His Occupation Gone.

Iroquols Chief, 4th inst: The occu-
patton OF the croaker is gone. Here
after let no man say that South Dako-
ia cannot raise as good crops as any
state in the Union. We are not sitting
around on the back seats this year; we
are occupying places Of honor on the
stage, The eyes of the world are
focused right on South Dakota. The
senior editor of the Chief took a trip
through Turner county last week in
the interests OF the n. 0. U. w. order
Of this state. We had seen the crop of
the state through car windows, but
the drive through Turner county was
an eye opener.
Senator Peterman drove us in his
carriage from Parker to Hurley last
Thursday morning--and what drive
it was! The morning was cool and the
weather faultless. Wherever the eye
wandered waved the sheen of the
gigantic corn and far and near the
rich fields of golden grain went down
before the sharp knives Of the harvest
ing machines. Between Parker and
Hurley the farmers were in the midst
Of harvest. A smile of contentment
played oyer the face of every farmer
we stopped and talked with, and over
hillside and through meadows thous
ands Of lazy cattle roamed that were
fairly rolling in fat.
From the bright little town Of
Hurley a friend drove us through the
now-famed Spring and Vermillion
valleys, towards Centreville. The beau
ty of a Spring Valley farm lies in its
water supply. Nearly every farmer
had flowing well. All the water
needed can be found at from twenty to
fifty feet below the surface. And such
crops! 1t would make an Illinois
farmers mouth water to look at them.
There does not seem room enough to
stack the small grain, and we risk our
reputation on the statement that the
corn raised this year in that section
I'LL iii CllUo ClOttSi W CllN41ClC III
ner county. In the long ride Of forty
five miles there was no break in this
procession of prosperity.
In the Vermillion valley near Cen
treyille we heard the farmers talk.
The crops were stacked and threshing
commenced. Wheat as large as ker-
nels of pop corn and averaging thirty
five bushels to the acre; corn as tall
and erect as a Grenedier and dead sure
for seventy bushels; oats so luxuriant
that the stocks crowded each other in
the field. Near Centreyille lives a
farmer who soWed some choice barley
only two acres-but the yield is l47
bushels.
Let us hear no about the unproduc-
tiveness of South Dakota. Sunshine,
rain and good soil never did better
work than the results show has been
done in our state this year. The croak-
er is dead-and SO are his sisters and
his cousins and his aultS.

And to aid In this the Herald will be
furnished until December 1st for 25
cents, sent to any address outside of
the state.
It is not the boom editions Of news
papers that attract attention, as the
public generally understands the pur-
pose for which they are issued, but it Is
the every day local happenings and
crop reports and items OF improve
ment which are found in the local col
umns OF the county papers from week
to week that work silently though
surely for the benefit Of the community
in which the paper is published.
Turner county wants the world at
large to know what is being done here
this year, and we ask all to report to
this Office the result of their labors as
the returns come from the threshing
machines-or elsewhere.
Each one of our business men and
farmers can afford to send a number of
papers east. Hand in the names at
once.
