supreme Court Decisions.


The supreme court in it opinions handed
down at Pierre has ruled on case which
is of interest to every foreign corporation
which transacts business in this state.
The decision, which was written by Judge
Fuller in the case Of Bradley, Metcalf &
Co. VS.. John Alslrong. The appellants,
a foreign corporation, attached property
belonging to Arstrong, and the case was
one Of series Of attachments of the prop
erty Of the defendant which were all
argued and submitted together. One of
the grounds in the motion to dismiss the
attachment was that Of the right of q
foreign corporation to bring lsuit when it
had failed TO comply with the statutes
controlling such corporations in the state,
and the opinion is as follows:
"That the plaintiff is foreign corpora
tion and has not complied with the laws
of the state of South Dakota in regard to
filing with tile Secretary of State copy
Of Its articles of incorporation, nor has it
appointed resident agent upon whom
services can lie had in tile state of South
Dakota, as provided by tile laws of said
state in relation to foreign corporations,
nor at all.'
The lower court dissolved the attach.
ment and is sustained in its action by the
supreme court which considered but this
one assignment Of error in the appeal.
Merchant Charged with Burglary
John Haviatko, q dealer in second hand
goods at Mitchell, was bound over to the
circuit court on a hearing for having
brokon into carpenter shop. Havlatko
has been under suspicion for the past
year as being receiver Of stolen goods.
When he broke into the carpenter shop
he cut his hand on window and the
blood marks led to his house, which being
searched revealed a large quantity Of
stolen goods, such as fur coats, silk
goods, clothes, etc. A quantity Of the
goods stolen from the Mitchell Dry Goods
Company two weeks ago we're also found
in his house. Havlatko's arrest will
break up the numerous robberiss which
have been going on there for six months
past.

Cattle BUYERS at Pierre.

There are more foreign cattle buyers in
the yards at Pierre than for any past year.
IL has been the custom for cattle buyers
to send out buyers to the range to solicit
cattle for shipments only and have the
cattle consigned to their lines for salc..
But this year it is different. The yards
are full OF buyers who purchase outright,
and very few small shippers are scnding
in their cattle. They can secure satisfac-
tory prices without going to tile market,
and make their sales OH the spot. This
system seems far more satisfactory to cat
tie raisers and will undoubtedly be the
rule instead of the exception in future
years. One thing which d ID probably more
the demand for feeders, which are taken,
to Iowa to be corn fed before being taken
to the Chicago market. There is scar
city of this class of cattle in Iowa, and
buyers from that section come to Pierre
to secure their feeders. This forced all
into the same method, and only the heav-
ier shippers are. taking their cattle
through. OF the shipments SO far made
this fall large per centage has gone to
Iowa as feeders, an occurrence which has
been very rare in past years.
Bright Outlook for Wheat.
Buyers in Sioux Falls recently paid III
cents for wheat, a rise of 10 cents busliel
in the last few months. Not a vast
amount of wheat is being marketed at
present figures, as the farmers are firmly
OF tho opinion that the advance has come
to stay and that the outlook is for higher
prices yet. The rise came before many
farmers had sold. There are hundreds of
stacks which have not yet been threshed
and III is nOt thOuyht that on nor cent nf

over the stiifening price and: see light

CLASSIFYING HONE,

riety Separate.


