FARMERS ELEVATOR FAILURE.
j Years Business MysteriousIy
Shows a Heavy Loss.

Aberdeen, S. D., Aug. 23.-Considerable
dissatisfaction exists among the stock
holders of the Farmers Elevator company
at Bath. The first. year the was
in business it handled 67,o00 bushels of
grain, valued at 1884, 600 and reaped a fair
profit. The second year the amount of
grain handled reached 70 1880 bushels and
the years business was also reported TO
the stockholders as being conducted at a
profit. During the last year the company
handled 10000 bushels of gram, worth $751;
600. 1t is alleged that at a r~leeting of the
stockholders held a month ago they were
informed that he years business 1lad
been transacted at a net profit of / cent
on every bushel of grain handled. 1t now
develops. according to the latest reports,
that there Is a shortage of something over
$500. 1t is understood the elevator build
ing will be sold and the company will go
out of business. an arrangement being ar
rived at among those most deeply inter-
ested whereby the affairs of the company
will be wound up without unnecessary de-
lay or publicity.

'ment Missouri service, and who is now
iengaged south Of this city pulling
"snags," offers a theory he proves
easily, for the prevalence of that great
danger to navigation of "Old Muddy"
Contrary to the general opinion, Cap
tain Gould holds that with few excep-
itions the huge snags. some of them
one hundred feet long, which he is
tearing the river of, have been buried
for ages, and are not newly f1oated
down logs. He says the constant cut
ting Of the river washes out s%andbars
on which once grew immense trees.
The roots still remain fast. Embedded
in their original soil. Dried out by
hundreds of years of burial beneath the
bed of the river, OF the removal of the
sand above. the now light and buoyant
log floats partly to the top and forms
a snag, which is exceedingly danget-
Gus. especially the submerged kind.
The snap boat either breaks off these
logs by ramming them. or pulls them
up by derrick, when the log is allowed
to float down stream, as a floating log
never makes a snag." A green" log
is seldom met with, so thai the con-
slant pulling up of snags, as ehey APP
pear. will eventually clear the river of
the cause OF many a good boat going to
the bottom Of the river.

All Storage Warehouse Men Must Pub
lish Them Once a Year,

lish Them once a Year.
Sioux Falls, S. D., Aug. 24.-It does
not appear to be generally known
among the warehouse men of South
Dakota that the state law requires that
every bonded warehouse shall during
the first week in September of each
year publish in a newspaper in the city
or town where warehouses are sit
mated a table or schedule of rates for
the storage of grain during the. en-
suing year. These published rates, ac-
cording to the state law, cannot be in
creased, during the year. The schedule
of rates must also be printed in plain
type on the warehouse receipts and
tickets. The charges for storage or
handling shall in all cases be equal
and just, and must be approved by the
state board of railroad commissioners,
before going into effect. Heretofore the
warehouse men of the state have not
generally complied with the state law
requiring the publication Of these
schedules.
The licenses OF all state warehouse
men expired August /. Under the state
law they are required to procure a
license from the state board Of rail-
roa commissioners before they can
transact a warehouse business. Secre-
tary Stanley of the board Of railroad
commissioners. states that while most
Of the state warehouse meOshave sent

others are yet delinquent. In cases
where grain Is stored for a compensa-
ton, warehouse men are required to
furnish a bond in the sum Of $4,000
for each 10000 bushels capacity.

Naturalists have discovered many
animals which seem to need no water
or which drink only at rare intervals.
There Is a certain breed of gazelles
which never drink, and the llamas of
Patagonia live for years without TAX
ing water. There is a particular class
of cattle near Losere, in France, that
rarely touches water, but in spite of
this fact these cattle give milk of a
rich quality, from which excellent
cheese is made. Many n~aturalists have
the theory that hares do not drink or
that water is not a necessity for them
