For several years the farmers OF
Carson Valley have been trying to inn
prove dairy conditions. Their co.
operative creamery has the greatest
output of all the creameries in the
state. AT present il handles the
cream from about $500 cows with an
average of monthly cream check ap-
proximating $3.50 COW. Some of the
dairymen In the Valley are receiving
S. to Sl0.50 COW a month and this
diiferenc. between the average and
the actual returns from the best
COWS has led large number of the
farmers to believe that they would
make more money by feeding fewer
cows, provided those cows paid IA
higher average dividend.
With this in mind, movement has
been started to form "A COW testing as
sociation. The plan is similar to that
followed in other states and briefly
is as follows:
A tester goes to each members herd
once each month. He weighs the milk
from each COW, both morning and
night. and from each milking takes a

MARRIAGE ANNIVERSARY
MIR. and Mrs. Joseph Hutchinson OBJ
serve Fifty-Ninth Day in
Sioux City.

The following from the Sioux City
Journal is of local interest in view of
the fact that the family is we'll
known in Madison. Joseph Hutchin-
son was the contractor who built
Syndicate block in this city, and +.
B. Hutchinson of Des Moines was for
many years a business man of Mad
ison, occupying the building now oc-
cupied by Wethe Bros:
I'm their home, at 1928 Twenty
first street, which they have occupied
for the twenty years they have lived
in Sioux City, Mr.. and Mrs. Joseph
Hutchinson today will celebrate the
%ifty-ninth anniversary of their mar
riage. Both Mr.. and Mrs. Hutchin-
son are SO years old.
Mr.. and Mrs. Hutchinson were
married in Blaisville, Pa, January
80, 1856. After their marriage they
lived at Elgin, H., for a ear and
then moved to DEBORAH, Ia, where
they made their home for thirty
years. In 1887 they moved to Sioux
City, and have since made their home
here.
when Mr.. Hutchinson moved to
Sioux City he engaged in the crushed
stone business. He supplied most of
the stone used in the large buildings
that were put up along Fourth street
during the boom times. He also sup
piled the stone which vas used in the
Northwestern railroad bridge across
the Missouri river. Mr.. Hutchinson
was actively engaged in business un-
til about six years ago, when an ac-
cident disabled him and forced him
to retire.
MIR. and Mrs. Hutchinson are the
great grandparents of three children.
They have twenty-three grandchil-
dren. Eight of the ten children of
Mr.. and Mrs. Hutchinson are living.
All of the six boys of the family are
engaged in the ice cream business in
various parts of Iowa. The children
who are living are William r. Hutch
inson, f. J.. Hutchinson and Miss
Nellie Hutchinson of Sioux City; G.
J. Hutchinson and +. b. Hutchinson
of Des Moines; c.. r. Hutchinson of
Cedar Rapids. and Mrs. M. McRaith
of Iowa City.
"Mr. and Mrs. Hutchinson were
born in Ireland. They both came to
this country in the early SOS. but
we're not acquainted with each other
at the time. Mr.. Hutchinson made a
trip through the west. Upon his re-
turn to the east he met Mrs. Hutch
inson and they were married. They
attributed their longevity to their
active mode of living.
"Only a quiet celebration will be
held today. Mrs. F. B. Hutchinson
of Des Moines, and Mrs. M. McRaith
of Iowa City will attend the celebra-
ton. 1t is the first time that the
family has failed to assemble to OBJ
serve the anniversary"

GOOD INCREASE
Big Gains shown in Report of Belle
FOurche Project tor 1919.

Belle Fourche, Jan. 30.-The crop
yield report of the Belle Fourche
project for 1914 shows a very sub
stntial increase in practically all
products. Alfalfa, corn, oats and
barley, show the greatest gains,
some of these increasing 100 per
cent. The 1914 total value of all
crops raised was worth $4,000
more than the 1913 crop while the
value per acre increased $3.50. The
live stock has kept pace with the
other farm products and shows at the
close of 1914 an increased total value
over the previous year OF S240, 900.
There were 36.709 acres cropped
in 1914 against $4,000 in 1913 and
as there will be 1000 acres Of new
land opened for settlement about
March Is, the 1915 report should
maintain the pace set in the past
years.
