A good many parties have asked

Hardly if . boy can't burn gun

fought and won, a hollow mockery.

the old cranks who now want to
prevent the rising generation FROM

A resident Of Pine grove, accom-
panied by a man with a divining
rod, has been for the last two weeks
searching for the sack of gold dust
which was lost many years ago by a
miner who was escaping from the
Indians. The Pine Grove man
knew some of the first party that
came on the search and is satisfied
that he has sufficient data to con-
fine the search within reasonable
limits. He knows that it was left
near one Of the washes from the
canyons and only fears that the
water may have changed its course,
and after the sack had rotted, that
gold may have scattered along the
channel. If it has been left in
bulk he feels confident of finding
the treasure which he says must be
be very valuable from the state
ment Of the size of the sack left by
the dying owner.-Hawthorne Bull

The tobacco crop of 1884 was the larg.
est ever grown in Wisconsin, and the
finest in quality, the average plice being
nearly fourteen cents per pound, bring
ing to producers $3,OS3,9 The tobac-
co region of Wisconsin is confined to
the counties of Dane and Rock, two
small but productive counties In the ex.
treme southern portion of the state and
in the same latitude as the Dakota coun-
ties of Union, Clay, Yankton and Bon
Homme. 1t is upon the prairies of
these Wisconsin counties that the tobac-
co plant thrives. It was about the year
1870 that the first noticeable efforts in
the direction of tobacco culture in Wis
consin were made. The beginning was
in small way and as time
went on many discouragements
were encountered and overcome. The
first varieties introduced proved of little
value and then followed series of ex.
periments which resulted in the general
adoption of variety adapted to the soil
and climate Of that portion of Wiscon-
sin. In the beginning the product went
begging for customers at from three to
six cents per pound, and even at that
price there was some profit in it. The
Wisconsin crop of84. is in demand at
from twelve to twenty cents per pound
and it is rapidly taking the place of Con-
necticut seed leaf in the manufacture Of
cigars. This is the result of the practical
efforts of farmers during the past decade
and half.We dwell upon this subject be.
cause VIC believe that Yankton and ad-
joining counties will produce as good q
quality Of tobacco as is produced in the
Wisconsin counties named. The require.
ments are strong, quick soil, generous
summer heat and an abundance of rain
during the latter part of May, the month
of June and the beginning of July.
After being transplanted from the start.
ing beds the plant grows rapidly and in
July is ready for the harvest. Some
capital is required in the beginning. as
substantial drying sheds are one of the
first requisites. The profits to the pro.
ducer are large. when once reputation
is established on the market, and the
product becomes source of great
wealth to the section which grows it.

Delegate Clifford, in a Sioux Falls in.
terview, was asked to outline his plan of
congressional operations in connection
with the statehood movement. This is
his reply:
my idea is that the best course to
pursue would be to introduce bill in
the house for division alone, and let the
senate take care of the constitution that
will be framed in September. but in this
matter ! shall be governed largely by
the advice OF tho senate. II both bill
and constitution are presented in the
house neither will ever see the light of O
discussion. I don't think we can hope
for anything more than division during
the next session."
After division will the more readily
come admission and the constitution
will be in shape for use whenever state.
hood is bestowed.
