INCOME OVER $4,000 A YEAR..
%Johnson's Original Farm Investment
Was but $1,000.

l.. f. Johnson. who finished two
terms as register of deeds for Lake
county, several years ago and became
q farmer, reports the most gratifying
results of his experiment. He pur-
chased 480-aCre farm at that time for
s 1000, and the mex season an adJoin-
ing lakebed dried up and gave him ESQ
acres of the alluyial lakebed by ri
parian right. He has just finished
threshing about 10000 acres of grain
which he raised with the assistance of
one hired man, and estimates his crops
worth this year some $4,000. On an
investment of $1,000 for 4S0 acres of
land he now has 730 acres worth 500
600. that yields him an income OF over
S., 900 a year. Klondike and Standard
Oil are faded by the g~littering POSSIBLE
tiles Of peaceful agriculture.
Another star Lake county cabbage
has entered the lists. This n is
ffty-fve inches in circumference and
weighs thirty-two pounds, and was
grown by Mrs. Frank Schultz. Unless
there is well founded objection. Mrs,
Schultz will be awarded the Henry

get them for a certain amount. The
offer was accepted and the stamps re.
turned through Cromwell. Deputy
United States Marshal Lamb and In.
spector Plankert then arrested him
and he was taken to Sioux Falls on
the charge of receiving stolen prop

Following this came the arrest Of a
negro at Ramona, who had been exam.

has decided to tell all he knows about
the case, and that the robbers will be
brought to justice. Other arrests will
no doubt follow, as others are under

Faux Wins After All.

The South Dakota state fair proved
very satisfactory to Faulk county. It's
exhibit was the best and Il first
prize by 81 points. The first reports
from the state fair grounds stated that
Faulk county was placed in a lower
position. This report was caused by
ar error in casting up the points for
the different exhibits. =.
When the first figures were given
out they had not been revised, and an
error existed which the judges and the
board will hasten to correct. The to-
tal figures on the standing and rating
of the several counties which had a
rating at all were as follows, out OF a
possible 1000:
Faulk county go. 751fSpink ........692
Dawson .,...... 716 Bon Homme. .649
Hughes ........ .705IGregory .....4l2
Edmunds. 500
The points of award are a matter OF
record and will stand in the final ad'
iustment of awards and settlement OF
the records. The fact that taulk
county has taken first place is a credit
to that part of the state and speaks
well for the committee, Messrs. Vim.
ton. Chambers and Steele.

COUNTY INSANE ASYLUM.
Experiment Is to Be made in South Da-
kOta,

kota.
The county commissioners of Kings
bury county have decided to make an
interesting experiment, the result of
which will be watched with great in
terest by the people Of every other
county in the state.
1t is proposed to erect a building on
the county poor farm for the purpose
of providing accommodations for such
insane persons living in the county as
can be cared for without the necessity
of sending them to the state hospital
for the insane at Yankton.
The crowded condition Of the latter
and the expense to the county OF
maintaining it's insane patients at the
state asylum are given as the reasons
for the proposed construction Of a
county asylum.
In accordance with the determine
ton of the board, bids will be received
by the county commissioners until Oct.
10 for the erection Of the building. II
these are satisfactory it is probable
the contract will be awarded at once,
SO the work of constructing the build
ing can commence without delay.
In the past the county insane asy-
lum idea has been agitated in several
counties, but this is the first time the
matter has assumed definite form.
If the plan proves successful there
is no doubt that other counties in the
state will also erect, asylums and
strive to care for all or at least a part
of their own insane.

POWDER IN CHIMNEY.
Had Nedwik Cooked His Own Supper

A$pnoc

. The apparently trivial act Of eat
ing a meal down town instead of pre-
pairing it for himself at his bachelor
home saved the life of Frank Newdik,
an inoffensive German of Sioux Falls.
Newdik had been informed that a
mysterious enemy has camped Oh his
trail. He maintains bachelor quarters
in a dwelling which he erected for
himself. He recently decided to en-
large his house, and to do this had to
demolish a chimney. He was unex-
pectedly called away from home be-
fore the chimney had been completely
torn down.
During his absence some unknown
person or persons visited the place.
When Newdik returned he had par.
taken Of a meal down town and with
out delay prepared to resume the work
of removing the chimney.
To his horror he discovered, stuffed
in the fue, oil-sOaked rags, inside OF
which was a sufficient amount of gun.
powder to wreck a large business
block. Had Newdik, upon his arrival
at the house, started a fire to cook
his frugal meal, as was his custom, he
and his dwelling would have been
blown to atoms and great damage done
to adjacent property.
Newdik was not aware that he had
an enemy in the world, and the at
tempt to destroy his life and property
is wrapped in mystery.
