The greatest climb for an automobile

er. Every part of the machine will

SMALL DOSES OF DOPE.

There is some disposition to cues
tien the wisdom of Three-Eye league
umpires IN always keeping in the mid
die of the diamond, whether there is a
man on base or not. As master of the
field that official of course has a tech
nical right to work where he pleases.
but it is generally conceded that bet
ter satisfaction can be given behind
the bat when the bases are clear. They
all have to do this in the big leagues
and formerly a number have done so
here. The danger of foul tips is not
much greater than that from hot liners
and if the crowd makes up it's mind TO
get his jumps, the few feet advantage he
would have by being in the middle of
the grounds would not amount to
much If any ThreeEye umpire has
aspirations of graduating into faster
company he might as we'll get into the
habit of looking through mask and be
ready for the promotion.
The latest among the freak plays of
the year. and one which aspires to
rank along with the squeeze play"
and the fudge trick" is the safety"
According to the rules of the game,
the thing is intended to advance a man
from second to third Directions for
playing it are as follows: With a fast

Rapid City, S. D., Aug. 12.-Experts
have been confident for m time that
natural gas, coal, oil and an artesian
basin underlay the ground in the vicin-
ity of this city. 1t was their theory
that these values could be found with
in a comparatively short distance. This
belief has also been held by many of
the capitalists of Rapid City, who are
now going to demonstrate their faith
by sinking. The matter has been taken
up by a local company, with plenty Of
capital. Mr.. Mccain, an expert driller,
has been engaged n will superintend
the work. The Northwestern COM
pany will be asked to ship the tools
and machinery free of charge as it's
contribution to this industry. The
Commercial club has just held a meet
ing at which the club took action up
on the matter and agreed to work in
harmony with the new organization.
This company will drill for gas, Oil
and coal and will be prepared also to
take care Of any artesian flow of water
which might be encountered. Work
will begin as soon as the machinery
and other necessaries are on the
ground, which will be in a short time.

WAEAT'S NEW ENEMY,
yellow Berry" Is the Infection to
Lower Grain Value.

Aberdeen, S. D.. Aug. 1~6.-Professors
LeClare and Chilcott, experts of the
agricultural department who are travel
ing through the wheat growing states
from Texas to North Dakota, investi-
eating GRO conditions, were in Aber-
deem and vicinity for several days
They report the discovery of q new
wheat enemy, heretofore unknown to
the department, which for want of a
better name they call yellow berry,
The disease consists of a yellow Spot
on the berry, sometimes covering half
of the berry, and which changes the
composition of the berry from protein
to starch, lowering the food value Of
the grain. The experts estimate that
the value Of the grain is reduced at
least 2 cents per buShel by the exist
ence of yellow berry in a wheat field.
The professors found but very few
wheat fields in South Dakota affected
with the new disease, but report the
trouble quite prevalent in Kansas and
Nebraska.
Isaac Lincoln last spring planted
some seed wheat procured at Devils
Lake, N. d. Some of the seed was re-
tanned, and the experts found at least
so per cent. of it affected With yellow
berry An examination of Nj. Lin
coins field grown from the seed showed
not owe / per cent. of the wheat af-
fected, indicating that the disease is
not transmitted from the seed.

Cassett also had some threshed, and
the yield was in the neighborhood of 1s
bushels to the acre. The rye is of n fair

GREAT HELP TO MiLLERs.
Garretson Man Has Invented a MILLING
Machine.

SaEIetsoF wan TaS invented a MILLING
Machine.
Garretson, S. d, Aug. 15.-Miling cir
cles and the flour using public have
been much interested the past few
months in a milling machine recently
patented by Levi Lash, manager of the
Globe Milling company of this place.
For several weeks the company has
had it's mill running IN what is known
as the continuous air system, which Mr..
Lash's machine makes possible. BY the
use of this air system all the cotton
fiber of the flour is removed. This cot
ton fiber is a part Of the -four that is
entirely indigestible, and millers have
never before been but partially sue
cessful in removing it.
The air system also keeps the rolls
perfectly cool and enables a miller to
turn out a coarser product and yet have
the color without killing the life Of the
lour to bleach it, and the sweet, nutty
flavor of the wheat is retained. 1t also
has a distinct economic gain.
While the general public will know
and care little about the work Of the
machine, millers are interested and the
public is keenly alive to the added
purity Of the flour and the retaining of
the natural flavor of the wheat. Car
retson is naturally much pleased to see
one of her citizens solve a vital problem
that has confronted millers up to this
time, @
