An I(lcal Farm.

In a neat little pamphlet recently
issued from Brookings Agricultural
College there occures the following,
which should be read and rondered
by every lover OF farmers happy
home:
What the farmer OF the Dakota
Artesian Belt should aim to achieve
should be small farm with sufficient
water supply to insure successful in.
tensive cultivation. Thehome should
be furnished with garden and fruit
trees, and small fruits should be FRO
vided, while shade trees and shelter
belts should surround ali. Stock OF
all kinds should be kept and special
pains should be taken to maintain
the fertility OF thesoil. Pigs, poultry,
mutton sheep, dairy cows and work
horses should be found on every farm
and ii these are to be kept in large
numbers more land should be pro-
vided and used as permanent pasture
and meadow without any attempt to
cultivate or to irrigate. In this way
our wealth OF native grasses would all
be utaliZed and We should have thous.
ands OF happy prosperous homes
where the land is now entirely unused.
The rule and watchword then would
be "1ntense cultivation or no culti-
walton at ALL" Diversified farming
with all it's manifold blessings would
then make a reality OF what is now
but a dream. A healthier tone would
psevade everywhere and there would
be no further desire to rob this beuti-
full belt OF it's fertility and reduce the
land to a barren waste by the pre-.
vailing and wasteful one crop system
which has been SO widely practiced.
Some wheat together with corn, pota.
toes, rye, millett, oats, green folders
and root crops would be produced
and prosperity would follow.

South Dakota Sheep Breeders.

The South Dakota Sheep Breeders
and Wool Growers Association have
Just been in session in Mitchell, and

Ter was also present. and addressed
the association in regard to a tariff on
wool. PaI ers have been read from
various members OF the association

ing and shipping OF sheep. Prof.
Shaw is an interesting talker and is
looked upon by the members as an
authority on sheep, and was called
upon to answer innumerable cues.
tions.
The committee on resolutions SUBJ
mitted the following:
Whereas, the manufacturers OF
wooden fabrics are protected by the
government;
"Resolved, that We demand in the
interest OF the wool growers of the
United States that duty of cents
per pound be imposed upon all woods
imported into the country.
Whereas, during the last political
campaign our South Dakota Sheep
Breeders Association was quoted
from Maine to California and from
Canada to the Gulf as well as foreign
countries as iavoring free wool:
Resolved, that such statements
are misleading and that we are un-
alterably opposed to either low
tariff or free trade as applied to wool,
believing it undigni6ed and unfair for
our government to freely extend to
the manufacturer protection denied
the producer and that we request the
press of the United States to publish
this resolution and 80 correct the
false impression created regarding
our statements on the question.
Resolved, that we. representing
the sheep breeders OF South Dakota,
are anxious to express our unbound
ed confidence in the future of the in.
dustry and the unparalleled capaci.
ties OF this state as sheep country.
Whereas, our industry is at all
times liable to be hurt by contagious
diseases;
"Be it resolved, that the members
of this association pledge themselves
not to support by their ballots any
candidate for the state legislature
who will not first agree to support a
bill to protect our sheep from contae
eous diseases.'
