fore requested to visit and inspect all

restions as a basis OF safe and sanitary

for both the slaughter houses and the
premises.
8. A thorough cleansing of the
slaughter houses and premises of ma
nures and offal after such butcher

The office of the state superintesld-
ent Of instruction is being flooded with
letters from eastern states i'm regard
to positions as teachers in this state.
superintendent Kramer says: 1T is
probable that the rural schools will
need from 500 to 200 teachers. The
city positions are practically all filled
before this time. The rural positions
pay from s35 to s55 a month, with an
average of from $40 to $45. These
schools are the average rural school,
within a few miles of some village or
city having the average American
boys and girls to teach. The corre-
spondence coming to this office would
indicate that there is an impression
that South Dakota is hopelessly short
of teachers and that hose in the east
who cannot make good can be re-
ceived herewithout question as good.
We do want scores of good teachers,
but we do not want any whose equip
ment is not satisfactory. A letter ad-
dressed to the county superintendent
of schools at any county seat in the
state will bring the interested persons
the information they desire.
Attorney General Hall has sent out
to clerks of courts of the state a cir
.ular letter covering the new national
naturalization law which will go into
| effect on the 27th of September. At
ter that date all blanks used In nat
uralization cases must be secured
from the department at Washington
and will be numbered. the clerks re-
ceiving them being held accountable
for all numbers received. Any appli-

for period of not less than ninety
days before final action is taken by
the court, which action must be on n
set day of term, but no such natural
ization can be completed within the
thirty days preceding general cleo
ton. The whole matter of naturaliza-
ton is practically placed under fed
eral control. though through the ma
chinery of the state courts. and 1t is
evident that the intent is stricter SUI
pervision and to prevent wholesale
naturalizations just preceding an cleo
ton.
