WATERFOWL is having the expert
ence of seeing saloonnen hauled up
for opening up their places of bus
mess after regular hours. From
our acquaintance with Watertown S
chief of police we would suggest
that if John keegan tells them that
their saloons must remain locked |
between certain hours, they had
better see that the aforesaid doors
remain closed, else there will be
something doing, Clark Republic

The girl who works. She is not
too proud to earn her own living
or ashamed to be caught at her
daily task. She smiles at you from
behind counter or desk. 1t is an
honor to know this girl, to be
worthy OF her regard Her hands
may be stained by dish washing,
sweeping, factory grease or printers
ink, but it is an honest and helping
hand. 1t stays misfortune from
homes; it is our shield which pro-
tects many a forlorn little family
from misery

of the business people of the place.

The report of damage to- the crops
in North Dakota and in other por-
lions of the northwest was the
cause of a decided advance in price
during the past ten days and as a
result large amount of grain has
been marketed by the farmers in
| this neighborhood. Present indie
ations are that there will be a
shortage in the grain crop this year
again and that good prices will be
paid for all grain marketed during
the coming season The outlook
at the present time is that a good
crop will be harvested in this por-
ton of the country and that salts
factory prices will be secured for
: it. r.
South Dakota is again in the
midst of a great harvest and every
interest in the state, large and
small, is deeply concerned in the
outcome. If the wishes and good
will of the thousands of the state
z count for anything, the farmer will
gather in this bountiful harvest
with no untoward hindrance Of
storm or flood, of blight or rust.
Never in the history Of agriculture
in the northwest has there been a
brighter prospect for large yield
of all kinds of grain and this, in
connection with the high prices Of
all farm products, promises that
the South Dakota farmer in 1908

,1So far has the harvest advanced
i that success in reaping this gener-
q Gus yield is almost assured All

Elating effects of such splendid pros
Epects. Machinery dealers are busy
: putting out threshing outfits and
making numerous sales of smaller

farm. Merchants are buying gem

: IN evidence on every hand, such
conservatism has given way to the
Il highest optimism. Especially is

sIthing can interfere for a long time
