Improvements all the time. He has beer
taking pointers from the government
experts at Huron and Aberdeen lately
These experts are running xperimental
stations to ascertain something OF what
may be done in this climate and soil til
practical irrigation. They are among
the best posted men in their line in the
country, and the results OF their efforts
will be watched with great interest. Mr..
Richards says his experience last year
was enough to satisfy him that artesian
1rriga ton is q big success, but that being
green at the business and absolutely
without any experience in irrigation, he
expects in time to reach the immense
values that are found i'll the irrigated
fields in Colorado and California He
rldicules the idea that with an increase
OF the number of wells, there will be a
diminution OF their present Individual
capacity. Hecharges decrease in flow or
power OF any well now running to local
causes, such as detective walls, impendi-
ments, etc. Ithas been ascertained that
at Great Falls, Mont, the Missouri river
is more than half lostunderground. This
is doubtless one of the scources OF supply
Of this artesian basin. Lately it has
been discovered off the coast OF Florida
where. there is an. outlet to the great ar
sttesian baison 81 Che country inef frcgh
water bubbles up IN gfeat quantities and
assists in starting the gulf stream.
The contract for surveying the bound-
ary line between North and South Dak-
Sota has been let to Charles Bates OF
Yankton, for $21 300. This is to be
quite,an elaborate affair, and tits doubt
ful if there is another such boundary line
in the United States. The specifications
provide that monuments seven feet long,
to be OF Dakota stone, five feet Of which
are to be placed in the ground, shall be
stationed every half mile. 1t won't take
the deniZens Of the twin states long to
know whether they are at home or not.
The reason for this elaborate boundary
survey is that there have already been
two surveys made, which do not agree.
It is Understood that stone from the
Jasper quarries at Sioux Falls is to be
used. d.-WOrld-Herald

Pierre, S. D., May 24.-To give some
idea Of the practical experimenting that
is now going on in this state in the way
OF irrigation by means Of artesian wells,
the case OF Dick Richards, whose place is
q few miles out Of Huron, may be men
toned. Mr.. Richards. is irrigating 400
acres of crops with the water from y six
inch vel, and says that the supply OF
water is ample even for more land this.
The crops are divided as follows: Two
hundred aeresof wheat, forty acres corn,
forty barley, forty oats. forty flax, fiji
teen potatoes and twenty-five OF vegetar
bles. So fareveryt thing is looking fine,
and Mr.. Richards estimates that he will
take on at least $1,000 worth OF crops
which will give him livery satisfactory
profit. The water is carried to the laAd
by bitches around the fields, which aver
ape about eighty acres and which are
flooded in some eaaes from all sides
The process fs not expensive, but Mr.
Richards says that for all this he is ys

In the recent decision rendered by
Chief Justice Fuller OF the Supreme Court
Prohibition has secured victory. The
case originated in the arrest OF an agent
OF a Kansas City firm located at Topeka.
1t was claimed that the original package
law OF Congress was unconstitutional,
but if constitutional it would not take
effect until prohibition had been re-enac-
ted in the state. The circuit court de-
cided against the state and appeal was
made to the supreme court Justice
Fuller declares the original pockage law
OF Congress constitutional and held that
it applied to states having prohibition
laws, enacted previous to its passage.
