BY COYOTES.
Man Is Chased by Prairie Wolves and
Has to Eioht Them.

HAS TO Fight Them.
While riding around a pasture look
ing for some of his cattle, George
Davidson, a member of the Monticello
colony in the region between the Mis-
souri, river and the Black Hills, In
Western South Dakota, had an INFER
esting adventure with q pack Of CO.
votes.
Davidson Unexpectedly came upon
a den of the snarling animals, which
strongly resented his intrusion and
Immediately showed fight. The colo
mist was unarmed, and he beat as
hasty a retreat as possible on his
faithful little Indian pony. The CO.
votes gave chase, and the race con-
tinued for many miles, or until the
Indian pony gave out, when Davidson
was compelled to dismount and en-
gage in a fight with the animals,
which he finally succeeded in beating
off.
During the encounter Davidson re-
ceived many cuts and gashes from the
sharp teeth and claws Of the coyotes,
but is rapidly recovering from the
effects of the strenuous battle. So
far as known this is the first instance
in the history of the Western South
Dakota of coyotes attacking any one

Farmers Profit In Several Ways by Co.
Operative Enterprise.

operative enterprise.
One of the most successful elevators
conducted by farmers in South Dakota
is the elevator Of the Farmers Eleva-
tor company at Bryant. The annual
meeting of the stockholders of the
company has just been held and re.
ports made at the meeting show the
company to be in excellent financial
condition. Owing to the thriving o
dition of the treasury it was decided
to declare a dividend of 81 per share.
Ten per cen Of the net profits of the
company are held as a reserve for
emergencies. There are about 200
shareholders in the company, and they
received the dividend of % per cent
on their investment, in addition to re.
ceiving a better price for their grain
than was the case before the farmers
elevator commenced business.

Every bone nurse is supposed TO
know how TO make beef tea. yet IL is
surprising how many failures are TO be
recorded In this apparently simple OPP
Grafton. The fault generally lie that too
little time Is given to the cooking. The
point 10 be borne In mind is that as
far as possible. the whole OF the nutri-
ment OF the beef Is TO be extracted.
The best method OF doing this is to
proceed as follows: Remove all the
fat and skin from one pound of fresh
gravy beef. cut II mp into small pieces
and put II into a stone jar. with a
pint OF water and a little salt Re
place the Id OF the Jar and let IL stand
all night The next morning place the
jar In a saucepan OF boiling water and
let II simmer gentiy-but never boil
for Eve hours. Strain the fluid through
collander, but instead OF throwing
away the residue OF the meat. pound II
In a mortar Into a pulp. pass II
a wire sieve and add II I the
beef tea. Beef tea made according to
this recipe contains all the fiber and

much more nutritious than beef tea In
