Pierre-The report of the condition

state for the last month, Indicates a
total of s317 ,401 in all funds, but
of this the general fund has only
$11,623. The call OF taxes for De-
cember will soon begin to come in,
and that fund will be largely in
creased before the first of the year
The income fund for the schools of tie
state contains s12S,s9O, but this will
be sent out to the schools aNort the
middle of this month, and will not be
idle long. The Irvine plant fund car
ries $5s,0S5. The game fund does
not show any great increase on &C
count of the game licenses of this
year, having but ,637 at the pres
ent time, but as the county treasnr-
ers will likely remit the game fund
this month at the time Of remittan es
of other moneys that fund is likely to
go to $4,000 by the first of the year.

GRAIN INSPECTION
Legislature May Establish Station at

Aberdeen-If the South Dakota leg

OF the South Dakota state rail-

lish state grain inspection sta
ton at Aberdeen. Owing to the
railroad connections out of lAse deem.
it is the largest grain shipping sta
ton in the state. Commissioners w.
G. Smith and F. c. Robinson, while
in Aberdeen recently, stated that the
commission believed it desirable to es-
tablish station where all grain ship
ped out Of the state from that point
could be weighed, inspected and grad
ed, and that they would ask the legis-
lature to establish such station at
Aberdeen because of its shipping facil-
ties. At present South Dakota has
no station where grain may be Of
ficially inspected.
The commissioners will hold a con-
ference with representatives of the
South Dakota Farmers Grain Dealers
Association at Huron on December
Is, for the purpose of deciding on a.
ton sought by the association rela-
tive to lower interstate rates of grain
shipments. At Lennon on Decembe'
20, at Aberdeen on December q and
ct Rapid City on December %, the
commission will hold hearings rela-
tive to grain rates in South Dakota

Outclass Other Countries in Savings

and the statistics which measure the
savings OF other countries is proof of
the difference between the ability to
>save and the wide diffusion OF pros
perity in the United States and the
conditions in foreign lands.
In Germany, for instance, there are
more than 100000 savings accounts,
but the total amount represented by
that multitude of deposits is only
about $3,400,O00, 200, or little more
than half of the savings deposits in
American banks. The United King
dom, with nearly half as large a popu-
lation as that of the United States,
has about 100000 savings accounts.
including postal savings banks. Of
course, but the deposits amount to
only about sl.o5o, 100000. or 16 per
cent of the American total
Austria and Hungary together have
about $1.6OO,Oo0,OO0 in savings de-
posits owned by nearly 100000 de-
positors. Italy stands high in the
number of savings accounts. with z.
100000 of them, in round figures. but
low in the total amount Of the de
posits, which are under 100000 900.
Japan Is marvel in respect to tbs
wide use OF savings banks. including
the postal savings department OF the
