Perhaps a few words from one
of the dusty's i'll regard to the
selection of corn for milling pur-
poses would not come amisS. In
our fifteen years of experience as
a miller, we are forced to the con-
clusion that most persons, who
take corn to mill, are to say the
least very careless, about what
they take. And few if any seem
to know, or think that there
might be a difference in variety.
Still they wonder why they do
not get the good old fashioned
soft meal Of Olden time. OF
course at some of the larger eX-
elusive corn mills where they
have facilities for steaming and
otherwise tempering it might not
matter so much. But at most of
the rural mills corn is @rodned in
its natural state, and in that case
some of the softer varitieS will
make much the incest SoftcSt
meal, while it is almost impos-
Sible to make a good table meal
from some OF the hard or flint
varitieS. Above all be careful
in Smelling to avoid all smut tips
or damaged ears, as such when
mixed with the corn will not fan
out. And silks are nearly as
hard to remove. fear that some
think it does not matter what
they take to mill, as they will
have it exchanged But in that
they are likely to come to grief,
at least at our mill, as we iuvari-
ably grind grists iii turn as they
come, Therefore if you'd like
the best give the miller a chance.
Respectfully,
h. H. SARGENT.

Mr.. J. f.. Adamson of Broken

of independent telephon exchang-
es was in Lincoln last week.
They are endeavoring to bring
concerted pressure to bear on the
Legislature for telephone legisla-
ton. They suggest a bill COM
polling the various exchanges to
connect up for toll line business
instead of necessitating the
repetition of messages as is now
the case.

Chancellor Andre ws in the lee
ture before his class in practical
ethics on the Public Duty in the
Matter of Charity said in part:
sin the Middle Ages many church
people were animated to give as
way of getting to heaven and
there were always those who
were willing to receive that they
might go to hoavcn, nor is the
world entirely free from this
spirit to-day. The pain and woe
of the world is increased by Civ
ing just because people ask for it.
When a man receives aid there is
a great incipient breakdown in
his moral and economic charact ter.
Organizing the charities of a
community is a great step for
Wdlu III llS CCoHOIllC culture,
1t prevents overlapping of char,
tiles as when one family is sup,
ported in idleness by aid received
from three or four different
churches or benevolent persons
Children should never be allowed
to beg or to see begging for theil
economic charaities is ruined
should they once get the idea
that it is easier to live through
charity than through work. Al
possible and fesible means should
be used to suppress intemperanct
for it is enormously operative in
producing defective people,
These people must be supported
| by charityor by the state.

Opportunities
in The South

No portion of the United States
has made greater progress in the
last year or two than the South.
Northern and foreign capital is
rapidly invading that section,
finding profitable investment in
the various industries and fac
tories that are being rapidly de
veloped and built. The great
influx of settlers is creating an
increased demand for lands of
all kinds and prices are gradu-
ally advancing, as they will for
years to come. Work is plenti-
full and poverty practically un-
known. Alabama is supplying
coal and iron to all the world.
More money can be made and
with less labor in the raising of
small fruits and berries and i'll
truck patching on the Gulf
Coast than in any other state i'll
the Union. Strawberries from
Alabama reach northern mark
cts before those from the states
i'll the southeast. Cattle can be
raised with great profit, there
being millions of acres of cheap
range lands. If your are inrer-
csted in the south and its re-
sources and desire information
ON any subject, address

The Ak.sar.Be Gold Mining Company.
A Nebraska Mining Company in the Black
Hills. A Splendid Investment.

This is the age of investments
in mining stock. There never was
such a craze for investments of
this sort and fortunes are being
made every day by people who
make the venture.
In the Black Hills, which is
the nearest mining country to
Nebraska points, the processes
used i'll extracting the gold and
silver values from the ore, have
been brought to a point where it
is possible to successfully mine
and mill ore as low as $3.50 per
ton gold. The total expense of
mining the ore and having the
values of silver and gold taken
out does not exceed $500 per ton,
the remainder of the values being
clear profit. This is being done
in a number of mines around
Lead and Deadwood.
A company was organized a
few weeks ago by Nebraska men
for the purpose of building a
cyanide mill and treating a large
amount of this low grade ore.
They called themselves the Ak
Sar-Ben Gold Mining Company
and capitalized for a million and
half shares of stock, with a
par value of one dollar. The
company has acquired about 200
acres of the best mining ground
near the Homesteak and in the
Bald Mountain district, near the
big producers and dividend
payers. Eight miners have been
employed the past few weeks,
just blocking out ore. Enough
ore has already been opened up
to warrant the erection of a 100
ton cyanide plant and just as
soon as the weather will permit,
work on the plant will begin. 1t
will be simply REPETITION of
what a dozen other companies
are doing pay dividends.
The stock in the Ak-Sar-Ben
Company is forever non-assess-
able. 1t is one of the safest in
veStmentS in the Black Hills, at
the present time. There are
thousands of tons of ore, plenty
of timber and water, excellent
management, and dividends for
the future.
