the LOCAL. SLAUGHTER HOUSES

Sioux Falls Press
Responding to an aroused
public sentiment over the mix
ture Of filth with food, Commits
sioner Small, head of the food
and dairy department of South
Dakota, is turning his atten ton
20 the condition of LEGAL slaugh-
ter houses within the state. He
says he :inds that most OF them
are in a daplorable condition.
His report specifies:
The average local slaughter
houses is usually maintained at
distance from all habitation, ST.
that residents may not be an
noyed by intolerable smells
which emanate from them. In
many cases hog yards are main
tained in connection with the
slaughter house and into these
is dumped all the offal and othes
matter not u utilized in the meat
market, aud tile. buildings them
selves become saLa rated with
deconposed grease and blood.

 "CareweIl-her fathers name. al- though she has been married. She left her husband when they had been married but a year."
 "Why?" Preston turned again and came back eagerly, no thought of im- propriety in the question occurring to him in his intense excitement.
 Andrews lost color for an instant as he replied; >.4 I've never questioned her about this to any extent, but from what can glean, the fellow must have treat cd her rather brutally."
 "BrutaIlyl God!' thought the oth- CT with a swift rush of bitterness. Then 8 quick revulsion seized him. They had never been congenial, even as lovers. Their married life had been decidely uncomfortable, as far as he was concerned, although he felt that he had done the best he could. She was not the sort of woman for him; he was certainly not the man to make her happy. Perhaps the very difference had been a daily crucifixion to her; had been as ray lash on her sensibilities! He looked again at An drews' illumined face. No; there could be no doubt of the genuineness of his love- Nor looking at the face in the picture, could there be any doubt that she was perfectly content. For q brief moment. Preston thought with keen resentment of the things she had done to make their brief welded life all the more unbearable. Then he caught the smile on his friends eye a smile of unalloyed happiness-and the past vanished. Andrews had been the best friend he had ever had, and he could not bring himself to that. If anything could reclaim her, 1t was love like this. And if. in the old days, his had been the blame in any degree, he owed it to her now to keep silence.
 At midnight he shook hands with Andrews for the last time, giving his promise to come and stay with him and his wife on his return the follow ing summer.
 But he never saw him again.

the acreage of 1904 may be aC plished in the year 1SO0."

the acreage of 1904 may be accOm- Dlished in the year 1SO6."
 It is generally admitted that the re- duction in cotton acreage for 1905 amounted to an average of Is per cent. The demand for full reduction of 25 per cent. from the enormous area plant ed in 1904 would mean that we must still further reduce the area planted in 1906 from that of 1905 at least 10 per cent. Those farmers who reduced that cotton acreage 25 per cent last year will not be asked to reduce again this year, but they will be expected to hold their acreage down to that planted last year. Those farmers who did not reduce last year are expected to cat their acreage 25 per cent. this year. The man who reduced 15 per cent. last year is expected to cut his acreage another ten per cent this year. In other words, it is imperative that the cotton area planted on every farm in the South this year shall be at least 25 per cent. less than that planted in the spring of 1904
 This is easily understood and should be strictly carried into practical opera. tion if the advice of the best brains from leadings Southern farmers the Southern Cotton Association and the perils of overproduction are to be heed ed. The farmers are generally getting 
 into a position of thrift and indepen- dence. This is due to the fact that for the past few years, with but one excep- ton, the crops of cotton grown, have not materially exceeded the demands for consumption, and fairly good prices have prevailed.
 DiveraihcatIOn the WatchwOrd.
 That the area planted in cotton last year was too large there can be no question of doubt. But for the bad oli- matic conditions prevailing in the Southwestern States. we would have produced 12 00O,00 bales and suffered a tremendous depression in prices With the area planted in 1905. which amount ed to 27.O00, ,000 acres. 1t Is easily pos- sible. with normal seasons, to produce a crop of over 13.00O.O0o bales. What is the sensible thing to do; cut the acre. age and hold production within the limits of consumption at good prices, or

This Is the question which now confronts ev- cry cotton grower in the South Di- versification is the keynote to the proper solution of the problem. Plant more land in food-supply crops; less land in cottoni live at home, and sell your staple crops slowly. and at prices showing a profit on the years labor. Cotton Is today the cheapest commo- dity on the market. figuring the true cost of it's production.
 The true doctrine of diversification and reduction in cotton acreage will be preached from every hill-top and valley. by the officers and members of the Southern Cotton Association. dur Ing the next 90 days. The entire South ern press will be urged to lift It's voice, in behalf of these two fundamen- tai propositions upon which the South must stake her fortunes in 1906 The wise man will heed this advice. and exercise every possible influence over any of his neighhors who are not dis posed to exercise prudence before If is too late. Make your farms self-sus- taining and grow happy and prosper ous.
 As the markets of the world ara gradually broadened and the demand increases. then. and not till then. let tho acreage planted in cotton be increas- ed. Regulate the supply to meet the present existing demand for consump- tion. and thereby have a controllin e- voice in the prices of the raw product. No power on earth can control prices. when the legitimate laws of supply and demand are recklessly disregarded. The farmers are the arbiters of their fu- ture fortunes. We will point the way to success. Pause and reflect before it is too late.

Cotton Area for 100o.

What shall the cotton area of the South be in 1906? This question can be asked by anyone. It can alone be def nitely and correctly answered by that great army of cotton growers, who will solve the problem for themselves and the world within the next 90 days. The great Cotton Convention. which met at New Orleans. La, Jan. 11-13. 1906. and the Executive Committee of the South ern Cotton Association. which convened at the same place on Jan. 18th. both, tremendously and without a dissenting voice, passed and recommended the fol- lowing resolution:
 ''BeIievlng that the 25 per cent. re- ductiOn in cotton acreage, recommend ed and insisted upon by the Southern Cotton Association at its meeting nt New Orleans, Ln., a year ago was em- inently wise and salutary, this conn mfttee suggests with nl1 the insistence at It's command that for the year IOOd the Cotton Association endeaver to continue that work, to the end that the original 25 per cent. reduction from
