Heard on the street.

A suggestion was made by a
business man the other day in
regard to sewerage for the town.
He said: II understand the city
is expecting TO tile the waste
water from the artesian wells TO
the creek. 1t would be better t6
run sewer through main street.
from the wells, on to the creek
north Of town, thus getting rid
of the well water, and at the
same time drain the town"
That looks like a practical
suggestion. All agree that it is
only a question OF time when
Miller must have a sewer system,
for the health and comfort other
citizens, and why not begin by
laying ~ sewer through main
street, to he made generally use
full, instead OF just carrying of
the well water to the creek west ?
A sewer system through Main
street would be worth $50 to
every lot now occupied on the
street, and would add more than
that value to each lot.
The pioneer press. (Miller, Hand County, S.D.) 1893-190?, 1902-11-27

Who will he the first to put up
a brick business block in Miller?
The amount of business done
here, the towns location, the
big county back OF it, the I'M
questioned permahency of prop
erty values, its growing import
ance, all warrant theinvestmeut.
Good property always rents or
sells. Poor property, shacks
and old frame buildings must
take their chances iof renting or
selling, orof being burned. Good
brick property is not only safer,
but always in demand.
Cement walks will strike Miller
the coming season. Other towns
have them, and would have no
other.
Plate glass fronts are being
talked abont for several store
buildings the coming spring.
A great deal of building is al
ready being talked about for
next spring and summer. Bigger
houses and better will be the rule
in the new buildings. In fact
improvements OF private prop
erty i'm trees, lawns, buildings,
etc, is already being generally
noted bv every one who comes
to town. But public property is
not keeping pace. Miller Is a
growing town, sure to make a
good business town supported
by a large territory, and the time
has now arrived to improve the
public thoroughfares. Good
streets, well lighted, good side
walks, clean alleys, mud holes
drained, culverts and crossings
properly put in to, carry off
water is the need of every good
town.
Is Miller ready for these COM
forts and conveniences?
Whenever her citizens say it
shall be done, it will be done.

IMPROVE THE BROOD MARES.

We think the great reason why so
many ordinary horses are bred on the
farm comes from relying wholly upon
the stallion and paying little attention
to the character and breeding of the
mares. In horses uniformity is worth
money in the market, especially in
those of good class, whether they are
heavy dIaughts or carriage teams, and
you cannot get uniformity in any
produce except through kindred blood.
You cannot breed a mare of Percheron
and trotting blood and another with
coach, Clydesdale and trotting blood
to the same stallion and get pair
of matched colts. Nature will not be-
lie herself, and she has declared so
often and emphatically that like
produces like, and what you SOW so
shall you reap, that it is useless to
attempt longer to do the impossible.
So, the first thing farmer should
do when he starts raising horses is to
get brood mares of the class he wants,
and with more or less of the blood of
the breed he proposes breeding them
to-the more the better. This will
be found equally advisable whether
he proposes raising draughts, carriage
horses or roadsters. And.such mares
should not be matched haphazard,
but after careful examination of the
stallion and. his breeding, and of some
condemn stallion because he gets
some poor colts until you examine
their dams. AS rule yon will find
most of the trouble is with the mares,
not the horse, although of course,
there are worthless stations of all
breeds Michigan Farmer.

COAL MINE DISASTER.

Vancouver, B. c., May "a. One of
the most terrible mine disasters in the
history of the frequent accidents in
British Columbia, occurred Friday
night in the Crows Nest Coal COM
pany's mines, at Fernie. B. O. Over
100 men are either dead or imprisoned
in the mine and little hope is enter
tanned of rescuing any who may yet
be alive Fernie is 300 miles up coun.
try and the limited telegraph facili-
ties have not enabled complete details
of the disaster to be sent out. A spe-
cial today from Fernie says that the
explosion took place last night at 80.
The true cause of the disaster will
probably not be positively ascertained
for it is doubtful if any man who
knows will ever reach the outer air
alive or be able to tell the tale
