D sudden change. to J > fc > fcto to 49 49 The hot summer days are near at hand , and if you want to be COOL and COMFORTABLE you will have to get UNDER one of these SHADY PANAMAS or STYLISH STRAWS : : : : : : Panama Shapes 35c to 75c Genuine Panamas .

Day and son of Wood Lake were in town last Saturday and called at our office on.business.

The advantage of the evener is that it places the third horse where it ought to go and the three in correct position for mowing or working on a wagon , the extra horse working on either side of the team which works in the same position as without the third horse.
