PATENTS FARM lMPLE
MENT IN DAKOTA

According to the Bowman IN. d.
Pioneer, r. T. Cammack of Canmack,
S. D., little place about thirty miles
from Bowman, has invented a ma
chine that will mean much to the Da-
kotas and all countries where there
is hardpan near the surface. One
of the drawbacks of the Dakota farm
ing is the hardpan near the soil which
holds the water so that the land is
too wet at times, but this machine,
which acts somethink like a ground
mole and roots up the ground, nearly
doubles the depth of blowing. The
machine is considered great by the
farmers who have been giving it a
trial, and it is believed that this will
add much to the wealth of counties
afflicted with hardpan.
Mr.. Cammack is brother of Mrs.
G. F. Post of Baraboo. and at one
time resided in Spring Green, Mazo-
mamie being his birthplace and boy
hood home.

very precious commodity, and to In

salt was given them. The pay was

By in Editor

A Kansas editor, o. W. Weaver. OF
the Sedgwick Paragraph, recently
raised the price of his weekly papee
from 81 to $3.50 year, and in replying
to some complaint heard about the
change, says: "You may be Of the
opinion that the paper isn't worth
$3.50. Neither is a gallon of gasoline
worth 81 cents, nor ten pounds OF
sugar worth 81, nor a pound Of veal
worth 80 cents, nor bushel Of corn
worth 80 cents, but these are the
prices the people are paying. Potas
toes are retailed at So per bushel,
and sow bosom as % cents a pound.
So don't get mad at us. Goodness
knows, we didn't start that fuss. I'm

THAT INCONSISTENCY

Recently the city council decided
the limit Of speed Of automobiles over
Che Oak street bridge should be ten
miles an hour, the police to enforce
the measure. After an officer makes
an arrest along comes a member OF
the police commission to defend the
alleged offender. BY what process
are the members Of the police com.
mission created? The mayor appoints
and the aldermen affirm. Who ever
heard of the president of the United
States or the governor Of a state max.
ing an appointment and then being
opposed by the one appointed in car

port from certain members of the
commission? Whom are they to serve
the commission or the council? It
certainly is a fine state of affairs
If the ordinance is not to be enforced
repeal it. Can the police serve two
masters? There is thought of taking
the case to a higher court at the ex
pense of the taxpayers. If taken to

CARDIFF GIANT
WAS GREAT HOAX

Several writer's in the Ollapodrida
column of this paper have referred,
one way or another. to the Cardiff
slant. Those Of the older generation
we'll remember the laugh the hoax
produced In 1868 and SO, and posi-
bly, some of the younger folks do not
know there ever was such q success
full humbug. In brief, the giant was
made in Chicago, buried on farm in
New York and while excavating for
a we'll was discovered. The fraud was
exhibited and considerable money
made before The gypsum giant was
labeled what il really was. The whole
story may be found In the Sank
County History, page SAT, published
in 1880, or in the Century Magazine,
Vol. LXIV. No 6, Year 1902, page
948. One Of the actors Of the hoax
was George Hull, who once resided
at $40 East street, Baraboo, where
Mrs. Louise Fisher resides. Mr.. Hull
came to Baraboo in 1857 for a short
time conducted cigar store, and the
author Of the Sank County History
labels him as being as poor as q
church mouse. In 1880 Hull was liv.
ing at Binghamton, N. Y, engaged
in raising tobacco. The whole story
is worth reading, either In the Sank
County History or The Century.

The Cardiff Giant is not a Shadows
Shadow to This

It is reported on as good authority
as that Of Tom Lawson Of Boston or
Hugh Kelley of Baraboo, that wha"
the Crescent College buildings were
erected here at the top of the noun
tain. it was deemed necessary to cut
a hole in the sky to accommodate the
smoke stacks of the heating plant.
The cutting Of this hole and conse-
quent effects, caused great commo-
ton among the heavenly angels; the
hole being situated on one of the
principal golden streets, and when
the college boilers were fired with
Arkansas soft coal slack, there was
sucn a smudge created that the heav-
emily choir was very nearly asphyxi-
ated, the pearly gates blackened, and
hob raised in general.
Another thing: Some smart Alecs
from Joplin, Mo-, sneaked into heaven
by shining up the smoke stacks, in
stead Of entering the pearly gates in

these intruders was only discovered
when they were caught tearing up
chunks of the golden pavement of
the street, which they were tossing
to earth through the smoke stack
opening. The stacks were then short
