I. p. Lemon, OF Union township, had
some fine samples on exhibition andgave
his personal experience with corn in Day
county. This year he raised 81 acres OF
corn that will yield from Is to % bush
els OF shelIed corr per acre. His expert
ence has been that wheat on corr ground
is equal to that on breaking and fully so
per cent. better than on summer fallow.
Mr.. Edwin Knapp who farms Il section
OF land in Husk township, raised 10 acres
OF corn this year and although the crop
is not much he feels satisfied with the
outcome. Mr.. Knapp raised some cane
this year and will raise 10 to 20 acres
the coming year and will be prepared to
work il up.
A rather amusing discussion was held
at the close i'm regard to the manner of
preserving seed corn. One claimed that
seed corn would not keep near wheat;
another that the garrett was the proper
place: and another that the corn from
the crib was what he used.

was anything but harmonious. News
paper men were barred out but it has
leaked out that n lively scrap was indui-
ged in az to whether the party would
put up a county and legislative ticket or
not. Those opposed to a ticket won the
day, but by a slight majority, the vote
standing 16 to II. Az will he seen by
the vote only a few OF the democrats
were present, as two years ago the party
vote was several hundred. There is a

THE CORN CONVENTION.

Inc corn convention came OIL last Sat
urday and was well attended in spite of
the inclemency OF the weather and fully
fifty people were out and took an active
part in the proceedings. The convention
was called to order by j. J. Cowan, of
this city. who explained in a few words,
the objects and cause of the gathering.
A temporary organization was affected
with j.. j. Cowan, chairman, and Fred
W.. Harris, secretary.
The objects of this convention were full
" set forth in the columns of the REpoR-
TER in the call butfor the benefit of those
who may have neglected TO read the par
tIculars they are here set forth again:
The ~advisability and feasibility OF rails
ing corn in Day county and q general
interchange OF ideas and practical infor-
nation concerning the cultivation OF
ORR.
The samples exhibited would have con
WINGED the most skeptical that corn a
and has been raised in Day county and
would reflect credit on most any country.
Chairman COwan read a letter from A.
{. Roberts, OF Pierpont, portions oi
which are here reproduced:
PIERPoNT S. D. Sept. "a, Dear Friend:
| saw the notice of the corn convention
to be held in Webster che Doth of Sept.
and would be glad il circumstances were
such that | could attend as | believe in
working a. though III prosperity as
farmers all depended on u individual
Efforts and voting AZ though it depended
on the kind OF men we send to the Iegis-
lature. | have lived in South Dakotafor
eleven years and raised some corn every
year but one and every year when fall
came have been sorry my acreage was
not larger. In all that time it has not
been injured by frost in the fall but once.
Have raised both dent and flint; the flint
ripens a little earlier and yields much the
best, but ont of respect for the rights of
my back, | have of late years planted
only dent corn. Until this year have
made no use OF the stalks except to turn
the stock on them after the corn was
taken off.
The corn was as heavy as corn will
average in South Dakota, twenty acres
OF it will make 30 bushels of shelled corn
per acre.
Nearly every farmer near me has from
~ to 40 acres in corn, If it was not for
that the poor horses would suffer for
grain in the hong cold winter before us.
| have never heard said 81 am sorry |
planted so much corn"
Corn will be the salvation of this
country. After tools are once provided
there il no cash outlay. / made one test;
bought some hogs weighed them and the
corn fed, and got 10 pounds for each
bushel OF corn. We ought to have as
Il great deal OF nonsense in the papers
about feeding wheat. 1t is a little more
trouble to lie with Il printing press than
with your tongue, but it can bedonejust
the same. / think half wheat and half
corn willmake the better feed, if / can
only have one want corn. =
have found since writing this that it
is Il great deal easier to to farm on paper
like my friends Kelley and Harris than
to perform the actual labor in the dirt
with the wind blowing 40 or 90 miles all
hour.

west of Webster, was the next speaker,
He said; y have Very little TO say about
corn as know very little about this
grain. But the corn l have here was
planted May 9Th to 18th and was ripe
from August 25th to September List.
The reason it was planted was that l
had some old ground that only raised
two bushels oil wheat to the acre and
something had to be done.'
The samples shown were OF the white
dent variety and very fine.
VIM. Kennedy had some yellow corn
called Gold Coin" planted May 2nd, ripe
August 18th. Samples fine.
David Williams reported having con-
versed with several farmers who pro-
nounced it impossible to raise corn in
this county but hoped they would be
present and speak for them selves.
Among the samples OF CORE was a
bunch that resembled cane, but was
called desert corn. This sample was
raised by Geo. Selee, OF Arlover, who
claimed a yield OF from 30 to 40 bushels
per acre.

