When to Go HON Q.

From the Bluffton, Ind, Banner:
"When tired out, go home. When
you want consolation, GO home.
When you want fun, go home.
When you want to show others
that you have reformed, 60 home
and let your family get acquainted
with the fact. When you want to
show yourself at your best go home
and do the act there. When you
feel like being extra liberal go home
and practice on your wife and child
rem first. When you want to shine
with extra brilliancy go home and
light up the whole household" To
which we would add, when you
have bad cold go home and take

An effort will be made during
the coming session of the legislature
to pass q bill making the state
board OF regents elective instead of
appointive, hepurpose being to re-
lieve the board Of political influence.
On general principles the plan
might not be Objectionable, but it
is doubtful if the desired result
would be accomplished. An cleo
tive board would be nothing if not
political. A board appointed by a
governor who is large enough to ig-
more political lines and make his
selection on the ground of fitness
would be the ideal board, but an
elective board would be preferable
to one appointed by governor
whose conception rises no higher
than political preferment.

Turner county is quite proud Of
the fact that both the first and sec
ond prizes offered last spring hy J.
J. Hill, OF the Great Northern rail
road, for the best kept farms iii
South Dakota, were captured by
farmers in that county. The first
prize of $500 was given to s. E. Nc
Collough and the second, $3.50 to
John Lakings, both living near Hur-
ley. It's probably unfortunate for
some of the model farmers around
Scotland that their farms are not
located near line of the Great
Northern railroad system.

Doane Robinson, secretary Of the
state historical society, has just is
sued his sixth annual report cover
ing the development, immigration
and production OF wealth in South
Dakota. The figures show that the
year 1906 has been one of the most
progressive in the history of the
state. In the production of wealth
the state still maintains is prestige,
the production being the largest per
capita of any state in the Union.
OF course it is too early to get the
exact reports of crop values, but
the estimates are based upon care
full observations, and Mr.. Robin
sons reputation for conservatism
makes it reasonably safe to take
his estimates as approximately cor
rect. The following are the esti-
mates given for this year:
Wheat, 8, ,494, J ,lo8 bu 500, ,9sl, 1924
Corn, 7se, ,4l4,331 bu .23, ,224, ,299 80
