When one takes into account the

into his stomach, it is indeed a sur
prise that so many Of them grow to
manhood's estate. Memory recalls the
time in boyhood days when hazelnuts
were green and apple seeds were
white, when many an August after
noon was spent alternating between
half hour soaks in the old swimming

to have foreseen just such contingent

SUPERVISORS AGAIN
TURN DOWN BROWN
BY Five To Two Vote
They Refuse To Pay
Back Salary

A. NJ Brown was again turned
down by the Board of Supervisors at
the meeting last night, the Board
once more refusing to allow him his
back pay for the time he put in as
prosecuting officer of the County At
torney's department between the time
he was appointed by Cathcart and the
date upon which the appointment was
finally ratified by the Board.
There was little discussion of the
matter, which came before the Board
by written opinion by Deputy Coun-
~ Attorney Olson, to whom it had
been referred as to the legality of
paying the bill. The opinion was
read early in the evening. Later
HustaCe brought 1t up again, asking
Cox If he wanted to have 1t put to
vote.
Cox was difildent ana appeared In
clined to sidestep the responsibility,
but was finally induced to make a mo
ton that A. NJ. Brown be paid his
back salary. Hustace shut or dis
cussiOn with the remark that he
thought there had been talk enough.
The vote was taken, resulting in
five noes and two ayes, the two vot-
ing in favor of paying the back sal
AIRY being Kealoha and Cox.
Olson's opinion was accompanied
by n letter written to him by County
Attorney Cathcart, directing him to
render his opinion without any re-
gard TO the request having come from
the County Attorney.
In his opinion, Deputy County At
tOrney Olson said: 1T may be that
under the circumstances of this case
Mr.. Brown could not demand pay
ment for such services as a matter of
right. Your letter does not include n
request for an opinion on that ques-
ton, and upon II | therefore refrain
from expressing any opinion" Olson
held that the Supervisors could legal
ly pay the bill If they wanted to.
They didn't.

ROADSIDE WEEDS

Tame Grass Seed SOwn on Road
way or Lots

Pipestone, Mimi. A resident of
this city has been experimenting for
some time and claims to have discov-
cred a remedy which if applied will
eradicate the weeds. He gives the
following directions:
Take 20 cents worth of white
clover seed, 10 cents worth of timo-
thy seed and 20 cents worth of blue
grass seed, mix thoroughly and SOW
on both sides of the road. Let every
farmer do this and SOW the highways
surrounding his land and in two or
three years the result will surprise
anyone. This grass mixture will
spread and kill all weeds. Only 30
cents worth of seed will SOW mile
of highway. The same process will
clean the weeds out of city lots

FROM PANAMA
Great Progress i'm Excavation
Work

Washington Special: Senator Kit
tredge of South Dakota, who ac-
companied Secretary Taft's party,
says:
1t is little more than two years
since | was on the canal strip before,
and / was able to see that great
progress has been made. In my
judgement the actual work of exca-
waiting will be completed far in adj
vance of general expectations, and
the serious work of the canal con-
struction, namely, the building of
the locks and dams, may consume
considerable more time. | heard
no complaints regarding the commits
sary and do not believe that men are
leaving the canal work on account
of wont of proper food. The chief
difficulties so far as the workers are
concerned relate to wage questions.
1t seems to be necessary in order to
maintain a force of men on the zone
to pay wages from a third to half
again as high as are paid in the
states"

CREAMERY RECORD
IN KlNGSBURY co.
The Faithful Cow Mans Best
Friend

Iroquois, April 50. The local
creamery which is one of the leading
institutions of its kind in South Da-
kota, has just completed its thlr-
teenth year, and during that time has
made decidedly fine record. Dur
ing that period the creamery has
distributed among its patrons, IN
payment nearly 100000 in addi-
ton to its operating expenses, ag-
gregating many thousands of dollars
more. Thus the creamery has an
nually distributed among the farm
ers of this locality the sum of about
100000 which has materially aided
hundreds of farmers to reach con-
dition of financial independence.
This creamery, during the trying
years of the early nineties, did more
than any other one thing to tide the
farmers over the partial drought
seasons and enable them to remain
in the country and secure the bene-
fits which have come with recent
years.

CAN'T MOVE TOWN
BONDHOLDERS SAY
Evarts Between Two Railroads,
But Can Move to Neither

Bondholders now step in to object
to removing the town of Evarts to
the Terminus of the branch of the
Milwaukee west of Aberdeen. When
it was decided to build the road west
of the river it was found that the
ground at Evarts was not suitable
for building piers to support the
bridge, and the company determined
to cross the Missouri at point seven
miles north of Evarts. This at once
sealed the future of the place and
when the Minneapolis and st. Louis
road was extended to the Missouri
at what is known as LIE Beau, sever
al miles south of Evarts, the bust
ness men of Evarts planned to put
their business honses and residences
upon wheels and move. The fact
that they had bonded the place for
municipal and school improvements
had been forgotten, but the compan-
les holding the bonds will not allow
building to be moved from its pres
ent site. The residents of Evarts
are up against serious proposition.

worst incidents of the accident hap
pened when Mr. H. attempted to GO

ing a ride. While Mr. and Mrs

from their experience they are very
glad to get home and meet old

MRS q. H. CARROLL
PASSES AWAY
Death Claims a Pioneer of Town
and County

At the Carroll home, West Second
street, Tuesday night, the Death
Angle entered and carried away the
spirit of Mrs Alice Carroll, wife of
Judge G. H. Carroll, at the age of
so years.
Her death calls for general ex-
pressions of sorrow from all older
citizens, among whom she was held
in high esteem.
Mrs Carroll was devoted to her
home and family, and her life was
one of beautiful Christian simplicity.
Alice Milburn was born in Webster
County, Iowa, April ,, 1857, where
she was educated and grew to wom-
anhood. In May of 1880 she was
married to George H. Carroll, and
in August, 1882, they came with the
early tide of immigration to make
their home in Miller, where they
have taken active part in the growth
and development of town and coun-
ty. To them were born six children,
two daughters and four sons, all
living. The husband and children
have the community's sympathy in
this greatest loss of their lives.
Funeral service will be held at the
home tomorrow, Friday, conducted
by Rev. o. w. Butterfield, pastor of
the Methodist chnrch, of which
deceased was a member. The re-
mains will be laid to rest in the G..
A. r. cemetery.
