HEAVY BUSINESS
SOUTH DAKOTA HIGHWAY CON-
MISSION REPORTS ON NUM-
RER OF AUTOS CARRIED
BY THEM.

Pierre, Jan. 17.-According to q
report received by the state highway
commission there were 42,264 auto
mobiles crossed the Missouri river on
ferries during the year 1921.
People of the state will be interest
ed in knowing where all the ferries
in the state are located and the fol-
lowing will give them the name of 1t
boat and it's place of crossing togeth-
er with the number of automobiles 1t
hauled during the year 1921:
At Chamberlain there are two
boats, the j. I. c., which carried 1880
cars, and the j. w Sanford which
carried 200.
Running Water has two boats, the
Falls City, which carried sos and
the Little Pearl which carried 1872.
Mobridge with one boat, the Eve
lyn, carried more automobiles than
any other in the state. That boat
transported 1852 during the past
year. This was due to the large tour
list travel over the Yellow Stone
trail.
At Pollock the ferry, Y. O., car
ried $50. In this case the number
Is estimated.
Forest City has one boat. the
Cheyenne. which carried 2.662 auto
mobiles.

Barn and IL
Horses Burned

Pipestone, Mimi, Jan. 17.-Fire
caused by an overturned lantern in
the big barn on the Hugh Corrigan
farm six miles west of Pipestone re-
suited in the destruction of the barn
and the death of 11--valuable farm
horses. The horses belonged to far
mers who had been engaged in gath
ering the big crop of corn on the Cor
rigan place.
Soon after the fire broke out two
of the horses made a break from
their stalls and met in the doorway
of the barn in such a manner as to
become caught there, blocking the
door so that the other nine horses
in the barn were unable to leave the
burning building.

GIRLS FEAR LOSS
OF THEIR POSITIONS
AGED CHICAGO MIDWIFE TELLS
OF EXPERIENCE WITH HUN
DREDs o FABORTIoN CASES.

Chicago, Jan. IA majority of
the girls and women who came under
my observation as soliciting abortion
are those of limited means, members
of the working class. They do not
fear the social ostracism as much as
they fear the loss of their positions
their sources of revenue"
DR.. Lucy Hagenow, aged midwife,
through whose offices for the last 40
years sorrowing women have passed,
some to regain the bluebird if hap
piness, and others--so grand juries
have decided-to find death, made
this statement last night. Her testi-
mony should be authentic. She has
handled hundreds of cases and has
served time in Joliet penitentiary for
abortion. She has been indicted
many times on this. charge. She is
rs years old. and is at present out on
bond. awaiting trial on the charge of
having performed an illegal opera
tion upon Mrs. Fred Albrecht An
other alleged victim, Mrs. Frances
O'Reilly, lying at the point of death.
is said to have signed an accusing
statement against Mrs. Hagenow. The
aged midwife denies her guilt in both
cases and asserts she never performed
an illegal operation in her life.
Most of my cases are women un-
der 80, many of them much younger.
None of them is ignorant. Even the
little girls of today know every rem
edy and have tried them all before
they come to me. Generally they
have taken large quantities of pow
erful drugs or tried to operate upon
themselves. Blood poison results and
the midwife to whom they go for re-
lief after 1t is too late gets the
blame.
"The only remedy for this alarm
ingly increasing evil is to legitimatize
every child and by providing retreats
where the unwed mothers can give
birth to their babies without econo-
mic toss to themselves or those de-
pendent upon them. There should al
so be campaign of education, inn
pressing upon girls the vital neces-
sity of consulting reputable physi-
clans and showing them the extreme
dangers of home remedies. Ii society
knew no such thing as the illegiti-
mate child, much of the danger would
be removed. I have seen so many pi-
tiful cases, girls and women to whom
the birth of the unwelcome child
means everything-loss of position
caste, the facing of starvation, becom-
ing social outcast. l do what
can for them, in legitimate way, but
frequently they are past all medical
aid. Up to their very last breath
most of them will maintain the fic,
tion that they are married and will
conceal their real names and ad'
dresses. Many make no explanation
whatever. They want medical aid In
hurry and I give it to them"
