Britton Observation-Disclosures mer
OF Huron say that farmers in Beadle
county are getting on their feet, not
withstanding wheat is only 35 cents
a bushel. When you inquire how
you will find that it is by keeping
COWS and supplying creameries which
produce butter that sells for 25 cents
a pound, Every good COW produ.
ces IS worth of good creamery butter
each month.
Eureka, S. D., has creamery, and
Hosmer and Roscoe are making ar
rangements to have them. The fac
tory at Hosmer will start out with
$40 COWS and the Roscoe one 800 to

flowing with milk and honey but it
will soou be land of milk and but

Leader.-The Progressive Latin
Club was highly entertained at the
home of Miss Axtel Saturday even
ing. The contest was in the declen-
sion of pronouns and comparison of
adjectives, in which Miss Hodges,
was the champion Of the evening,
scoring thirteen marks. An excellent
lunch was served after which the
company listened to several we'll rem
dered songs by the voealists of the
party.
Commercial.-For the next three
months people will read advertise
ments more than the entire rest Of
the year. 1t is by all odds the best
time to advertise in newspapers.
Men who think they save money by
waiting until two weeks before they
advertise make as great mistake as
the farmer would if he waited until
the week before harvest to SOW his
wheat. Winter is the seedtime of
advertising. Look after your plant
ing this winter and the harvest next
summer and fall will take care of it.
self,
jamestown will soon establish a
record. We understand that a
young lady from New Jersey came
out last week in answer to an ad. in
the Heart and Hand, met her lover
on the day of arrival for the first time
and in few hours, or minutes they
welded. That's fair gait to strike
when courting. Under the new code
it will take but As days to institute
divorce proceedings. Heretofore u
days notice was required. Under this
liberal law our sister state on the
south is slightly in the cold. North
Dakota will soon bethe divorce center
for the Union. This is a state in
which business is done with wbirr.
but there IS likelihood of getting
the record down too fine.
