missioner Sherwood for the year end
ing June 80, 1904, contains many
interesting facts regarding the
creameries of South Dakota. The
report shows that theDeSmet cream
cry continues to hold it's place as the
leading creamery Of South Dakota,
so far as the amount of business
transacted is concerned. During
the year ending on the date stated
the DeSmet creamery with 332 pat
rons, purchased an aggregate of
1919, 102 pounds of milk, for which
the patrons were paid an aggregate
of S54, 1910. The total milk
receipts during the nine years and
eight months the DeSmet creamery
has been in operation were 65,266,-
1913 pounds, for which product the
farmer patrons received an aggregate
Of S4Sl, 294.50. Thus single
creamery has paid to its farmer pat
rons nearly 100000.
The creameries which during the
year ending June 30, 1904, pur.
chased an aggregate of 5,00O,0OC
pounds of milk and upward were:
MITCHELL 1887 ,469 pounds; Armour
1882 300 pounds; Clark, 1896, 1874
pounds; Madison, 1927 200 pounds
These four creameries for the milk
purchased, paid to their patrons the
following sums: Mitchell, $52, 925..
SO; Armour, SAT, 3S091; Madison
SOL ,537.S6; Clark, S43,131.92.
Six creamefies in South Dakota
during the period stated paid theil
patrons an aggregate of $4,000 anc
over. They are, Andover, Webster
Clear Lake, Iroquois, Lennox anC
Milbank.
| There is little doubt in the mind,
of those familiar with the creamery
industry Of the state that with con
tinuance of the wonderful develop
ment of the industry it will be only
a few years until South Dakot'
stands at the head of the dairy
states in the union.

MISSOURI HATS DEMOCRATIC
New Law Forbids All but Such
Birds as Poultry and Crows
on Millinery.

Law and not fashion will dictate
the headgear of the women in Mis-
souri,, after Representative Walms-
ley's fish and game law goes into
effect, June Is.
Under the provisions OF the Dill
which has become law through the
governors signature, women are
allowed but few birds with which to-,
decorate hats, and thousands of dol
lars worth of feathers and bird
bodies in wholesale and retail stores
in Kansas City, St. Joseph and st
Louis will become contraband Only
the feathers of domestic birds, such
as ostriches, chickens and ducks may
be used, while the wild birds allowed
milliners are confined to sparrows,
hawks, horned owls and crows.
AS few of the latter birds, either
in feather or body, enter into the
millinery scheme, women's hat deco
rations in the bird line will be
limited
Any person who yiolat es any OF
the provisions OF the section is held
guilty of misdemeanor and may be
punished by fine of x25 and al
additional fine Of So for each bird,
living or dead, or part of bird held
in their possession.
| Milliners wholesale and retail, IL
Missouri, must rid themselves of
their stock of birds prohibited bv
I the act.
The bill provides, too, that none
of the parts Of birds prohibited by
the act may be shipped into the
state. As consequence only those
women who are able to trim their
own hats may wear birds this sum
mer and the birds must be in their
possession before June is.

Dairying Lifts the Mortgages.

Dairying Lifts the Mortgages.
The growth of the creamery
industry in South Dakota was due to
the inability of the farmers to profit
by devoting their entire attention
and depending solely upon the rails
ing Of small grain. Farmers who
had become poor by giving their
whole attention to raising small
grain were, when creameries were
established and they saw the wisdom
OF devoting some of their attention
to dairying, enabled to get "out
from under" burdens of indebted
ness which grew larger the longer
they placed their reliance upon
grain raising.
Dairy herds have materially aided
thousands of South Dakota farmers
to advance from condition of pow
erty to condition of affiuence.
Many who made failure of the
attempt to get rich by raising small
grain alone, and who when ruin
stared them squarely in the face,
gave some of their attention to dairy
ing, were speedily placed upon their
feet and are now among the most
wealthy residents of the state Had
thew continued to place their chief
dependence npon grain raising many
IN them would lone ere this have

farms, or to have witnessed the fore
closure of mortgages upon them.
All Business Improved.
/ Exactly as the condition of the

establishing of creameries, 50 has
the condition of the business men o.

Dakota.
COW LIFTS THE MORTGAGE.
An Industry Which is Only
Eight Years Old-Qua1ity is
at the Top.

