THE SURPLUS IS LARGE

Come and see what corn and wheat
and oats and barley,-yes, and the
fruits, vegetables, the honey and
butter our state has produced in this
year of universal drouth and short
crops. 1t will astonish you. That
Black Hills mining exhibition is a
revelation to man who has ALWAYS
imagined that this is solely an agri-
cultural state
And then the farm stock horses
cattle, sheep, swine and poultry
there are 126 pens of Poland Chinas
alone already entered. You may
scarcely believe, unless you come and
see for youself. that breeders will be
here from Wisconsin, Minnesota and
even from the Bluegrass region OF
Kentucky, to buy better breeding
stock than they can find at home.
Another feature Of this fair that
should commend it to every good
citizen is it's decency. Not only will
there be no gambling or games OF
chance permitted, but the shows al
lowed on the grounds will be clean.
Nothing vulgar, or even suggestive
of vulgarity, has been given q license
The management has given special
inducements to clean, high class en-
tertainment organization, following
the same rule in this respect as in
every other in an effort to make
the South Dakota State Fair "The
Best in the West :" Come Monday
and see for yourself.

A MASSACHUSETTS IDEA

Under law passed in Massachn-
sets two years ago some interesting
experiments in Representation have
been conducted, with the result that
a growing sentiment for the reciama-
ton of the waste lands has been Great
ed and private owners are vying with
the state in plans for retimbering the
otherwise Yaluless lands.
The law permits the state to buv or
receive from citizens lands suitable
for reforestation, with the provision
that persons thus ceding lands may
| repurchase them from the state by
meeting the expense incurred by the
states effort to transform barren
places, and at the same time educate
land owners in the way in which ter.
ritory now unproductive can become
source of ultimate income,

sets, reports that in two years the
state has bought or had ceded to it.

law, 1900 acres of land which have
been planted to pine, spruce and ash.
at an expense Of a little less than $50 :.
900, or about $40 an acre. Nj. Rane
reports that The models set in making
these plantations are being initiated
quickly, and that many private own
ers of land are asking for state In
structions in the method Of planting

Detailed investigation of the Mas

to the officials of Minnesota and other
states that feel the necessity Of con-
serving their timber resources.

South Dakota has never given, South
Dakota has never seen such a fair
as this one. In number and in vo-
lume the exhibits, the races and the
entertainment will Guido all form
er fairs; in quality they are else, you
should see the great South Dakota
Derby on Monday, Sept 18th, the
opening day of the Fair, the only one
one IN the West. Remember that
Iowa and Nebraska started Derbys
but neither of them filled with
starters. What those two compare
tiyely old rich states could not do
the young State of South Dakota has
accomplished. 1t is an earnest of the
states determination to distance her
elder sisters in other respects.

There will be plenty or fertile
farming land left in the Standing Rock
and Cheyenne River reservations
after those who drew numbers in the
land lottery are through filing.
This daily becomes increasingly
evident. The men who are filing
now are the men who intend to
develop the land into real farms.
The spectators have been elimina-
ted. The men who file after the
number holders get through will be
men who expect to make their home
in South Dakota, and who take
homesteads for that purpose. 1t will
all work out for the ultimate good of
the state and it's people.

We are told that the astronomers
as a rule treat with derision the
theory advanced by the French anna
teur astronomer Marchand that the
comet discovered on the 9th of this
month by the Rev. P. H. Metcalf, of
Taunton, Mass, is none other than
the real Halley's comet. This comet,
according to Marchand, is due about
this time. 1t should be said in JUS
tice to Marchand that he never has
recognized the alleged HALEY comet.
He declared at the very beginning OF
that great disappointment that it was
a comet that had never been seen be
fore, and there seems to be some sup
port for him in the fact that it was a
comet that most people have no great
desire ever to see again.

natural policy will be to exact of the

than a generation, however, to devel-
op the Koreans into reliable Japan

The conviction of William Ben
ware, the reckless chauffeur, who
ran over and killed a man at Burling-

as a warning by every person who
drives an automobile. In nearly all

abuse their opportunity and endanger

these get their just deserts the bet
