NEW TITLE. FOR
MARRIED MEN

Chicago, Feb. 20.-What kind of
a title should married men bear?
State Senator Samuel A. Ettelson
has been approached by many un-
married women, who say married
men are constantly imposing on them
because it is impossible from plain
introduction Of "Mister' to tell
whether they are married or not.
Senator Ettelson is considering the
matter of introducing a bill to settle
the question.
"The man ought to be segregat-
ed" said ne. IAN unmarried woman
is Miss married woman Mrs.
That arrangement is highly satisfac-
tory. Now, if the thing works one
way, why won't it work the other?
Let US differentiate between the
benedicts and the bachelors. Let US
make it felony for a married man
to use a bachelors title. 1t will
abolish at once all the married flirts. !"

Milwaukee's Big Tunnel

Spokane, Wash, Feb. 20. World S
records in tunnel driving was estab-
lished and one of the greatest engi-
neering featS of the century was
successfully completed when the
driIlmen in Idaho and Montana,
working in the Chicago, Milwaukee
& Pudget Sound Railway company S
bore in the BitterRoot mountains at
Taft. Mont, shook hands at the end
of a crowbar. The Tunnel, 8,75l
feet in length, "a feet three inches
in height, and Il feet six inches
across the floor, lacked only 1900 of
an inch of being in true alignment,
while in level the two crews of IT'S
men each, differed about l-100 of a
foot when the wall of rock between
the two states was pierced. The
best record was made in January,
1909, when 756 feet were driven, the
figures for November. 1908, being
73l feet 5 inches.
Work was started November 6,
1906, but was abandoned by the first
contractor. Winston Brothers of
Missoula, Mont, took charge April
/, 1907, pushing the work without
intermlssion. Drills driven bv COM
pressed air were used. Interest in
creased with the progress of the
bore and there was much good-nat-
ured rivalry between the crews as to
which drill would make the first
penetration. Idaho scored. 1t was
the end of long months of effort.
As quickly as the drill was with
drawn, a crowbar was showed into
the aperature and the Montana men
"shook hands" with their successful
rivals and congratulated them on
their triumph. ...

DRY FARMING
IN HAND COUNTY
q. II. Carroll Gives His Expert
ence In New Methods at Dry
Farming Congress

Cheyenne, Wyo., Feb. ia
glimpse of the opportunities the
west offers to hOmeseekerS is given
by report filed with Secretary John
T. Burns of the board of control of
the third Trans Missouri Dry Farm
ing Congress, which will convene at
Cheyenne for a three days session
Feb. %. G.. Fl. Carroll Of Miller,
Hand county, S. D., prominent
agriculturist who is an advocate of
dry farming methods, having proved
their value on his ranch, and who is
expected to attend the sessions of
the coming congress as a delegate
makes the report.
Hand county contains about l.
100000 acres, practically all classi-
fled as dry land, One-fourth of this
large tract has been brought under
cultivation by the methods of arid
land farming. Mr. Carroll says the
entire county, or 100000 addltiodal
acres, could be developed If dry
farming principals are applied con-
scientiously and extensive cultivation
is practiced.
The average rain fall as shown by
the records for the last ten years. is
twenty inches. The greater part of
this precipitation fails during the
five months, April to August, inclus-
i've.
Mr. Carroll reports that ordinary
varieties of wheat weld 5 to 20 bush
els to the acre durum wheat gives
10 to 30 bushels, spelts 20 to 40
bushels, oats Is to so bushels, bar
ley Is to 40 bushels, corn 5 to 80
bushels. Only a few farmers are
raising potatoes, but yields of 25 to
100 bushels an acre have been re-
ported.
Land values in this region have
advanced in the last five years from
S. to $40 an acre to 500 to $50. This
may be attributed largely to the
demonstration of the agricultural
possibilities of the country since the
application of dry farming methods.
Mr. Carroll recommends alternat-
ing corn and small grains.
"Plow deep in the spring." he
says, land plant corn. The next
year cultivate the corn ground, TAX
ing care to thoroughly pulverize it,
and plant wheat, oats or barley" "
This is the method he has used and
he says the results have been very
satisfactory to him.

Advertise South Dakota

FaulktOn Advocate. The value of
persistent advertising was never
more plainly shown than III the Can
adian northwest where the govern
ment, and railroads in conjunction,
last year spent over two million of
dollars in attracting the attention of
the settlers. The wisdom of this
expenditure has been shown by the
results attained. Last year over
1000 people crossed the border, re-
nounced their American citizenship,
and became residents .of the Cana
dian northwest. Many of the set
tiers were from the DakotaS and
Minnesota a much better country in
every way to live in than the one
they have gone to and many of them
will be travelling the back track in
the next year, wiser, but poorer peo-
pie. These results have been OBJ
tained by Canada by persistent ad-
vertising and while we don't expect
South Dakota to spend million on
her immigration bureau this year,
we would like to see it put upon a
solid basis with enough money ap-
propriated to give it home of it's
own, which is now wherever the sec
retary hangs up his hat. Probably
5000 people left this state last year
in response to the attractive adver-
tising done by the Canadian govern
ment and railroads. They were
nearly all persons of some means and
if each only possessed $1,000 it am
mounts in the aggregate to the large
sum of S., 900, 900 taken direct from
the state in addition to the increased
immigration which we should natu-
rally attract were we sufficiently ad-
vertised. We appropriate $4,000 a
year. North Dakota appropriates
$50, 900, Canada sl,OOO,OOO and the
results show.

