An Empire to BE Conquered

The recent Elks excursion to the
| Black Hills afforded many their first
opportunity to study the country
west of the Missouri, and which cat
| tie men claimed was fit for no
purpose but grazing The thriving
towns, waving grain and comfortable
farm homes was evidence that the
cattle men had not been hewing close
to the line of truth. The exhibits of
vegetables and grain was evidence
that the country was as much adapt
ed to farming as Illinois, and that i'm
time it would support million pros
porous and happy people. AS one saw
the great expanse of green verdure,
the rnnning streams and bubbling
springs of every living water, they
could not help but be impressed with
the snap that cattle men had for
years as their stock roamed over
those millions Of acres of fine pasture,
without even string to bar their
way, and no expense attached for
past urage. 1t was the holding back
of these lands from public entry that
handicapped South Dakota in her
growth and placed the state twenty
five years behind i'm development.
But the lands are now in the hands
of the people and they will wrest from
the soil the golden grain which
should have been produced quarter
of century ago. There is a veritable
empire to be conquered, but those
who have settled down for the pur-
pose are sturdy lot and will stick
to the task which which will seem al
times discouragins, just as it was In
|conquering the Sioux valley, which
now holds it's land at 800 per acre.

Freeman Knowles, the Dead
wood editor who was fined $500
for sending obscene matters
through the mails, wanted to be a
martyr and declared that he would
die in Jail before he paid the fine.
He served thirty days, and then
found out that he couldn't take the
poor debtors oath, and escape the
fine that way, SO permitted his
friends to take up collection, and
pay the fine for him.

While the acreage was not very
large, still Stanley county has har.
vested crop of winter wheat
that was good one, the yield and
quality being very satisfactory.
Every kernel of the wheat that has
been threshed this year should re
main in the country, to be used for
the next crop. The growing of the
grain is not experimental in this
country. 1t is one of the best
things the farmers can SOW.

Seed Corn Day

We have had the best season fO
maturing corn early that we hav,
had for several years. Corn vii
be ripe September 10 this year
that some seasons would not get
ripe till the Goth or 10Th.
Corn that is not ripe September
10 this year should not be planted
in this state. The first question
we should always ask of an ear OF
seed corn is Twill you procure
corn that will fully mature!" The
next is will you grow"
1t is really more important that
we should gather seed corn early
season such rs we have had than
a more unfavorable season. Farm
ers naturally select the largest ears
for seed. Generally speaking they
are the largest in the field became
the last to get ripe; they grew
longer. If this is continued for a
series of years, the corn gradually
gets to maturing later.
August 2Sth this year we had
traces of frost in some parts of the
state. The writer has twice within
ten years seen the corn at Yankton
killed by frost, before Sept. 10.
We should always plant seed
corn that will an ordinary season
produce corn that will be out of
the way of frost by that time.
The only seed that will do this
Is the ears that are ripe by that
time or before, a season such as we
have just had.
Let us gather all the corn we can
Friday September 10 and Satur-
day the llth this year.
Select the cars that have pro-
duced the most corn that is ripe.
The type varies with different
varieties, but generally speaking.
these will be found to be ears
varying in length from not to ex-
ceed I inches in the north. and in
the higher attitudes, to the ear.
AS a rule the pointed ear has very
shallow kernels ncar1ti1e tip. Get
ears with the tips and butts as well
covered as you can.
Select ears from good strong
stalks, and that grow about the
height from the ground that you
prefer. The ears that drop over
are to be preferred to those that
stick up straight.
Don't pick more than can hang
up. Care it must have. The best
way we have seen to care for it
is to stretch some wires in the top
of the crib, or machine shed, any
place where there is plenty of dry
air, and a good roof. These must
be stretched tight. Then take a
piece of strong twine (binder twine
is good), about twelve feet long,
and tie the ends together. Slip
the hands through and straighten
out like you used to hold yarn to
be wound.
Holding the twine bring the
hands near together and let the
boy lay an ear of corn in the two
pieces of string. Catch this be-
tween your feet, slip che hand
through the string held in the
other hand, crossing the twine,
lay in another ear, cross again till
string is full. Then pull the string
in one hand on the tight wire by
use of a wire hook which you can
bend.
Before hard freezing weather,
put the corn in the attic, or some
place where it won't freeze. If
you haven't a place that won't
freeze, have a dry place, where
the temperature will be steady.
Don't hang over grain in a bin,
nor over stock, nor where there is
much moisture. One good ear will
plant a row 30 rods long.
Save the seed corn.

HORSE AND BUGGY BOUND

HORSE AND BUGGY FOUND A horse and buggy was found last evening three miles west and q quarter of a mile south Of Phoenix and brought to the Cowboy corral wacrc the owrer can secure the prop erty. Whether it was a rrnawav out fit or the horse had merely become united near where he was found was not learned. The horse is of a dun color with black mane and tail and black legs with white hind feet The running gear of the buggy is yellow and it has an umbrella top.
 GREAT WINDOW DISPLAYS The window display space in the new Noble. building will be spacious, and will excel anything in either of the two territories This is a wise move. for outside of newspaper campaign for the merchant there is nothing to compare with tasty window dis plays, changed often and dressed ar tistically. MT. Landslide, who is now in the employ of the New York store who has been connected with the largest department stores in the west in the capacity of card writer and window dresser, would not state that he would be given the window work for any of the firms who will occupy the Noble building, although 1t has been heralded from Los Angeles that this as the object of his coming to Phoenix at this time.

