MAKING A CHEZ.
1t Takes Many Years of Hard WORK
and Training.


"When you reflect upon what chef
goes through to complete his education
1t is nc wonder that mis- services COM
mand high prices" said the culinary
king Of q restaurant.
"The chef" he continued, "begins as
q boy, as apprentice to a master. For
several years he works under the veg
etable cook. He learns how to make
mashed potatoes that look like white
roses. how to cook and to arrange all
the vegetables, from the truffies down,
I'm a hundred fine and beautiful ways.
He gets no salary. He geA only his
board.
'arhen for year he studies raw
meats. He learns how to select them
and how to cut them up. He can tell
at a glance, for instance, the genuine
salt meadow mutton from the false.
Along with this raw meat course goes
also q study of fish and Of game and
Of poultry-how to stuff, dress, lard,
truss. and so on.
"Next. for a year, at a small salary,
he stands before the range, learning
how to broil, fry, roast and bake.
"He now knows the foundation OF
his art and Is admitted into the pres
ence of the chef himself-only assist
ants have taught him so far. The chef
teaches him to make soups. pastries,
ices and the more complicated pud-
dings and soufflees. Three or four
years is none too long time to study
here.
"Ten years Of hard work should turn
a quick apprentice into a good cher.
Such q chef without difficulty earns
from S25 week up to $50. If he
gave half as much time to the bar, the
church or medicine he would earn
thrice as much."-New York Press.

Miss May Bryant, pretty girl of
Graniteville, S. c., is dying at hos
pital at Atlanta, Ga, in consequence
of having been kissed with undue
force by her lover, Theo Barton. A
week ago Miss Bryant and Barton
went walking, and when she returned
her cheek was bleeding. She said she
had scratched a pimple. Blood poison
developed yesterday. The girl con-
fessed that the wound was inflicted by
her lover while he was kissing her.
"Theo kissed me, said the girl, "and
once playfullY bit my cheek. He bit
harder than he intended and caused
the wound.

very serious accident Sunday evening.
Mr.. Boutwell, had unhitched his team
and left the little boy standing by
the wagon while he took the team in
to the barn. He was only absent a
few minutes and when he returned
he found the child lying on the
ground apparently dead, with a colt
some distance away. The colt must
have come around the wagon and
either in play or fright kicked the
the child The child vas brought to
town Immediately and taken to MIR.

was in waiting to render such relief
as was necessary. The child was un-
conscious for a long time, but finally
recovered from the effects of the
kick and is now getting we'll.

to believe.
The other method. of growing
winter wheat is, we believe, prefer
able to that of seeding oat stubble,
although not quite as large crops can
be grown. Where the farmer has
turned under a clover sod, prepared a
good seed bed for corn, and cultivat-
ed it in the proper. manner, he has
almost an ideal seed bed for. his
winter wheat. If then he will har-
vest his corn, secure a disk drill and
SOW Immediately after the corn is
harvested, he will usually get it in
about the right time. If he viii. drill
in a bushel and a peck of Turkish
Red winter wheat and forget about
it he will stand a first-class chance OF
getting a good crop. The expense in
this method is about as follows:
Seed, bushel and peck, say $3.50 per
acre. Planting, seeding, so cents per
acre. This is all theexpense until IL
is ready to harvest; 40 cents Will
usually buy the Irvine and sl.N Will
put it in shock, and 10 cents a bushell
will thrash and market. Where land
is at all adapted to winter wheat the
average should not be less than
twenty bushels per acre. and on very
rich land in a good season, will yield
from thirty to forty. The crop on
our W farms last year was thirty
five bushels; in 1902 it was forty on
one field and forth-three on another.
Land, rich bottom gumbo soil, which
produced in 1904 sixty bushels OF corn
per acre.
Do not SOW winter wheat on poor
land. 1t is not a poor land crop. You
cannot we'll have land too rich for
winter wheat. Take a piece OF clover
or blue grass sod, n 1T in the
fall, plow it late in the fall, put it In
corn the next year, and the next year
after that if you want to. Then har-
vest your corn, drill in your winter
wheat as above described, and you
have as certain a crop as you ever put
in the ground, or took off, in an ave-
rage of ten years.