riety Separate.
Better results in every way can be Sc
cured II care is taken to keep each
variety of honey separate as it is made
through the season.
This is readily accomplished with ex-
tracted honey, and, TO u certain extent,
with comb honey. Generally, the first
surplus honey obtained is from fruit
blossoms. While, usually, fruit bloom
does not afford much surplus, occa-
sionally it does, and sometimes quite
quantity is collected. After this it is
often possible TO secure a considerable
surplus from the different briar bios
SONS, and this is nearly always of a
finer quality than apple and peach BIOS
SONS that follow. The next surplus Of
any quantity is white wood, or poplar
blossom. This, among beekeepers, is
considered the second best flow OBJ
tnined through the season, and this,
although not so clear and beautiful, is
very popular in the market, being al
most as much in demand as clover
honey. White clover furnishes the
best honey that is collected. 1t is GER
tainly the finest looking. Following
clover comes bass, or linn wood. Gem
orally the flow from bass wood is much
heavier and is only second to clover in
quality. Sumach, which follows, gives
a beautiful goldcn-colored honey, but
tastes of the shrub it is gathered from.
Ono advantage with it is that it rarely
fails to give at least a fair crop.
Either when extracted or sold in the
comb care should be taken not to allow
il to remain in the hives for any con-
siderable time after it is sealed over,
as there is always the risk of its being
soiled, at least in color, if allowed to
remain in the hive. Like nearly all
other products, its appearance is always
an important factor in selling to the
best advantage. This is another good
reason for keeping each class separate.

The hams are first vigorously rubbed
with saltpeter and then with salt. In
order to prevent the spelling Of the
hams as many cuts as can be prudently
made are made near the bone and
strewn with saltpeter and salt, says the
New England Farmer. The hams thus
cured are pressed in a pickletun and
entirely covered with cold salt lye. Ac-
cording to their size hams should re-
main in salt from three to five weeks.
After this the hams are taken out of the
pickle and hung up in a shady but dry
and airy place in order TO become "air

OIL OF SASSAFRAS.
said to BE Sure Death to Lice on Young
and Old Chickens.

and Old Chickens.
Yes, sir, oil of sassafras will kill lice
on old and young chickens, and if you
think it worth publishing l will give
your readers some more of my expert
ence with the oil, says a correspondent
to the Poultry Keeper.
All who are raising chickens know
that the greatest trouble with young
chicks is the large gray head Iouse,
which kills more chicks than any dis
ease they are afflicted with.
l cannot agree with some of your
readers who are advocating the use OF
lard to kill lice on little chicks, as L
have killed about as many with the
lard as l have saved from lice. For lit
tie chicks the sassafras oil beats any
patent medicine yet invented. After
finding that the use of the oil n the
food will kill the pest on grown
chickens, l tried it on chicks. When
ever 1 set n hen give her every third
day ten drops of oil in little bran or
meal until she is through setting. AS
soon as the chicks are two days old,
give the hens and the chicks a fourth
of teaspoonful twice week. 1 have
at present GO chicks five weeks old, and
they are the finest looking lot / ever
had. l prefer sassafras oil over every
thing | have ever tried for lice for the
following reasons: First, it is no trou-
lie at all to use it, as it is given in the
food; second, there is no danger of
killing any chicks with it; third, there
is no handling of the chicks. Kerosene
emulsion is excellent. l tried it as soon
as found it would kill lice, and it is
excellent TO put in whitewash used for
the hen house.

CRY SOLDIERS Are BEST.
Modern Warfare Is Easiest Learned
by Them.

The old saying of the recruiting SER
geants that "the best soldiers come
from the plow-tail' is hardly correct
when looked at in the light of modern
military experience. II is quite true
that in the past regiments recruited
from the country districts have again
and again made themselves conspicuous
for gallantry and endurance, but the
changed conditions Of modern warfare
appear to have enabled the town-bred
soldier TO rather more than catch up
with his country-bred comrade. Sta
tistics show that he is more rapidly
promoted, that he is more fertile in re-
source, more adaptable TO circulu-
stances and quicker in learning the de-
tails of his business, while the improved
conditions Of town life seem to have
placed him nearly on a par with regard
to stamina. In France there are no
two opinions ON the SUBJECTIVE best
soldiers come from Paris; and when it
is remembered that after the practical
destruction of the regular French army
at Metz and Sedan the victorious vet
Grams Of Germany were held at bay for
five months by the raw levies mostly
drawn from the French towns, there
seems but little doubt that the French
opinion is correct.
