Faux County.
Faulkton, S. D., Aug. "A young
farmer from Washington was in FaullS
county last week, looking for the Local
ton of his mothers grave.
Twenty years ago the northwest part
of this county was settled by a colony
of Germans. A church and a school
house accommodating forty pupils We're
erected in the mids of the village of
sod houses. Today in the very center
of the townsite the ficker-tail gopher
digs his hole undisturbed by anything
but the tramp of cattle and the passing
of an occasional carriage. 1t was mere,
ly the old story of hot winds and wheat
failures. The people became deeper
in debt each season. The gentleman
from Washington says "One morning
my mother sent me to our nearest
n%eighbors, and behold, we had no
neighbor. I went to the next. They,
too, We're gone. Twelve families had
moved out in the night. In less than
two months the rest followed. The lack
of water was u greatest trouble"
Artesian wells have made this Sec
ton of the country one of the finest
ranching districts in the state. but
three lone graves still keep guard over
the buried hopes of the nee prosperous
villagers.
