The Fort Pierre Creamery re-
ports new stations beginning to
show up with cream already.

in the supply from west of The

cry has been enlarged and more
storage room added this winter, as
there will be more business next
spring and summer than ever be-
fore. The ice cream department
which was opened up last summer

Johnson Brothers and John
Black, having staked out mineral
claims a mile or so west of town
sometime ago, thought it was
about time to have some of their
mineral assayed, so in due time
they made up four parcels of it
and sent them to Rapid City, Den
YER and Chicago. When the re-
suit of the assayer's tests we're re-
turned to them, one of them, at
least, was found to be Of a 4ratify-
ing character. A certain No. 4
proved to contain 40 81 (4O and /
per cent? iron. This, in appear
ance, is what is usually called red
shnle." Another parcel produced
2.o4 per cent iron. Two others
showed small per cent of gold
and several more or less useful
ingredients besides. 1t is only
reasonable to suppose that if such
per cent of iron can be extracted
from these red lands with only a
random choice OF material, that a
much better grade OF ore might be
found If 2 systematic investigation
should be made by experts. The
assayer, in his report, has urged
the owners to make further search.
intlmating that this, being known
to Oe a specimen from the surface
only, is almost sure indication
that at a lower level the ore would
be much richer in iron. interior
