What Might Be

1t is very apparent to one riding
over the country that there is a
very limited amount of the tillabIe
land in cultivation. Someone men
toned the fact to US the other day
he was an easterner, of course,
but man of reason and not of
ridicule. Now" he says, If this
land will produce an average of
twenty bushels of wheat to the
acre, and thirty to fifty bushels of

What this county and all other
counties of western South Dakota
wants is more people. We must
have more people-good farmers
and conscientious workers with
heads and hands. This talk that
you sometimes hear that a man
out here must operate a section OF
two of land in order to make il
pay is all bosh. There is no fear OF
our overstocking yet for good
many years. There is plenty OF
work for all and energy intelligent.
~ applied will bring results. In
the east people are crying fol
work, in the west we are crying
for workers. The normal adjust
ment of conditions will, no doubt,
come in time, but it takes a long
time. Time costs money, and those
who cannot see an opportunity
exists are the ones who are out the
cost. .-Pukwana Press.

j. d. Elliott, of Tyndall, who
has achieved considerable motor
iety about the state as a champion
and leader in the progressive
movement, has become general
counsel for the Milwaukee in the
two Dakotas. Perhaps nothing Pc
culiar about that, but will he
stand as high in the estimation of
his political workers, who have
heretofore considered a railroad
attorney as nothing better than an
outcast from sheOl!

Chester Slaughter, president of
one of the Dallas banks, and Gus
G. Lamro, sheriff of Tripp countp,
arrived in Philip Sunday evening,
having made the trip from Dallas
since morning in Mr.. Slaughter's
fine steam-driven automobile. E.
f. Hughes, a Kadoka land man.
piloted them over from that city.
The gentlemen came to Philip
after K. NJ. Labo, who was arrest
ed by Marshal Claude Ramsey Sat
urday on information filed by Mr..
Slaughter, charging him with i'm
bezzlement. Mr.. Ramsey turned
him over to the Tripp county Off
Ger, and the party left Monday ev-
ening, expecting to reach Dallas,
nearly 175 miles southeast, in the
evening.
The man under arrest came here
some weeks ago from Lamro, and
has been engaged in freighting and
teaming work, using an outfit that
he drove into the country with.
Mr. Slaughter claims that the
team, harnesses and wagon is his
property, he having bill of sale
for the outfit, and that he had
loaned it to Labo, who in return
had given the bank series of notes
and that title was not to pass un-
til the notes had been paid. The
property, it is claimed, was re-
moved from Tripp county with
out permission of the bank officials.

more intensive farming will take
their place. Where ranged the i'm
mense herds. summer and winter,
will be scores CT small herds, hun
dreds of miles of fence, thousands
of stacks of alfalfa and prairie hay,
and thousands of acres of as good
corn fodder as America affords,
and no annual loss by starvation of
thousands of poor cattle.
Who is so bold as to say that
cattle will not be grown where
this can be done! They will be
grown, and grown in greater num-

If the men who founded the ma
tiOnal government were to choose
the national colors today, they
would no doubt choose the yellow
of corn, the white of cotton, and
the green of alfalfa and clover.
These colors symbolic the great
leading agricultural products on
which the prosperity of the nation
depends. The corn, cotton, wheat
and hay crops are the nations an

In commenting on the carnival
of hi jinks" at Draper Halloween
eve, the Democrat says, 'The
same amount of energy required

have stacked a 4O-acre field of oats,
macadamized our streets, built a
fence around the park and planted
shade trees on every vacant lot.

The marital troubles of the Gas
ton family at Marietta gained
some notoriety some months ago
by the arrest of Castor on the
charge of beating his wife, and his
trial and conviction before a JUS
tice at the county seat. The couple
finally agreed to separation and
the wife secured a bill of divorce.
The children remained with their
mother, but to this the father OBJ
jected. So one day last week, be-
tween two days, he induced the
Oldest son, Lloyd, to leave with
him. The mother was informed
shortly after their departure,
through a letter posted on the
train, that they had left for good,
and the next time she saw Lloyd
he would have whiskers on his
face.

was not strong enough to make =

stopped and the car commenced to
gobackwards at a lively rate before
it could be controlled. This happen
ed twice. The third effort was
successful however and the return
trip was made without any mis-
han in two hours.-Midland Star.
