fight EXPRESS RATES
SIOUX FALLS INTERESTS EN-
GAGE LAW FIRM TO LOOK
AFTER MATTERS.

Sioux Falls, Aug. Sioux Falls
is not going TO submit without q
struggle to the recent decision of the
Interstate commerce commission, ia
which il virtually authorized express
companies TO rails their rates be
tween Sioux Falls, Mitchell, Huron,
WATERFOWL and Aberdeen and the
towns in this state which Sioux city
jobbers consider within their field,
TO the level of the interstate rates,
thereby practically doubling the
rates for shippers in the cities and
towns affected.
The law firm of Gamble. Wagner
4 Danforth, of this city, has been
engaged and in conjunction with the
state board of railroad commission
ers will look after the interests OF
this state at this time when the loss
of its present rates are threatened.
Just what plan of procedure Is con
templated or will be adopted is not
announced. but il is believed that
there are points that are assailable.
In the recent conference held az
Pierre before the railroad commits
sioners, which was attended by rep
r~esentatives of the express companies
and the jobbing centers of the state,
the express companies proposed that
the proposed raise in rates be made
applicable to the entire state. The
representatives of the jobbing cen
ters refused to agree to this, and at
tention was called to the fact that al
though the express companies start
ed an action four years ago in an eff
fort to get the state rates raised,
they had never pushed the case and
had never shown that the rates in
force then and at this time were un-
fair.

HARVESTING FINISHED
Hanson County Reports II Satisfac-
tory Yield.

Alexandria, Aug. 3.-Haryesting
is practically finished in all parts of
Hanson county. and the work of
threshing froIs the shock Is under
way in several localities. Barley,
rye, and oats, as we'll as the earliest
sown wheat, is turning out rather
more than an average yield of a
splendid quality of grain, particular
ly oats, which in several instances
are reported as averaging fifty bush
els to the acre or better. Later sown
wheat was badly damaged by rust
and blight, caused by the extremely
hot and dry weather prevailing just
at the time the grain vas in the
dough stage, the extent of damage
varying from rs to rs per cent. The
long continued droughth-now fully
five weeks without rain-has un-
questionably damaged the corn crop
to some extent, but il is believed that
III copious rains would come within
the next few days the corn crop
would be greatly benefited, and
much sound and marketable corn
would mature.

WILD ANIMALS
State Game Department Building
Up Herds.

Pierre, Aug. 3.-The state game
department is continuing its work of
building up herds OF the native wild
animals of the state in the state for
est reserve near Custer for the pre-
servation of the species, and to add
to the at~tractiveness of this preserve.
They have established families of
deer, elk and buffalo in the reserve,
and will this rear locate a number
of young antelope, which were cap
tured this spring by ranchers IN the
northwest section of the state, and
are now engaged in the location of
some of the beaver colonies yet left
in the reserve. Within the next few
years this state timber reserve will
be made one of the attractive show
places of the northwest just through
the present effort of the state game
department to keep in existence rep
re~sentatives of the fast disappearing
wild animals of the northwest.

Yankton-A very beneficial rain
fell here Monday night. bringing
much needed moisture. The total
rainfall of the past few days is now

grain has been handicapped by the
rain, but many farmers are threshing
from the shock and new oats and
wheat are already coming to town.
Ravinia-David McCurdy, a farm
er of this territory, suffered a heavy
loss when sparks from a thresher
engine set fire to and destroyed
shocked wheat which represented the
product of sixty acres of his farm.
Scores of men turned out TO fight the
fire in an effort to save the grain.

Another large field of grain near
Ravinia also was burned.

GETTING READY FOR BUSINESS
Many Grain Companies Are Being
Incorporated.

Pierre, Aug. Though reports
of grain damage in the state may or
may not be correct. but evidently
there is an impression in many quar-
ters that there will be grain to han
die this fall. There were incorpo-
rated for the month of July sixteen
different organizations for buying
grain, which were scattered in all
sections. OF these four were eleya-
tor companies; five grain companies
of different class. and sever We're
equity, or farmers cooperative COM
panies, all of which handle grain.
These people are all evidently build
ing their business on what they know
of the local grain crop, and indicate
that they have a belief in the success
of the crop in the section they repre-
sent.

NEAR DEATH IN RUNAWAY


Sioux Falls, Aug. 5.-The break
ing OF a chain saved the life of r. c.
Miller. a farmer living near Ravinia,
when a team of horses ran away
while they were attached to a binder
which Miller was operating. He had
stopped to make minor repairs 10 the
machine when the horses became
frightened and started TO run. The
pull of the machine swung the team
into the standing grain and caused
them to circle. While striving TO
control the horses Miller received a
vicious kick in the side which
knocked him down. The sickle
guards caught his clothing and he
was dragged about twenty rods,
breaking his nose and badly cutting
his head, right arm and leg on the
sickle. He was about to be drawn
into the machine when a chain broke
and became tangled in the gearing,
bringing the team to a s~tandstill.
He was rushed to a hospital.
