Managing a Husband.

There are plenty of young girls with
out actual experience of life, never
have borne responsibility of any kind,
who, nevertheless, consider themselves
competent to bring up" husband.
The result is often one of the most
astonishing spcctacles the social life of
human beings affords.
A woman who starts out Oh her
matrimonial career with the one idea
of managing her husband generally
manages to make herself so abnormal
ly disagreenble that in the beginning
the foolish man gives in rather than
cross her, which course emboldcns her
to become more ana more eXacting.
She is taking the lesson to heart Of
other women whose husbands go their
various and devious ways, and she is
determined to bring her husband up
ticketed and tagged like Il model for
inventors. The consequence is, in his
desire to please her in the beginning,
ana his fear of scenes, he humors her
once too often. which encourages her
to keep the upper hand, and from that
time Oh he is lost.
The woman who has not the pride to
restrain her temper, but who will
make scenes in the street, is the wOm-
an who holds IL lash over her hus-
bands head.
And there are many such who, in re-
sentiment of the most trilIins infringe
Ilcnt of what she considers her due,
will say or do the most eXtravagant
things that mortify man until he is
pitiablc. Such one will ask his
women friends what on earth he
should do. "She is my wife, after all,
and | can only submit"
A woman does not entertain the
dread of scenes that reduce man
to the flimsy consistency Of a rag, con-
scquently she will take advantage of
his desire to avoid anything Of the
kind on every possible OCCASION
Fully one-half of the married men
are the most abject Of towards where
wife is concerned. They will do
anything for the sake of peace They
will lie, deceive, submit-in fact, they
are so afraid of their wives that they
will try to purchase peace at any
price. and even then they don't

RUSH or LAND BUYERS.
South Dakota's Good Crop is Attract
ing Thousands to the State.

The Aberdeen hotels are filed most
of the time with land buyers from
Iowa, Illinois and Wisconsin, and it Is
freely predicted by those in touch with
the situation that the influx of new
settlers will be larger the next year
than ever before.
The fine crops raised in South Da-
kota the present season, particularly
the corn prospect, have drawn special
attention to this state, and the fact
that the cheap lands are producing
more net revenue than the higher
priced land further east and south is
having an effect that has been looked
for by only a few, comparatively
speaking.
Last week saw larger numbers Of
people coming to buy than any week
of the season. One train from Mason
City, Iowa, contained nine coaches
loaded with travellers headed for South
Dakota. 1t is freely predicted that
the lex ninety days will see more
prospectors in the state than within
the same length of time in its history.

TIN IN THE HILLS.

The machinery has commenced to
arrive for the large concentrating
plant which is to be erected by the
linton Tin company at linton, In the
Bear gulch district. This is the com.
pany that is opening a vein of tin bear
ing ore that is over 100 feet in width.
The company is financed by Chicago
and other Eastern capitalists and it
now appears there will be no question
whatever about the Black Hills being
on the market with tin in the course
of the next twelve months.
The linton company treated 200
tons of ore in Deadwood and, it is
stated, received an average of 7 per
cent tin to the ton. This would be bet
ter than most of the gold-bearing
mines of the Black Hills. The COM
pany is working on conservative lines
and is not saying much about it's
plans, but enough is known to show
that it means business. and excellent
results arc anticipated.

he had been with Commissioner BoI-
cher of Eureka, arranging for the state

the transportation lines. This portion
OF the grounds is broken and uneven,
cut up with deep ravines and hills, all
thickly covered with a splendid old

ing win be within ten rods of the open
air mining exhibit, which will show
in actual operation a mine burrowed
into a side hill along the ~ravine. and
the various processes of reducing the
ore to bullion. Around the corner viii
be the Colorado building. South Da-
kota's site is at the forking of three
roads, a particularly fine location. near
q main gate.
Seven thousand dollars will be spent
in the construction of a building, aud
three architects are now preparing
plans. II is planned to commence con-
struction in the early winter months,
so that the building a be ready Tor
decoration in February.
The various South Dakota state fairs
this year, at Mitchell. Huron, Sioux
Falls, Yankton and other places have
agreed to turn over their exhibits 70

Mr.. Warner OF Forestburg will prob
ably attend 20 the agricultural exhibit,

CORN Is BACKWARD,
It's Growth Has Been Retarded BY Cool
Weather.


The following Is the weekly IRON re-
port or the South Dakota section of
the weather bureau:
The weather was cool the fore part
OF the week, especially at night. but
more seasonable temperature pre-
Yaiied the latter part. There we're
general and in some locality heavy
rains, principally on the 14th, which
somewhat retarded harvesting, stack
ing, t%hreshing and haying, but benefit
ca grass, corn and fax, except that it
IS too wet for healthy growth of corn
on some southeastern lowlands.
Wheat and oat harvest is practically
completed except in some northern
counties, where, however, it is now
fast nearing completion. There has
been some shock ~threshing done, CIV
Ing indication that wheat yields will
be variable, but with mostly good quail
ity OF berry, except in some southeast
ern localities. There is still consider
able complaint of smut in wheat in
some northern fields. The yield of
small grains will likely be better than
anticipated in some of the northern
counties that were affected by drouth
in June.
Corn continues in thrifty condition,
but is backward. and normal growth
las been retarded by cool weather.
Much of the early planted corn is in
the roasting-ear stage, and the crop is
as a rule well cared and promises
good returns if frost holds off long
enough. 1t needs warmer weather.
Flax has done well. The early sown
is generally filling well and some is
~ripening.
Pastures and hay grass have been
improved by the rains,
Millet continues in promising con
dition and the cutting of the early is
in progress, with good yields.
Reports continue to indicate that
the potato crop will be good.