OF all the selfish and impudent pro-
tests against the Wilson bill, says the y.
y. World, that of the pottery trust is the
most fragrant.
These manufacturers have not only
made an average cut of 10 per cent In
wages months before the bill can pass,
but threaten an additional reduction of
20 per cent in case the Wilson tariff
law''-this by way of driving their work
ingmen to sign petitions and attend
meetings against the reform measure.
Reducing wages il not a new thing
with the Pottery trust. Its members Sc
cured in the Mckinley bill an advance
of the protection on their products
| equivalent to 8 per cent. A portion of
( the combine at Trenton within three
months afterward made reduction of
| 22 per cent in wages, which led to a
long and costly strike. That there was
| no occasion for this any more than there
is for the present outcry over IS per

as to the trust published in the Phila
delphia Press, an extreme Mckinley or
gan This report charged that the trust
is "monopolistic in its tendency" and
that "the effect of it is to limit the pro-
duction and to maintain exhorbitant
prices of sanitary pottery, an article OF
common necessity" That the trus
profted by its monopoly is shown by
facts published in the same connection
including an admission of prominen
stockholders that the profits for 1891
were almost one-third of the capita
stock invested" and averaged 22t to 29I
per cent. upon IA favorable valuation
This is but sample of the combina-
tions which, after being accorded in tn,

Business improving.

CHICAGO, Feb. 12.-Business is rapid
ly improving, viewed from the stand
point of the clothing manufacturers of
this city, who employ $4,000 wage
earners. The manufacturers shut down
almost without exception, when the
country began to feel panicky last sum
mer. Some were closed only a few
weeks, others did not manufacture for
months All now have more men at
work than at any time since the tinan-
cial stringency was felt. Stocks of cloth
are very low. The mills cannot posi-
bly, supply the demand for many lines
of cloth. 1t is said to be fact tnat
clothing manufacturers cannot get all
the cloth they want simply because the
mill owners did not make it.
The generally good feeling in the
trade is well voiced by Hirt, Schaeffner
& Marx, who say: business is improv
ing steadily now. 1t will be a good
thing to have the tariff settled soon, of
| course, but | think any effect the bill
may have is already discounted. Tn,

Caught In a Crash.

WILKEsBARRE, Pa, Feb. 13.-An ex,
tensive cave-in occurred at the Gaylord
mine of the Kingston Coal company at
Plymouth this morning.
A large number of miners and labor
ers were at work under a section OF the

After a shot had been fired, and VIII
out any warning whatever, the roof
consisting of rock and coal, fell with
heavy crash. 1t is not known AS YET
whether any of the men were killed out
right by the falling debris, but IT Is
known that Is of them are hemmed In
one of the gangways.
The air supply is now shut off, ana
the chance of living for any length OF

FARMERS have been required by the
laws of the land, says the st. Lous Re
public, to squeeze along with free trade
prices for their products. The demand
for their surplus has been diminished by
restrictions on exchanges and 10y the
habit the tariff trusts have acquired of
running on short time and throwing la
Dor out of employment.
BY splendid majority the House of
representatives has spoken for the farm
ers and nonprotected masses of the
country.
Before another harvest the law will be
improved and the masses will get some
of the benefits of tariff reform.
Manufacturers will begin to provide a
better home market for agricultural pro-
ducts by exporting Il surplus and en-
ploying more labor. 1t is trade which
gives to any kind of labor its highest
rate of earnings. Manufacturing labor
will receive more after protection disap-
pears entirely from the tax system.
The vote of Thursday in the House
was vote for the profits of American
industry.

Some years ago George Bowers. an
eccentric old resident of Ancora, Camden

greater part of which he willed to Mr..
George for dissemination of his book.
Relatives contested the will and ftiga-
ton ate up all the fortune except the
money paid to Mr.. George to-day.
Bowers widow not being able to obtain
even her dover, was obliged to go to the
almshouse, where she died of broken
heart some months ago. Mr.. George
offered TO let the widow have a generous
amount of the legacy, but the other
heirs refused.

BOOms In business.

Business is picking up with great ra-
pidity in the cotton and wooden mills In
Worcester county. Last September 4o2
sets of wooden machinery were idle In
the county. These when running gave
employment to l0,OO0 operatives. whose
monthly wages aggregated SfuU,UUU.
Now every cotton mill in the county Is
running, and only 154 sets of woolen
machinery are idle. Only about 5000
hands are now out of work
Scott Il Wheelock's five set mill In
Bridge will start up tomorrow. Every
wooden mill in the city OF Worcester eX-
cept that of the Harrison Woolen Com
pany, which is in insolvency, Is run
ming.
All the mills in Cherry Valley, be-
tween Worcester and Leicester, are run
ming full time except Mann Bros fac
tory, which is putting in forty hours 8
week. The big Slater mills at Webster
which employ about 1000 hands, are
now running. The three mills AT Atho
are all running.
