FOR FARMERS.
The Late Legislature Grinds A
Good Gust i'm Farmer
Legislation.

Sioux Falls Argus Leader, 10 The
agricultural and live stock interests OF
the state Jared we'll at the hands of the
state Legislature. 1t often happens that
these interests are jollied during the
campaign, and neglected afterwards.
This was not the case at Pierre this
winter.
First of all the farmers were inter
ested in the twine plant bill. 1t meant
a saving to them of from two to four
cents in their twine bill, and after
much difficult figuring, an appropria-
ton Of $40, 900 was passed to construct
the buildings and install the machinery
Ten thousand dollars was voted for
the work of the farmers institute
board. The live stock interests of the
state have suffered disasu ously from
the ravages of wolves and $40, 600 was
appropriated to pay wolf bounties. The
cattle dipping bill was passed with an
appropriation of $40, 900 for establishing
dipping plants for the cure OF cattle
diseases which are becoming prevalent.
and with which the individual farmer
cannot deal Thirteen thousand dollars
was appropriated for the erection of
permanent buildings at the state fair,
5000 for the live stock building at
Mitchell. &c, 900 to paw the premiums OF
the state fair, and little over 81, 900 to
make up the deficiency of the state
board of agriculture.
Not demand which the farming
and stock interests united in making
was ignored. In spite of this the
pledge of economy was kept, and the
total appropriations were SCI 900 less
than two years ago when most OF those
interests were overlooked. There has
been great deal of criticism of the
legislature for its refusal to submit the
primary, but the general existence of
its work should not be ignoled.

even Washington's residents are ac-
quainted with this fact. Visitors sell

this is that Arlington has changed

changed its front. The great public

what was the back gate. This is now
called the main west gate, and 1t is a
commonplace double gate of ornate