A Manly Statement.

AS announced before the Candi-
dates meeting at the Court House,
last Wednesday, l am a Candidate for
the office of the Clerk of Courts, of
Lincoln county, South Dakota. My
position is a simple one; | rely upon
my record of the past four years, and
assure the people of Lincoln county,
that if they see fit to retain me in Of
fee for another term l shall give
them my time, attention and most
devoted service as l have in the past.
| The third term limit may be urged
against me, and in reply to this will
| say that the trainers Of our State
Constitution, for reasons apparent at
that time, excepted Judicial offices In
applying the two term rule, for the
reason doubtless that experience is
| very material in positions OF this
| nature. Minnehaha county has elect
| ed it's present Clerk Of Courts for
three successive terms and he is now
a candidate for a fourth term. Union
county has also given her Clerk 4
third term which he is now serving.
l. as a candidate, have no political
claim on the office, but ask the voters
of Lincoln county to support me II
they believe my services have merited
such action on their part. Assuring
my friends and the citizens and
voters of Lincoln county that / sin
cereIy appreciate the confidence they
have reposed in me in the past, and
assuring them that in my present
campaign l shall thoroughly appre-
ciate any support accorded me, am

A ball of electric fluid ran into Sam
Thorson's house, over on the farm,
during the storm Tuesday night.
The bolt was strong enough to give
all a little shock, but fortunately no
one was hurt. The electricity fol
lowed the phone wires it is believed.
The right of a physician to issue
whiskey prescriptions to habitual
drunkards was up for a hearing be-
fore Judge Hawn, and the right Of a
Druggist to sell liquor more than
once on a prescription. was drawn In
to the a Judge Kennedy APP
peared for the city, and Judge Aikens
for the defense. If physicians can
make a farce out of the Temperance
laws. it is time 1t was found out. The
court will render an opinion on the
matter mex month.
The bolt Of tightening that struck
the Thorson home, burned out the
receiver at the Lewis and jenkins
Gate City dairy, burned the wire in
two at the Asylum and burned out
the receiver at the Thorson home,
and Sam was close to the phone at
the time. AS the Lewis and jenkins
milk wagon team was passing under
the phone wire down near the farm,
there was enough electricity on the
wire to knock one of the horses down.
1t was a heavy bolt and it ripped the
electrically charged ozone like the
discharge Of twenty cannon on quar-
ter second time. Sam Thorson says
he don't are much for an ordinary
shock, but when it plays around ones
head, he wants to be counted out of
the game.

Clate Had Poor Whiskey.

The editor of the Kimball Graphic
tells of a snake story which he wrote
once as an offset for the Leader story.
The only difference between h TWO
is: One is gospel truth and the
other was the product of Brule coun-
ty corn Juice. which in early days
contained a snake in every drink.
Clate Tinan is usually n OF the
most truthful editors in the state
but when a man like him tells a lost
boy snake story it is time he had
watchers. Hear him:
Col. Linn of the Canton Leader,
whose reputation for truti, and vera
city stretches back farther than a
woodpecker can fly in thirty years,
tells about a monster snake in the
vicinity Of that prohibition town
whose track is as big as a sawlog.
sit has frightened people dreadfully,"
the Col. affirms but whether he re-
fers to the trail Of the serpent or the
snake itself, we cannot say. Incl
dentally, we used to be somewhat OF
a snake liar ourself. Older readers OF
the Graphic will recall the big snake
that found a little lost boy near BIZ
lou Hills in a wheat field and by
whipping it's tail around the child
dragged it to the home of the parents
and then disappeared. The trail was
followed for a mile, sc the item
stated. Lots of people actually be-
lieved that yarn-and so many people
from the vicinity of the Hills called
at this Office to make further inquir-
les that we began to believe it too.
