PROPERTY Loss
HAS BEEN APPALLING
50 FAR our people have been bend
ing every energy toward caring for the
homeless and suffering, and have not
yet had time to take stock of their
losses While the property loss in our
rivers and valleys has been appalling.
inc mood situation threatens to become
serious. since the greater part OF this
year, crop is lost, and until roads and
railroads are rebuilt there is no way to
nrihs III supplies from outside.
~ goes without saying that the
business of our town has suffered a
serious blow, but we are using every
effort TO restore conditions to normal
as soon as possible. Fortunately, we
know Of no case where financial re-
sponsibility is badly impaired, and We
think business will he restored to nor

Within a few days travel will be al

days before all of the branch lines can

 The second class mail was all dis tributed yesterday afternoon and the big post office staff that has been handling the mail matter were distributing circualrs the bet ter part of the afternoon. With the expected arrival of the first fleet at the end of the week or on Sunday, the post office people will hav7 small time to rest. It is expected that this summer, as last summer was arranged later in the season every boat will carry Nome mail from Seattle and therefore the Una tilla ought to have big batch The Ilmatilla should arrive on Sunday.
 The cold spell froze up the water in several of the pipes in the Noon | light water system in town and for quite a while yesterday the flow was interrupted in a large section of the town. The backward season is still the subject of considerable comment and some say it is caused by sun spots, others by the war in Europe and others by the general election prospects. Quite a number are look ing for that weather wise native who declared that he could tell by the way the ptarmigans held their tail last March that this would pe an early spring. Practically all mining is at a standstill with little or no prospects of continuous clean up while crews are awaiting the flow of water in the camp. The work of getting the scows ready for launching proceeds apace down beyond the Standard Oil with large crew employed. They have cut away the big pile of ice and snow in front of the barges on tho beach so that all will be clear for launching when the ice leaves. The ice appears still quite solid from the shore, but this is probably due to the bars where great foes are securely anchored. The final touches to the tugboat Dayton is now being made down at the dock. The Dayton rests on skids in Front street and win have to be hauled for launching to the water instead of as heretofore hoisted with the cable way ana lowered to the water.

Greatest Alfalfa
Country In The us.

D. B. Guerney, of Yankton, Of
the big seed company, writes to
banker HALEY of Rapid Citya very
enthusiastic letter regarding west
ern South Dakota, a portion Of
which follows:
did you know that the RAPID
CiCy country, or rather the Black
Hills country, is probably produc-
ing more alfalfa seed each season
than any entire state in the union9
We have been told that the Black
Hill of South Dakota contains 100
square miles, the richest in the
world. This is your mining sec
ton. | think you can safely say
that western South Dakota has
several hundred square miles of
the richest agricultural land in the
United States, land that will pro-
duce more dollars per acre with the
least expense, and these square
miles may be increased almost to
the Missouri river. Irefer entire
~ to alfalfa seed. We have paid
in that county several times as high
~. -
as 500 per acre for seed and in
one case we paid this where the
land, l believe, was offered for sale
at SIS per acre. If were fortu-
nate enough to have money enough
to buy 100 acres of western South
Dakota alfalfa land and / wanted
to get rich quick with the least
possible exertion, l would certainly
invest that money in the alfalfa
land and let nature do the rest"

The New Bank
Guarantee Law.

Perhaps few of the citizens Of
this county realize as yet that a
new state law went into effect Jan
.uary 1st 1916 which is greatly to
greatly to their benefit. The pro-
lection Of the State Bank Guaran-
tee Law, enjoyed for some time
past by citizens of some OF our
sister states, and long wished for
by South Dakotans, is now ours.
The provisions of the law require
the creation and maintenance of
what is termed the Depositors
Guarantee Fund, out of which
fund, depositors will be paid in
case of bank failure. This fund
is maintained by assessment against
all state banks passing the special
examination made by the state,
and admitted to the benefits afford
ed by the law. Ample provision
is made for all demands that may
possibly be made on the Guarantee
Fund and the State Bank is now a
depository, the safety of which is
entirely beyond question. Else
where in this issue appears re-
production of the State Certificate
received by the local Live Stock
Exchange Bank January 3rd and
which evidences their admission as
a guaranteed bank.

Sugar
Factories Operating.

