The Miller sun. (Miller, Hand County, S.D.) 190?-19??, 1906-09-26

81, now sick abed, hears OF
the decision in her second
trial for the recovery of her
life savings invested in st.
Lawrence township bonds,
it is feared the shock will
kill her. She was unable to
drive in the twenty miles
this time to defend herself,
being very bad off, but the
trial went on by her attor-
ney without her. Herself
and deceased husband loaned
the town $1,000 many years
ago. Interest was kept up
for a long time but now the
debt is $4,000. A few years
ago the paying of interest
became a burden and the
town and township began to
law each other to see which
should assume the debt.
The town beat the township
in the suit. The township
was very mad for it was
the town that had voted the
bond over the heads of The
township electors. This
fighting over the matter did
not help poor Mrs. bring
and now when she sues the
township it beats her as the
town defeated it. When
she had her first trial last
April, Judge Gaffy gave
her a part of the amount
sued for. The township as
we'll as herself asked for a
new trial, which came now
before Judge Boucher, Mr..
Gaffy's successor. The case
will be carried to the SUI
preme court in the hopes OF
having the decision reversed,
The judges in both trials
took the case from the jury
and gave the decision.

Buying Coal.

For the first time in the
history of Indian trading at
Rec Heights, the red men
are selling their wheat and
buying coal. They have
small stoves in their tepees
and some of them prefer to
burn coal rather than the
bits of boards usually picked
up along the roads by the

THE FARM, GARDEN AND DAIRY
Short Pnngant Paragraphs Gathered Here
and There

and There
Farm hands are getting $4 q day in
some parts of Canada. The Dominion ID
really worthy of notice.
A naturalist says that every time q
farmer shoots hawk he throws $50 bill
in the FIRE. for though the bird takes an
occasional chicken, it destroys at least q
thousand rats, mice and moles every year.
No bird that flies is of more benefit to the
farmer.
Each year the poultry business is be-
coming more lucrative and now assumes
proportions that win soon rival any
branch of farm industry. Farmers are
forced to acknowledge that the old hen
can lift her own weight in raising mort
gage from the farm.
We wonder how many folks remember
the haying tools used in 'grandfather's
time" A sharp scythe and q wooden
hand rake was all that was necessary to
get the hay into windrows, except whole
lot of hard work using them. Now, with
movers, rakes, hay leaders and hay slings,
all run by horse power, haying is differ
ent work. What viii ii be 20 years from
now?
The so-called potato king" is shrewd
negro by the name of Groves, who lives
on farm near Kansas City, Kan, and
raises and sells more potatoes than any
other man in the world. Besides bis own
production he buys and sells the potatoes

OF others. In Kansas City he maintains
a commission office and employs some ten
stenographers and book keepers. Realiz-
ing that such a large business needs o
well-trained head, he has sent his son
first to the Kansas Agricultural college for
an education and then to business col
lPge for business education.
The man who wrestles with the COW
and learns the calves to suck, who casts
the corn before the swine is now in great.
est luck, for buffers on the upper grade,
veafs higher than a kite, pork is climb
ing up the scale, and beef is out of sight,
the eggs he gathers every day from his
Poland chicken coop are almost worth
their weight in gold. and we are in the
soup. His corn brings fancy price, it's
rising every day, and be makes all kinds
of money for half ton OF bay. The
fariner is in the saddle, and when he
comes to town the rest of us by right
should ''go way back and then sit down. "
Boys, the farm offers every opportunity
one could desire. The soil lies laden with
riches awaiting only our efforts to extract
them. Every field or farm will respond
willingly to our labors if We study that
farm or field, adapt ourselves to ii and
care for it. Let US rally around the STAN
dard OF youth, remembering that the fu-
ture OF our country will be what the
young people make il. Let US show our
fathers and mothers that the boys and
girls Of to-day shall be ready to stand
FORTH inlly equipped men and women Of
to-norrow. Let US show them that the
rising generation which is following in
their foot steps is fully competent to- suc-
coed them and shoulder the responsibility
Of the farm, the home and nation.
