The work of moving the old court
house has been progressing rather
slowly, the past week being devoted
to raising the building and placing it
IN skids, but it is thought that it will
be on the move some time today.
Part of the big chimney was torn
Town and the rest has been securely
braced up. 1t was the intention to
move the vaults in the auditors and
clerks offices, but the former caved in
while being braced up and it was
necessary to tear it down.
Last week the House farm five miles
northeast of town changed hands at
almost a record price. 1t consists of
800 acres and was sold for $32, 900, or
500 an acre, which is about the big
gest amount of money paid for a
Brookings county farm in some time.
The purchaser was Chas. Pullman of
Sac county, Iowa, and the last owner
of the land was Samuel Hahne of the
same county. This farm is a fine one,
but the land nor the improvements
are no better than ore of Brook
ings county farms.

OUR JOSIE
NJ. c. Robbins.

He's a roguish little creature,
Eyes so full of fun and mirth;
He's the sunshine of our home-life,
Has been ever since his birth
His bright face is full of dimples,
All his hours are full of joy;
He's my darling little grandson,
He's my precious little boy.
Every day he laughs and chatters,
Paddles all about the place;
When you call him he's in mischief,
But he'll have a serious face.
One day when ] found him quiet,
He had dolly in his lap:
But her eyes were gone entirely,
In their place a horid gap.
Then he'll torment our pet kitten.
Pull her tail and pinch her ears;
She viii hiss and try to scratch him
Then he'll run-that's all he cares.

BABYs TERRIBLE SUFFERING

when my baby was six months old.
his body was completely covered with
large sores that seemed to itch and
burn, and cause terrible suffering.
The eruption began in pjmples which
would open and run. making large
sores. His hair came out and finger
nails fell off, and the sores were over
the entire body. causing little or no
sleep for baby or myself. Great scabs
would come on when removed his
shirt.
We tried a great many remedies.
but nothing would help him, till a
friend induced me to try the Cuticura
Soap and Ointment. l used the Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment but short
time before could see that he was
improving, and In six weeks time he
was entirely cured He had suffered
about six weeks before we tried the
Cuticura Soap and Ointment, although
we had tried several other things. and
doctors, too. think the Cuticura Rem
edies viii do all that Is claimed for
them. and a great deal more"

pigs are narrowed, furnishes plenty
of fresh air. AMI provides for exercise
in the open air Dryness. sunshine.
warmth. fresh air. freedom. from
drafts, and exercise are of primary
importance in raising pigs. These Sc
cured, the battle is half won. In
putting up buildings the six require
mepts just mentioned must be kept
constantly In mind; not one can be
nc elected
Tho variety OF hog houses is almost
as great as the variety of individuals
using them. II is rare. indeed. to find
even a semblance OF uniformity pre-
vailing In a community. There are.
however. only two or three general
types which commend themselves to
tho careful hog man. or the two
styles of large houses. the larger has
two rows Of pens. an alley through the
middle, and jog in the roof for win
dows TO light the north pens. while
the smaller has but one row of pens.
with an alley and row OF windows
on the south side The double house
reason is to be preferred. Less work
is also required to care for the hcgs
than where a single row on pens is
used.
A large hog house should always
stand east and west. facing the south.
so that the maximum amount OF sun
shine may be had in each pen. When
a double house is used, which is much
the cheapest. the outside pens on the
north are often OF little use In early
spring and late fall on account OF the
shade and the cold winds. This DIFF
tlculty can be partially overcome by
changing sows so that those which
have not farrowed and those with the
oldest pigs, which have least need of
warm outside pens. are on the north
side.
In a majority OF large hog houses
the upper windows are not so placed
that the sunshine will strike the floor
when It is most needed there. In.
deed hog house with the windows
In the proper position is rarely seen.
Direct sunshine ssould strike the floor
In every pen for as many hours In the
day as possible al Tie time when the
pigs are narrowed. Nearly every one
realizes this Is a matter Of the great
est importance. but too often the
builder docs not take the trouble to
find out whether he Is getting II or
not. Ordinarily the farmer has no
means of ascertaining where to put
the windows so as to set the max
imum amount of sunshine at the time
he wants It. unless he happens TO be
building Just at that time. which is
very unusual. The country is dotted
with hog houses in which the owner
thought he was putting the windows
where he wanted them but found
later they were In the wrong place.
la double houses the windows for
lighting the south pens must be as
high up as possible In order TO get
them away from the hogs.

These pellets are then pierced
with hatpins, and are strung on the
pins to dry. When a big beadmaking

girls buy up all they can find at the

Then the Indian maidens stretch

from these strings they suspend the

process of drying consumes several
days. and during this time the girls

their queerly decorated rooms.

Learn WhIsa Mans Petty Crafts
One OF her regrets is that the In
dian artisan, engaged in the making
OF blankets, baskets and other beauti-
full curios. is learning the vices Of the
white man, SO that now inferior ar
ticles are being made and sold SO ex-
! tensively that only an expert is free
from the danger Of being swindled.
Their education at the Sherman in
stitute consists Of the common school

and In addition they are given indus
trial training. Upon graduating from

do as they please. Some OF them go
to the higher institutions of learning.
such as tie Carlisle school. and some.
whose parents can afford 1t, enter
other large American colleges.
Others go back to their reserva-
lions, where they become teachers in
! the reservation schools or enter into
| the active life of the tribe. where their
superior education soon makes them

their summer work. hire themselves
out as skilled servants to the Cali

A few go TO the cities and become a
part Of the great active world OF
Auerica. putting themselves upon an
equa. footing and in competition with
white men in their chosen trades or
professions. Many OF these Indians
have more than made good in the bat

California. Mrs Garfield believes the
government is doing great work at
