It Did Have a Serious Look.

There was once man who had a
wooden leg. The man was an officer in
the Union army. He had lost his leg
at Sharpsburg. But the wooden leg
was such good one that its owner
still passed for a biped, even among
some of his intimate friends.
One day runaway negro, contra
band, strolled into camp, and the officer
engaged him as his body servant.
After looking long upon the wine one
night at little dinner, the officer came
home to his tent. He called his contra
band to help him pull off his boots.
Now, SAM" he said, ''be careful.
One of these boots is tight, and it most
pulls my leg out to get it off. Besides.
feel rather flimsy."
"I'se allus keerfal, boss,' replied
Sam, and he carefully removed the first
boot.
When the contraband began to pull
at the other boot the officer loosened
the straps of the wooden leg little.
Sam pulled hard and things came with
rush.
There! There! I told you to be
careful" shouted the ofider as the leg
came off. 81 was afraid you'd pull that
leg Off"
Sam saw the leg protruding from the
top of the boot which he had pulled off.
His eyes bulged out like a Holsters,
and he yelled just once as he sprung
for the door.
"Lemme 60. femme go!" he shrieked,
as he dashed through the group out
side. 81 never done muffin, fore Gawd
never done nufin!" And he was still
yelling when he disappeared. They
never saw him in camp again.

MY BABY Doa.

Gone fore'r is my baby darling.
To my embrace he comes no more;
The sweetest joys and hopes the foadest
OF a mothers heart, alas. are Ger
Joys of the present, sweetest nature,
A mothers love for her only son;
Hopes the fondest INDUCED by woman
Oflaurels which he might have won
Gone for aye is my baby darling,
Pluck'd like flower at early morn,
While yet the dewdrop sparkeled on it,
From the parent stem it has been torn.
o, my darling, how / miss thee!
Can e'er my heart be reconciled
To giving UP my little flower?
To giving Jesus back nay child?
I saw thy bright blue eyes grow dim,
saw the lids closed down in death,
And kissed those lips all pale and cold,
So lately red with fragrant breath.
Thy dimpled hands clasped on thy breast.
In stately shroud saw thee arrayed,
Saw thee adorned with lovely flowers
And in thy snow-white casket laid.
Thy clustering hair of shining brown
Lay on brow like marble white,
And thy snowy breast was still, 30 still!
o. baby Don! my my hearts delight!
1t broke my heart to see thee thus,
But yet know thou art not dead;
Twas but the temple of the soul
Which from its mansion now has fed.
Now, baby Don, o, where art thou?
Where are all thy baby charms?
Need thy mamma be afraid, love,
That thou shalt ever come to harm?
No! thou dwell'st among the angels
In the land by seraphs trod,
With the Savior who hath reckoned
That such is the kingdom of God.
o, baby Donald, how miss thee!
Words can't explain, nor can tell
How long to hear thy prattle,
See that sweet face loved SO well;
Now mann mas arms are o, SO empty,
Since baby Don has gone away.
Gone are all the pleasant duties
Which once SO sweetly filed the day.
Thou hast been my sweet companion,
Both in the sunshine and the rain;
With thy baby smiles and graces,
Soothed away each piercing pain.
And when far from home wandered
Close kept thee to my side,
AS if by thy silent council
Thou could'st help me stem the tide.
Stem the tide of dread misfortune
Which seemed ever rolling on,
Rolling on to drown my pleasure,
Even yet e'er they were born.
No baby feet now come to meet me,
No baby arms my neck entwine,
No baby lips to murmur Mamma"
No baby eyes look into mine.
Yet sometimes at fall of twilight.
When nature all seems hushed and still,
When memories OF the by-gone days
Come crowding up my thoughts to fill,
Does not my darling hover near me,
With angel eyes so soft and meek7
Does the rustic of his snow-white wing
Fer fan my flushed and fevered CHI eek7
Aye, in the silent hour of midnight,
When all the world is wrapped in gloom,
When restless on my couch toss
Does not his presence fill my room?
Or do d cam that my babe comes
And takes his old place by my side.
Nestles down to my aching heart,
Causing the anguish to subside.
o, could pierce that misty veil
Which twixt us now is ever spread,
Gaze on the fathomless beyond
Where mortal feet dare not to tread,
My baby Don know I'd see
In matchless splendor, glory bright.
For somewhere in the realms of space
My darling surely dwells tonight.

Cheese Factory.

Having made cheese for fourteen years
allow me to say a few words to help the
the good work on OF starting the cheese
factory.
We are handling the milk from our
COWS at loss. A good COW worth keep
ing on the farm should be worth from
$50 to $50, the keeping Of said COW is
worth at least Sc for one year. the in
terest ON the money invested at 12 per
cent $500. taxes about6O cents. We
have sum total OF $3.50. If we sell
the calve in the fall for about SO we find
our investment a loosing business. |
will give you an estimate OF what an or
dinary COW will do IN having the milk
made into cheese. The calve when four
Weeks aid should y. per
month, and 800 pounds per month fer
the months OF August, September and
October making a sum total OF 2,7OO
pounds. With the present prices OF
cheese the milk should net the farmer a
cent pound. Instead OF S8 we have
$50 from said COW. am OF the opinion
that 200 cows can be ranged and MIXED
in Rapid City for parties living a lone
distance from Rapid City and still leave
good profit for the farmer. Cheese car
be stored after the first OF August
for winter use.
The best dairy papers claim that 9
COW must give 5000 pounds Of milk pei
year but we must put our estimate low
and then we will not be disappointed.

The Proposed Cheese Factory.
The UNION had pleasant call this
week from Mr.. Carpenter, the gentleman
who intends reopening the cheese factory
in Rapid City
During the cnurce sof his o9yersatiois tiois,l
which was listened to byseyeral Farmers,
who happened in at the time. Mr.. Car
penter stated that il satisfactory ar
Irangements could be concluded twas
his intention to begin operations some
time in April; that it would need about
four hundred head OF COWS within a
radius OF seven miles OF the city; that he
proposed gathering the milk twice day
and that the price he can afford to pay
is seventy-fve cents per erhupdred pounds,
taken from the door OF the rancher.
This price ls for eight months OF the
year. Replying to a point made by a
practical dairyman who was present,
Mr. Carpenter said that while SIX and a
quarter cents per gallon might appear a
low price for September and October
milk, it was a high one for May and j une.
He thought the average about right. 1t
is the intention to make butter also.
A free exchange OF views on this SUBJ
ject would prove ofinterest, SO the UNION
throws It's colums open to auv OF it's
readers, who desire to write ON the ques-
ton.

Meade County Notes.

Under existing laws a number OF unor-
ganized counties are attached to Meade
county for the levy and collection OF taxes
therein, and for judicial purposes. Our
news papers published here advocated
the passage OF tins act, and after it be-
came a law gave thanks to the grand old
parties for the benitits conferred by it.
Those who had lost all confidence in
the old parties and their papers suspec-
ted at the tune that some new yilliany
against the tax PAYERS, had been enacted
into law and that for it money had been
paid TO these papers and recreant legis-
lators for the treason done. This act
provides that "no assessment shall be
made or taxes collected insuch unorgan
lied countles for other than state pur
poses" 80 by 1T, the tax payers Of thit
county pay yearly thousands Of dollars
4 the cost Of prosecuting civel and criini
i nal cases originating in those counties