 SHOWED THE RESULTS-Sever- al young men are carrying arms in slings. and patched eyes, noses, and bumps, the results of free-for- all fight that took place in the redlight district Saturday night, in which several Mexicans became entangled In an argument refuted with fists, by several of the American young bloods.
 THE MOON A GOOD THING That the moon is on full strength, during the nights since the rains, is a good thing, for the reason that the bugs which gather and bother pe- destrians at the street corners where the arc lights are on, do not have a chance to congregate, for the lights are not a necessity when the moon furnishes the light.
 ANOTHER POSTAL - Another postal from Harry Mclean, the Hopi Indian Marathon runner, was re- Francisco. stating that he had chance to Timber up. and that pretty soon be sick" meaning of course that he will take the rest of the trip by boat Harry Mclean will have about ten days to rest and get acclimated before he runs.
 IN THE GREAT NORTHWEST Leon Bouvier. living on R. F. D. No. l, starts today for an extended trip in the great northwest. He will first spend d few days in San Francisco where he will visit old friends. going from there to Seattle where he will remain for two or three weeks at the exposition. From Seattle, Mir. Bouvier will go to Alberta. Canada. and on further north. perhaps to Alaska. before his return. He will be gone several months.
 HIS DEATH WAS SUDDEN-An inquest was held by Coroner John stone yesterday on the body of An tonic Delgado, who had died sud denly in the lower part of town.

 MOKI SNAKE DANCE-Some time during the next week the Moki Snake dance will take place at the village of Wapi, about fifty miles north of HOlbroOk. It has been known for some time that the dance would oc cur between the 18th and 30th of August. As nearly as can be defin itely learned the dance will occur on Wednesday, Aug. IS. That date will be the beginning of the festivities. These events are of great interest to those who study the character and the folk lore of the Indians and there are many who make the trip every time that the dance occurs. Cheap rates from this city to Hol- brook will be in effect to enable those interested to get to the dance and there will be conveyances at Holbrook which will take people to the scene of the celebration at a moderate cost Near the scene of the dance there are many points of interest, among them the petrified forest which may be visited at the same time with very little extra expense. eSf

BEAVERS STILL HAVE
FIGHTING CHANCE

San Francisco, oct. 1S.-The San
Francisco and Portland teams will
clash here tomorrow in the opening
game of a series, the outcome Of
which will have much to do with the
Pacific Coast league pennant.
If Portland is lucky enough to win
the series of seven games the Beav-
ers will only be one game behind the
Seals and will have an outside chance
to "cop" the bunting.
In order to clinch the pennant the
San Francisco aggregation will have
to win six out of the II remaining
games This includes the series with
the Beavers. If the Seals should lose
eight games and the Portland bunch
should win the remaining games
scheduled they would win the pen
nant by a slight margin.
From san Francisco the Beavers
go to Los Angeles, where they will
play seven games and wind up the
season. While Portland is fighting it
out with the Angels the Seals will be
battling here with the cellar cham
pions. Vernon.
Even IL the Beavers should trim the
Seals to the tune of seven straight
games, San Francisco by winning six
out of seven games from Vernon
would still nose out the Beavers for
the rag.

TIPS THAT SAVE STEPS.

The best dustcloths are made Of
old slIkaline.
Grass stains may be removed by
cream of tartar and water.
Scotch snuff put in holes where
crickets come out will destroy them.
Salt on the fingers when cleaning
fowls, meat or fish, will prevent slip
ping.
To clean aluminium. wash with
strong soapsuds with a little ammo
mia and soda.
Mustard water is useful to clean
the hands after handling any odor-
GUS substance.
A few drops of oil of cloves added
to paste will prevent the latter from
turning sour.
For blood stains use cold water first
then soap and water, Never use hot
water, as 1t sets the stain.
Wood ashes put in a woolen bag
and placed in the water is a simple
means for making hard water soft
for washing.
Yellow soap and whiting, mixed to
a stiff paste with a little water will
stop a leak in the pipes as quickly as
solder.
Use vinegar instead of water for
mixing your stove polish this will
make it stick much better and will
also give a better polish.

then they wonder what makes the
kernels so hard. Try leaving the salt
out and see II that doesn't fix the

Soaking the hands above the wrists
in hot water will sometimes relieve
a headache I found this out while
washing dishes and clothes when my
head was aching. Keep the feet warm
at the same time.
Sheets and long table-cloths are
bad things to take from the boiler
to the tub on washdays. Did you
ever think OF looping them up in a
big loose knot before placing them
into the boiler? Try that and see

PEARY'S NEGRO GIVES
FIRST PUBLIC LECTURE

New York, Oct. 1S.-The first lee
ture given by Matthew A. Henson.
who accompanied Commander r. E.
Peary on his recent polar expedition,
was marred by the fact that Com
mander Peary, at the last moment,
had ordered him not to use photo
graphs which had been taken on the
trip. Henson took 1O2 pictures him
self and, on his arrival here, gave
them to the director of the American
Museum and Natural history, who
transformed them into lantern slides.
At the last moment Mr.. Peary in
structed the museum director not to
turn the slides over to Henson until
he (Peary) had examined them. The
director followed Peary's order.
There were many Cook sympathiz-
ers in the audience and the negro lee
turer was questioned closely on many
points. Henson declared frequently
throughout his lecture that Cook
could not have reached the north
pole, and it is said that he will repeat
these statements in the lectures which
he will give in other cities through
out the country.
