The Creamery Running

The Medicine Lodge creamery was
started yesterday morning. and up to
noon 200 pounds of milk had been re-
ceiyed. The butter-maker did not get
here until Monday, and the people in
the country did not get word that milk
would be received. 1t is expected that
by next Monday 10000 pounds of milk
will be delivered daily. Frank May is
the receiver and manager at the cream
cry, and he will endeavor, at once, to
learn the business in detail. The SUI
perintendent and butter-m maker is j, NJ.
Reeves, direct from Wisconsin, who
has had years Of experience in first
class creameries. He makes good
impression. and is much pleased with
the plant here, and the surroundings.
1t will take several days to get the ma
chinery all in working order, and to get
the taste Of wood out of the churns,
watts. ETC.; but when once started it will
be the best equipped creamery in Kan
sas, and before summer begins it will
be handling 20 900 pounds of milk daily.
The price now paid Is 80 cents per hun
dred pounds.
For further particulars we would d.
rect the reader to the column article we
published on the 18th of April.
L. VanRiper, agent for Davis & Ran
kin, the creamery contractors and build
ers, is here this week. settling up the
financial part of the contract. He is
pleased with the promptness of our
people.

informant stood, west of Lisbon, as far
as the eye could reach, the grand charge
was progressing, much like an army

More Fine Cattle.

The Medicine Valley Stock Farm, E.
P. Miller, proprietor, Pardee s. Clark,
managers, last week received from the
east, a carload of eight full-blood Hol-
stein COWS and one calf, the latter's sire
being the noted Pieterje Sd, the best
known Holstein in the country. Two
OF the cows are from the farm of DIR.
Miller's brother, in New York state,
and six are from a noted breeder in
Pennsylvania. The eight COWS cost up
in the thousands of dollars. They are
all with calf by thoroughbred bulls, and
their issue must add material value to
the already valuable herd of HolsteIns
of the stock farm. 1t is fortunate for
Barber county that DIR. Miller has such
faith in its future as stock center.

Rosa Anglin, who departed this life
April lS, 1888, was the daughter of ].
IL. and Annie Brown. She was born
June 18th, 1873, in Macon county, Mo-.

county in February, 1884. She was
married to j. S. Anglin July /, 1888, and
in December they moved to the eastern
part of the state; but soon becoming
dissatisfied with their new home they
returned to Hazelton, where they ex.

The Sorghum Sugar Works.

Work on the sorghum sugar plant and
waterworks at this place is progressing
! In the most satisfactory manner The
railroad switch to the works has been
graded and the iron is being laid; the
waste-way for the reservoir and the
waterway to the works has been exca-
waited and the head-gates put in; the
dam for the reservoir is being construct
ed and the foundation for the works is
being laid now. The main building is
60xl60 feet, two and three stories high !;
the engine room, separate, is to be of
brick 50x90 feet; the cane shed is to be
$50 feet long and so feet wide. Besides,
there will be offices, cooper shops,
blacksmith and repair shops, warehous-
es, storerooms, etc. The construction
of the machinery is progressing rapidly
at Cleveland, Ohio; but as every part of
it is to be brand new and of especial de-
sign. it Will take time to have it COM
pleted.
AS has been mentioned before, this
mill is to be the largest in the world,
having capacity for working $50 tons
of cane per day. 1t is now calculated
that the working season will last, this
year, more than 100 days. There will
be planted within radius of five miles
of this city, two thousand five hundred
acres of sorghum cane. To raise and
deliver this will give employment to a
small army of men, and as the factory
will employ, daily, over 100 hands,
wages, alone. Will be quite an item to
this city. The cane raisers cannot hope
to do all of their own hauling, so they
will have to call in help and teams from
other parts of the county.
The lake, or natural reservoir, being
put in order by the sugarworks proprie-
tors, will cover more than seven acres
of ground, and the average depth of the
water will be about six feet--in the GEN.
ter over ten feet. The water win not
be stagnant pond, but VIII be sup
piled and discharged at the rate of z, $50
cubic feet per minute. The supply is
derived from flowing stream of soft
water by way of canal three miles and
a half long. This was built by the city,
| last year.
Eldred & Human, the sugarwerks
promoters and builders, are going about
their work like business men. getting
the best.of material, machinery and Ia
Dor. They have employed, in connec-
ton with the city, D, ]. Aber as their
civil engineer. Their superintendent is
Henry Hinze, a professional who has de-
voted years to the diffusion process in
Germany, and who has made study of
the sorghum industry in this country.
His salary is larger than the governor

move his family to the territory ;. Two
men from Illinois were here last week
trying to buy a valley farm. The pros
poets are too flattering now for farmers
to think of selling land. The Easter
exercises at the Lappin union Sunday
school was the first thing of that kind
ever gotten up in this part of the coun-
try and was highly appreciated by all
who witnessed it. The school house
was beautifully and tastefully decorated
with eyergreens and flowers worked into
crosses, wreaths and suitable notices.
Gates Ajar was pretty picture In the
exercises. a gate trimmed in cedar and
flowers stood ajar. The little girl spoke
the hymn, taking up cross in the third
verse and laying it down at the close to
bear away the crown. An amusing fea-
ture in the decorations was cedar bush
covered with eggshells, with faces pain
ted on them and hooded In quaint little
bonnets made OF ali cnlors of tissue ma

Bellies flutterIng from the top. The
superintendent told the ladies that if
they recognized their likeness they were
welcomed to come and take it. e No,
