BELLE F0URCHE VALLEY
A BEAUTY SPOT
arming Conditions are Ex-
tcellent This Season

Belle Fourche, May 2.-The Belle
Fourche valley. one of the most beau
tiful in the west. is one of the busiest
places in South Daeota today. Every
thing is humming. Spring came early
and warm, drawing the frost out of
the ground so that farming operations
began early in March.
The old timers.a are getting their
fields in shape for seeding and large
number of new settlers are turning
the sod on their new farms to be
ready for spring planting. The con-
ditions agriculturally were never
never more favorable. A great build
ing boom has set in and Belle Fourche,
Vale and other towns in the valley
show number of new buildings I'M
der construction.
Newell, town fourteen days old,
boosted building for every day. Its
newspaper established in the opening
week, is full Of local items and opti-
mistic predictions of future great
ness for the coming city of the valley.
The new branch line of the Chicago
& Northwestern is graded to the edge
Of the government townsite, and the
laying of the rails will begin in the
near future. 1t seems probable that
the road will be in operation during
the summer.
Work on the big Belle Fourche dam
is progressing rapidly, only 10000
cubic yards of total of l,6OO, 600 cubic
yards remain to be put in their place.
The principal work to be done is tC
face the upper side Of the embank-
ment with gravel overlaid with con.
crete blocks to prevent wave action.
The dam will be 6,2OO feet long, with
maximum height of lis feet. 1t
will create the largest lake in South
Dakota. and soon become favorite
hunting and fishing resort. About
$4,000 feet will be stored in the reser.
voir this summer.
The reclamation service at Wash
ington, is especially encouraged in
the outlook for this project. OF the
l40 farmers who We're entitled to the
water in 1909 only fifteen were delin
quent in their payments, and of these
it tbs believed that twelve will make
good before cancellation proceedings
are instituted. This is an excellent
showing when it is considered that
many of them were inexperienced
and possessed only moderate means.
Settlers are coming in rapidly anc
by June every farm in the secont
unit will be filed upon. In 1911 very
large area of public land will be avail
able for entry, and about 40 gooc
farms of 80 acres each are available tt
entry now on the second unit.
The cost of the water right, $50 pc
acre. is one of the lowest in the west
Payments may be made in install
ments covering a period Of ten year
without interest.

THE GOLD LEAF.
THURSDAY, AUGUST 4, 1910.
The Nobility of Labor.

Saws writer in an exchange: Some
time ago came across this clipping
in a paper that is from the pen OF the
immortal Lincoln and | feel that it is
worthy Of being reprinted again and
again, pondered over and practiced
by a great majority. Here it is:
"Whereas God Almighty has given to
every man one mouth to be fed and
one pair of hands adapted to furnish
food for that mouth, if anything can
he prOven to be the will of Heaven
it is proven by this fact that that
mouth is to be fed by those hands
without being interfered with by any
other man who has also his mouth to
feed and his hands to labor with. L
hold if the Lord Almighty had ever
made a set Of men that should do all
the eating and none OF the work, lie
would have made them with mouths
only and no hands; and ifhe had made
another class which he intended to
do all the work and none OF the eat
ing, He would have made them with
out mouths and with all hands"
There are some people in the world
whose ideas do not agree with Abra-
ham LincOln's Oh this subject. They
seem to believe that they belong only
to the eating class and circumstances
are such that they have to exert
themselves for living they use their
brains hunting q way to avoid the
work more than how to do it, or IN
other words to try to live by their
wits rather than their work. Yes there
are few people existing today who
have yet to learn that labOris no dis
grace. Our Saviour the son OF a King
did not have to labor, yet He did; and
do you suppose He was ever ashamed
of being seen at it? Yet ! have known
people who would rather live in idle,
ness than to be seen engaged in some
humble though honest occupation.
Any occupation that is honest is
honorable. There is much dignity IN
labor. No one need ever be ashamed
of any honest work so long as he does
it well.
Never any disgrace about labor but
in our humble opinion there is much
attached to idleness.
Labor, all labor is noble and
holy"

Farming at the South.
Washington Post.


