FIGHT The MISSOURI.
Course of the River Being Changed at
Oacoma, South Dakota.

The Milwaukee Railroad company
has a gang of men at work placing
willows, dirt and other material unde,
the west end of the pile bridge across
the main channel of the Missouri river
at Oacoma, where the railroad made
crossing for its extension from Cham
Hills. The company expects to thus
fill about 100 feet for the purpose o:
protecting the pile bridge and prevent
ing it's being washed out or damaged
should the water in the river rise sc
high next spring as to overflow the
erection which has been made on the
east side of American island behind
the rick dixie that was built out last
year to cause this.
Work also has commenced on the
big dam across the side channels OF
the Missouri between American island
and Lyman county on the west side
of the river. The main channel of the
Missouri is next to the Brule county
shore at the point where the railroad
bridge has been constructed across the
river About third of the work done
on the dam last spring was washed out
by the July freshet. But the remain
der held firm and SO reduces the vol
ume of water on the west side, be
tween American island and the Lyman
county shore, that the stream now
flowing there is much smaller ane
much more shallow than before. 1t
will be much easier to construct the
dam than it was last spring, and the
probability is that the dam during the
winter can be made of sufficient
strength to resist the strong pressure
of water when the river gets on its
customary rampage next spring
Should the dam stand the pressure all
the water in the river will be forced
into the main channel between Amer
lean island and the Brule county
shore, along which, in that Immediate
vicinity, teh town of Chamberlain ex

AFTER SHARE OF INSURANCE TAX

Last year several towns were left

ports this year against 60 which made
filing last year. The list, which has
been certified to the insurance COM

Land Commissioner Bach is sending

funds to disburse on Jan. / to the diff

school fund for their investment.
There is only $17.92 of the fund lying
idle in the state treasury, and this

that it would be of no use to any coun,
ty. The balance OF the fund, amount
ing to $4,670.499, is invested and draw

LACK OF ADVERTISING.
North Dakota's Population Shows Big
Gain Over South Dakota.

=
Gain Over South Dakota.
When the two Dakotas were admit
ted to statehood, in 1889, South Dako-
ia had fully third more population
than did the north state.
At the present time the population
of the two states is practically the
same, as shown by the census of this
year. Ever since the admission, North
Dakota has been working to secure
new population. Its state land depart
ment is supplied with sufficient fund
for advertising purposes to send out
illustrated circulars and a large
amount of printed matter. in which
not only the state lands alone are ad.
vertised, but the section in which they
located is shown up to the best
advantage.
During the same time the Great
Northern road has kept in existence
an immigration bureau of it's own and
has done great deal towards ,secur-
ing settlers for that state For the
same time every effort to secure any
thing in the way of an appropriation
from the legislature of South Dakota
for advertising the state or keeping an
immigration bureau in existence has
met with cold rundown.
Nothing has been done outside Of
private efforts of different land compa-
MES. The result of the different poll
cies followed by the two states is
shown in the figures which give North
Dakota gain of 10000 in population
since 1890, and South Dakota a gain
of but $4,000.
The question of action is being gem
orally discussed over the state, and it
is hoped that if the next legislature
will do nothing more, it will supply an
additional clerk in the state land de-
partment for that purpose and provide
him with sufficient fund for printing
to be able to answer the many inquir-
les which come to that department,
but which cannot be answered for the
reason of lack of opportunity and the
necessary information.

Second, the brighter and more ambitious ehil- dren of every class. Both these classes will probably enter into business or professional life. A sound and yigor- ois body and tough nervous system are absolutely essential to their success.
 Muscular exercise and fresh air are necessary to the child to promote growth and development of all the vi tai organs, the brain included. If the

 The sensory and motor centers de- serve and need more time and training for their full development. The best hygienic exercise for the child, that which will bast promote the growth of all the vital organs, is the one which calls into the play the largest mass of muscular tissues. Such exercises are running and climbing and others which use the muscles of trunk, legs and shoulders. and which charactsrize the natural, spontaneous plays of children.
