Nature shy whispers 70 us her secret,

NOW YOU'RE K
Spearfish Normal Professor Would
Teach Practical Farming

Spearfsh-Prof. +. L. Cook OF the
Spearfish normal, declares that In ad-
~vOcating the teaching Of practical
farming and kindred industries in the
schools of the west, he is but voicing
the ideas Of the most advanced educa-
tors in the east.
The o~vererowding Of the profess
sions," said Professor Cook in an in
terview, should force all thinning
people to realize that our modern
methods and courses are not sufficient.
Boys and girls leaving school today
are in many instances fitted for pro-
LESSONS where hundreds of others
just as bright. are already fighting for
a living. The country, and particu-
larly this state, needs artisans. We
cannot get enough of them. We need
practical farmers for this is the age
of the farm and agriculture as a
means Of living is growing by leaps
and bounds. South Dakota is young
and undevslOped but it presents a
vast field for the ambitious youth and
its fertile fields are yearning for SKILL
full hands.
81 am in favor Of a cOurse In all
the state normal schools Of agricll-
ture. I also favor teaching trades and
will work toward this end. Much
public money is today being wasted.
although our schools rank high, be-
cause the common schools fall to
prepare for useful sciences

UNCLE JOE CANNON
HE ALSO SPEAKS WELL OF CAN.
ADA.

No matter what may be the opinion
Of Mr.. Joseph Cannon, no matter If
he may be looked upon by some as
a car, and by others as a big warm
hearted man, with many of the in.
stincts that make humanity very bear
able, all will admit that he is a man
who has been advertised more than
any other man in the United States.
What he may have to say therefore
or any subject, will have weight. OBJ
servant, he speaks his mind freely.
He was interviewed the other day by
the correspondent of a Canadian
newspaper. He spoke of his admiration
for Canada, and he is quoted in a way
that pictures fairly we'll the personal
of the man. The correspondent says
he launched out into personal BIZ
ography, proverbial philosophy, politi-
cal comment, cynical scorn, broad pro-
family and sentimental poetry such as
one rarely hears in the space of an
hour. He discussed the Canadian ia
riff, and then said: People say l
break the Ten Commandments, all of
them. But l don't, at least not often.
l did break n of them up in Canada
two or three years ago. AS | rode
from Winnipeg to the Rockies over
your great West and. saw the finest
wheatields in the world, | thought of
Virginia and a lot of our States, and
I smashed the Tenth Commandment
every hour of the journey. Yes, sir,
l coveted my neighbours land" Com
ing from a man of the fame of Mr..
Cannon, these were words that should
have some weight with the Americans
who may still have doubts Of the ad.
vantages hat are offered to them in
Western Canada. A home amongst
the wheatfieldS. Hundreds of thou.
sands of Americans are adopting it.
They 60 to Central Canada, to any
n Of the three Provinces of Mani
tOba, Saskatchewan or Alberta, or to
the Coast Province of British Column
bia, take up their homestead of 100
acres, and probably pre-empt another
100 acres, or it may be they do not
care for pioneering twenty or thirty
miles from an existing railway, and
purchase a farm. Then they settle
upon it and, having no clearing away
of timber they begin at once to cul-
tivate it, and make money. That they
make money and much more than
they could possibly make on the high
priced farms they have left, is the
evidence Of hundreds of thousands
They do not leave civilized life, tb
but remove from one sphere to an
other. They have splendid social con
ditions, churches, schools, rural tele-
phones, splendid roads, railways, con-
venient just the same as what they
left, ald what is more, they get much
greater returns from their crops,
which give abundant yield. The eli
mate is perfect, and it is no wonder
that most flattering reports are sent
back to their friends in the States,
and it is no wClder that Joe Cannon
was tempted 70 speak as he did. Ie
coveted" hi neighbours land.

Critics and Manaqers Clash.

Between the whole press of Copen-

a curious contest has started because
the managers want to compel the

The contest began when the board of

WANT THE BISON
Rapid City Would Maintain Herd If
Owned by Government

Rapid City-A buffalo herd o. ma
tional reputation, as an additional at
traction for tourists this summer, is
a strong possibility for Rapid City.
Recently it was announced that Scot
ty" Phillips, the well known trapper
and Old plainsman OF Fort Pierre, de-
sired to seel his herd of $50 head, said
to be the largest and best preserved
herd of the buffalo eXtant in this CO
try. A number of this city's prOmi-
nent business men at once saw the
possibility for such an attraction here
and entered into communication witt
MIR. Phillips. 1t is now proposed to get
the government to make an aDroprla-
ton to buy the herd on condition that
Rapid City guarantee the place to
keep them in and provide for their
maintenance. Congressman Martin
has taken up the question at Washing
ton and is in hopes that favorable ac-
ton can he had. The local business
men ~canvassed the situation here and
have assurance that local citizens Will
take ARE Of the animals should they
be brought here. Ten miles west OF
town is a large open park surrounded
by a pine grove and with running va
ter and plenty Of grass, and entirely
suitable for the b ffaio. Rapid City
intends making 9 st Ong bid for the
tourist traffic this summer and be-
lieves the herd would prove a strong
drawing card.
