SrIHl,


State Auditors Office, Pierre. S. ID.
To THE PUBLIC:
Numerous complaints come to this
office in regard to persons and companies
violating the insurance laws Of the state,
and while the department. indeavors to
investigate all these reports, they are too
numerous to be attended to in person
from this Office, and in order that the
law may be better enforced and all in
surance companies and agents comply
Herewith, would suggest that all per-
sons securing insurance either life ac-
cldent, fire or any other form ascertain
first whether the solicitor is licensed or
the company authorized to do business
in the state.
By evading the laws companies are
enabled to defeat the state in securing
its just amonntof taxes, and also reduce
the amount OF premiums due TO fire com
panies. All officers entrusted with the
enforcement of law should give this
matter their attention, and all citizens
should report and prosecute any agents
who endeavor to eyate the law.
No one should pay any premium to a
company not authorized to do business
because they are not only violators of
law. but in a position to effpctualIy re.
sist suit in contested cases. Patronize
only legitimate authorized insurance
companies and agents. and do not allow
yourself to become a slgner TO some in.
surance scheme you do not know to be q
legitimate concern duly licensed. Thous.
ands of dollars are being sent away reg.
ularly every year to fake concerns whicl
this department will give information
about upon request. Ask the agent TO,
his license and refuse to pay any premi.
UNI ii ho has none. j. e. Nipple,
Audltc or.

Notice.

10 WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
Diptheria, which Is well known to be
one of the most fatal diseases known, is
now prevalent in this county. Several
homes already mourn those whom time
cannot replace. Had this fearful maIady
been met as it should have been many
homes now in mourning would have
be, blessed with dear oncs buried by a
few loving hands. As | write these
lines, | recall two cases, which. if not
only the principles of law, but of com
mon sense had been complied with in
stead of the hahilimcnts of mourning,
happiness would have prevailed. In
view of what | know to hc common sense

the mercenary ideas Of some few who
would reap personal rewards, although

person may be-high, low, little or big,
the QUARANTINE law will he enforced
to the VERY LETTER in so far as this
county is concerned, even though its Ell.

Let it be a school teacher. doctor. the

a Eool-,aruy Expe,ience

M dis
Fred Hussman, John Crussen aud Gas
Klnmp OF Hawarden, Iowa, took advan-
tage of the holiday excursion rates to
come out aud visit Kaspar Kleinhans
and family. Mr.. Kleinlans' home is in
Lyon township. eight miles north of
Kimbali. IL Vas the intention of the
young men to return Monday, as their
tickets were limited, but the terrific
storm that ragged all day Sunday and
Monday prevented. Ono of them, young
Hussman, was particularly anxious to
reach Kimball in order to catch the
first train east, and came near losing his
life in the attempt. All day Sunday he
insisted upon starting for town, but wa
finally persuaded not to make the effort.
When Monday came and tho storm was
even more furious and with no sign of
a let-nD, young Hussman fretted and
fumed. A few minutes before 5 p. H.,
as the shades OF night were already
approaching, he put on his oyer-coat and
remarked that he guessed he would go
out and take Il look at the cattle. Once
outside he placed his face to the window,
waved his hand in farewell and sang
out:
"GOOd bye, boys; Pm off for Kimball."
Before they could get out into the
binding storm of wind and snow the
foo!-hardy young man had disappeared.
To have gone after him woull have been
at the risk Of their own lives. The storm
subsidized in the night and as soon as
possible next morning young Wendell
Kleinhans and his two guests started
with a team for Kimball to enquire as to
the whereabouts and welfare of their
friend. Passing Il haystack not more
than n mile from the house, they were
startled at a voice calling out:
Take me along"
There on top of the STACK was the OBJ
ject of their search, and almost persisted
from the cold. His shoes were off and
his o%vercoat wrapped around his feet.
He was taken to the house and placed In
bed. Fortunately he was but very little
frozen. One foot was quite badly frosted
and three fingers on one hand, but prob
ably with no serious results to follow.
The young man got lost completely be-
fore he had gene half a mile from the
house. He ran against young Kleinhans'
claim shanty first, in which was a stove
and tireWood. but the door was locked
and in his ratified condition he did not
think to kick it 10. The next object he
struck was the haystack. lie was too
benumbed with cold to ~eXcavate a hole
in the stack, but wisely stayed by it
rather than risk his life at another at
tempt for shelter. 1t was nearly dark
then. and for twelve hours previous it
was impossible to SEQ fifty feet through
the whirling, binding snow, driven with
a GO mile an hour gale. The mercury
did not drop below zero during the night
else the young man might never have
lived to tell his story. lie says not for a
million dollars would he again &C
another experience of the kind. lie has
only been in this country three or fOul
years, which accounts in n measure for
his foolish attempt to go across the
prairie in such a storm. The blizzard
OF 1888 fought u own people a lessor
that they will never forget.

Pork raising naturally goes with
dairying and grain raising, but yet on
account CT the uncertainty OF corn in
this section | think there is a limit to
to the number OF hogs that can profit
ably be kept. 1t seems to me the only
way to raise pork here at a profit is to
keep over winter only brood sows, plan
for April pigs, Keeping not more than
two pigs for each COW. The pigs eau be
cheaply raised through the summer on
the skim milk or whey, with a little
ground feed if they have good pasture,
and should be fattened and disposed of
before winter. Ii winter dairying is
practiced, there will be more milk for
the pigs the following summer than
when summer dairying is carried on,
for if a cow comes fresh in the spring
the calf needs the milk and the pigs
will have to go without.-C. f. Kittinger
