Officers of National Guard Or

The officers of the South Dakota
National Guard have been ordered to
Fort Meade to attend an institute of
instruction.
The institute will open June 25 and

Lake for Capitol Grounds.

Pierre, May l6.-The last legislat-
i've session authorized the use of
$4,000 of the state capitol fund for
the securing of an additional tract
east Of the capitol grounds, for the
addition Of lake as a part of the
parking scheme for the grounds. Con-
demnation proceedings were brought
to secure the lots and parts of lots,
and after hearing the jury in circuit
court brought in their verdict here
fixing the amount of damages to the
property owners at 50, 923. This brings
the cost within the appropriation,
and will allow the work along that
line to proceed as soon as an appro.
priation for parking the grounds can
secured from the legislature.

To Fix Up the Streets.

The new city commissioners are get
ting busy on the problem Of putting
streets Of the city in better condition
and will employ an engineer to super
intend the work. Regarding the pres
ent condition of the streets the Guide
very aptly says:
For a long time the poor streets in
Rapid City have been an annoyance
to the citizens Of the town and the
problem of improving them has been
the general topic of conversation
among public spirited people. The
new board of commissioners seem to
be handling the matter in a good
practical manner, Realizing that it
is useless to try to repair the streets
so long as there is no effective way J
handling the water which makes
Eighth street almost impossible at
certain seasons of the year, it has
been first decided to secure the SER
vices of a competent engineer who
will grade the streets and figure out
some feasible plan for getting rid of
the overflow. This having been done
plan may be submitted to the peo-
pie for improving the streets in a
scientific manner. The water which
falls on the fiat city surface could
easily be taken care of by the city
cutters, the incline being such that
the natural drain to the river is
formed, but the torrent which pours
down from the watershed south of
town, coming from distance of five
miles, is not an easy thing to cope
with. There are several ways talked
of for taking care of this, but nothing
has been presented which is COM
pletely satisfactory. Mayor Jackson
and the present board of city commits
sioners are attracting great deal of
notice and favorable comment for the
way in which they have grasped the
city's needs and deficiencies and the
prompt and efficient manner in which
they are meeting them.

What Ais IOwa?"

According to forecast on the CEN
sus returns, Iowa is the only state in
the union that shows decrease in
population from the figures establish
ed by the census ten years ago. The
decrease in that states population
was shown by the state census taken
tive years ago, and at that time the
efforts to learn the cause excited the
editorial gray matter in all the met
ropolltan newspaper offices Of the
country. This time before the mold
ers OF public opinion undertake to tell
what they don't know on the subject,
ought to fix a few facts in mind
Iowa is strictly an agricultural state
1t has no very large cities with the
exception Of Des Moines, the capital
OF the state, but the 1900 census
credits the state with having more
incorporated towns with $500 to
10000 population than any other state
in the union. Prior to 1900 the in
tiuX of people into Iowa seeking agri-
cultural pursuits was greater than
the area of the state justified, so
many after few years residence
there came on out into the golden
west. In the early '90's Kansas, Ne
braska and the Dakotas burned up
from the hot winds, and great swarms
of immigrants recrossed the Missouri
river into Iowa, and that population,
added to the influx from the east,
gave Iowa more people for the 1900
census than rightly belonged to the
state.
But there is no use worrying over
What Ails Iowa" Within the past
lrn years the state has become a fac
tor in manufactures. Owners of
plants in the cities are getting away
from labor disturbances and are
building anew out in smaller towns
nearer the center of their trade, and
Iowa's many towns ranging from a
lew thousand to 100000 population
are making place for the factories and
| the towns are increasing very fast in
population, and Iowa real estate is
higher now than it has ever been.
| The factories will continue to come,
and bring the people, and before the
1920 census is taken the increase in
Iowa's urban population will be great

Advertising Pays.

Americans have been suffering lit
tie pique because of the wholesale i'm
migration to Canada Of American
farmers. They rebuke the lack Of pat
riotism which results in expatriation
for profit: preferring, it would seem,
that patriotism that demands sacri-
flee for someone else's profit. But the
rush to the cheap lands has it's source
in three causes. The first is copious
and judicious advertising by both the
Canadian government and the rail
roads. The second is the desire Of
young men of limited capital to Sc
cure start on cheap land. The third
is an economic fallacy, the idea that
cheap lands mean larger profits.
Taking leaf from the book of the
the merchant Canada has learned the
value of advertising. 1t has MAIN
tanned an expensive propaganda for
the purpose of filling up the waste
places in the western division of its
empire. 1t is paying a good price for
what it regards as good bargain: for
untitled acres produce nothing, nei-
ther taxes. population nor markets.
The railroad managers have been
heavily interested in the movement.
And they have been wisely interest
ed They want population along their
right of way for population makes
freight both ways and freight both
ways is what pays dividends. But
they have been long headed in theil
outlook. They realize what President
Taft did not realize. when in speech
he said that ''the prosperity of the
people depends upon the prosperity OF
the railways" They know that the
prosperity of the railways depends up
pom the prosperity of the people, anC
they set out to secure prosperous
class of settlers. They have put theil
agents at work in Denmark, Norway
and Sweden and the mid continenta
area to secure prosperous and well-to
do immigrants. 1t is no easy matter
to get the prosperous and competent
farmer to leave his native soil for the
! privations of the pioneer life. Fol
that reason they have gone to work tt
remove the edge of pioneering. The
railway sells the land, builds the farm
structures, equips the farm with The
necessary tools, plants the first crop!
and turns over the farm in a ready
made condition to the new conner. II
this manner they have secured for th'
Canadian northwest a class of farmer
of substantial merit, men who are M
mere soil robbers seeking new field
of exploitation; but real farmers VIII,
will become permanent inhabitants
The same method Is applied to tillin,
up the irrigated belt. AS result o
this policy the railways will begin t.
draw quicker returns, will be assure'
of a permanent population and hav
