BROTHERS WILL DIFFER

There were two brothers who were left orphans when
quite young, and compelled to work for their
support and limited education. A few years ago one
of the boys then growing into manhood, came to the
office of the Los Angeles Investment Company to in
quire about starting. payments upon home AS ne
had not saved from his earnings the amount necessary
to make the small first payment he decided to invest
$40 month in stock in this Cooperative Building
Company and allow the quarterly dividends to be re-
invested thus compromising each quarter.
After a comparatively short time, the earnings
from these stock investments with the increased value
of the stock enabled him to handle good sized pay
ment upon home, by simply putting up his
stock as security for this payment: He got married
and took possession of the home. By saving from his
salary and making his regular monthly payments he
now has his home paid for, besides having good
block of stock paid for from which he is drawing
regular quarterly cash dividends.
The other brother could not see it that way, and
said he would not buy home until he had the money
to pay cash. as he did not like this payment plan.
The result is that he has been paying rent all these
years. and his surplus has been spent in other ways,
SO he is where he was when he began

The depot at Cottonwood was broken

he found that the hobo had broken
in and taken with him a pair of his

going West by the "tie pass" route.
Mr.. Mower secured a deputy marshal
who went after the culprit, capturing
him about three miles up the track,
and he was brought back and ar
raigned before Justice Wood, having
been captured with the goods on him.
After thinking the natter over, Mr..
Mower decided not to prosecute,
thinking that the matter was not
worth the trouble, SO the fellow was
turned loose and told to get out Of
town az soon as his feet would let
him. He made himself scarce imme-

heavily the night before, and was very
nervous when brought back to town.
He said he was on his way to Rapid

ARTESIAN SUPPLY DECREASING
Successful Wells in S. D. Rather Diff
ficuIt to Obtain.


That the artesian basin underlying
the central part Of South Dakota.
from which untold quantities Of water
have dubbed to the surface in the last
two decades, is beginning to be ex-
hausted is indicated by the increas-
ing difficulty with which successful
wells are obtained. For example,
Frank Mashek, near Kimball, has just
finished a we'll on his place near Kim
ball. 1t is 943 feet deep, but the
water will not come higher than to
within twenty-four feet Of the top. A
few years ago such a we'll would have
spouted water.
More than 1000 artesian wells have
been sunk in the eastern part of South
Dakota and about sixty-five west of
the Missouri river. Most OF those In
the eastern pair Of the state are from
500 to 1000 feet in depth. and they
yield a large supply OF flowing water.
The aggregate flow from these wells
is estimated at over 500, 100000 gal
Ions per day. At this rate water
enough is flowing from the South Da
kota artesian wells to make q lay a
foot deep and covering 100000 acres
of land in the course Of a year.

Salvation Of Farmer.
The successful growth Of these two
crops will in a sense prove the saliva
ton of farming in the Dakotas. Both
bring renovation to the soil. Such
renovation m through feeding it
and through supplying it with humus.
Both are capable of taking nitrogen
from the air and of depositing the
same in the soil. Both fill the soil
with their roots and thus keep up the
humus supply. The roots also aid in
keeping the soil in a proper mechanic
al condition. Where these crops or
either of them can be grown success
fully, the growth of wheat may con
tinue for years and years.
But the growth of these crops Is
going to exercise a beneticent inf1u-
ence in other ways. They are not
only going to make the successful
growth of live stock possible, but they
are going to force it's introduction IN
a way. These crops when grown must
be fed on the farm, because of their
bulkiness. This will make necessary
the growing of more live stock. They
will also furnish the protein element,
SO much lacking in the folders here
tofore grown in Dakota.
The protein element is much lacking
in native hay and in corn fodder. The
| clover and alfalfa will balance the
foods grown. The growing of live
stock will bring with it more fencing,
and the feeding Of coarse products.
This will mean the manufacture OF
more fertilizer and this in time will
mean the maintenance of soil fertility.
This will result in growing more bush
els Of wheat and fax of a better quail
ity. These changes are on the way,

REOPEN INVESTIGATION.

