CUSTER DAKOTA SATURDAY. JANUARY

used, the native timber being donated
by the Colorado Telephone Company
and the Central Colorado Power Com
pany. The cedar poles were bought by
the Forestry Service in the Denver mar
ket. They were cut in Idaho and cost
81 each.
The experiments showed that when
the three kinds of poles were of the
same diameter at the base, the cedar was
considerably stronger, the pine being
only 80 per cent and the spruce GA per
cent as resistant as the cedar. In elas-
ticity the pine was 98 per cent and the
spruce 70 per cent as strong as the
cedar.
When poles which had the same top
diameter were used, the spruce and pine
showed considerably more strength be-
cause of the greater degree Of tapering
which characterizes this kind Of timber.
Although the tests showed that cedar
is superior to either pine or spruce as
pole or pole material, the native timber
is by no means outclassed and should
be found very satisfactory the Forestry
officials say.
If the lodge-pole pine be treated with
preservative, it will outlast the cedar
in actual wear by at least 5 years. The
life of fre-killed lodge-pole pine which
has been treated with preservative is %
years. Untreated the pole would last
only years on an average.-Denyer

Meeting of Black Hills Pioneers.

The 23rd annual meeting of the Black
Hills Pioneers was held at Deadwood
last Saturday. We copy the following
paragraphs from the official proceedings
On June Sth, 1889, about 100 men,
who had entered the Black Hills in the
year of 1876, gathered at the court house
in the City of Deadwood and organized
the Society of Black Hills Pioneers.
The proceedings of the last annual
meeting, also proceedings of all direct
ors' meetings held during the past year,
were read by the secretary and were ap-
proved.
The next matter taken up by the
meeting was the amendment to Article 2
in our Constitution, as published for 80
days in the Pioneer-Times. The Presi-
dent instructed the Secretary to read the
amendment as follows:
can children of living or deceased
pioneers who arrived in the Black Hills
during or prior to the year 1875, shall be
eligible to membership" and explained
the object of the amendment. The
amendment was then put to a vote and
carried unanimously.
Our past year has not left us without
serious loss to our beloved society. 1t
is with sadness that we mention the
deaths of Brothers Thomas Thompson
on May 10th; John Fassold on June
Goth; James Harrison on July 18th |;
Albe Holmes on August Goth; Nathaniel
Lamb on September 10th.
r. d. Jennings now offered a motion,
seconded by Mr.. Ayres, that the Presi-
dent appoint committee of five to find
ways and means for the erection of a
monument to the man who first discov-
cred gold in the Black Hills and who
died six years ago,-Mr. H. N. Ross OF
Custer. The President appointed the
following committee: R. d. Jennings,
chairman; R. B. Hughes, P. A. Gushurst,
]. Goldberg, J. w. Mcdonald.

THE DAIRY COW.

The dairy COW does more than bring
financial success to the dairy farmer.
She makes him better citizen than he
would otherwise be. Her influence
upon home conditions is most pleasing
contribution to those factors which are
responsible for the changed conditions
which prevail in the farm homes of to-
day. Thousands of these homes are now
characterized by comfort and happiness
where formerly they were blighted by
drudgery and unhappiness.
Better financial conditions have
contributed to this change, and the
dairy COW has been in no small measure
responsible. She has contributed in
still another way. The dairy COW teaches
kirdness. Her owner soon learns that
only BY treating. her kindly can he se-
cure the highest possible returns from
her, and she responds quickly to kind
words and proper care. Her disposi-
ton is one that the human family might
we'll emulate. She is patient and long
suffering, acquiescing mutely in the
arrangement made by her owner for
carrying on the dairy business, striving
at all times to repay him for every effort
made for her care and comfort.
The members of the family, as they
come in contact with her and her kindly
disposition, are influenced for good. As
they appreciate the financial benefit to
come from caring for her we'll they take
q deeper interest in her. In doing 80,
they unconsciously cultivate those quali-
ties which make them better citizens.
The dairy cow--the prototype of mans
best friend-is welding greater influ.
ence than she is generally credited with.
She has always been found in the front
ranks in the march of civilization and
no agricultural country can long prosper
without her. She is potent factor in
the upeuilding of such country, finan-
cially, and socially, and a wise people
will appreciate her and encourage the
industry of which she is the founda
tion.-The National Dairy Union.

Fire-Killed Pine and Spruce for POLES.

A considerable market for the native
fre-killed spruce and pine of Colorado
may be opened as result of timber-test-
ing experiments conducted at Boulder
by the local branch of the United States
Forestry Service. The results indicate
that for timber of the same size at the
top, lodge-pole pine and Engelmann
spruce are practically equal in strength
to the western red cedar, which is the
usual material for telephone and tele-
graph poles.
The investigations were made in the
timber testing laboratory of the Uni

7 inches in top diameter and rs feet

CREW POISONED
Old Jug Used for Water Still Held
Some Poison.

Darlington, N. D., Sept. 25.-Three
members Of Daniel Neiman's threshing
crew were laid out from formaldehyde
poisoning. Mr.. Neiman was one Of
those poisoned. The prompt use of
emetics prevented any fatalities.
A jug that had been used to hold
f~ormaldehyde had been picked up for
use as a water jug in the field by one
Of the men. The jug still contained
some of the poisonous liquid, but it's
presence was not known. The jug
filled with drinking water and
three members of the threshing crew
had sought 1t out to quench their
thirst before It vas found that the
formaldehyde was still present.
A prompt trip from the field to the
Neiman home vas made and emetics
taken by the three men who had be-
come suddenly i'll. A Darlington
physician was summoned and made q
hasty trip to the farm in Rose Hill
Upon his arrival he found
that the men had freed their stom-
achs Of the poison and he prescribed
some drugs to relieve the pain. One
Of the threshers had taken more Of
the polluted water than the rest and
as a result was suffering more pain.
None Of the men will suffer serious