Sixty-seven beet sugar factories
as compared with sixty last year,
are now running full time through
out the beet belt of the country,
which stretches from Ohio to Cali
fornia. Based on preliminary re-
ports as to acreage and tonnage of
beets harvested, the total produc-
tion of these factories will approx
innate 100000 long tons for the
campaign, an increase of 16 per
cent, and a new high record for
the American beet sugar industry.
1t will exceed the former record of
1918 by almost 10000 tons. Last
year, shortly after the passage Of
the Underwood tariff bill, which
contained the provision for free
sugar, eleven beet sugar factories
closed down, but since the announ-
cement by the Wilson administra-
tion that this provision would be
repealed, seven of these factories
have reopened. The sixty-seven
factories now running are scattered
over IA states, Michigan leading
with fifteen, Colorado. which is
first in acreage and output, comes
second with fourteen factories.
California, which is second to Col
orado in production, is third with
eleven factories. Utah, with eight,
is fourth. While leading in the
number of factories, Michigan is
fouth in the acreage and tonnage.
These are the four states in which
the great bulk of the beet sugar
will be made. The total tonnage
in each is over 100000. Ohio and
Idaho, both important beet grow
ing states, each have four factories
in operation, while Wisconsin
ranks next with three and Neb-

raska follows with two. Six states,
Kansas, Wyoming, Montana,
Minnesota, Washington, and New
ada have each single factory
Iopen. It is estimated that the
farmers who grew this years crop,
will receive for it something like
$40, 900, 900. In Colorado alone
the sugar beet companies will ply
out some $40, 100000 to farmers
and employees this season. One
company will disbslrse in Utah and
Idaho $10,600,000 of which the
beet growers share will be about
Sc, 500, 900. California farmers
are reported to have also received
$6, 900, 900 for their crop and about
the same will be paid the Michigan
growers. Ii the present level of
prices continues, the 1916 crop Of
beet sugar will have a value of
about $4,000, 900 when it IS
marketed. Had we permitted free
sugar to destroy this industry as
Mr.. Spreckles and other refiners
urged, so they could supply US
with refined foreign grown sugar
at cheaper prices our American
farmers and workers would have
been deprived of this much money.
And those who believe the refiners,
once in possession of year-round
monopoly, would hold the prices
down, have a deeper faith in the
philanthropic nature of monopo-
lists than the nations past exper-
fences justifies. The Observer.

DOG WITH AN INDIVIDUALITY
kovsIIst's Pet Had Many PseuIisritIes.
Some Of Which Were the Cause
Of Embarrassment

During = summers sojourn in her
native home in Texas. Mrs. T. P.
O'Connor. the talented wife of "Tsy
Pay" wrote . book on the traits and
Individual characteristics of various
dogs that she has owned or known
While In New York. on the eve of her
return to England. she was inter
viewed by q representative OF the New
York Sun. 10 whom she told the fol-
lowing story Of a dog owned by Bar
RE. the famous novelist and dramatist
The dog was evidently the prototype
Of the Newfoundland IN Barrie's Lit
tie White Bird"
Mr.. Barrie told me this story" said
Mrs. O'Connor He said that the dog
had . craze for dolls. They would
pass q shop. and the dog would see
q doll displayed in the window and
manifest 4 wish for one. When Mr..
Barrie priced the dolls, the clerk
would invariably ask how old was the
child for whom It was intended. And
because he was ashamed to say that
the doll was for the dog. he would
reply: -Four years. as that was the
age OF the Newfoundland.
One Sunday they went to church
In the country. The dog had been
left outside. But he refused to be sep
arated from his family. At the nrst
opportunity he squeezed through the
door. and Mr.. Barrie beheld him march
ing up the slsle as the congregation
were waiting for the service to begin.
With a fascinated gaze his owner
watched him make his numbering way
to the pulpit stairs and then ascend
them. He looked all round, turning
bis head this way and that. in search
Of his master. Then. to gain better
vantage, he put his forepaws on the
Bible desk and calmly stood there on
his hind legs. surveying the assembled
congregation.
Mr.. Barrie did not wish to establish
his responsibility for such behavior.

Blower Replaces Baler in Handling
Hay

When hay is shipped in Colorado
it is usually baled and then loaded on
the car This scheme, however, ap-
pears to be too slow for some of the
hay producers on the Umatilla pro-
ject of the Reclamation service. These
hay shippers have devised a scheme
for chopping the hay by machinery
at the stack, loading it into box wag-
ons which hold about two tons or
upward These wagons deliver this
chopped hay at the railroad station.
A gasoline engine and an ordinary
blower is now used to blow the hay
from the wagon into the car. The
blower sucks the chopped hay out OF
the wagon and blows it viOlentl! into
the railroad cars for transportation.
BY this means il is said a somewhat
larger carload Of hay can be secured
than with the ordinary baled hay,
and the consignee uses a blower in
stead Of trucks to extract the hay
from the car and shoots it into his
warehouse or into his stockyard bin.
Handling hay in this way subjects it
to less waste than by the ordinary
method and is said to be less expens-
i've than balinR the same. Apparently
the idea is worthy Of adoption in other
parts Of the country.-E. b. House,
