The Same Thing Can Be
Done In Jackson
County

That the old milk COW has been
the salvation of the Jackson coun-
ty settler we all know. Seven out
OF every ten of our settlers owe
their success--whatever il may. be
IN financial way--to the milk COW
and yet we are not receiving the
amount OF good we could receive
il we would all milk more COWS.
We hear the complaint quite often,
that it is awful hard work, ETC."
to milk bunch Of COWS, yet every
reader of the Press knows that the
farmer who is milking the COWS, is
the fellow who is getting out of
debt every week and month of the
year.
Read the following statement by
John t. Cogan of Sioux Falls,
which appeared recently in the Ar
gus-Leader, and you will note what
the COW has done for the farmer
up in Green County, Wisconsin.
Jackson county with her cheap
lands, nutritious grasses and great
alfalfa ranches offers a great op-
| portunity for the worker.

Milk Cows Make Rich Community
One Wisconsin County Sells $3,7S5,064.lS In
Dairy Products

This condition has all been
brought about" said he, by the
COW. The western part OF South
Dakota is far more favorably sit
uated for dairying, cheese making
and general farming than Green
county, Wisconsin, and the change
will come much sooner here than it
did there. The total wealth OF
Green county, according to the lat
est tax figures and the statements
of conditions bv the banks of that
county is SIS, ,2Io, o62. 78, or per
capita of 81, 425.83. And practical
ly every dollar of this wealth came
from the COW and dairying indust-
nv. South Dakota, with her rich
native grass, the home of alfalfa
and the unqeualled opportunities
for raising cattle, and the high per-
centage of butterfat, should profit
by the experience of Wisconsin and
if it does will soon rank as the rich
est state in the union. No one dis
putes the fact that the native grass
es of South Dakota produce more
fat, more milk, more cream, than
the cultivated grasses of the high
priced grasses of the eastern lands.
When this becomes fully under
stoood there will be no cheap lands
in South Dakota. 1t was in I845."

said Mr.. Cogan, that little band
OF Swiss emigrants, after many
weary months of travel, landed in
the north part OF Green county. In
remembrance OF the section from
which they had come they called
the place New Glarus. The near
est market for the colonists was
Milwaukee, more than 100 miles
away, With the price of wheat
ranging about IS cents a bushel it
would not pay the cost of hauling
to market by team. Then came a
plague OF chinch bugs. Nearly
disheartened, and at their wit S end
we're the colonists when they heard
that drover from the east brought
into neighboring section several
cows for sale to the new settlers.
Several head were purchased for
SI2 each and in a short time COW
was purchased for each family in
the colony. From this sprung the
dairying industry of Green county,
Wisconsin. There are now 38, oo2
COWS in Green county, the product
OF which is keeping I53 cheese fac
tories, three creameries and three
condenseries in operation. Last
year there was produced 1875, ,6S5. :
452 pounds of milk which was util-
lzed in the manufacture of 6, ISS, :
825 pounds of Swiss cheese, 3,o4I, :
465 pounds of limburger, I, $50, TAI
pounds OF brick and 5II, $50 pounds
of American cheese, in addition to
4I7,456 pounds of butter. Added
to this there was manufactured on
the farms Ala, 400 pounds of cheese.
The total value of the manufacture
ed product for the year was So, 785, =
o64.IS. And all of this from ore
county. South Dakota farmers
have a gold mine on their farms il
they but knew it. Hundreds oil
acres of rich, native milk produc-
ing grass are going to waste in this
state every year. But the future
will take care of this problem, and
every farm will be wealth pro-
ducer.

An editor in a nearby town got In
to dickens OF q scrap few days
ago. He is possessed OF the idea that
one of his legs is gradually becoming
petrified. To test its condition he
pinches it at frequent intervals. At
q recent dinner party he made the
usual test, and became very excited
when he felt no sensation from a
most vigorous pinch. 1T has come

then the lady sitting beside him

is not one OF the permitted purposes.
However. IL is not true that the law
makes no provision for the payment
OF the election officers. II does make
such provision. Section "a says:
AT each and every primary held for
the nomination OF candidate for
United States senator the election
shall be conducted by the duly APP
pointed and constituted election Off
GERS OF the several polling places and
voting precincts throughout the state
who shall be paid as provided by law
for holding elections in other cases.
This means the election officers ap
pointed by the commissioners courts
the same men who will hold the cleo
ton in November. and It means that
these men shall be paid out q the
county treasures.
This being true. It seems that the
senatorial primary election law will
fail for the reason that the presiden
tial primary law failed, and that thu
nomination of candidate for United
States senator automatically will fal

died. nobody seems to understand II
and q recent decision by the state SUI
preme court, leaves the matter in
about as much doubt as ever. The fol.
lowing from the Dallas Democrat is
somewhat calculating and Is given
publication for the benefit OF the
readers OF the Eagle:
II seems that some persons at Aus
tin feel that the senatorial primary
election bill is not affected by reason
OF the fact that the supreme court Of
Texas has held the presidential pri
mary law unconstitutional because
public money cannot be used to pa!
primary election officers. These per
sons believe that the first senatorial
primary will be part OF the Demo
cratic general primary and that th'
expenses will be paid by the party on
OF funds contributed by candidates
They further say that the law doe
not provide for payment OF the secon'
senatorial primary. but they conclud
that the candidates may bear the eN
pense.
All of these conclusions are falsel
based. The first senatorial primar
is required to be held on the same do
as the general primary Of the DemC
cratic party. But there can be no col
nectlon between the two. All partie
are TO participate In the senatorial pr
mary and each is to have its own ba
lot. Furthey. each senator candidai
is limited to expenditures OF $4,000
the first campaign and $1,000 In III
second. The candidate could not bea
the election expenses within these lin
its. Moreover. the purposes for whic
they may expend money are limited

WOMAN SHOOTS MAN IN COURT
SCENE OVER DIVORCE CASE
Jacob Klaus, brother of Aid. Frank
Klaus, was shot down in Judge
FoelPs courtroom, County building,
as he was about to take the stand to
testify in the divorce suit of Jas. Ma
rex against his wife, Mrs. Katrina
Marek.
Mrs. Marek aimed a revolver at
Klaus and fired deliberately, missing.
She fired again and missed. The third
time she hit Klaus, the bullet lodging
in the small of his back.
Klaus was a bOarder at the Marek
home, 4801 Ada st. Marek testified
earlier in the trial that he, on July 2,
told his wife he was going fishing all
day. Instead he walked around the
block and climbed in the bathroom
window. He said he saw his wife I'M
dress and go into Klaus room, where
he caught her in a compromising po-
sition and kicked her out of the
house.
Marek has sued Klaus for $4,000,
charging alienation of his wife's af-
fections. It is believed Mrs. Marek
thought Klaus would testify against
her on the stand.
Mrs. Marek carried a baby in her
arms as she shot. It was the child
of a neighbor. a8a
At Iroquois hospital it was said this
afternoon that Klaus will probably
die.
