GODS crops have been harvested in
South Dakota for = number OF years;
III fact we have had but few poor crops
since the country was settled. Our
farmers have prospered greatly and we
hope they will continue to do SO. Here's
hoping that 1908 may pc the most sue

CURRENT COMMENTS.
From South Dakota State Review.

From South Dakota State Review.
Last week the Rapid City Journal
published the following excerpts from
a letter sent it by newcomer:
"And speaking about boosting If
you want to see crop this fall that
will make Michigan peach orchard
look like Death Valley, just get your
eyes on Hart Table. And say! Lis
ten! When it comes to farming there's
a bunch of homesteaders that have
Luther Burbank looking like an amaze.
mic flat dweller in the Ghetto district
and you can take it from me that if
they ever get a good heavy dew this
summer they will bring crop that will
make father swap the homestead back
in Iowa for gallon of hard cider and
do hot foot race west for this great
and glorious county Of Pennington
and that's no pipe dream either.''
The above is a fair exam ole of Just
the way every new conner feels in any
portion of the state He is filled with
enthusiasm and hopefulness because of
the unlimited opportunities he sees be-
fore him. And the question naturally
arises, perhaps to our detriment, why
the cold timers do not enthuse in like
manner? The answer is simple: be-
cause the new arrival is alive to the
opportunities while the other class
have been dead in their shells for years
As a general rule, they wouldn't recog-
nize an opportunity if it hit them with
club. The newcomer has come from
a country where land is no better-and
in many cases not as good-as is our
own and can appreciate. The old timer
doesn't want to believe it is good and
wouldn't know good land if it ran up
and bit him.
And in nine cases out of ten, the rea
son for the cold timers" pessimlsm can
be found in the following from the
Miller Sun:
"The joke now seems to be on the
old settlers who few years ago sold
their land to new homeseekers at a
price they thought was so high that the
new man would soon become tliscour-
aged and leave this country. 1t turns
out that the land has been increasing
III value ever since the strangers bought
