The voting in the city has been
somewhat slow today, and, unless the
number was greatly increased after
three o'clock, the result will show a
much lighter vote than the number
of poll taxes paid in the city would
warrant. 1t was impossible to ascer-
tain, of course, before the polls closed
how the result stood. 1t is generally
believed, however. that the election
for county offices viii be close. A
tour of the various wards at three
O'Clock this afternoon showed that
the vote cast up to that time in the
various wards was as follows:
LIST ward. 244; End ward 16S;
Bird ward ia; 4th ward 14S. Total
7O4 votes.
The number of paid poll taxes paid
in the city are 1885, which, of course
does not include the exemptions, or
those over the age limit. These poll
taxes are divided in the various
wards as follows: 1st ward 1926; I'd
ward 324; 3rd ward IA; 4th ward
262.

TO KILL
Sulphate Of Iron Destroys Weeds and
Largely Increases Crop Yield

The determination of wild mustard
from farm crops has been the subject
of experiment by the United States
experiment stations in the Dakotas
and Minnesota for several years and
the problem has been solved. Mus
tard is one of the greatest pests of the
small grain farmer, and it has been
fonud that it can be killed in the
growing fields of grain by spraying.
A solution of sulphate of iron is used
the cost being about $3.50 per acre
for the material. Oats has been
found to yield almost twice as much
on sprayed land as on land that had
not been treated. Not only the mus
tard, but other weeds were killed alb
solutely by the treatment. Flax
thrives on the sulphate solution, while
the mustard and other weeds are
killed. The sprayed portions of the
fields experimental upon being pure
crop, while unsprayed portions were
a dense mass of yellow blossoms, the
flax being crowded out and the crop
cut in half. The treatment has been
thoroughly tested and has reached
the commercial stage. Spraying ma
chimes are now being made for the
purpose, and the crops wherever the
method has been tried increased so
as to pay the entire cost of the ma
chimes, of the solution and the time
spent, and pay a handsome dividend
in addition in one year. The super
iority of the seed, the betterment of
the land and the surety of increased
crops in subsequent years make an
investment in the solution and the

CAPTAIN WATSON KILLED.

The saddest accident in the history
of the college occurred Friday after

a ten-foot wall with fixed %bayOnets
and Watson was the last man over

and one OF his comrades seeing a rifle
leaning against the wall started to re-
move il when Watson let go Of his hold

that he was badly hurt. as he walked

and reported that he was wounded.
He was Immediately removed to the
hospital, a block west, where it was
found that the bayonet had torn a
bad cash in the leg and entering the
body had punctured the bladder.
Everything possible was done for him
and at first it was thought that he
would recover, but he grew steadily
worse and passed away at three

His parents, who live in Mitchell,
were notified of the accident at once,
but it was not possible for them TO

and he arrived here Saturday evening
and assisted in the care of the patient.

the San Bernardino California Daily
Sun tells of the wedding of Clarence
Allison son of Mr.. and Mrs. w. ID.

The announcementof Mr.. and Mrs.

the approaching marriage Of their
daughter, Miss Minnie Rogers, to Mr..
James Clarence Allison, a well-known
and popular Santa Fee conductor, will
release the few intimate friends who
have been in the secret, from their
pledge of silence, and while coming as
a surprise to many of the host of
friends of the handsome bride to be

of congratulations and good wishes
will be all the more general and en-
phatic.
For the bride is a native daughter

deared her to all whom she has been

GREEN FORAGE FOR SWINE.

A very timely bulletin has just been
issued by the Missouri Experiment
Station by Dean II. j. Waters, giving
some results of some very valuable
experiments in determining the food
value of different forage crops for
hogs.
Ihlrty-SiX pigs weighing about 80
pOunds each We're fed in lots on diff
terent forage crops in connection with
corn until they are fitted for market.
Accurate accoun being kept of the
cost OF gains made.
In cheapness of gains the foods
ranked as follows: Corn and skim
milk, We're found the cheapest; corn
and alfalfa second; corn and red clov-
er third; corn and blue grass fourth:
corn and rape fifth; corn and ship
stuff sixth.
A saving of about IS cents per hun
dred in thee ost of gain was effected
by using green clover instead of fresh
blue grass.
A saving of s1.O0 per hundred was
found by using alfalfa instead Of blue
grass.
When it is taken in consideration
that alfalfa on early and when
properly clipped stays green all sum-
mer and until hard freezes of early
winter, its Importance as a hog pas
ture is apparent. Glover yields more
forage per acre than blue grass. and
as shown by these experiments has a
much higher feeding value. 1t is of
the utmost importance therefore to
provide this sort of pasture for hogs
rather than to require them to run on
blue grass pasture. or even worse thar
blue grass, a timothy pasture, or even
worse than this, to cOnfine them in a
dry lot in the summer time.
This bulletin recommends a success
sion of crops for profitable hog pas
lures. The bulletin is for free distri-
button and is of great value to those
interested in hogs. Address the

POND-M EEK

4 very pretty wedding occurred at the
home Of Mr.and Mrs. Frank Pond in
this city at 500 o'clock last evening
when their eldest daughter, Florence,
became the bride OF Mr.. J. b. Meek,
in the presence of a number of invited
friends and relatives. Rev. ]. a. Sea
ton performed the ceremony after
which a wedding reception was held
and many friends of the bride were
given an opportunity to extend con
gratulat!ons to the happy couple.
During the reception ice cream and
cake was served in the dining room
by Mesdames T. c. Akin and John
Johnson. Misses Ruby Pond and Won
da Hall acting as Mattresses.
The brides gown was of chiffon
foullard with pointed Venice lace Per
sian style and she carried lilies of
the valley. The house was modestly
decorated with CARNATIONS, snOwballs
and bridal wreath.
Florence has grown from childhood
in Brookings and it is doubtful if
there is another young person in the
city having formed more warm and
lasting friendships. Educated, refin-
ed and possessing natural accomplish
ments she has grown into the hearts
of her friends who are 10th to have
Florence claimed by anyone but the
home folk. Having taught in the
local schools and more recently ac-
ceptably filled a position in the Aber-
deem Normal a wide acquaintance has
been cultivated and the esteem in
which the bride is held here where
she is best known has broadened state
wide. This esteem was made manifest
by the many beautiful presents which
We're received.
The groom is a stranger in this
city, being the travelling representa-
tive of Julian & Kokenye. manufac-
turers of ladies shoes, Cincinnati, o.,
and Judging from the numerous con-
gratulatOry kilograms received it is
taken that he is popular among his
wide acquaintance, and truly he is
to be congratulated.
> Among those present from a dis
lance were Mr.. and Mrs. Notmeyer
of Pierre. cousins of the bride and
Miss Meek of Cincinnati, Ohio. sister
of the room.
Mr.. and Mrs. Meek departed on the
1l:25 evening passenger train for
Cincinnati where they may reside,
though they have not yet fully de-
cided.
