Actually this new coal end wood range appears as if it
wereworthlO.OOOl Forwere it made of solid gold, you
could scarcely detect the difference. Not only docs the
new metal -heavy, thick "copperoid"-which composes its
outer walls and high closet, resemble gold in color, it re
tains this golden appearance despjtc heat; ic cleans easily,
does not chip, crack or break, and defies rust. So the
range is as everlasting as it is beautiful to behold. Come,

The Foote Motor Company have u
Ford Agency at 9th and Dakota Ave
nues, South Sioux City, Nebraska.
They repair Ford Cars and carry a
full line of parts, and cats and trac
tors. This is in line with the well
known Ford policy of service every
where. Miss Margaret Schriever went to
Iowa City, Ia Wednesday of last

is somp question as to whether the
man was killed by being run over by
n freight train When found imme
diately after being run over the body
was seemingly cold, and little if any
blood was found where the accident
was supposed to have occurred.
Lorenzo Whitchorn, a former resi

Portland, Ore. Mr. Whitchorn was a

The department of agriculture es
timates that nearly 7,000,000 domes
tic animals were lost from disease or
exposure on the farms of the United
States for the yea." ending with April
1921. Their value was nbout
$150,000,000. These losses comprise
about 309,000 horses and mules,
585,000 lambs, 1,223,000 mature sheep,
1,743,000 cattle, and 2,910,000 hogs.
While these numbers are large, a
mild winter was favorable to low
mortality. Animal losses fdom dis
eases are declining as the various
public agencies, veterinarians, and
farmers better understand how to
combat them.
A number of cases of fever among
children have been reported from
nearby towns, and the cause is gen
erally attributed to the children
swimming in Crystal lake while the
parties were in camp there. This
may be right tn some cases, as the
camping parties allow their children
to lay about in the shallow, luke
warm water of the beaches for hours
at a time, and all times of the day,
which Is surely enough to bring on
sickness, even to an able-bodied per
son. m Bathing, like eating, or any
thing else, should be done with some
system of regularity, and no harm
will then come from it.
The J. H. Blackburn home was
raided Saturday night by Sheriff
Geo. Cain and deputies, and a poker
game was found running in full
blast. Blackburn was arrested on a
charge of operating a gambling re
sort, and seven other men and boys
were arrested fo- frequenting the
place and gambling. Blackburn was
taken before Judge Graves at Pen
der Tuesday where he entered a plua
of guilty, and was fined $100 and
costs and was given a jail sentence
of twenty d.tyr the last ten of which
his diet was to be broad and water.
The other parties in the raid tender
ed a fine of $5 each to Judge McKin
ley and were discharged without trial.
Value of Purehreils Conspicuous
The value of purebred live stock,
say specialists of the United States
Department of Agricultuie, is most
noticeable in those cases in which
the capability of the nnjninls is meas
ured most directly. Among farm
animals the best illustration can lie
found in dairy cattle, though careful
yearly tests of milk and butter fat
production are relatively recent af
fairs. The enormous differences
among dairy cows when gi.cr the
same opportunity have been brought
out clearly in a great number of
cases, and these differences are
strongly inherited through both the
sire and dam. The average produc
tion for purebreds and grades is much
above the average of all milch cows,
which is about 4,000 pounds of mik
and 1G0 pounds of butterfat.
