BELLEVILLE MILLING CO. Mite SberifT Ward ruturned (Sunday night charge Homer Hicks, whom be cap- Oiir Citj Water Works. Ever since the town site of Belleville was laid out and work coiumebc- ed with a view to building here a city the cry has been made against the place tiiat there is no water to be had at Belleville. And uotwitbstandiuer it was sometimes hard work aud a little inconvenient to obtain water there has never been what you might call a water famine, and the city has gradually progressed until it uowcom- rises a little over two thousand in- abitauts and some of the finest residences and business houses to be found in any city of its in the State, and on top of this one of the best water works plants in use to-day anywhere. We refer more particularly to the I- in the Cheyenne and Arappaboe country.

Hicks is the young man who, while running horses and In passing Henry Morris and sister on their way home from Narka on the evening of Aug. 11th, ran into the vehicle of the latter parties and upset it, through which Mr. Morris and sister both received injuries from which they shortly afterwards died. An inquest was held over the body of the youi 'g man Morris, who died the morning after the unfortunate affajr occurred, and the jury returned a verdict that "the deceased bad met bis death through reckless driving at the hands of Homer Hicks." On the strength of this verdict a warrant was issued for the arrest of Hicks and placed in the hands of tbe sheriff, but Hicks immediately left tbe country and kept well in biding until located by Sheriff Ward a couple of weeks ago, wbo at once proceeded to procure the necessary papers to insure bis return and confinement In jail until the next term of the district court.

Tiie system already comprises about four miles of mains, with forty hydrants for fire protection and two public watering places, and an order is now out for material lor the laying of 1500 additional feet and the putting in of four more hydrants, so that about reach of fire protection when this work is completed. The water works building is a substantial brick structure, with storage reservoir near by, and from this reservoir the water is pumped into an elevated reservoir from which the pressure is had, aud in case of fire, iflbis pressure is not sufficient, direct pressure from the powerful engines used can be applied. The quantity of water now pumped daily is about 40,000 gallons, and it is of the very best quality, being obtained from 180 feet below the surface of the ground, and in a quicksaud rock. The supply of water seems iuexhaustltile, when the pumps entire day, has there irer been less than 25 feet of water in the well, which is ten feet in diameter and from which ou either side are tunnels six feet square and extending several yards formiug a supply storage.

The management of the machinery of the plant is in charge of R. Wilbert, whose pains and skill are at ouce apparent as j'ou look through the building where you find everything as neat, clean aud tidy as could be wished for. Four monster pumps are used, two for taking the water from the well and placing It into the storage reservoir aud two for forcing it to the elevated reservoir, the latter also being used for direct pressure in case of fire.

A. BUOCK. P. The Value of Cutting Fodder i Before Feeding. From Tha Prarie Farmer.

The great value of well-cured corn stalks from which the ears have been husked, for feeding purposes, has not been recognized by amajority of farmers. The main reason for this is that the stalks are bulky, and, until the advent of cutting machinery, have been difficult to handle. Also, farmers not understanding to feed stalks to tbe best advantage have found that there was a large amount of waste. In ex- eriments at the Wisconsin Station it as been shown that something like 30 per cent of tbe corn stalks can be saved by cutting them, so that the entire stock will be eaten. In riper corn, when fed together with whatever nubbins, there was only a waste of 9 per cent with the uncut fodder.

With corn stalks valued at $4 per ton, it was demonstrated that they are worth about $5.20 when cut, aud it will be seen that the advance in value will quickly pay for a good-sized cutting machine. In tbe winter season farmers, as a rule, have but little to do with their horses, and these can then be utilized in tbe cutting of In other experiments it was found that by putting the fodder through a cutter, 36 per cent was saved in the first trial, and 31 per cent the second.

Wo are in need of money, and expect those who are in arrears, and able to do so, to pay us at ouce. We are perfectly willing to carry, all those who, like ourself, are unable to meet all demands made upon them at the present time and until things change for the better, but there are many who owe us from $1.50 to $5.00 and $6.00 that can pay us just as well we want them to do so. To these latter we say in all kindnees, gentlemen, come in and pay up, or send us a money order; if you can't pay all, pay part, for we are in need of tbe money. We, the Undersigned. Wish to acquaint the public with tbe fact that Teutonic positively cures rheumatism, kidney aud all blood the difference in the ue to the variety of corn used.

In trial one the uneaten fodder was 14 per cent of the total fed, while the gain by cutting was 36 per cent. In trial No. 2 the. uneaten stalks were 30 per cent of the total fed, while the gain by cutting waisSlper cent. The fodder crop, when turned into butter, gave these results: The average of four trials showed that it required 2,450 pounds of corn fodder, cut fine, together with 750 pounds of brau and 450 pou nds of corn meal to make 100 pounds of butter.

acre of fodder corn will yield about 12,.500 pounds, Hence we find we will have ienough fodder ou au acre of land for about 500 pounds of butter. To go with this fodder in producing this 500 pounds of butter, we would need 3,750 pounds of bran and 2.250 pounds of corn meal. Now let our readers take the cost of brau aud corn meal at thvir respective points, and adding this cost to the fodder fed, they can easily deterniiue the value of the fodder. "Corn Stalks Compared with Mixed Hay and Clover lor Producing Milk aud Butter," was the subject of another experiment conducted by Prof. W.

A. Henry. The experiment was for the purpose of ascertaining. First, the relative value of corn fodder and mixed hay for producing milk and butter. Second, the relative value of fodder and clover hay for producing milk and butter.

The corn fodder used was cut early, and well cured in the bound inlfS bundles after the well- were husked. The mixed hay was about one third clover and two-thirds timothy. It was found that it required, for each 100 pounds of milk when feeding corn stalks, 193 pounds of corn stalks, 25 pounds of corn meal and 33 pounds of wheat the food required for 100 pounds of butter, when feeding corn stalks, was 3,880 pounds of corn stalks, 514 pounds of corn meal and 719 pounds of wheat brau. The food required for 100 pounds of milk, when feeding mixed bay, was 71 pounds of mixed hay, pounds of corn meal and 36 pounds of wheat bran. From the data here given, one can easily calculate the cost of food necessary to produce 100 pounds of Real Estate Transfers.