The Montgomery Advertiser has
this to say of an industry that prom
Uses to be of incalculable Importance,
not only to Alabama but to every
other cotton State:
"Reports from many counties IN
Alabama show that there is q great
increase in the planting OF corn. The
attention that has been given corn
planting shows that it is being much
more carefully cultivated, which will
result, weather permitting, in far
greater yield. The general impress
sion seems that the crop returns this
fall will show a gain OF nearly a
fourth in the number of bushels over
last years harvest This will be
equivalent to keeping several hun
dreds OF thousands of dollars in the
State that would have been otherwise
sent away"
The bane OF agriculture in America
consists OF careless preparation of
the soil, imperfect cultivation OF the
crop, and unthrift and waste on the
farm; and this especially true of the
South. Vast areas are devoted to cot
ton that should be planted to corn or
seeded to alfalfa. In their virgin state
these acres producedmore cotton than
hands could "pick," but the time has
come when their yield OF lint is one
fourth what it was threescore years
ago.
In some sections of the South, not
ably the black prairie lands OF east
ern Mississippi, the soil has been re-
stored to it's pristine fertility by
means of cowpeas and alfalfa. Corn
and oats are employed in the rota-
ton, and hogs and beeves thrive even
better than do in Iowa or Kansas.
What the cotton South needs is in
tensive farming. Let the lands be cut
up into small holdings and cultivated
with diligence and intelligence. When
that Is done Alabama will export
more butter than Illinois, more hogs
than Iowa, more bullocks than Kan
saS.
Everything being equal, Alabama
should grow cotton, Iowa, corn, and
Minnesota wheat; but there is the
matter of rotation OF crops, and the
economic salvation OF the South de-
Ponds on making cotton the surplus
crop, as tobacco should be in Ken
lucky.
But great progress has been made,
as witness what we quote from the
Montgomery paper.

"Old Joe" Cannon at II.
Wilmington Star.

Wilmington Star.
Speaker Cannon is now u years
old and is busily engaged in the po-
litical campaign, seeking vindication
for himself after a public life of about
40 years. A man who has lived near
ly three-quarters OF century and
now finds it necessary to vindicate
himself, has lived to little purpose.
IT. a man cannot accumulate honOrs
the older he grows, he had better ex-
anime himself, call a halt, and quit
doing things that bring him humilia-
ton, lose him the confidence of his
fellow men aud leave him shattered
OF self-respect when his locks grow
white and his legs totter at the brink
OF the grave. The man who lives
right all the time doesn't have to
bother about vindication. He sleeps
In an honored grave when his life
comes to an end.

Carolina Grown Rice.
Wilmington Star.

wilmington Star.
The low lying lands on the Cape
Fear river and other streams around
Wilmington produce the highest
grade of rice known in the world. At
one time rice production was one OF
our great industries and many fine
rice plantations were to be found in
this section. While rice is still grown
in considerable quantities the indus
try, once the chief agricultural pur-
suits in this part of the country, has
given way to truck farming and other
agricultural pursuits. However, the
great fertility of the lands adapted
to rice culture yet offers rich harvest
in that line of industry. We are yet
to see a great revival OF rice growing
in eastern North Carolina and the
time is now right for the reclamation
of our many acres of fine rice lands.
Modern dredging machinery and new
systems of drainage will make reclaim
alton economical and the big profits
to be secured from rice production
will sooner or later invite attention
to this matter
Mr.. Delaney Evans, the govern
ment rice expert, was in Wilmington
recently and expressed establishment
that the rice growing industry on the
Cape Fear was not being developed
as it should. He is authority for the
declaration that North Carolina
grown rice is the best in the world and
he stated that for seed purposes alone
there would be fortune in the indus
try at this time. The cultivation Of
rice is carried on in many portions of
the South on an extensive scale and
there has arisen tremendous demand
from Louisiana, Texas and other rice
growing countries for North Carolina
seed rice.
This is matter ofgreat Importance
| in the future development of the agri-
cultural interests of this section and
it is an inviting field for men with
capital and enterprise or for COM
panies organized to conduct opera
tions on an economical and system
attic scale. There are some fine rice
plantations near Wilmington and
they are still yielding fortunes for
their successful owners. By allmeans
there should be a revival of the indus
try in view OF it's great promise.

Charlotte Chronicle.

Charlotte Chronicle
a publishing house in Richmond
has just received an order for $780,
600 school books. Commenting upon
this fact, The Times-Dispatch says:
"This is news note that is we'll
worth the attention of the people and
the comment OF the press Southern
made books for Southern schools is
a good plan for the South, if the
truth OF history is to be preserved"
Some of the Southern school books
have been as unfair as some OF the
Northern schoolbooks, but as a gen.
eral thing, the South should write,
print and study its own history. We
are glad to see the above evidence
that progress is being made in that
direction.
