WOMAN PASSES

Years of Age When Death
Calls Her.

Mrs. Henry Mcclellan, IS, passed

ter, who died in 1888.
Arthur and family of Brook Park,
Ralph and wife of Minneapolis, Har-
old and family Of Arlington, Calf,
and w. E. Ring, a son-in-law of
Bowdle, S. D., with their father, are
left to mourn her. Also twelve grand
children and nine great-grandchildr

Charter Member of Church.
Mrs. Mcclellan and husband were

The beautiful floral offerings attest
ed to the esteem in which she was
held.
A precious one from us has gone
A voice we loved is stilled.
A place is vacant in our midst
Which never can be filled.
God in his wisdom has recalled
The boon her love had given
And though the body slumbers here
Her soul is safe in heaven.

LIGHT RECEIPTS
RAISE HOG PRICE
Price is Double Last Years; Upward
Trend VIII Depend on Con.
Sumer Demand.

Generally reduced supplies of hogs
have served as a tonic to all hog mar
kets of the country and sharp price
upturns have been registered through
out the country, says the weekly
bulletin issued by the Central Cos
operative Association, farmer owned
livestock selling agency at South St.
Paul.
At South St. Paul, hog prices have
advanced virtually $1O0 since the
middle of December, and other large
marekts have shared in the upturn.
Abbreviated market supplies resulting
from severe weather, are responsible
for much of the recent strength. How
far upward continued light receipts
will carry hog prices will be deter
mined largely by the buying activity
on the part of consumers. A year ago
hog markets were sagging near the
$500 mark. Now they are near the
$500 mark.
Light hog runs are expected for a
good many months according to the
number of sows estimated to farrow
this spring. Based upon returns from
the government June pig survey made
in cooperation with the rural mail
carriers, there is a prospective de-
crease Of II per cent in the number
of sows to farrow in the spring of
1885, This decrease follows the sharp
reduction in 1884, and presages the
smallest market Supplies of hogs for
1885 in many years.
The pig crop for the fall of 1894
was 48 per cent smaller than a year
ago, and the total spring and fall
crops of 1894 were 35 per cent below
the combined spring and fall crops of
1888.
Receipts at all markets already
show a big shrinkage from a year ago.
Total hog receipts at twenty of the
leading hog markets of the country
for the year 1884 is approxima tely
25,3O0,OOO head, or a decrease of 20
per cent from the 1888 total at the
same markets.

GIVE SNOW PLOWS
RIGHT OF WAY ON
ROAD, is WARNING

Don't dispute the right of way with
state highway department in an appeal
to motorists to exercise unusual eau
ton when meeting plows at work
on the trunk highways.
DRIVERS will save themselves much
Inconvenience and some danger if
they will make it a habit to slow
down or stop when they meet a pillow"
says a department bulletin. They
should pull as far to the side of the
road as possible and give the snow
pillow the right of way.
I'm order to throw snow from the
highways and keep them open for
public use, it is necessary for the
big V pillows to travel % to 80 miles
an hour and maintain a steady pace
They cannot dodge, jump or stop for
every approaching car If they are to
do an effective job.
Many pleasure car drivers will ap-
proach a pillow without slackening
speed, expecting the pillow to get out
of their way. When it does not they
try to turn out at the last moment,
but are going so fast they run into
the ditch. If these drivers would
slow down and turn out for the pillow,
they would seldom have any difficulty.
Snow plows carry brilliant blue lights
for night warnings"

the depot to the postoffice.
His wife passed away about IS years
ago, but he is survived by a son and
daughter living at Kenosha, Wis.
During the past few years he had
been keeping house with his brother,
N. P. Johnson, who has been a resi-
dent of Pine county for the past As
years. Together they had comfort
able home and were happy in their
association together.
About three weeks ago the deceased
complained of feeling i'll and his
brother carried the mail for him.
Mr.. johnson had many friends and
was known to all to be efficient and
kind hearted. His brother and chill
dren are grief stricken and have the
sympathy of the entire community

FARM HOLIDAY NEWS
BY H. SANDELL, Secretary.

Pine County Farmers Holiday Asso-
citation is calling on all farmers and
all farm organizations in the county
for general mass meeting to be held
at Hinckley Legion hall on Friday,
January II, at O'Clock sharp, for the
purpose of drawing up joint pro-
gram, on certain resolutions already
adopted by some organizations and by
putting up new demands under pres
ent conditions confronting us this
winter, and to present this jointly to
state and national legislation.
1t is not question of theory at this
time but question of present condi-
tions as to whether we are going to
be able to pull through the winter
without too much suffering to live
stock and human beings. This can
be prevented and let's get together
and find out what we can do about it
and remember if you want some one
to do something for you. you must
show little bit of cooperation and
solidarity on your own behalf. Be
sure to attend.
