In the third annual report Of

received, is a mary of cream
cry reports for the year ending
June 30, 1908. The table places
three Of the creameries of Grant
county at the head of the list in
price paid for butterfat during
the year, the highest price being
paid by the Milbank creamery,
which was 9o cents. The cream
cry at Big Stone came next with
a record of "a cents and the

cents. This showing is not only
d splendid one for the manage.
ment of these creameries, but it
Is matter of considerable pride
that our county should have the
three highest records in price
paid. The fact is the more no.
tlcable because the creameries
were not the largest in the state,
the records of milk received in
seven or eight of the creameries
of the state being larger than
that Of the Milbank creamery,
which was 1851, ,0O6 lbs. The
report places the three cream
cries of the county as follows:

The largest creamery in the
state is that at DeSmet, with 345
patrons. It received 9,136, 500
lbs. of milk and the price paid
was 80 cents, it's patrons receiv-
ing in total $40, 448. 82. The re-
port has statistics of seventy
! eight different creameries in the
state and it shows that there is
som mething doing in buttermak-
ing in South Dakota. Manager
Ryger, of the Milbank creamery,
is certainly entitled to congrat.
ulations for placing the ,institu-
tion under his management at
the head of the creameries of the

his patrons, and the patrons are
to be congratulated upon having
SO efficient a manager as he has

pretty near double those of
the last Cleveland administra-

into the statistics Of the mig
gardly expenditures of that
period but every one must admit
that our present prosperity and
unparalleled industry, as com
pared with the horrible indus
trial situation in 1894, 1895 and
1896 are an ample answer to any
criticism which may be made
of the present expenses OF the

General View of Case

NA"oioou Lcduef. WIN Clo
large numb Der of gentlemen in the
city from different points in the
state, on account of the meetings
OF the State horticultural Society
and the State Board of Agricul-
ture, state politics creeps into
the conversation and the Craw-
ford candidacy is frequently re-
ferred to. Madison, it seems,
has fallen heir to the reputation
OF being a Crawford stron ghold,
and an up state gentleman re
marked to The Daily Leader.
jokingly, Of course, "Why, we
heard up our way that you had a
Crawford club here of 400 mem
bers!'
Not quite that; but as a matter
of fact, through canvass made
by Mr.. Hutchinson, of Huron,
names to the number Of a posi-
bly, 60 have been signed to q
paper which are designed to be
used as a nucleus for the organ
ization of a Crawford club when
Mr.. Crawford delivers an ad
dress here on the 28th inst.
The general sentiment of the
visitors seems to be that Mr.
Crawford is a very fine man
that he has a perfect right tC
enter the race as candidate fol
governor; and then comes {
shake of the head and a veerins
off into a discussion of the har
monious condition Of state officia
matters as they now are, and the
suggestion that the Crawford
movement is a strife breeder
The present congressional dele
cation il is remark ed is the only
harmonious delegation the state
has ever had and the only delega
ton that has ever been on speak
ing terms with each other in
Washington or anywhere else
1t is pointed out that in a turn o1
the political wheel Senator Kilt
redge, then a member of the
republican national mittee
from Souyh Dakota, dispensed
more patronage than any indi
vidual senator in the country,
and not one of his appointees
went wrong. 1t is now possible
to go TO Washington on matters
of interest to the state and the
congressional delegation comes
together and works together and
a citizen of the state with busi-
ness before congress knows
where he is at. 1t is the first
time in the history of the state
that this has been the case and
the people are timid about coun-
tenancing anything that will
have a tendency to bring about
the old regime.
If there is a machine, it is a
congressional delegation and a
set of state officers working in
harmony. In any event, South
Dakota is being we'll served both
at home and in Washington.
In order to succeed in his can.
didacy there must be built up a
new machine-stronger than the
one now in strong
enough to put the present ma
chine out Of business. What Of
the new machine? And so they
talk.

Grant Pride Falls Fifty Feet
and Breaks His Legs

A bad accident happened to
Grant Pride, who lives on his
fathers farm, in Melrose town
ship, last Sunday afternoon
With Martin Crane er he was put
ting down a section of curbing
in a well. The curbing seemed
to have become caught, while
eight feet of it was above the
ground, and Mr.. Pride placed a
scantling across the top and
elm bing on the scantllug tried to
start it by his weight, when all
of a sudden it went down, the
scantling breaking in two at the
ground and Mr.. Pride and the
curbing going to the bottom of
the well, which was AZ feet deep.
Mr.. Cramer had to 90 and get
assistance before he could do
anything to get the man out, and
it was over an hour before he
succeeded in this. The well
was three feet ia diameter, and
in falling Mr.. Pride must have
gone down feet first all the way.
DR.. Ferguson was summoned
and upon examination found that
the bones of both legs were
broken just above the ankle and
the bones in the feet were also
badly fractured and that the
man was suffering severely from
concussion of the spine. The
latter trouble has been consid
erably reduced, and the doctor
is hoping to save the man S feet.
but it is possible that amputation
may have to be resorted to.

BIC FRUIT BUSINESS
The Express Companies Reap Rich
Harvest from Fruit Shipments

Both the Globe and Wells Fargo Ex-
press Companies are doing an unusual
ly heavy business at the present time
in the shipment OF fruit and berries
from .the locsl offices, the volume of
stuff being handled exceeding that of
any corresponding period in their hist
ory. There is no preceptible increase
in the volume OF incoming business,
although the outgoing shipments show
a very material gain. due to the ex-
ceptionally prolific crop OF cherries and
small fruits OF every variety.
In the case OF the Wells Fargo COM
psny the increase for the first three
weeks OF the current month over the
correspondinglperiod last year is nearly
sixty per cent. and It is believed the
same statement is applicable to the
Globe Express Company. For the first
twenty-three days OF July the income
derived from fruit shipments by the
Wells Fargo company amounted to
81 ,903. IS and 1t 10 estimated that its
revenues for the month on both the
out and in business will approximate
5000.
Canon City fruit. especially cherries.
are being shipped into Gew Mexico.
