But One Paper in Manson.

Jack Dalton, known to a good many
Webster City people, has sold his Mah-
son Democrat to r. ID. Long, of the
Manson Journal, and both papers Will
hereafter be published as the Manson
Journal. In these days of the hlsh
cost of everything that goes into the
making of a newspaper, town the
size of Manson cannot even support
two wecklies. One will fill the Dill
nicely and the merchants will be en-
ablcd to reach their trade through the
medium of one paper. instead OF two.
Jack Dalton had published the
Democrat for 2S years. He will retain
his calendar and job plant, which he
will operate as before.
While prices are going down IN
good many lines, they are still on the
up grade on everything that goes into
the makeup of a newspaper, which fact
has forced many suspensions and con-
during the past few years.

paper:
1t was with deep regret that we
learned last week of the death OF
c. II. Haeger, business manager of The
Daily Freeman ournal, Webster City,
which occurred after weeks illness
with pneumonia.
Carl was well known and liked
by all in the newspaper fraternity

and finest men III the profession, al
ways working and sacrificing FOR
the best Of his town and for the
interests of the newspaper business.
which he put on high standard
while: connected with the Journal and
Daily PREGNANT Journal. He was al
ways considerable of his force ana
friends and always proved himself to
be Il ready and willing friend. During
our two years with him, we grew to
admire and love him and know that
with his passing we have lost friend
indeed, and it is with Il dull ache III
our hearts and a vacancy in the same
that the editor and family realize that
our friend is no more for this earth.
May he rest in peace.

Farming in South Dakota.

Mrs. ]. G. Madison, of Mitchell.
South Dakota, formerly Of this city,
in the course of letter to the Free
an-Journal, renewing the yearly sub
scription, writes as follows:
A few farmers here are through
husking, some. nearly SO, others with
quite bit to husk yet, according to
their acreage and help. A number have
husking machines. We have fifty
acres to husk yet, but if the weather
stays fine, it will not last long with a
machine and two men. Most farmers
here are planning to hold their corn
banks are cooperating with them.
, Farming conditions are, Of course,
much the same here as in Hamilton
county-corn and oats being the chief
crops and many men raise pedigreed
hogs. The farms here are somewhat
larger and the season about week
later. We, too, went through the land
boom, $500 an acre being the record
price here for land outside the city
limits, and now the consequent reaction
with no land changing hands.
Mr.. and Mrs. Jonas johnson, Old
Hamilton county residents, live east
of Mitchell, over in Hanson county.
My brother, Miles Pooley, is now
with the Mitchell Daily Republican, SO
LIE enjoys the ''Freeman-J ournar' with
us.
We were. sorry to learn of Carl
Haeger's death-a loss not only to the
family and the Freeman-JOurnal-but
to many friends. So many familiar
faces are missing in Webster City since
we moved here. among the older gen
Grafton and the younger also.
South Dakota has been kind to us
financially and we have made friends
here, but are always glad to get news
from the old home, and if chance brings
any Webster City friends to Mitchell.
we will be glad to see them.
