He had almost completed an arrange

western enterprises. but in order to
get the final authority he needed from
New York he must explain all he had
done by wire to his partners
There was no time to write. He had
no cipher code. For a long time he
tried TO think out some way to send
the information so that 1t would be
plain to his partners and meaningless
to any one else His secret was val
liable one and once sent over the wire
might be sold out to his rivals in Wall
street for large sum.
Az last he decided to take the chances
in plain English. Accordingly he wrote
the message and gave 1t to his assist
ant TO send.
Half an hour later, when the assist
ant came back. he asked him II he had
sent IT,

AN ODD WHIST HAND.

Recent Sales of School
Land Show Farmers
all Have Perfect
Confidence.
SNAPPED UP At HIGH FIGURES
Highest County Average was in
Turner County and the
Lowest in Kings
bury County.

Do the people of South Dakota
believe in the stateY is question
which has been effectually answered
in the returns from the school land
sales this spring. Appraised by the
state school lands board at figure
above the past selling value of like
lands in the same vicinity, they were
not only snapped up by farmers
who owned adjoining lands at that
minimum, but in many cases the
price was sent to almost double that
by hot competitive bidding,
When the state board fixed the
price, local complaint came that the
price was too high and no sales
would be made, but the position Of
the state board was that South
Dakota lands were a good thing to
hold onto and allow the prevailing
prices to go higher before disposing
of them if the people did not want
them at the appraisement price.
Commissioners Bach in the past
two years has established standard
for land sales, which will keep his
successor hustling to beat. The
sales just closed brought the state
S543 1862. 20 for 1S,050 acres of land
an average of 1902 an acre for all
disposed of. OF this total ST, 483-
.35 was in excess of the appraise-
ment price, showing that the farmers
of the state wanted the land badly
enough to go higher in their esti-
mate of its value than did even the
board
The heaviest sales and the most
active bidding occurred in the coun-
ties of Bon Homme and Hutchinson,
in which counties about half of the
total acreage was disposed of, and
choice tracts were run up to So7 an
acre in the former courtyard 1929
in the latter. The farmers were on
hand in numbers and took almost
every thing offered, as they had been
growing wealthy on the same class
of land and wanted more of it. The
highest price paid for any one
tract was $3.50 per acre for 40 acre
tract in Hanson county. Think of
that as a comparison. Only few
years ago the state was selling just
as good land down in that part of
the state at SO an acre in all the
counties in which sales were made.
At the same rate the permanent
school fund will reach more than
$75,00,000, and the income will
practically care for the public
schools of the state.
The highest county average was
| for Turner at 1920, with the low
est in Kingsbury, $26.72, and most
of them run close to $50, rs the gen
eral average shows. Bon Homme
county was below that, but this is
caused by the sale of several tracts
of sand bar along the river at only
SO an acre, the average outside
these peices going well above $50
an acre.
With the home farmers swapping
up raw prairie land at such prices
there is no question as to what can
be expected by the men who get and
hold South Dakota lands in ado part
of the state at the present prices, as
the advance will be the same all
over the state as it has been in the
southeastern part.
