The "comebackers."

In Deighboring county once upon
q time a sub-organization WAS formed
in the old settlers society of the c0un-
ty. At the annual picnic Of the
pioneers it was found that representa-
tives of more than . score OF families
that had ''gone away and come back"
were present. These got together
and formed Comeback Society,""
There is plenty of material In EN-
mons county for such an organization.
We have people within our borders
who have gone to all sorts Of places and
then come back. Some have gone to
Virginia, but not to remain. Others
have tried the Canadian northwest.
Others have gone east and others
west. These comebackers are here to
stay this time. They know how 1t Is
from experience. They don't have to
be Showed. They've Showed"
themselves. Two well-knOwn repre-
sentatives Of the comeback idea are
John Wray and George Whalen. One
is coming back to the lIazeltOn cOun-

Through the Dakota Farmer, the
farmers institute, seed specials, or all
three, most northwest farmers have
heard about the possibilities Of better
seed selection, breeding, testing, treat
ing, etc. Very few who have heard
these subjects properly presented but
agree that timely attention to these
few things will add at least fourth
to the grain yield Of the Dakotas and
Minnesota, and that 1t can all be done
with less average expense tn each in
dividual farmer than 1t would take
to add one good pure-bred male to his
herd or flock. We know Of many large
farmers and some small grain.growers
WHO are preparing to carry out every
detail OF better seed handling, and we

good hard dollars next fall for doing

BALD-HEADED sRIDEoRooMs
They Are Fine Citizens and It Is No
Wonder the Girls Like
Them.

An esteemed contemporary has
opened the columns to discussion OF
the question why do educated and
refined women marry bald-headcd
menu and men with and without halr
seem to be considerably ag!tated over
1t. Even women are Joining in the
discussion, and there are as many ex-
plantations as there are correspondents.
None OF them, however, explains, says
the st. Louis Globe Democrat.
II is the form Of the question owl

much and the presumption is accept

though they do sometimes, when hey
cannot catch them earlier.
The question deals with particulars
as generals. 1t should be- why do
women marry menu" And he answer
to this, II we do not confuse the is
sue by the citation Of examples. OF
which we remark; "What IN earth
did she see in him." IS simple.
Women marry men 10 get husbaads.
Men marry women 10 &c, wives. Fat.

Anyway, why should the bald mead
be brought into the limellght In his
spectacular way? Is It nor consricu-

1t Is to his credit. The bald head sets

Washington, Dec. 10 An i'm
portant decision has been rendered
by Secretary Straus of the depart
ment of commerce and labor, as to
the right OF state to induce immi-
grafton to that state. The decision
holds, in brief. that Tin the circum-
stances) there is no violation of the
immigration laws or OF the law to
prohibit the importation of alien
contract laborers in the action of
the state OF South Carolina in this
particular instance in encouraging
immigration to that state or paying
the necessary expenses OF immigrants
in coming into the state.
Under a new law. South Carolina
organized a department of agricul-
tural, commerce and immigration
Acting under this law, the commits
sion induced several hundred Bel
gian mill operatives and German
farm laborers to migrate to South
Carolina. They were sent to various
points in the state where needed, and
were at liberty to accept or reject
the position assigned them.
