FARM NOTES.

Krouse brothers and Ralph Helmka
finished their seasons work with the
shredder last Saturday. They were at
work twenty days, doing 263 acres:
Krouse brothers.. 100; John Helmka,
38;; R. D. Roberts, 35; Isaac Lincoln,
20; Henry Meyers, Is; Hugh Helmka,
80 acres. This method OF husking
corn has only one drawback, that is
the expense of it. The greatly in
creased value given to the fodder by
shredding is the redeeming feature
The pure seed meeting at Groton
was very largely attended, and GER
tainly a distinguished array Of talent
was on hand to talk to the farmers.
Hon. M. F. Greeley, editor of the Da-
kota Farmer opened the discussion and
was followed by A. G. Johnson of the
North Western railroad, the promoter
of the pure seed propaganda. Profes.
sors Wheeler and Chilcott, of the
state agricultural college gave the
scientific side of the question. The
next meeting in this county will be
at Hecla on Saturday. January 18th.
The writer received a letter this
week from his old friend and neigh
Dor. Hardy w. Campbell, formerly Of
this county, who has become famous
by reason Of his advocacy Of a system
Of summer culture. as he calls it
which may yet reYolutionize farming
especially in regions OF scant rainfall
He claims the semi-arid lands possess
decided advantages over land subject
to frequent srperabundance OF rain
Under the Campbell system land is
cropped every other year only, bu.
that crop, it Is claimed, is certain fol
double two average years crops.

Judge Ellis Gets Verdict Against
Mgr. Ghas. CottschaIk
for Wages Due

Circuit court got down to business
in fine shape Saturday. In fact it is
quite noticeable that Judge Mccoy
does not encourage delays and with
out hurrying manages to keep the
court business moving.
Reeder S. Ellis secured judgment
against Charles Gottschalk for &323.2O
the amount he sought to recover. His
action was based on alleged agreement
entered into by him with Gottschalk
where he was to act as janitor for the
old opera house and to receive for his
services $15 month and room in
the opera house to live in. The plain
tiff worked for Gottschalk until the
old opera house was burned, three
years ago, and received, according to
his complaint, 1885 and the room
rent, also fuel and lights. His suit
was to recover the balance alleged to
sbe due him.

The Cheyenne River Indians, accord
Ing to information just received from

because the government does not pay
them their lease and trail money in
June instead Of making long delays
as in the past. A delegate will go to
Washington to see the great white
father about it. There is no question,
however, but the payment of about
$4,000 to these Indians at the begin
ming Of winter. instead of last June,
is Godsend to them. Now they have
money to supply their winter needs,
but if it had been paid them in June
all would have been spent in q few
