Many Of u readers have a great
deal at stake in the wheat crop of
1898. The acreage is now pretty
we'll established at 43, 600, 900 acres,
as compared with 80, 465, 900 acres
last year, or an increase Of $500, 900
ere AS throwing light on the
probable yield, we call attention to
the average yields of the last thirty
two years. The lowest yield re-
ported was in 1896 being go bu-
shells per acre. The next lowest
was in 1881, which gave US 1912 bu-
shells, The yields of 1876 and 1885
were 1914 bushels; 1875, 1888 and
1890 gave US Ill bushels; 1876, 1871
and 1883 gave us l1.6 bushels and
1891 gave US 1873 bushels. All the
remaining years gave us II and ID
bushels and fractions therefore, no
crop saving that Of 1891 reaching ID
bushels Or over. A crop of ID bu-
shells 0 II over, thereof, under present
conditions and in the light of past
history is very improbable. This
would give us about 600, OOO, 900 bu-
shells of wheat this year, which is
nearly 100, coo, 900 in excess Of any
crop reported by the department
Of agriculture in the last thirty
years. In view of these corsidera-
tions, together with the brisk for
eign demand, and the factthe gran

Body of a Missing Man Found.

DeadWood, 5. u. July 26.-
Special: About four years ago a
mar named Oliver Kilgore, a horse
raiser. suddenly disappeared from
his home at Sundance over in Wyo-
ming. The man was very we'll
known and was worth considerable
money. A careful search was made
at the time Of his disappearance,
but no trace was found of the mis-
sing man until one day this week
when a mans body was found near
the 1O1 ranch, which has been posi-
lively Unidentified as that of Kilgore.
There we're those at the of the mans
disappearance who believed that
foul play was the cause Of the my
stery. Kilgore's body was found
in a secluded draw, and the skele-
ton was intact with exception Of the
upper part of the skull, which APP
pears to have been mashed in by a
heavy weapon. The time of the
mans disappearance was in Deem
Der, and it was generally reported
that he had been frozen to death
and his body lost in the Belle Four
che river. There is considerable
excitement in the vicinity Of Sun
dance and arrests OF certain parties
may follow.

Prof. Saunders, of the state agri-
cultural college at Bookings, has
discovered a method of successfully
dieasing what is known as the green
plant bug, SO that death results
within from seven to ten days after
exposure to infection. The expert
ment is proving very successful, and
a substation for the free distribution
of the diease bugs has been establish
ed at Edgerton. Last season these
bugs were very destructive to small
grain, chiefly wheat on some farms
in the southern part of the state.
In Charles Mix county the damage
was between 5000 and 1000 acres,
but not so severe this season in any
locality. The bug is about half an
inch long and when fully grown has
wings and is of a deep green color,
emitting a ~disagreeable odor when
crushed. When taken into the
stomach of cattle they usually pro-
duce death. Two quarts of them
have been taken from the stomnch
of a single steer. Stock
eat them with forage. Farmers are
obtaining infected bugs from Prof.
Saunders, at Bookings, free of cost,
and are letting them fly where the
green bug swarms. 1t is thought
that the method now being used
will eradicate the pest the present
season, as it thrives best at the
time wheat is in the milk, piercing
the stalk and sucking the juice and
very seldom feeding upon the blades.

A National Error.
BLACK HILLS UNION:

EDITOR BLACK HILLS UNION:
AS an American citizen VINO feels
most deeply interested in the well
fare Of the United States and the
advancement of the white ace | re-
gret from the depths Of my heart
that the government to which I pay
tribute and fondly respect devotes
so much time and money to the So
called improving OF the condition of
the black ace in foreign lands, and
this in the face of dire distress we'll
worthy of assistance, but neglected,
here in our own country.
A rigid classification of the races
should be insisted upon at all times.
He would be a pitiful object who
would deny it. The destiny of our
race depends largely upon the exist
ing generation and I ask all true
men if it is fair for us to assist in
the retrogression of our own race,
and that in the quickest and worst
way possible? The presence of sew
eral millions of black people, cou-
pied with the recent acquisition of
several million more, makes me
alarmed for the future of the white
race. Shame on a government that
insists on allying us with a race so
intensely foreign to u nature, or
the blending of two conditions of
humanity sc distinctly separate as
white and black! The existence of
SO many millions of mulattos is suf-
.ticient evidence of the injury or
crime to which I refer.
I will cite one instance which will
perhaps better serve to illustrate
my point: There are in the city of
Chicago 10000 negroes employed in
the capacity of walters in the lead
ing cafes, hotels and restaurants.
Between the hours of midnight and
and seven o'clock the next morning
there are 10000 white women and
girls down on their knees, un-
der the feet of this army of negroes,
scrubbing the floors of these same
hotels, restaurants and cafes.
Where is the advancement? I chal-
lenge the world to show me.
Charity should begin at home and
for government to donate one
dollar abroad until every case of
distress worthy of assistance here
at home is provided for is an insult
to justice and the heroes to whom
we W everything.
