Now that Uncle Sam has walked up,
the rascals are getting afraid Of him,
and they are trying to halter him by
having Congress pass what is known
as the Crumpacker bill, the title of
which should be "a bill to promote
fraud and rascality," which has been
sneaked through the house by the
grace Of the speaker to curry favor
with a coterie in his own state. viii
our readers not write to their SEN
ators, to see that no halter goes on
Uncle Sam, and that he be not bur-
dened down by the devices of the IN
godly and made a partner in iniquity?
Will our readers not go to the aid
OF our poor old, long-sufrering, bur-
d~en-bearing friend and peremptorily
order stopped all papers that they do
not want; and, inasmuch as they are
not paupers, refuse to be patronized
by the present Of a paper for which
they have not subscribed? Will they
not be wise hereafter and quit loading
Uncle Sam down by buying papers at
a normal price, and confine them
selves to papers that Uncle Sam is de-
lighted to carry, published for the
purpose of disseminating useful in
formation, incidentally making hon
est money, and that stop when the
time is out?-W allaces' Farmer.

Corn CONTEST ITEMS.

The highest scores of the four lead
ing townships in the corn contest
were:
Canton township six highest 53s
Elder township six highest 53l
Highland township six highest 800
Lincoln township six highest 4SS
Glass B. J. w. Bremen won sweep
stakes which included Sl2 cash and
100 lbs of graduated sugar; Chris
Braithwaite End prize So, G.. A. Mil
lett 3rd prize So
Glass G. Chris Braithwaite sweep
stakes and 81, M. O. Nicholson Ind
prize $3; f. ID. Warner, 3rd prize 50.
There are a number of prizes in the
LEADER office waiting for owners
The corn exhibit for 1907 will pass
into history as the best county dis
play eyer seen in the entire north
west. Prof. Morrison n Of the best
corn experts in Iowa, was both sur
prised and pleased. He has seer moth
ing in Iowa to surpass u exhibit,
and that's saying a great deal.
When it came to awarding prizes
according to the score there were
many ties. Six of the boys tied on
the bacon prize, but a knife settled
the division, and the bacon winners
went home with something for sup
per.
1t was amusing to hear the local
corn experts pass opinion on the one
ear exhibit. Some picked one ear and
some another as the winner, but none
were willing to go on record as pick
ing the winner.
There were a great many good farm
ers present during the corn contest
who intended to bring in samples but
well they forgot.

The Temperance Cause.

Rev. Walter M. Grafton, Superin-
tendent of the State Anti-Saloon
League, spoke in the Court House
last Sunday evening to a large and
~appreciative audience.
After speaking for some time OF a
united effort all along the line, of the
responsibility that rests upon the vot-
er, he m~arshalled an array of facts
that were eye-openefs to most of the
hearers. He showed in a very rapid
portrayal something of the advance
ment made by the omnipartisan meth
DDS of the Anti-Saloon League. He
told of the progress being made in
the various states and pictured as
follows:
Alabama: two thirds dry.
Arkansas: ffty-seven dry counties.
Connecticut: fifty-five per cent of
territory dry.
Florida: thirty-eight dry counties
only seven wet.
Georgia: one hundred twenty dry
counties.
Indiana sixty-fve per cent of ter
ritory dry.
Kentucky ninty-nine dry counties.
Louisiana e%ighty-five per cent of
territory dry.
Maryland: sixty-five per cent of
territory dry.
Massachusetts: two hundred forty
dry towns to one hundred with sa-
looms.
Missouri: forty one counties dry.
Mississippi: sixty-fye dry counties.
Minnesota: one dry county and one
hundred t~wenty-three dry Villages.
Nebraska: forty per cent of terri
tory dry.
Ohio: eighty per cent of territory
dry sixty-eight per cent of the munic-
qualities dry.
Rhode Island; forty per cent of
territory dry.
Tennessee: only fourteen towns
and cities have saloons.
Texas: one hundred %fifty-seven dry
counties.
Vermont: ninty per cent of terri
tory dry.
Virginia. seventy-three counties
dry.
West Virginia: thirty-two coun-
ties dry.
Wisconsin,: six hundred and nine
dry municipalities.
The saloon has been abolished sec
tion by section, from a township, a
county, a village, q city, with an oc-
casional state, until more than 733
millions of the "a millions OF the pop
ulation of the United States live in
territory where the saloon is not per-
mitted to exist.

