Pierre: June 1S.-The semi
annual apportio ament of the
interest and income fund to the
schools OF the state has just been
made for June Is. 1t is the
largest semi-annual apportion
ment which has ever been made
by the state land department,
and reaches total of S2S9,
which is an increase of 500, 500 20
over the apportionment of the
same date last year. The amount
distributed is S2,19 per capita on
all the school children of the
state, taken from the last wear
school census figures, the total
number being 1872, $50, an in
crease of 2,124 over the previous
year.
The December apportionment
is never SO large as that in
June, but it is safe to say that
the schools of the state will re
ceive not less thaD S3 per capita
from the state this year.
The apportion ment for Grant

down for 1874 children and
