Reports of dam age to crops have been so numerous of late owing to the unseasonable weather and ravages of bugs, have been greatly exaggerated, according to Secretary of Agriculture Wilson, who was in Chicago today. He said that in Minnesota and the Dakotas seeding had been delayed two weeks, but there was plenty of time between now and September to grow a nor mal crop of spring wheat. In the Canadian northwest, Secretary Wil son said, the roports were more seri ous, but says tho shortage here is not out much of the usual Agure. In the southwest, where most of the reports of greenbug have been circulated, he has found In every instance that the pest was local. There has been no general attack of the bug, as some persons would like to have It appear, and it will bo found that a normal crop will be harvested. With The Sick Able to Be Out. J. T. Hall, who has been HI for a few days with an attack of bronchitis, is recovering and able to bo out. M. P. Gulovscn. Improving. M. P. Gulovsen, who has been quite ill for the past few days, was oper ated on at tho Mercy hospital, North Bend, yesterday, for the removal of tho appendix. Mr. Gulovsen has been suAerlng with a serious case of appendicitis with complications, but at last reports last night was getting along nicely. Recovering From Operation. Dr. J. T. McCormac has received a letter from his wife, who is now in Portland, stating that his daughter, Mrs. H. W. French, Is improving nicely after undergoing a serious op eration for the removal of the ap pendix. The operation was per formed at St. Vincent's hospital in Portland, where Mrs. McCormac and her daughter have been for several weeks.
