The Contests Ended.

After n couple OF pustponements

ed court in special term and took up
the Bowman and Cree versus Olson
and Struiff contest eases, involving
the Offices Oftleasurer and sheriff OF
Hand county. The votes o!20town-
ships were counted first upon the OF
fee OF treasurer, and II few changes
were made. The main point OF
change being in counting votes for a
straight ticket where the voter check
ed "a name on another ticket and
fai ed to erase the name on his own
ticket. At one tine during the count
Mr.. Bowman was one vote ahead OF
Mr.. OlPsOn, but upon the final count
OF the 20 townships Mr.. Oleson was
found to ~ just two votes ahead OF
Mr.. Bowman.
The Cree-Struif case was thereupOn
dismissed, because Sheriff Strut WAS
81 ahead to begin with, while treas
urer Oleson was only ii ahead at
the start, so there was no need OF
going any further.
And so ends the long drawn out

Feeding Wheat TO Hogs.

Last week the PRESS published an
item from the Waterfowl Public
Opinion, wherein a farmer stated
that he had obtained so cents per
bushel for his wheat by feeding it to
hogs. This item has occasioned con-
siderable talk among farmers and
stockmen, and we have not yet met
a single oae who has realized any
whert near such results. a number
in Hand county have carefully ex-
perimented in this matter, and posi-
lively assert that it cannot be done
at the present price OF pork.
Some OF those spoken to upon the
matter say they made a little by
feeding wheat, Others say they could
have sold their wheat direct and got
as much, while one farmer thought
he lost Il few cents per bushel. All OF
them insist that the parties who are
talking OF making 80 cents out OF 40
cent wheat. are mistaken in some
particulars; that they have either
fed something else with wheat, or
faiied to count some item of expense.
