of it for the city than to build four
crosswalks along the east side of the
street ond keep them in repair. Bet

another cement walk lon Main street
where more than two or three will get
the benefit.
Henri Wentzy says that he has the
finest field Of potatoes he has ever
raised, and as he always manages to
raise a good lot of them, they must be
pretty good. Mr.. Wentzy plants his
seed with the sprouts on-contrary to
the usual practice-cutting them with
about two sprouts to the piece and
planting carefully by hand with the
sprouts shooting upward. He says
that the potatoe plants will begin to
show above the ground in eight days
and make a rapid growth.

The writer saw several companies
at Mitchell en- route toWatertown but
not one Of them presented as fine APP
pearance as Company FL. One OF these
companies appeared to be clothed in
several kinds of uniforms, and rusty
looking equipments and uniforms
were seen everywhere. The Mitchell
Republican mentioned particularly
the fine appearance Of Company III.
The three officers, Capt. Quirk and
Lieutenants Holbrook and Blodgett,
were the best looking trio of officers
in n company in sight.
Huronite; The extreme and long
continued drouth in the Empire state
will cause great financial loss to the
farmers, but no one will think of leav-
ing the state because it has an occa-
sional drouth. Every section Of the
country is visited by these calamities
at some time. The trouble is, too
much attention is paid to them. South
Dakota has never suffered from drouth
to any alarming extent. The drouths
have not been very prolonged or very
severe. They have been too we'll adj
vertised. that's all.
Sioux Falls Argus: Prof. Holbrook
of the Kimball schools would not ac-
cept reelection as principal for the
ensuing year and his place is left open
temporarily. He was also leader Of
the band and the prime mover in
musical circles and first lieutenant in
the local company of the national
guard and if there was any other place
that the people of the town wanted
him to fill, all they had to was to men
ton it. They will find it difficult to
fill his place and especially at the
salary usually paid to a principal in a
town the size of Kimball.
One Of the finest and best kept
farms in this part Of Brule county is
that OF S. Josephson's, northeast of
Kimball a few miles. Mr.. Josephson
has added to the attractiveness of his
place this spring by setting out about
1000 trees. He put out quite a num-
Der of fruit trees. The trees he set
out last year have done so well it has
encouraged him to go at it quite ex-
tensively this season. Mr.. Josephson
believes that anyone can raise quanti-
ties of the hardy fruits here by proper
care-at any rate he is showing the
faith that'sin him and is to be COM
mended for his enterprise.
The "Old 'Unn Of the Howard
Spirit is a dead game sport-a base
ball fan after u own heart-and he's
a whole decade past the ball paying
age. "a a is as old as he feels, .
runs an old say-and it just makes us
old "has beens'' want to get right out
and-break a finger or two-to read
last weeks base ball edition Of the
Spirit. When the Howard boys want
to win a hard game they should wad
their panties with copies Of the Spirit;
that'l put ginger into them which
will give their opponents phits.

Clate Tinan is no longer the private
publisher shielding himself behind
"Press. courtesy but a public man, as
superintendent of the Press gang in
running the Mitchell Capital tight,and
hence is open to character ventilation,
and if found a grabber, CRATER or
boodler, Mitchell's cause will suffer.
All right, Uncle Chauncey; that's
fair. Just go ahead with your rat
kllling-but be u you are right
before you go ahead. Bea man and
stick to the truth and you'll hear no
kick from this quarter. Let some
body else do the Czolgosz act-if there
are any such left on earth.
