The big rairoad corporations, will
have to pay their taxes just like all
of us common mortals. So decided
the IT. S. supreme court on Monday
of this week, which with the interest
and penalties attached amounts to
over three million dollars. It is not
thought the rairoads will make any
further tight along tax dodging lines.
The records of the federal court show
that of the above amount there is
due Sherman county from the B. &
M. $12,(583.90, and from the Union
Pacific $7,728.43, a total of $20,412.38,
with interest.
A Big Poland China Hog Sale
H. J. Johansen’s big pure-bred Po
land China hog sale came off Thurs
day last as per schedule, and the in
terst manifest in advance brought a
large crowd of sightseers as well as
buyers, and the prices were most sat
isfactory. taking into consideration
this was the first big sale of pure
blood, registered stuff of the kind
ever held in this county. Mr. Johan
sen is to be congratulated on the
nerve, pluck, energy, enterprise and
stay-with-it qualities he liasdisplayed
in the past few years, which has en
abled him to furnish the large bunch
of as good, pure bred and registered
Poland China hogs as lias been offered
to the public in this state tlie past
year, which, had they been offered in
a section of the country where these
sales were common, would, as averred
by Col. Branson, the noted auc
tioneer employed, easily have brought
four times the price received. How
ever, as it is, Mr. Johansen is highly
pleassd over the results, which bro't
him in nearly $1400 for the thirty-five
hogs sold, and with the 20 horses and
20 head of cattle also sold, bring

$3100 and a fraction. Following is a

Henry Miler shipped a car of goods

Elmer Walker will move Kansas

About forty families paid A. Mead
a farewell visit last Tuesday.
Rev. Spahr had a public sale Mon
day and will quit farming for a while
and devote his time to the ministry.
Rev. McEwen, E. G. Taylor and
Dr. Long returned from Omaha last
week giving a most glowing report of
the big Presbyterian assembly there.
Farmers' Institute.
The Farmers' Institute was called
to order in the court house at 2 p. m.
by Pres. H. B. Milsser. In a brief
address Mr. Musser spoke of the im
provement in our methods of hand
ling our stock and farm land, also of
the benefits to be derived from as
sociating ourselves together and com
paring and improving our methods,
then introduced Mr. W. I). McKee,
wrho spoke on “The Feeder Type of
Beef Steer.” This was a most in
teresting address and Mr. McKee
demonstrated that he was master of
his subject, emphasizing the value of
good breeding in the steer, fie said
we have the best climate in the world
for the breeding and feeding of cattle
and with proper care no one can help
being well repaid by the beef steer.
This was followed by a most interest
ing paper “Profit in Feeding the I log
on Our Farms." by Hon. E. H. Kittell.
Mr. Kittell is a practical hog man and
described his methods of handling his
herd in a clear and concise way. Ex
Gov. Poynter was then introduced
and spoke on “The Value of the Dairy
Cow on the Farm.” Mr. Poynter sur
prised some of us by showing that
the value of the dairy product in the
D. S. was more than the value of all
the fat cattle and hogs put together.
Mr. Poynter has been in the dairy
business for many years and under
stands the care of both cow and milk.
In the evening Mr. McKee spoke on
“Literature for the Farmer.” lie
said the farmers’ literature should
cost him nothing, as the government
at the Experiment Station at Wash
ington issues bulletins on every sub
ject of interest to the farmer and
breeder. These bulletins come from
the highest authority and are free
for the asking. Gov! Pointer also
spoke of “Leaks on the Farm.” He
says we are too apt to neglect the
little things. For want of a nail a
whole board is lost. In many other
ways we allow much of the profit of
the farm to be wasted. This was fol
lowed by a general hog discussion,
which closed the session.
The 20th proved a stormy day and
no morning session was held, and on
account of a lawsuit, with a house
full of witnesses, the Institute was
adjourned to Society Hall where the
first speaker, C. G. Marshall spoke on
“Soil Tillage and Retention of Mois
ture.” With proper care, Mr. Mar
shall says, the value of our moisture
can be more than doubled and our
crops made to show a much larger
profit. Mr. Chase of Pawnee City
spoke of “The Selection and Care of
Seed Corn,” and said every ear should
be tested, especially this year, as corn
is not well ripened and we can not
afford to be careless with our seed.
A most valuable paper from the able
hand of Mrs. A. II. Hansel on “Feed
ing the Hen for Production of Winter
Eggs." was read. Briefly. Mrs. Hansel
described her methods of caring for
her fowls and savs the products of
the faithful “Biddie” amount annual
ly to more than Gov. Poynter claims
for the dairy cow. The interest in
these institutes is growing, twenty
one names being added to our roster,
and all expressed themselves well
pleased. We look for a larger and
better institute next year. The same
officers were re-elected for next year,
as follows: H. B. Musser, President:
J. A. Prav, R. I). Hendrickson. E. II.
Kittell. O. L. Way and Joe Daddow.
Vice-Presidents, and L. X. Smith.
Secretary and Treasurer.