FINDS MANY NEW
KINDS OF ALFALFA
Prof. Hansen, of South Dakota,
Returns From Trip to Asia
For Uncle Sam

Washington, Feb. 22.-Niels Ebps-
sen Hansen, who is professor of hor-
ticulture at the state college of agri-
culture, Brookings, S. D.. and chief
plant explorer for the department
of agriculture at Washington, has
just returned from his third jour
ney into northern Asia, bringing
back three hundred varieties of Arc
tic alfalfa, clover that will grow
through ice and a grape that is suit
able to the semi, arid regions of this
country. Mr. Hansen is the man
who brought alfalfa to the settlers
of the west and made farming in
certain areas of that section produc-
tive and prosperous.
Finds 800 Varieties
Professor Hansen was in quest of
new varieties of alfalfa and clover
and brought back with him more
than 300 varieties which he gather
ed. Two of these he secured in a
section of Siberia, where the mer-
curry freezes and there is no snow,
and with them he will conduct eX-
periments in northwestern states.
He has spent several years hunting
through ancient and far-Off coun-
tries for useful plants, grains and
fruits that we do not have in this
country. but that are suitable to the
climate of our northern latitudes
and will furnish our farmers with
greater opportunities to diversity
their crops and practice a rotation
which will not exhaust the soil.
Prof. Hansen has explored Russia,
Siberia. TurkeStan, Mongolia, Man
churia, western China, Japan, Trans
Caucasia, Persia, Lapland, Finland
and other countries in search of
plant life that will endure the cold
climate of our northern border and
flourish in the dry air of the semi
arid regions of the west, and has
been remarkably successful.

CO-EduCatiOn

Out in Minnesota there is a great

some eight hundred young men and

MAGAZINE. Then when these Young
men and young women have finished
with their books and school work.
having paired off, they marry and
go on studying, working and-there
is no room to doubt it-loving. The
postgraduate, postnuptial histories
of the lives of those who have gone
out from the school are all records
of contentment and happiness. A
school which leads to such results
may in truth be called a brilliant
matchmaker.
There is another great school in
Iowa like that in Minnesota. in South
Dakota another, in North Dakota
another, and in other Western states
still others.
The authorities of these schools
look upon the matchmaking tenden-
cies of their system not with anxiety
and alarm, but with approval, as
something to be encouraged and not
discouraged, and the experience of
years has shown that in this they are
very wise.

ROOSEVELT IN
THE WILDERNESS
Party Leaves For Interior of Af-
RIGA About March Is

Washington, Feb. 22.-Theodore
Roosevelt, fifty years of age. having
on March a, with his retirement as
twenty-sixth president of the United
States, completed twenty-five years
of public service, has decided to take
rest and recreation in a two-years'
trip abroad, half of which will be
spent in Africa under the Britt
flag as fauna naturalist and the
other half in Europe visiting at least
three of the big capitals. At the
head of a scientific expedition out
fitted by the Smithsonian Institution
of Washington, he will, with his son,
Kermit, and three American natur-
alists of note-Major Edgar A.
Means, J. Loring Alden and Edmond
Heller-make a collection of man.
mails. birds, reptiles, insects. and bo-
tanical specimens of Central Africa,
which will be deposited in the Unit
. ed States National Museum at
Washington
Start In March
The party leave New York city
about the middle of March, going by
the Mediterranean route to GibraI-
ter and Naples. At Naples the
members of the expedition will board
steamer of the German East Afri-
can line for KiIindini harbor, Nom
bosa island. They will arrive at the
East African port toward the end of
April, proceed by the Uganda rail
way to Nairobi, spend six months
there, then continue by rail to Port
Florence, Lake Victoria Nyanza,
making total distance of 584 miles
by rail. The expedition will cross
Uganda by caravan, and. finally pass
down the whole length of the Nile,
reaching Khartoum about April,
1910. Much of the hunting and
specimen collecting will be done in
British East Africa, where the Ugan-
da railway will be used as the means
of ready transportation from Nairo-
bi, which will be the base of supplies.
At Khartoum, it is expected, the
president and his son will be joined
by Mrs Roosevelt, who will accom-
pany them on their trip to Europe.
