CAUGHT in THE CYLINDER.

Charles Crondland was killed on
Wednesday afternoon, while work
ing with the threshing machine be-
longing to Osman Olson, the accident
occurring within a short distance OF
his home just south of Hetland.
1t seems that MI. Cronland had
climbed to the top of the separator to
extricate soma bundles that had been
clogged in the self feeder, and in
stepping to the front of the machine
either stumbled or lost his footing
and fell into the cylinder. AS his
foot struck the cylinder he was drawn
in by the rapidly revolving teeth,
and the cylinder cap opened up al
lowing the entire length Of his leg tc
to 60 into the machine, the belt be.
ing thrown by the impact. He was
80 tightly wedged into the cylinder
that it was found necessary to un'
bolt the boxings and raise il in order
to extricate him. He lived only about
ten minutes after being loosed. AT

South Dakota has a good corn
crop and it's all on the right side of
the saftey line. That means a good
profit for the farmer. There is no
crop that seems to pile up the profits
like corn. Perhaps this is due in
part to the fact that other crops are
marketed first and the greatest part
of the yearly expense is paid from
the proceeds, leaving the revenu
from corn to pile up in the shape Of
profits.
The grocery grafters arrived Mon
day morning and have commenced a
canvas of this locality. There is no
excuse for the exi stence of these
grafters. The local INGREDIENTS are
here with large stocks of goods ready
to duplicate any bill at the same price
for the same quality of goods that
these grafters offer. furthermore, the
local dealer is behind every bill of
goods he sells and is ready to make
good for articles not as represented.
On the other hand, the grafter's
guarantee is worthless. He delivers
the goods, collects the money and has
faded away before any protest can be
registered. This graft should be
passed up and the CRATER invited to
move on.-Bancroft Register.

not look as it appeared to him in
memory bnt gradually the hills and
valleys were reduced to the old time
size and everything seemed like the
old With all the pleasures