Owing to New Information Coming to
Light in the Death Of John p. Hens.
New information coming to light
will reopen the investigation into the
death Of John P. Hens, late receiver
of the Globe Gold Mining company, at
Lead. Hens was found at his home
with a Jagged wound in his head and
died without recovering consciousness.
AS no evidence against any n could
be found, the %coroner's jury returned
a verdict of accidental death due to
a fall. Since then suspicion has been
directed toward certain persons whom
the authorities are shadowing, and the
general belief is that Hens met his
death at the hands of some assailant.
A story of a friend to the effect that
just before his death Hens had sold
a valuable bunch of cattle and re
ceiyed the money, is being investi'
gated, as he had 70 money when
.cund. Hens is also believed to have
owned two valuable ranches near
Cambria. Wyo. He was a veteran OF
both the Mexican and Crimean var
and was seventy years of age. Sever
al creditors of the estate are seeking

GREAT BOOST PoR ABERDEEN.
Milwaukee viii Make Extensive In.

bu0tu IN
Arrangements have been completed
between the Milwaukee Railroad COM
pany and the city Of Aberdeen, by
which hat city will become one Of
the greatest railroad centers on the
Milwaukee system. The city council
has agreed to sell to the railroad a
tract of land in the west part of town,
on which the road will build extensive
yards and the greatest passenger and
freight terminal in the Northwest.
Sixty acres of land have been acquired
for that purpose. All of it will be
utilized at once, and the work is ex-
pected to be completed this summer.
The total expenditure will reach be-
tween S5OO,O 600 and $500, 900. The six
ty acres extend in mile long, on
which nineteen side tracks will be
built. A
All freight and passenger trains 60
ing both east and West will be made
up here, doubling the number of train
crews and their families residing in
Aberdeen. In addition to the freight
and passenger terminal facilities, car
shops will be built, which will equal
those OF any point on the system, and
a new modern passenger station will
be erected on the site of the present
station on Main street, at a cost ap-
preaching 100000, aand the freight
station which will be in accordance
with the mammoth character Of the
business to be handled will be located
on Third avenue west. near the new
yards.
The contemplated improvements will
ton to Aberdeen within the next two
years, it is believed, and will make
the town the most important division

STEAM FLOWING Is BOON.
One Outfit Can Turn Thirty-slx Acres
Of Sod a Day at so Cents an Acre.

Steam blowing" appears to be the
golden text among the farmers OF the
northern portion of South Dakota.
The demand for plows that may be
propelled by steam power, with steam
lifts. has increased amazingly the
past year. This is particularly true
with regard to that section OF the
state between WATERFOWL and Aber-
deem and in the region of the MIS-
souri, river valley from chamberlain
to the northern line of the state.
Not a few steam plows nave also
gone into the country west OF the rlV-
er to be operated in the four counties
formerly known as Butte county, be-
tween Belle Fourche and Lennon
Others will be operated in the terri
tory embraced within the Standing
Rock and Cheyenne reservations as
soon as these reservations are opened
to settlement, which will probably be
either the coming fall or early in the
spring of 1910.
The number of plows drawn by a
steam engine varies from six to
twelve, with now and then a gang OF
sixteen bottoms. For the most part
the preference seems to be for eight
or ten bottoms, drawn by an engine
of from 25 to 35 horsepower, although
a few engines of as horsepower have
been purchased for blowing purposes,
to which are usually attached a gang
of twelve plOWS.
On ground comparatively smooth
and reasonably free from stone 1t is
figured that with an engine OF q
quate power, these gang ploWs are ca
pable of breaking three acres to each
plow bottom. SO that a gang of twelve
turns over about thirty-six acres a
day. The average price for breaking
wild prairie is $3.50 an acre. The &C.
tual cost with steam plows under ia
vorable conditions is about SO cents
an acre, depending somewhat upon
the distance water and coal for the
engine have to be hauled. Those who
are engaging in the steam plowlng
business are counting on a profit OF
about SO an acre for breaking.

to help the town but to relieve the
farmers between Marion and Yankton

is thought that q north and south line

the other great centers would be OF
greater benefit to the people than an
east and west line which would only
tap a very small section Of this great
territory. Besides, this north and
south line could be very e~asilyextend-
ed north from Marion through Mont
rose and on to Madison and probably
Watertown later. This extension
would strike another prosperous sec.
ton which is as yet without proper
railway faculties, and altogether the
line would be one Of the most feast.

route are enthusiastic over the pros.
