What helps Stanley county helps
M the country west Of the Missouri.
The new settlers are doing their
BART to improve the country, and
experiments like the above viii do
much to show just what may be ex-
spected by others.
Fair to be a Hummer. 3
The initial steps leading to the or
ganization of district fair associ-
alton at Kodoka have been taken
an dno doubt remains as to the ul-
innate success of the undertaking.
The plan is to organize a stock COM
pany and place the snares at $40
each. The committee has been at
work and $120 shares have been dis
posed of to six different men as a
starter. The Kodoka fair is to be
be q hummer and nothing Is to be
spared to give every visitor a good
time. The plan is to purchase the
forty acre tract just east of the rail-
road of Nat Stevenson. This will
make an ideal fair grounds and q
place for future fairs and entertain
ments Of every nature in our town.
1t is a good proposition and should
be pushed along. Press.
That is the way to do business.
Get right to work and push things.
Kadoka showed up some fine vege-
tables last fall and will do SO again
this year.
Must Drill Deeper.
Norbeck & Nicholson, the artesian
well drillers of Redfield, have secur-
ed flowing we'll at Lacy, IN the
northeast part of Stanley county on
the high prairie, proving conclusive
ly that artesian wells can be secured
at practically any point ON the high
ground between the Missouri and the
Hills, unless it might be on some
of the hight buttes. With this as
they have contracted for another
well at Sorenson's ranch at the head
of Willow creek. And a number Of
flowing wells will be sunk through
out the county within the next few
years-iPhilip Review.
1T is sure thing that artesian
water can he secured at many points
between the Black Hills and the Mis-
souri,, but SO far the flow has not
been as great as in eastern Dakota.
This is probably because the wells
have not been bored deep enough.
Experience will show, and the wells
will eventually be a great thing for
the section OF the country between
the Cheyenne and Missouri rivers.
