SUMS RAYS ON
TIN SET FIRE

Kimball, S. D., Sept. Especial:
A fire which partly destroyed the
fine barn on the farm of VIM. T.
Sleater in Aurora county is supposed
to have been started by the hot rays
of the sun shining on a bright piece
of tin. The fire was first discovered
by Mrs Sleater burning IN a pile of
refuse just outside the barn. She
fought the fire and supposed she
had extinguished it, but some hours
later it revived and the flames were
communicated to the barn. The
flames had gained such Roadway
when discovered the second time
that Mrs Sleater, who was at home
alone at the time, was unable to put
it out, so she summoned aid from
the neighborhood. The barn was
finally saved from complete destruc-
ton, Outside the barn a small piece
of bright tin was found, and every
thing indicates that the rays of the
sun shining on this had started the
fire,

BIG RETURNS ON
TESTED SEED

Last spring it was the intention of
the commercial club of Pierre to
have planted to tested seed corn one
thousand acres. Growing enthusiasm
over the experiment caused the COM
mercial club to enlarge upon its
original intention and it induced the
owners of twenty-five hundred acres
to plant the tested seed it provided.
Every acre Sc planted has now up
on it a matured crop of corn (all in
Hughes county, and each acre will
weld from rs TO 40 bushels. Instead
of sending out of the county next
spring for seed, the owners of the
twenty-five hundred acres will have
their own seed and a great deal
more seed to sell to their neighbors.
And every kernel will be acclimat-
ed and will yield more largely next
season than it will this season.
This is a correct statement of the
facts in the case and it proves again
the benefit to come to the farmer
from planting only tested seed, of
planting seed raised as near to his
farm rs possible. -Huronite.
