A COLLECTORS RusE.

The Way He Secured . Rare Piece Of
Dresden Ware.
We should cultivate our fancy for old
china as did the late Mr.. Wertheimer,
the art dealer, concerning whom there
Is a story that every bargain hunter
should take to heart
Wertheimer was one day passing
through Mayfair when be noticed q
sale about to take place of the 'turni.
ture and household effects Of q de-
ceased nobleman." He walked through
the rooms where dealers were critical
~ examining choice specimens Of un-
aoubtedly genuine Chippendale and
Sheraton. interspersed among early
Victorian furniture. his eyes apparent
" dwelling On nothing. but when the
sale was ubout to commence he asked
the auctioneer IT he would take E5.OOU
for everything In the house.
The offer was accepted. Nov you
can resell everything for me-" snid Mr..
Wertheimer, except this" and he took
down from the mantelpiece IL dirty or
nament some nine inches high and put
1t into his pocket. 1t was II piece Of
the rarest Dresden. bearing the covet-
ed mark of the wand of Aescuiapius.
which he afterward sold for flO,OUO.
How the dealers metaphorically kick
ed themselves for overlooking 1t aud
how they bid against one another In
the chance Of securing a similar treas
ure is still a tradition In Bond street
London Chronicle.

per last June has been fully and.
completely verified by results.
The Union predicted two hum
dred residences could be built
and still not supply the demand
for houses. Rapid City is en-
joying a steady growth, and
has since the advent Of the rail-
roads from the east. The city
is destined to continue to grow
and in the course of q few years
not only be supported by a pros
porous agricultural and mining
community but by a wholesale
and manufacturing district.
Those who pin their faith to
Rapid City now and help her
grow will make no mistake.

The business men Of Rapid
City are interested in a move
ment to cause the M. & st. T..
road to be extended from Vale
to the city, and are willing to
do what is right in the matter.
r. N. limerick, president Of tile
Business Mems club, has been
instructed to enter into negoti-
ations with officers of the COM
pany and ascertain what can be
accomplished. Another move
of interest is the extension Of
the Rapid City, Black Hills &
Western from Mystic to the
coal fields Of Wyoming. If this
is done it will place the city in
immediate touch with the coal
fields and be Of much benefit.
The officers Of the company
have had the extension in mind
for some time, and in all prob
ability will make the extension.
Such IN extension would be an
|inducement for the N. & st. u.
people to make the extension
from Vale, as it would make
good business for them.

WEALTH IN CROPS.

M VEAL II IN CHOPS.
While estimates Of the crops
of the state at this time are
purely guesses on the outcome,
the deductions Of a staff CORE
spondent Of the st. Paul Dis
patch are Of interest to the peo-
pie of the state. He has, gone to
the trouble Of Interviewing peo-
pie in position to be reasonably
well posted and his estimate
gives the year 1909 credit for
beng the best in the eighth sue
cessive season of crop raising in
South Dakota. He estimates
the wealth produced this year
at $20G, 1873, 900, as against
$195, 434 ,430 in 1908. He fig
ures there was an increased
acreage of wheat this year Of
fully ten per cent over last year,
avering II to Is bushels to the
acre according to locality.
An estimate of the crops by
w. q. Allen Of the Dakota Far
mer places the wheat yield at
51,120,000 bushels, and the
farmers of this state believe that
it will average a dollar per BUSH
eel. The corn is estimated at
.65, $40, 900 bushels, valued at
$36,230,0 900. All of it is now
practically out of danger of
frost, and a great many fields
have been cut. An oat crop Of
Al, $500 bushels has been
harvested, which will bring the
farmers about $12, 500, 900.
The barley yield is placed at
$780, 900 bushels, with a val
ne Of $50, 252, 900, and the flax
crop at 1864, 900, appraised at
1856, 900.
Last year the live stock in
dustry Of the state netted those
engaged in that line $39,977.-
$50. It is not believed that to-
tai will be reached this year,
while the DAIRY industry will
produce only a scant So, OOO,-
600, as against Sic ,OOO.O 900 a
few years ago. The hay crop.
this year, estimated 3,5OO,OOO
tons, will bring in close to $17,-
100000, while potatoes and
other vegetables are expected
to go about SIS, 1000, 900, and
poultry and eggs another 3d.
600 600. Wool and hides will
produce closet to a million, while
the minerals Of the Black Hills
district in the western part Of
South Dakota, will help the
grand aggregate about $40, OOO,-
900.

