The crop report of the statistician of
the department of agriculture for 1894,
issued Jan. 10th of this year, shows that
South Dakota, although appealing to the
country for aid, raised enough to more
than eupply its own people. Of corn,
the product was 1,490,345 bushels and of
wheat 15,934,255 bushels.
Dr. Brosius and Constable Olinger of
Hood River came up on the local this
afternoon, bringing with them W. D.
Rogers, a young man of that place, who
is insane. He was examined as soon as
he arrived by Judge Blakeley and Dr.
Brosius, and will be sent to the asylum
tomorrow. His hallucination is that his
relatives want to injure him and he has
a suicidal tendency.
' Testimony is being taken at the office
of Huntington & Wilson before referee
J. M. Huntington, in the case of Peter
Gotfrey against W. S. Myers and T. J.
Driver as sheriff. The suit is brought to
enjoin the enforcement of a judgment in
the case of Myers against Gotfrey. The
contention is that the date in the copy of
the summons served on Gotfrey was
different from that in the original sum
mons. As the copy in dispute is lost
there are a number of affidavits filed to
prove what it contained.
The crop report for the year 1894,
issued by the department of agriculture
a few days ago, gives the following
as the values ot the year's crop:
Com, $544,719,162; wheat, $225,902.25;
oats, $214,816,920; barley, $27,134,127;
rye, $13,394,476; buckwheat, $7,040,238;
potatoes, $91,526,787; hay, 468,578,321;
tobacco, 27,760,739. One would hardly
think that the oat crop of the United
States .was nearly as valuable as the
wheat crop, or that the bay was double
the-value of either, yet such is the case'

Snow, and Old Recollections.
In the winter of 1851-52, the writer
hereof, with three other young men,
were prospecting in California, and
finally brought up at Mississippi Bar,
North Y uba, where we located a river
claim of 1200 feet of river bed. We
built a log cabin and sent one of our
party, Gideon Brooks, to Marysville, 57
miles distant, for a year's supplies, while
the other three finished the cabin and
opened bar diggings. Mr. Brooks, who
went after the provisions, got snow
bound, and so were we, as there fell
about nine feet of snow on the level, and
as we knew nothing about snow-shoes,
we waited for a thaw. In the mean
while we lived on beans straight, as
that was all we bad. No salt, no sugar,
no flour, no tobacco, "no nothing" but
beans, on "which we lived for twenty
eight days, by which time the snow and
everything else but the everlasting taste
of beans had lost their terrors, and we
determined to get out, as death was
preferable by any other route than the
bean line. So we started. We waded,
rolled and traveled in the creek beds
until we got three miles, late at night,
to Hampshire mill, where we were met
with the cheerful information that they
bad nothing to eat but beais. As we
were not anguishing for that kind of
diet, we followed their advice to keep
on, which we did to Pine Grove, about
two miles further, where we arrived at
about midnight, weary, wet and hungry
for anything bat beans. The landlady
kindly got oat of bed and went to work
getting us one of the finest suppers it
was ever my good fortune to surround
There were bacon, hot biscuits and
coffee, to which you may be sure we did
ample justice.
Next morning, finding we could buy
supplies, we Btocked up. For flour we
'paid $1 per pound, bacon $1.25, coffee
$2, tobacco $2, powder $3 for one pound
can, lead 75 cent per pound, and gun
caps $3 per hundred. After making our
packs of 75 pounds per man, we started
down the mountain, and arrived at oar
cabin at about 6 p. m, pretty well tired
lou
but in good spirts. One of the boys
remarked: "Wait until Bpring and
we'll take out the dust," which we did
to the amount of $3,000 each.
