The Kimball graphic. (Kimball, Brule County, Dakota [S.D.]) 1883-1905, 1894-05-12
A new plate glass front has been put

0AdS SOs tllS
week, an improvement which is simply
out of sight. 1t will give the firm the
handsomest little store going. The
GRAPHIC is glad to note these enterpris-
ing features by our business men.
Outside the fruit district in California
where everything is raised by irrigation,
winter is the growing season and early
summer the curing time. The winter
rainfall was six inches less than the
average and there is avery poor prospect
for small grain.
The school board has offered Professor
Savage 1872 q month for another year.
but no formal acceptance or refusal has
yet been made. TIE board has engaged
Mrs. j. B. Long to teacll the intermediate
department and reengaged Miss Amy
Beebe.
Friends sending copies Of papers to the
GRAPHIC will greatly oblige us by plain
ly marking items to which it is wished
to call our attention. Every week such
papers come and unless the items are
marked we are more than likely not to
find them.
Fried ice cream is a new culinary
wrinkle. A small cake of solidly frozen
ice-cream is encased in a thin covering
of pie crust and then dipped in boiling
lard or butter long enought to cook the
outside. If served Immediately the ice
cream will remain solid.
The Merchants Carnival under tile
auspices of the ladies of the Presbyterian
church takes place the goth. Active
preparations are taking place, About
forty young ladies and misses will take
partin the carnival. They are being
drilled by W. I. Drips.
NJ. r.. Covey, ex-represeutative from
this county, stands in with the Chicago
Tammany. He has secured the position
of day Waterman in Lincoln Park for
the summer. The pay is $50 a month
with nothing to do but patrol the ground.
Mr.. Coyey left Wednesday morning.
We drove out to the Waldro we'll for
the first time a few evenings since. The
we'll is even a better one than we were
prepared to find. 1t is nicely located and
three streams are running from it in as
many directions. 1t is considerable work
to keep the bitches clear from tumble
weeds.
The GRAPHIC is endorsed by the press
and the pulpit-and by everyone else
whose opinion is of any consequence.
If you arr not getting it you are behind
the Brule county times. Try 1t a while
and you will cling to it like two girls to
one another with a tramp pounding on
the back door.
Mrs. Wallace Jones, nee Leach, arrived
from Maine last week and was a guest
OF MI. and Mrs. Louis Richards for a few
days. Her father came down from
Buffalo county after her Tuesday. Wal
lace died about two years ago. He was
one OF the pioneers of Kimball, a jolly,
good hearted boy. and liked by everyone,
OF course it would have been impossi-
BILE for Mr.. Blodgett and Mr. Snyder 10
have preambulated around Los Angeles
without running across William Frank
lin. BILLY" took the best of care of them
and spared no pains to make their sight
seeing delightful. He is as well and
happy as usual and at present helping
his sons out or contract work,
When n sees the cases upon cases,
boxes and tubs heaped high with eggs in
the Kimball stores the wonder is that
eggs are not even lower in price. and it
is the same in every town in the state,
and TO a large extent all over the west,
1t would appear at first thought that
South Dakota can supply the world with
the product of the American hen. Last
week a firm in Mitchell received in one
day 10000 eggs, and four carloads were
shipped from that town in one day the
same week.
Stallion service fees never were so low
in the history Of the country, and the
condition applies to all grades of horses.
The reason for it is not because of the
low price of horse flesh but because the
standard Of excellence has been raised
Considering the very low prices for
which the services Of really good sires
cen be obtained the breeder is extremely
foolish to use any but the best. FIVE OF
ten dollars difference in the service fee
is more than likely to make fifty dollars
difference in the value of the three-year,
old. 1t costs as much to raise one as the
other
Making garden is something like
counting chickens before they are
Matched. Results sometimes do not jibe
with expectations. If there is one thing
more than another that will prompt a
man to utter cuss words 1t is to fnd his
garden some fine morning a scene of do.
VISITATION through the operations OF q
%critter lose in the night. The only way
to avoid such a calamity is to fence the
garden patch with some Of the woven
wire fencing now so cheap and on sale
at the hardware stores. -Four or five dol.
lars will furnish the material and do the
work for an ordinary garden. Such q
fence is not only proof against stock, but
against dogs, cats, hens and other pests
OF garden sass, but such a fence will
last almost a life time, and the satisfact,
ion Of reaping when you have sow il
worth not n little.