FARMERS ARE pRosPEsous.
The Chicago Droyers' ,Jor

FARMERS ARE PROSPESOUS.
The Chicago Drovers' Jour.
nal, commenting on the ten.
dency of the times to secure
wealth, maintains that the farm.
ers as a rule are prosperous, and
that agriculture has opened a
new field Of financial independ.
ence with the dawn of applied
science to the cultivation of the
land. The farmer is no longer
looked upon as a newer Of wood
and carrier Of water, but is re-
garded as a person Of import
ance by all the financial inter
ests Of the country. Tho call
ing of husbandry has been ele-
waited to the dignity Of a pro-
fession and agricultural colleges
are now endowed to teach the
highest principles Of soil Guilt
Walton and live stock industry.
The Importance Of the farmer
in national prosperity is meas
ured by the volume Of wealth
which he produces. Vast as is
the output of the factories,
mines and operations Of the
railroads, it sinks into insignif-
canoe in comparison with the
aggregate wealth annually pro-
duced on the farm. The out
put Of the farms in 1908 was so.
vast as to be incredible if it
were not indorsed by the Agri-
cultural Department of the gov
eminent, with the prospects
that the crops of 1909 will ex-
coed in value the harvest of last
year.
The itemized production last
year showed that the diaries
produced approximately $780,
100000. The seemingly small
item Of poultry aggregated as
much as the hay or cotton har-
vest. The corn crop reached a
value. Of $1,615, OOO, 900. With
detailed items of such enormous
proportions it is reasonable that
the farms produced in 1908 no
less than ITS, 900, 700. The
estimate of the cereal crop Of
1909 gives 725, 100000 bushels
Of wheat, 2,945, OOO, 900 bushels
Of corn, 997, OOO, 900 bushels Of
oats, 100000 bushels Of rye
andS1sS2, 10000 barley. With
such stupendous production in.
singht the current year the val
ne Of the seasons crops is esti-
mated at S., 600, 600.
With such vast creation Of
wealth in sight the Importance
of agriculture is intensified and
all doubt eliminated Of the abil-
ity Of the farms to feed and.
clothe the population of nation.
even when its present volume
isdoubled. AS great as is the
present production Of wealth Of
the farms, the agricultural OUT
put can be largely increased by
improved methods of farming
and the reclamation Of vast
areas Of desert andswamp lands
BY irrigation and drainage.

HE is FAMOUS NOW.

The discovery of the north
pole, if it is really correct, by
DR.. Frederick A. Cook Of Brook
Ign, has made him the most ia
nous man in America and one
Of the greatest discoveries of the
world. He made the trip on
his own suggestion and worked
out the details in excellent man
ner, accomplishing a mission
many hundreds have failed at
and in which several hundreds
have lost their lives. While
the discovery means much to
the world it means more to DR..
Cook. His name will be on the
lips Of everyone and he will be
remembered for ages with pages
Of history emblazoned with his
achievements. Aside from the
fame attaching there is a tinan-
cial consideration which makes
him rich beyond measure. Al
ready an astute New York the
atrical manager has cabled HIM
an offer of $3.50, 900 for $50 lee
lures, as it is believed the peo-
pie will want to see him and
hear from his own lips the sto-
ny of his perilous trip into the
unknown frozen north. Much
will be written of him and his
expedition. When he stepped
from the steamer Hans Egde at
Copenhagen last Saturday on
his homeward journey, he was
warmly greeted by the populace.
He stepped from the boat ac-
companied by the Crown Prince
of Denmark and was the guest
of honor Of the country during
his respite there. In his re-
marks he stated that the tenn
%perature of the pole was minus
50, and said: 81 took 400 pho
tographs showing the American
flag flying at the pole. The
distance covered each day was
slightly less than fifteen miles,
and on the southwark it was
ten miles, which is not abnor-
NAL for Eskimos on the ice.
They often travel sixty miles
with dogs. We fed the dogs
we'll throughout the winter in
Greenland and ran them 400
miles, giving them fresh meat
daily. Thus we brought them
to the polar sea fat and well by
not taking the famine route.
We lived entirely on dried meat
and beef tallow, reducing the
food problem to a science. The
last trace Of animals was at 80
degrees, afterwards no signs Of
life in the water except algae.
During the trip we ate all kinds
|of meat, including musk OK,
Ebear, fox and the lilu." DR..
Cook is going to New York as
soon as possible, when he will
give a more detailed account Of
his trip.
