FAVORABLE IN SOUTH DAKOTA
Outlook Is Excellent Despite the Be-
lated Spring. .,..

Sioux Falls, S. D., June 17.-Regard-
less of the fact that the spring was
rainy and cold, delaying the work Of
planting, small grain, corn and other
crops in South Dakota have recently
made rapid growth because Of warm
weather and are now about as far ad-
all reports, the outlook for a good crop
could not be more favorable than at
present. "7-.-
Small grain stooled well owing to the
unusually cool weather early in the
season, and is now in fine condition.
Several localities, where for several
years crops have been somewhat poor
because the rainfall was below normal,
this year have had their full share of
rain, and crops accordingly compare ia
vorably with those in other parts.
Thousands of acres have this season
| been cultivated for the first time in the
newer portions of the state. In the
work of breaking virgin prairie the
farmers have generally utilized trac-
tion engines for operating plows. The
farm machinery dealers Of Mitchell
alone have thus far sold about thirty
such engines for use in breaking raw
prairie land. Many more have been

river in the north central part of the
state:
The new lands, as fast as broken, are
sown to fax, and next year will large
ly be added to the acreage devoted tc
wheat. The work Of breaking an6
sowing to fax is still going on in some
localities, notwithstanding the lateness

MANITOBA. COUNTS
UPON A BUMPER
Moisture in the Province Already
Ample to Make the
Crop. ..
Special to The Journal.

Special to The Journal. .....
Winnipeg, Man., June 17.-Prospects
in Manitoba for bumper crop were
never brighter, is the conclusion to be
drawn from returns received and is
sued in an official report by the de-
partment of agriculture. The conclu-
sions are based on reports from 400
correspondents. in the province.
Wheat shows an increase Of IL per
cent, and there is substantial increase
in oats and barley. Wheat was sown
early and in good condition, but seed
ing was delayed in oats and barley on
account of rains. The wheat crop is
covering the ground and is we'll stooled
out. There is 50 much moisture. in the
soil now that even if no more rain falls
before harvest, good crop is assured.
The total area under crop is Wheat,
2,649, 588; oats, 1,03l ,239; barley, 432,-
298. Total, 4,lO7,125. Flax, rye, peas,
corn and pasturage, 110,464. Grand to-
tai, 4,217 $50. Increase in grain crops,
1874 As sSr e.; other crops 4SS79 acres
One special feature of the reports
in that the crops, compared with last
years, are further advanced. The har-
vest should be as good as last year,
which was 26 bushels to the acre.
Official estimates have not been made
of the number of laborers who will pc
required in the harvest, but 10000 will
be wanted. .2-.. -, g--

NORTHERN TRAVEL HEAVY
A Winnipeg Railroad Man Gives
Some Startling Figures.

In the past month west bound emf
grafton from Winnipeg to the Cana
dian northwest spent $66O,00O in tick
cts purchased over the Canadian Paci-
fic road alone.
This is the assertion of Bruce Eggo,
ticket agent of the Canadian Pacific
road at Winnipeg, and today a guest at
the Hotel Nicollet.
j. y" 7 !. the past month";, said q: Mr.: Eggoo
thru our Winnipeg office for points
west of Winnipeg, numbered 10000.
The average price per ticket is from
$15 to $l8. This tremendous traffic is
in spite Of the fact that Canadian
northwest lands have greatly advanced
in price, and is also in part due to the
opening of two new rich districts, by
the beginning Of railroad traffic over
the new 220-mile branch from Arcola
to Regina, and the 150-mile branch
from Kirkella to Upton:
"The Canadian Pacific runs daily out
Of Winnipeg westbound, two thru coast
trains, and four local passenger trains.
Three times a week in addition, there
are two extra trains run each of the
three special days to accommodate the
enormous traffic. ~

HAS A SOFT BED
Father of Waters Discussed from al
Engineers Viewpoint.

In an article by Arthur Warren on
the water power development at Little
Falls the Engineering Record discusses
the erosion of the bed Of the Mississippi
and its relation to power dams. little
Falls has remarkable advantages be-
cause of the enduring character of the
rock. He alludes to the water power
at Minneapolis and the engineering
feats which were necessary to preserve
the falls.
Between Minneapolis and Little Falls
are two places where there is fall
enough to make water powers, says Mr..
Warren, but there is not spot where
treacherous limestone, sand or sand
stone does not form the river bed. It
leaks so freely that often there is no
more water going past Minneapolis,
many miles below, than flows over the
falls at Little Falls. These are the
leaks which feed the many flowing arte-
sian wells in Minneapolis.

Graders who are pushing the trolley
line to Fort Smelling have reached a
point short distance beyond the
springs that supply the fort with wa
ter where the two large water tanks
are located. The road thru the reser-
walton, from the point where it becomes
continuation of the Minnehaha line,
passes thru a belt of timber, curves to
the, rear of the only farmhouse in that
vicinity and passes one of the most
historic spots on the whole reservation,
close to the water tank. On the hill
at that point, from which a fine view Of
the new fort can be obtained, a COM
modious hotel was built about 1885,
called the ST.. Louis house; It was
erected by a civilian, the privilege be-
ing granted by the commanding Off
Ger, as it was for the Stevens house
in Minneapolis at later date, both Of
them being included in the military
reservation. The Pond brothers, who
came as missionaries to Minnesota in
1884 and settled at Lake Calhoun, once
occupied the st. Louis hotel as a dwell
ing, and little later Norman w. Kit
son, the fur trader and one-time part
ner of James J: Hill, was also a ten
ant in the building: It was there that
living at St. Paul, was born about 1S41
or 1912. Close to this spot on the river
bank the second log cantonment Of the
Fifth infantry, which built Fort Smell

ing, was erected in 1920, and while the
troops were still there in that year,
they laid the cornerstone of the old
fort at the confluence of the Missis-
slppi and Minnesota rivers. No trace
of the cantonment can be found today,
but the spot can be easily located. It
was similar to the one first built by
the troops in 1919 on the Mendoza side
of the Minnesota river, and after it's
evacuation was used as cattle corral
by the herders in charge of the beef
cattle belonging to the post. The Mil
waukee road has laid spur track
toward the commissary buildings from
the springs, and over this the Twin
City Rapid Transit company is erecting
a concrete and steel bridge Close to
this bridge Eli Pettijohn s house stood
on the forties, while he was in charge
Of the farm connected with the post.
The trolley line approaches the wagon
road f1en Minnehaha near the tanks,
but 6tes not cross it. After passing
over the Milwaukee tracks the line
turns to the northeast and will, for the
present, terminate close to the gun
sheds, where the loop will be built.
When connection is made with the. St.
Paul line over new Mississippi river
bridge, the road will pass thru the spot
now occupied by the old cemetery. The
work will probably be completed so
that cars will be running from Mime
apolis direct to Fort Smelling by Aug. l.
