The Farmer Found Out

Once a farmer had 300 bushels
of wheat, which he sold, not to a
grain merchant, but 1900 differ
ent dealers a bushel each, says an
exchange. A few of them paid
cash, but far the greater number
said as it was not convenient they
would pay later. A few months
passed and the mans bank account
ran low. How is this?" he said.
my 1900 bushels of grain should
have kept me in affluence until
another crop is raised, but l have
parted with the grain and instead
have a vast number of accounts so
small and scattered that l cannot
get around and collect fast enough
to pay, so he posted up a public
notice and asked all those who
owed him to pay quickly. But
few came. The rest said, mime
is only a small matter, and l will
pay some other day." forgetting
that though each account was very
small, when all was put together
they meant a large sum to one
man.
Things went on thus. The man
got to feeling so bad that he fell
out of bed and awoke, running to
his granary found his ], 800 bushels
of wheat still there. He had only
been dreaming. Moral-The next
day the man went to the publisher
of his paper and said, Here, sir,
is the pay for your paper, and
when next years subscription is
due you can depend on me to pay
pay promptly. Istood in the posi-
tion of an editor last night, and !

While out hunting yesterday Mr..
and Mrs. Guy Flick, in company
with Emory SWEET, attempted to
drive into the river near Little
Dogs ranch south OF town. The
bank was rather steep and the
arrangement known as the ''fifth
wheel" of the buggy broke and
the vehicle tipped forward upon
the horses, spilling out the three
occupants. Mrs. Flick caught the
lines while falling and clung to
them desperately, being scarcely
aware, probably, of what she was
doing owing to fright and excite
ment. She was dragged through
the river, the mud of the shore,
over rocks and other Instructions
until the lines we're jerked from
her hands. DR.. Flick feared be-
fore an examination, that her back
was broken or dislocated, but in
vestigation showed that two ribs
we're broken and many bruises
were distributed upon all portions
of her body. She was made as
comfortable as possible, but the
pain did not leave her until near
morning. She is resting well to-
day however and there are reason
able hopes of her speedy recovery.

REPORTS VERY ENCOURAGING
Where Threshing Has Been Done, Yield
Better Than Anticipated

Magnus Easthouse, threshed his
grain, Friday. He had in about
20 acres to wheat and that which
was on old corn ground gave an
average yield of 20 bushels. His
yield of barley and oats was much
better than he expected. .-Ottum-
wa.
A drive in the country would
convince one that the crop condi-
tion is not so bad as some people
imagine. We saw a 20 acre field
of corn on the Thomas place that
is almost certain to yield an aver
age crop. And there are a good
many fields that will do as we'll
south of town. An early frost is
the only thing that will prevent a
good corn crop.-Capa Hustler.
The editor and his family visited
the ranch of John Farnum while
out driving last Sunday, and un-
fortunately found Mrs. Farnham
had been confined to her bed for
several days. Mr.. Farnham has
a grand situation for home.
Beautiful scenery is prominent
feature of the place; the ranch
house being set snugly to the north
side of a rather grand looking can
yon which is covered on it's slopes
and bottom with wild fruit and
forest trees, the walls plunging to
a depth of 200 #. or more. Good
and substantial buildings are there
in plenty. The crops are very
good considering the long drouth
of the summer and the kitchen
garden is a marvel of luxurious
growth. Melons, cucumbers, rape,
squash, beets and all vegetables
common to this climate were green
and thriving almost beyond belief.
Best of all, were many fruit trees
in seemingly good condition. All
in all, it was a very pleasant and
profitable visit ond we shall take
pains to arrive there oftener in
future. Interior Index.
Now that the threshing is pretty
well along results show that this
season has not been such an un-
productive one. The amount of
the yield is not as heavy as we
would like but the quality of the
grain is very od.-Ottumwa.

Trouble at Dalzen

AS a result of an i'll feeling of
some months standing, it is alleged
that Richard A. Fenner took two
shots at Frank Busick, at the Stacy
Fenner place near Dalzell, on
Wednesday of last week. Mr.. Bus
ick went to Sturgis Friday and
swore out complaint against Fen
ner, charging him with assault
with a deadly weapon with intent
to kill. An officer from Sturgis
came out this week and served the
warrant, but Mr.. Fenner was not
taken into custody. He was in
Wasta Thursday on his way to
Sturgis, where his preliminary
hearing will be held today Fri
day..
Just what led to the trouble the
Gazette knows not, but it is stated
that Fenner had warned Busick
not to come on to his place again.
Wednesday morning of last week,
w. A. Hicks and Busick started
to Fenner's after a scraper and
when they got to Stacy Fenner's,
about a mile from 4. A. Fenner's,
Busick got out of the wagon and
remained there while Hicks went
on. 1t is alleged that Eenner got
his rifle, ran across the field to
where Busick was and took two
shots at him, both of which went
wild. Knowing of the i'll feeling
that existed and seeing Fenner 60
ing across the field with his rife,
Mr.. Hicks hastily drove back to
Stacy Fenner's and arrived in time
to take Busick into the wagon be-
fore anything further was done.
1t is not thought that Mr.. Fenner
really shot to kill Busick but
rather to scare him, for "Dick"

Save the Straw

Reports from all parts of the
state show a shortage of hay; and
the Minnesota Experiment Station
again tells the farmers to husband
we'll their straw. 1t will be needed
in the towns, as we'll as on the
farms. There has seldom been
year when straw and especially
oat straw has been so greatly
needed for feed rs it will be during
the coming winter. Farmers will
be tempted by large apparent pro-
fits to sell all the hay they can
possibly spare. Hence they will
find a great advantage in feeding
their straw, as far as possible, as
substitute for hay on the farm.
The weather has been favorable
for stacking grain, and the straw
ought to- be fresh and bright.
When the grain is threshed, a lit
tie care will preserve the straw in
good condition for fodder. Min

Patrick McReynolds Injured

Patrick McReynolds met with
quite a serious accident last week
Thursday which will lay him up
for some time. His team started
to run while he was opening a gate
and in an endeavor to stop them
he was thrown to the ground and
the rear wheel of the wagon passed
over his ley breaking it just above
the knee. Medical assistance was
summoned and after the injured
member was set, he was brought
to Philip and taken to the Fort
Pierre hospital Thursday night.
Last reports state that he is doing
as we'll as could be expected un-
der the circumstances.
