best looking catalogue the college has

During the storm Monday afternoon
a heavy wind destroyed the barn and
sheep sheds on E. H. Williams farm

the barn and carried it over fifty feet
and threw it against the sheep

wind also raised the house and moved
it a few inches on the foundation. Mr..
Williams was at the farm at the time

WOULD BUILD STATE ROAD.

j. w. Parmley, of Ipswich, n of
the enthusiastic good roads men of the
state, advocates the building of high
ways across the state. He says:
II would favor a movement to at
once build a great highway across
the state. If the proper organization
was effected it would be possible TO
have two great state roads, through
this beautiful city-one starting at
Flandreau, paralleling the Milwaukee
to washington Springs, then on
through Jerauld and Buffalo counties
to Crow Creek. How would | do ii
under present laws-let Flandreau
build from the state line to a point
where Egan becomes responsible for
the work. Egan would pass it on to
Coleman. Wentworth and Madison,
then Howard, Villas and Artesian
would hurry 1t along toward Woon-
socket and you would soon have II in
washington Springs. l would give
this road and every other important
road a name, and in this year OF our
Lord no name presents itself more
promptly than Lincoln. a fit and last
ing monument for the great eman.
cipator.
THE other road would be from the
North Dakota line through Aberdeen
Redheld, Woonsocket and Mitchell,
these radiating to Chamberlain on the
West. Trip. Yanktcn and Elk Point
In the south, Parker, Canton and
Sioux Falls on the east.

other from the Twin cities to Big
Stone lake where the towns on the
coast line of the Milwaukee, Milbank,
Webster, Groton, Aberdeen, Ipswich,
Roscoe, Bowdle, Selby and Mobridge,
ought to take it up, and Lennon, Het
finger, Bowman and Marmath push
it on until lost in the Bad Lands of the
little Missouri.
1T is a fact that much of such roads
are now very fair, but here and there
is a stretch absolutely impossible
part of the year. l would have the
towns join with the county or civil
in the building of these
great arteries of commerce, for such
they would become. When we get
state aid, or state and national aid,
such work will be easily accomplished
by public officials. In the meantime
towns and county commissioners of
the counties interested meet at a
central place and plan the work. Wis
ionary, you say? Not at all. Manv

OUR FORESTRY.

Prof. Robert F. Kerr has been max
ing a survey of the forestry Of Brook
ings and has found the following vari-
cites of trees cultivated there: Ash,
apple, aspen, Austrian pine, balm of
Gilead, Black Hills pine, box elder,
buckeye, burr oak, butternut, Caro-
lima poplar, choke cherry, common
cherry, compass cherry. cottonwood,
cutleaf birch. blackberry, ~jackpine.
Lombardy poplar, pin cherry, red
birch, red cedar, red elm, Russian pop
lar, Russian olive, silver maple. silver
spruce, soft maple, tame plum, walnut,
water elm, weeping willow, white
birch, yellow willow, arbor vitae, lin
den and laurel willow, forty varieties
in all. The presence of the horticul.
tural department Of the Agricultural
College at Brookings may have to do
with the large variety. but 1t would
be interesting to know the number
grown in Canton. We rather think
we could show up with as many

no other serious losses are report
ed. Yesterday morning Mr.. Williams
son, Harry, received a message from
the farm saying that a valuable colt
had been badly injured in a barb-wire
fence, and it would seem as though the
family are having more than their
share of hard luck.
