Lueck, in one Cooking" uncovered
two of the finest pearls yet taken
from shells in the big stream. He
had dumped into the huge kettle his
first haul in several weeks, and was
engaged in cleaning the shells when
perfect 18-grain pearl rolled out OF
one of them. A few moments later,
while those collected about him were
admiring his "find," another pearl was
uncovered which is not quite perfect,
but which weighs fourteen grains.
The two pearls are of excellent hue,

With the finding of the two pearls,

MILLIONS MADE IN MILK.
Farmers of Freeborn County Alone Get

The farmers of one county in Min
nesota, Freeborn, received 1852
for milk and cream in 1910, according
to figures compiled by the State Dairy
and Food department for Commission
er J. G. Winkjer's annual report. This
is SCI for every man, woman and
child in the county, or more than $500
a family, assuming there are about
five persons to a family. In 1909 Free
born county farmers received $938,884
for milk.
The total amount paid the farmers
Of the state last year for milk and
cream was $25,000,000, according to
Mr.. Winkjer's report. This is only
what was paid through cooperative
creameries, and does not include what
farmers received who sold cream to
centralizers or made their own butter.
In 1909 the total was $21,000,000. This
shows an increase OF $4,000,000.

ing better prices this year than ever
before" said F. w. Mcintosh, secre-

HAIL At PiPESTONE.;
Several Persons Injured and Dogs and
Chickens Killed.

Pipestone.-For ten minutes Sunday
afternoon it looked as though Pipe
stone would be wiped from the face
of the earth by the most terrific hail
storm that ever visited this section.
The storm approached the city from
the northwest and for ten minutes the
hail was driven by a cyclonic gale.
Every window pane exposed to the
north was demolished, the heavy
plate glass windows in the large stores
in the business section being battered
to pieces. Fences were torn down by
the hail, chimneys were pounded to
pieces, trees were stripped of their
leaves and branches, hundreds of
chickens were killed, as were also sew
eral dogs and hundreds of sparrows.
Thousands of panes of glass were
broken and roofs were torn to pieces.
There was heavy damage from water
In most of the business places. The
court house suffered from broken win
dows and hundred and fifty windows
were broken in the nigh school build
ing. In all the churches the costly
windows were demolished. The win.
dows in the Masonic temple were all
broken and the hail pounded holes
through the roof. Several persons
were badly injured by broken glass
and hail stones. .@
The hail stones were the largest
ever seen here. They measured all
the Way from walnut IN = pOod sizod
orange in size, some of them measur-
ing nine inches in circumference. Just
north of the city in the vicinity of the
Indian school the hail was piled up in
huge drifts like snow in the winter.
In the country where the storm
struck, corn and flax were pounded in
to the ground.
