OF N
Call Shows Over Four Millions Were
Withdrawn in Three Months

Pierre-The total combined in
dividual deposits in the state and ma
tional banks doing business In
South Dakota, at the call for condition
on the Goth day of June, showed $751;
269, 265.77. This is a reduction of S4,-
GIG, 773.04 from the showing of the
same funds on the call of March %.
This reduction is no doubt from the
Withdrawals of cash for farming oper-
atoms, as the state banks show a re-
duction Of over $4,000, 900 in their
checking accounts, and the nationals
show a reduction of about s. $1,000, 900,
while the savings accounts and the
time certificates. themselves a species
of savings, show an increase. The
decrease will no doubt be wiped out
by the time of another report, when
the farmers will be getting returns
for their seasons work.
BY far the heaviest deposits are
shown in the 49, state banks operat-
ing in the state, as they were carry
ing $50,545, 536.71, while the SO nation
al banks were carrying SIS, 723, 726 90.
While the state banks show a de-
crease of $4,000, 900 in their check
ing accounts, they show an increase OF
$131, 900 in their direct savings ac-
counts and over 81, 000, 900 in their
time certificates.

Scenic Beauties of the Hills

Deadwood-There is a scheme now
on foot to advertise the scenic beau
ties Of the Black Hills next year mor
extensively than has ever been done
before. The plan was proposed by w.
S. Elder of this city, an attorney and
active member of the Deadwood Busl-
ness club. 1t includes the organiza-
ton of regular daily and weekly trips
from this point by stage and auto TO
all the points of interest around the
Hills, such as the Bad Lands east Of
Rapid City, Rapid Canyon, Hot
Springs, Mammoth cave, Cave of the
Winds, Crystal cave, Harvey peak,
Sylvan lake, Spearfish canyon, Fort
Meade, United States fish matches les,
United States reclamation project at
Belle Fourche and the Devils tower
over the line in Wyoming. These trips
are to be made for the tourists trade
especially and to be under the regula-
ton and supervision of the Deadwood
Business club. The railroads are to
be asked to take a hand in dissemin-
ating advertising matter in the east
and a start is to be made to build
up the Black Hills as a summer re-
sort.

Il STATE FAIR
The Huron Fair This Year Promises
Some Fine Attractions

Huron-The last county to. make ap-
plication for exhibit space is Charles
Mix, which county promises to send
one of the finest exhibits of agricult-
ure and other products that has ever
been seen in the state. Sinai township
Brookings county has also made appli-
cation for space. These exhibits to-
gther with those for which entry has
already been made, takes all the space
set apart ia the Agricultural build
ing for such exhibits. Those In
charge of amusements have arranged
for entertainments each evening on
the Fair grounds during Fair week,
These include concerts by some of the
best musical organizations in the coun-
try. Lombardo's Band and Grand
Opera company will give entertain
ments each evening in the immense
stock pavilion, which is being spe-
cially prepared for it. In the open
air, will also be given all sorts OF
entertainments for the crowds present.
These night entertainments are a new
departure. A larg force of carpenters
and other workmen are busy 1t the
Fair grounds putting everything IN
readiness for the coming exhibit. A
new dining hall is nearly completed,
which with the one used last season
will accommodate 5000 people daily.
Correspondence between Secretary
M~cIlvaine and the United States navy
department at Washington, in which
request was made for an exhibit at the
state fair to be held Sept. II to 16, OF
a model Of the battleship South Da-
kota, has brought a reply from the
department, to the effect that such a
model could not be exhibited for the
reason that the department were not
in possession of one. Secretary Nc
Ilvaine has, however been notified that
Lieut.. Com. of the United States Navy
/. G. Wettengel, with a number of
naval attaches will be sent to the
state fair in charge of a model of the
battleship Oregon, which will be ex-
hibited and explained every day dur
ing the fair. The navy department

tributing knowledge concerning the
construction and care of bait eships,
which will doubtless be an interest

Mitchell-After waiting a little over
a year, the Elks have resumed work
on their home, which will be enc OF

bound to be wasted in experiments, in
bungling methods, and in learning
how to do things right. The utmost
vigilance is required to avoid spend
ing what is saved on the one hand by
going ahead too fast with improve
ments on the other. A dozen temp
tations to put more money into the
place lie in ambush at every turn.
Economy is fully as difficult as in the
city Isolation, lack of congenial so
ciety. and maddening inability to find
efficient servants-in fact, any kind
at all-are insistent factors of the
problem. The initial outlay is likely
to be no more than half the ultimate
cost. Tools and equipment pile up

HIRSUIE ITALIAN BARRIERS.
PccuIiarities Noted by an Observing

Pccuiiarities Noted by an Observing
IIa,r Tonic Salesman.
"My Lest customers" said the
salesman for the hair-tonic house. &C
cording to the New York Times, ARE
the proprietors of barber shops. where
all Italian BARRIERS are employed.
There's a reason for this and very
simple one. Did you ever see a bald
headed barber in an Italian shop?
Think it over Rack your memory.
I've been in the hair-tonic business for
a good many years and, take my word
for ii, there Is no such thing as a
bald-headed dago barber No. | can't
explain it, 1t is simply an incontro-
vertible fact That's why / say my
best customers are the proprietors of
these shops. Would you buy bottle
CT hair tonic from a barber with a
bald pate? Would you place any con-
fidence in the recommendation of a
barber whose thatch had a NANCY,
moth-eaten appearance? Not If you
are in your sober senses. American
BARRIERS and BARRIERS of other nation
alities, particularly the Germans, have
a disgusting habit of losing their hair.
| use the adjective adyisedly from my
point of view, for it interferes with
my business. And it's a curious thing
that when a barber loses his hair he
doesn't lose his job. Nor is his sat
airy reduced lnasmuch as cOnsid-
cradle portion of the revenue of shop
consists of the selling of various
toilet preparations. you would natur-
ally think that, in the interest of eX-
pert craftsmanship, when barber lost
his hair he would also lose his job.
But the boss barber is a person to be
reckoned with, quite aside from the
purely commercial phase of the situa-
lion. He is loyal to his men and loyal
TO an extent that would seem suicidal
to the head OF big industrial corpor-
alton. But that's his attitude, and In
a way it is an admirable one. Still.
that has nothing TO do with the fact
that there are no bald-headed italian