TEST YOUR SEED CORN.
Delay Is Dangerous.

The following item from a Miller
Hand comfy, correspondent OF the
Sioux City Journal will serve for a
text on testing seed corn:
A test OF seed corn here by George
Jefferson develops the important fact
that only about one grain in a thou.
sand will terminate. The trouble is
because of late warm weather and
rains, which left the corn full OF
moisture when the frost came, al
though the ears appeared to be ripe
and the yield was good. Others re-
port similar Gees in testing. Corn
OF the previous years raising Will be
in demand for planting.
All corn growers in South Dakota
must face this unusual condition and
prepare as far rs possible TO overcome
the difficulty. The Leader has called
attention to this matter before thru
information received from a. }.
Wimple of Brooklyn township. Mr..
Wimp!e secured considerable seed be-
fore the first freeze and this corn is
in good condition, and all others who
selected their seed before the hrSt
freeze may consider themselves fortu-
nate.
The question Of going back to the
corn supply raised in 1905, may be
well worth considering, and those
who have a supply of that years corn
may be able to overcome the present
unfortunate condition.
Corn selected for seed before the
first freeze may be all right, but a
careful test should be made from
every ear, but corn picked for seed
after that fresze is, as a rule, germ
less, and no farmer should plant such
corn unless he makes a complete test.
Every progressive farmer or renter
should not require a second notice
concerning this vital question. lie
should test his corn and he should DO
it now. If you can't do it to-day pre-
pare to do it tomorrow. 1T requires
no scientific process. Every farmer
knows how to prepare a testing pan,
and you all know that spring is com
ing along with rapid strides. When
spring work begins most OF the farm
ers are too busy to give seed COIN pro-
per consideration, hence the time to
look after seed corr is now.
The LEADER has no desire to keep
urging a plain duty upon men who
have so much at stake in the matter
of good seed corn, but from past eX-
p%erience we know chat many farmers,
year after year, neglected this work
until it was everlasting too late.
The farmer who wants a vigorous
bearing stalk in every hill will pre-
pare to secure this result. One good
ear from every hill will produce so
bushels to the acre. An average OF
one ear and a half to every hill would
make rs bushels, and it costs just as
much to cultivate a barren hill as it
does a hill with good ears for the
husker. It's the barren hills that
make a small yield per acre, and poor
seed makes barren hills and a loss of
time and money.
No farmer wants this condition and
the only way to prevent it is to test
your corn.

LICENSE BOARD
AND BLIND PIGS
These UnruIy Beasts to Be
Tackled on Their Blind
Side.

The Board of License Commissioners
will tackle the ''blind Pig PROPOSE
ton. Apparently their plan is TO
come up to the blind pigs on their
blind side.
The Board has issued invitations to
the wholesale dealers of the island to
meet it in a conference on the sub
ject, next Friday afternoon at four
o clock The Board is acting on the
theory that the owners and managers
of the ''blind pigs must buy their
liquor somewhere-presmm of the
wholesale dealers. Therefore the whole
sale dealers must be in a position to
know, if not absolutely, at least suffi-
GENTLY to make a very shrewd guess as
to who own the "blind pig' ranches.
Therefore, if the wholesalers, in a
spirit of public service, or selishly con-
sulting their own interests-from the
license side of the question-wil join
hands with the License Board, they can
simply circle round the "blind pigs
and corral them.
All persons holding wholesale IL
censes are requested not to forget the
date and place-the Throne Room of
the Capitol, Friday afternoon at four
o clock. Meanwhile the members of
the License Board will see Governor
Frear and speak to him about filling
the vacancy caused by the resignation
of A. J. Campbell so that there will be
a full board to welcome the visitors.