Alf Burkholder, special CORES
pondence in Argus Leader: The
creamery industry of South Dakota
Notwithstanding the strong compe-
tition of the cold storage houses
have been established in the larger
cities of the northwest, is in very
prosperous condition, and there is
every indication that the season
opening will be one of the best since
the industry was established in the
state,
c. P. Sherwood, the retiring food
and dairy commissioner of South
Dakot, recently produced figures to
show that South Dakota now ranks
twelfth among the dairy states OF
the union in quantity of product,
but in quality no other state sur
passes it. South Dakota butter ia5
"body" which will stand more heat
by 10 or IL degrees than the butter
produced in any of the older dairy
states and still be in good condition
1t is also a fact to produce the best
results South Dakota cream must be
churned at temperature higher by
several degrees than in other states
Grass the Secret of Good Butter.
The highquality of the butter pro
duet of South Dakota is attributed
to the excellence of the grasses upon
which the dairy heards feed, The
broad prairies of the state are
covered with nutritious grasse;
which retain their nourishing quail
ties and are relished 10y cattle at al
seasons of the year. Because o
these favorable conditions the ques
ton of how to obtain food for tn
dairy herd has been easy of solution
Since the farmers of South Dakot
turned a part of their attention t.
dairying, the raising of corn an
other coarse foods has been NOR
fully developed, and now corn
successfully grown in parts OF tn
state where few years ago 1T wa
deemed impossible for it to matur
because of the comparative shortnes
of the growing season and the com
ing of early frosts.
1t is conservatively estimated tina
the dairy industry of South Dakot
annually brings the state revenu
of not less than S5,000,0O0.

industry of Recent Growth.

1t is only about eight years ago
that the first creamery was estab
lished in South Dakota. Since that
time the industry has developed in a
really wonderful manner. Dairy
methods also have been greatly
improved during the past few years.
Eight years ago, before creameries
were established, the farmers wives
labored under great difficulties in
producing the small quantity OF
butter possible under the conditions
which existed before creameries
began to be placed in operation at
various points in the state.
Cooperative creameries and plants
owned by individuals have displaced
the crude methods of the past
These institutions are equipped with
modern, up to date machinery, and
under the direction Of expert and
progressive buttermakers produces
tons of butter where pounds were
formerly produced. Many of thu
dairy farmers are now the possess
ors of hand separators and ship theil
cream to central churning plants, o.
which there are several in the state
BY doing this they are able to get
better price for their butter fat than
they could were they to churn il 3

Bisbee daily review., 1905-10-29

Commisario Corella, executive off cer for the Mexican government in Agua Prieta, has put a decided lid on the promiscuous shooting from the Cantina just south of the international boundary line. This action was taken after reading the account of last Sun. days events in this line. published in this paper, when a shot was fired so close to the American guardhouse as to make possible the belief that it was the guardhouse, if not an in spector that was the target.
 Four Mexicans are now in jail in Agua Prieta charged with promiscu. ous shooting. and a general order has been issued to all officers of the re. public to arrest any one found shoot, ing near the cantina or in Agua Prieta, and to permit no frequenters of the former place to carry arms.
 This action will be pleasant news to those residents of Douglas who live near the line and who were heretofore almost constantly annoyed and often in danger of being wounded or killed by flying bullets, which did not re spect boundary lines.

A warrant was applied for this morning against Lee Phillips. driver for the International Laundry, charg- ing him with assault with a deadly weapon upon his wife, a daughter of Judge Gid Graham. It was the father of the girl wife who Swore to the in. formation.
 The trouble between Phillips and his wife. who were but recently mar. ried, according to the story of the wife's father, began shortly after their marriage, and eliminated this morn. ing in the office of Cass & Graham, whence Phillips followed his wife and her little sister, abusing them both in the presence of Judge Cass. and be coming so violent in his language that he was put out of the office.
 Since last Sunday Mrs. Phillips has been residing with her parents. This was brought about by the alleged eff fort of Phillips to kill his wife with a butcher knife. It is said that he was only prevented from doing this by Ia young sister of Mrs. Phillips, who knocked the knife out of his hand as he was about to strike.
 Jealousy is alleged to be the cause of the trouble. Last Sunday morning Judge Graham passed his daughters home and waved his hand to her. She returned the salutation and her hus- band asked her to whom she was waving. Not getting what he thought was a proper answer. he seized her by the throat and after beating her head against the wall until she was dazed. seized the knife, when the little sister interfered and Mrs. Phillips broke from his grasp and ran home.
 Tn the days which have passed since then Phillips is alleged to have wis tied Judge Graham's home during the latter's absence and used offensive language to Mrs. Graham and her children. It is likely that he will also be arrested on a misdemeanor charge for these Offenses and for his alleged violence in the lawyers office this morning.
 Judge Graham said that the reason for not taking the matter up when the trouble occurred last Sunday was his desire to keep it from becoming public He added that he had now lost all hope of patching up the trou- ble and would proceed to protect his daughter from harm.
 Phillips was arrested about 2 o'clock this afternoon, gave bond for $50 and the hearing was set for 10 o'clock Tuesday morning.

