Legislature Are Greatly Above
the Estimates.

PIERRE, S. D., March Z-(Special Tele-
gram.)-The closing hours Of the eighth
legislative session were without exciting
Incident. No pretense Of work was made,
as all bills had been cleared and the men,
bers had merely to wait for the conference
report on two appropriation bills.
The conference reports on the general
bill were presented about 2 o'clock, in
creasing the house bill about $25 900 and
reducing the senate bill about SIS, 900. In
the conference on the appropriation for
payment OF senate employees, the house
amendments we're adopted, that body re-
fusing to recede from its position, and the
clerks we're cut their increase compensa-
ton voted to them a few days before.
At a late hour the bill providing for a
deficiency levy by the State board vas
recalled and the amount increased from
81, 900, 900 to 81. 900, 900. This was necessi-
tated by the increase in appropriations
over estimates.
The best figures cotainable as to total
appropriations show that the general bill
as finally adopted carries 1883, 969. and
the special amount $685. 19. a total of
81, 800, 1859.

Meade county Is being awarded a large
measure of praise among eastern dealers
for its mohair. The best mohair ever
shown Is the description OF q recent ship
ment received in Boston.
Following is an extract from a communi-
cation to the American Sheep Breeder and
Wool Grower by L.. Levussove Of New York.
the largest dealer in mohair goods in this
country:
Il wish to call your attention to the
sample OF mohair which I enclose and
which represents a large quantity bought
by me Of c.. B.. Farwell & Co. Of sturgis.
S. D., with whom Mr.. Polk is associated
in the mohair industry. / paid for it a
uniform rate OF 81 per pound and by ex-
aiming the sample you will find 1t to be
Of a very fine fiber and measuring fifteen
inches in length. t the time l received
this shipment l was surprised that such
good mohalr could be produced in that
state. This certainly shows the great
progress We are making In the mohair
industry. l have often received samples OF
mohair from Bradford, England. supposed
to be the finest to be lad. but 1t never
could be compared with our domestic mo-
hair. Whoever dreamed of it ten or fifteen

first in the production OF the best and
longest mohair? l have often been assured
by breeders that my views were a myth,
they claiming that such long mohair could
not be grown In this country. but the many
shipments | have received from the DIFF
ferent breeders in the past prove that 1t Is
quite possible to raise long mohair, provid-
ing the right method Of breeding, feeding
and caring for the Angora goat is applied"
The paper mentioned then gives a half
tone cut of mohair and says: The sample
shown in the above half-tone is mohair
grown by G. B. Farwell & Co. on the eastern
slope of the Black Hills in South Dakota.
1t is fifteen inches long, the finest hair ever
received at this ONCE, and was taken from
a large consignment, for which Mr.. Levus-
sove Of New York paid, 81 per pound"
While proud Of its achievement with mo-
hair, Meade county does not wish 1t to be
forgotten that it took first prize and gold
medal at the Columbian exposition for the
finest hard wheat raised on the face Of
the earth.
