The Grower should store.

It does not seem right that so few ap-
ple growers store and handle their
fruit themselves, but insist on giving so
much of what should be additional
profit to others, who, in many cases,
have no advantage over the grower in
getting the fruit to cold storage, and
market. l would urge that growers pre-
pare themselves to take advantage of
every opportunity to get all they can out
Of their crops. They may as well have
the apple buyers profit and certainly
deserve all they can honestly get,-Rural

scarcely approached by any other COM

wealth every year. in proportion, than any
other state in the union. It's farms ranges,

lationi Is about 100000, which makes a per

It's manifest destiny is to become q rich

The r-n.al is probably doing
more than all the other twin city newspa-
pers combined to advertise and build up,
the Dakotas. It has enlisted In a con-
tinuous campaign for the sister states on
the west, and the excursion Of land-seek-
ers and investors planned for this month
is only a new feature Of the good work
it has been doing since the beginning
It accounts itself particularly fortunate
In securing the cooperation Of the Lund
Land Agency which has come to be
known all over the west and In many parts
Of the east as one Of the most progress
In the country. This company has over
$500 agents and the majority Of them will
| cooperate actively in making this ex-
cursion one of the largest and best which
has entered South Dakota
Stopover privileges for any point de-
sired can be obtained and the excursion
list can remain almost fortnight in the
state II he so elects, thus giving him am
pie time to make his selections. The train
service and accommodations will be of the
best character obtainable. Land -search-
7 ing under conditions like these is pas
time and pleasure rather than a task and
ordeal to be entered upon with misgiv-
ings. There can be no more opportune
time for investments. Good land will
never be so cheap again.
All Of The Journal excursions have been
great popular successes. This, its latest,
will have practical side which will COM
mend 1t to many not otherwise attracted.
I It aims primarily to stimulate and create
a new interest in South Dakota lands and
enterprises, to prove by personal inspec-
ton and the evidence of the senses, that
! the conditions are almost unprecedented
for successful investment and settlement.
The Journal-Lund homeseekers' excursion
will certainly furnish a great trip to a
great state.

Instantly there was an explosion that

pieces and shot Sphinx upward. He struck
the ceiling with such force as to tear
away the plastering. His clothing caught
in the laths and there he hung. When
the fire department arrived a moment
later Sphinx was lowered to the floor. He
was not seriously injured. He explained
that the match was drawn into the bung-
