WOMAN BRAVES PERIL
TO KEEP ENGAGEMENT

Party Of Five Cross Thin Ice, at
Yankson, s. Done Is
Nearly Drowned.

Special to The Journal.
Yankton, S. D., March 17.-Four men
and a woman have broken all records
OF daring by crossing the river on the
thin ice. The crossing was made yes
terday and one Of the party was nearly
drowned.
For three weeks the condition Of the
river at this point has made it impossi-
BILE to cross with mail, and communica-
ton has been completely cut, off on
account of the thin ice which formed
after the river broke up about three
weeks ago. Tired Of being without
their mail for SO long a period, E. G..
Vose, Chris Holtzbauer and two young
men by the name of Weber, with the
latter's sister, who was due at Sioux
City, started across the river yesterday.
They were all provided with 12-foot
poles. Carefully they proceeded and
no place was found where the poles
could not be sent thru the ice at one
thrust and nowhere could bottom be
reached. It was with many misgivings
that the party picked it's way and many
close calls were experienced. Finally
this side was gained by all except one
OF the party, who broke thru the ice a
few feet from shore. He went down
but was promptly rescued.
This crossing was without doubt the
most risky feat ever attempted here
and added interest is given on account
of one. Of the party being a young
woman. The ice was so thin that the
swift-running river could easily be seen
under the ice as the party carefully
picked it's way across.

Editorial association, Charles F. Hack
EFT, editor Of the New Era of, this city,
was elected president. He is one Of
the most enterprising newspaper men
of this state and the result of the cleo
ton gives general satisfaction.
Mr.. Hackett came to this county in
1878 and has issued his paper regularly
every week despite obstacles few edi-
tors are called on to encounter. The
worst experience he had was during the
blizzard and blockade Of 1880-81, when
Parker was shut out from the outside
world for nearly three months. When
Hackett's supply Of paper ran out, he
printed the New Era on wrapping and
wall paper, and finally used muslin when
nothing else could be- obtained. The
files Of Mr.. Hackett s newspaper are

Mr.. Hackett is now president Of the

ADVICE TO FARMERS.
Valuable Information to Be Sent

cultural College.

Fargo, N. D., March IA bulletin
containing muclA valuable information
for farmers, especially at this time Of
the year,s has been prepared by the de-
partment of botany at the agricultural
college and is now on the press. 1t is
entitled Crust Theories, Problems and
Observations, and What to Do"
The following paragraphs Indicate
the manner in which the subjects are
treated:
Drain your fields SO that all surplus
water will quickly run into main bitches.
Get together, with your neighbors and
open all main bitches which are now
blocked, and open more new ones if
necessary to insure the general drainage
of entire districts. = -
Make every effort. to have the crop
mature at as early date as possible,
that is,shorten the vegetation period as
much as possible. The first wheat seeded
in the spring gives the best yield and
best grade, and usually is out Of the
way of the attack Of rust. . =
Make a good even seed bed with good
soil continuity from below upwards, and
bury the seed at an even or regular
depth. SO as to. insure even development
of the crop. ga: "a <E.. ;
Sow clean seed Of the best germinat-
ing strength possible. Such seed tends
to advance, the crop rapidly, fastening
the date Of the harvest, ripening it to
such strength that the rust cannot re-
duce it,. = s.s.
Treat all seed for the prevention Of
smut. Smut weakeps the growth Of the
entire crop and retards the development
Of the straw. On a smutty crop the
rust action is always intense.
To save the spring wheat crop from
the rust scourge it will be necessary to
keep the winter crop confined to it's own
area southwark. Avoid planting small
trial patches of winter wheat in the
spring wheat belt.
Cease the useless process Of seed
exchange Exchange or buy new seed
only when a grain Of known pedigree
can be obtained, one which is proved to
be better yielder and to be more dis
ease resistant than that Of your own
breeding.
Grade all seed grain to seeds Of per-
feet form and normal weight.
Rotate the crops so as to give each
cereal crop the sturdiest possible
growth.

night he turned son two gas jets, but
had only ignited one when the match
went out, and, finding the illumination
sufficient, he forgot to close the other
valve. He awakened late in the morn

sufficient strength return to enable him
to get, out Of bed, and to the window.
This latter he had fortunately left open,
