So, then. a few Of our more important
superfluities which have grown into neces-
stiles at wholesale prices in round numbers

these superfiuities would run the national
government nearly four years, or, II
figured at the total retail cost to the con-
sumner, nearly eight years. However, 1t is
not at all likely that anyone win fOrsgo

saved toward running expenses OF the gov
eminent.

team can be secured. Trustees
were chosen and a team will soon

the most liked games and Mobridge
does not propose to be in the rear.
The proposition of suitable per-
manent ground will have to be
considered, Why not enclose a

Mobridge now has good fire pro-

Most towns put Off making pro-
lection until after they are visited
by bad fire. Not so, Mobridge.
One Of the first things of i'm
portance taken up by the city
fathers a year ago, after organiza-
ton, was the provision for fire
protection, and they decided that a
complete waterworks system over
the main streets of the city was
the solution. Hence today we are
the proud possessors of good
waterworks system.
Besides the six-inch ma a on the
principal streets several blocks of
main have been laid in the resi-
dence district, and numerous pri-
vatc families have put in conec.
tions at their residences. We will
give yoa full description of the
system in an early issue.

Better Farming.

AS the country becomes more
settled and farmers are satisfied
with less acreage and more scien-
titic farming methods, you will OBJ
serve that the conditions here are
not adverse to good farming. Too
many have the idea thatt that thej- tliey must must
farm a very large amount of
ground in the Dakotas and as a
consequence they do so much
poorer job Of farming that the de-
sired results are not obtained. We
hope to see more care taken this
year than heretofore and feel as
sured that the result of the expert
nent will be gratifying. We do
not mean to say that all of the
farming is done in a slir-shod
Far from it. We have
some of the best farmers and
farms to be seen anywhere but the
trend is an attempt to put in more
acreage and do less work accord
ing.