Two Hundred Million On Deposit In
Banks, Yet Assessors Find
Only $4,000.
PROSECUTING ATTORNEY SUMMONS
MILLIONAIRES BEFORE GRAND JURY
Trying to Find Ont How 1t Is That
They Are Rich q Days In the
Year and Poor On the 305th-Ex-
pert Tells of Rich People "Pur-
chasing" Government Bonds.

st. Louis, Sept. 20.-Although the
latest report Of the associated banks
of st. Louis showed 5000, 401, 228.S9 on
deposit, the assessors report only $685.
600 cash in the entire city.
The prosecuting attorney has deter
mined to investigate, and to that end
has summoned milliOnaires and other
monied men before the grand jury to
learn what has become of all the hun
dreds of millions they and other peo-
pie had on deposit in the banks.
The prosecuting attorney says he
knows of one man who had $780, 900
ready cash on hand. He is said to be
worth a million, yet he swore, SO the
circuit attorney says, that he had only
$3.50 ready money when the assessor
caught up with him.
The circuit attorney declares that
dozens of men could be named in st.
Louis who are reputed to be worth
many hundreds of thousands of dol
a.. whose returns 10 the city in
taxes are hardly worth mentioning.
A local money lender worth over a
million dollars, who daily risks thou
sands of dollars, it is claimed, pays
but a pittance to the city in taxes.
An expert witness who recently vent
before the grand jury unfOlded a ia
vorite trick Of tax dodgers to the cir
cult attorney before entering the
grand jury room. He stated thai when
the time approaches for the wealthy to
make their returns to the city or state
these men become suddenly interested
in the purchase of government bonds.
They tell their broker they want so
many thousands of dollars worth Of
government bonds. The broker buys"
for them. These bonds are exempt
from tax. Having made their 'pur-
chases,'' the dodgers then go to the
city hall, swear to the amount of cash
they have on hand and then dispose"
of the bonds again. By this means they
escape all taxation, and still have
their money to invest in any I'M
that they see fit.

A MAN WITHOUT RESOURCES
Capt. Hotville of the Oterie Loses
His License as Master.
the Presidents Yncht, When Dis
abled Of Carolina Coast.

Washington, Sept. 20.-The failure
of Capt. w. H. Hotville, as master of
the United Fruit Co.'S ship Oteri, to
give assistance to the U. S. S. Sylph,
which was disabled off the coast of
North Carolina, on the night Of April
II, has cost him his position through
the revocation of his license by the
United States steamboat inspection
service. This action was taken by in
spection officers at Norfolk, va, on
September II, and the correspondence
is made public by the department of
commerce and labor.
The distress of the Sylph occurred
while Lieut.. Evans was bringing the
vessel up the coast from Florida, where
it had been used by Mrs. Roosevelt and
the White House children for a cruise.
Lieut.. Evans, in commenting on the
incident. detailed the accident to the
Sylph and his failure 20 get the Oteri
to respond to his signal Of distress,
and says he was entirely helpless and
the Oteri knew it,"
He then graphically described the
experiences OF the night, the failure OF
other vessels to see the signals from
the Sylph, and finally of the rescue, on
the morning of the 18th, by the Nor
gan liner Ell Cid, which put about
from her course to New Orleans.
Il am firmly convinced that had the
FL Cid not taken us into port, the
Sylph ard all her people would have
been lost"
The inquiry adduced the fact that
Capt. Hotville refused to slow down,
for the alleged reason that at the time
the Sylph was spoken the telegraph
system on the Oteri became u of re-
pair, and there was no direct manner
OF sending word to the engine room
for a reversal Of the engines.
The inspectors held that this excuse
showed the master to be a man without
resources, and on that ground and neg
ligence revoked his license.
