essary for every grower to select his
seed. The method is simple, and a
be carried on by any farmer, who is
careful with his work and in every
case he will be rewarded with better
yields.
Go out into the potato field and Sc
lect your seed potatoes before you
begin to dig the entire field. Select
a plant that looks thrifty and vigor-
Gus and which you think will have
quite a large number of potatoes. If
you select a plant according to the
above description, dig it up and see
how many potatoes you have. If this
plant has three or four small potatoes
and n very large one, do not save
the potatoes from this plant at all.
Why? Because this plant has the DOW
|er only to produce three or four small
potatoes and n large one. SO if we
plant either the small potatoes or the
large n of this plant our result in
next years crop will be the same, viz.
three or four small potatoes and one
large potato.
However, If you select a plant of the
above description and find three large
potatoes and two small ones, do not
save this plant for the above reasons,
viz, that it can only produce three
large potatoes and two small ones.
Select a plant of the above descrip-
ton which bears four or five nice,
medium sized potatoes. Why? Be-
cause this plant can produce the above
number of potatoes, and this size pota-
toes are the best to sell on the mar.
ket and also the ones that o O the
best. Remember that like produces
like"
so II we will go out into our potato
patch this fall before we begin to dig:
and select the seed potatoes in the
manner described, we cannot helm but
have an increased yield for next years
crop.
In making the study Of the potato
plant, keep the following facts in mind:
l. Those that seed to resist the hot
weather.
Z. Those that seem to resist dis.
ease.
8. Quality Of the potato.
4. Number and size of the potatoes
In the hill.
The above will give us a start in
growing better and more potatoes.
Next spring we win tell how to han.
die these potatoes that are selected

diseases. and the preparation Of the

POTATO A GOOD CROP.

The agronomy department of the col
lege has issued the following bulletin
on the growing of potatoes:
At the present time South Dakota
is not listed as a potato growing state,
but that fact does not prove that we
can not grow the crop with profit.
While the average price for potatoes
for a series of years has been only
fifty cents, the value of the crop per
acre is greater than that of any of
the cerals. Aside from it's monetary
value, the potato is a very valuable
crop to include in a rotation where
small grains are to be grown. There
Is no reason why this state should
not rank we'll with other states in
potato production when her climate
and soils are OF the first-class for the
culture Of this crop.
The potato does we'll in a cold
moist climate. The average yield per
acre is greater in the northern states
than in the south; and greater in Can
ada than in the United States. h
crop holds an important place in the
general system of farming in many
o. the northern states in point of cash
returns per acre. 1t not only thriyes
best in cool climates of these states.
out at the same time it is very pro-
ductive where the climete almost for.
bids the culture of corn.
The soil considered best Is a deem.
mellow, free working loan, grading
either a sandy loan or a clay loan.
IL properly drained potatoes can be
grown on heavier types OF soil.
The following r some of the rea.
sons for selecting the lighter soils for
potato growing:
/. Such soils IAN be worked very
early in the spring.
2. The light soils become warm
early in the season and the germina-
ton OF the tubers proceeds more rap
Idly.
3. They can be placed in good filth
more easily than heavy soils and with
less labor.
4. Potatoes grown in these types
usually come out bright and clean and
more uniform in size.
s. The quality Of the potato is bet

in play before touching the ground or
la player.
In a case of a kick, the players on
the defense within the twenty yard
zone must not interefer with the ends,
or the other players, in any way until
the opponents have advanced twenty
yards beyond the line of scrimmage.
Interlocked Interference, that is,
players of a side having the ball, TAX.
ing hold of each other, or using the
hands or the arms to grasp the team
mates in any way, is forbidden, and
also it is forbidden for any man on
Ia side having possession of the ball to
push or pull in any way the man run
ming with the ball.
Another innovation is in regard to
the substitution of players during the
game. A rule is adopted which pro
vides that a player who has been re.
moved for any cause, except disquali-
fication or suspension, may be returned
to the game once at the beginning OF
any subsequent period.
The longitudinal lines formerly
marking the field are done away with
as the quarterback may now cross the
line of scrimmage at any point.

fair.
Early Friday evening the work of
packing and removing the displays
began. The national guardsmen took
down their tents and broke camp, the
Sioux Indians prepared % leave, and
to journey in their wagons back to
the Grow Creek reservation. The
show men gathered together their be-
%longings, and packed their attractions
and equipment. The trains we're bur-
dened heavily with the tons of freight.
Many of the stock exhibits will go
from Huron to the Sioux City fair.
and most OF the others will go back
to the stock farms after having made
the circuit of fairs.
With all who have been connected
with the fair, general satisfaction
seems to prevail and few are the
complaints to be entered.
THE management of the far has
treated the exhibitors in excellent
fashion. All OF the large stock ex-
hibitors have stated that they will
return with their cattle and horses
and already prospects are good for
a still greater exposition in 1911. The
exhibitors of this year have been
thoroughly convinced that it paws to
show at the South Dakota fair and
a large increase in the entries next
year is sure to result.
"The only building on the grounds
that was not filed to the doors was
the horticultural hall. Here, however.
We're some of the most interesting
displays on the grounds, among them
being the large Black Hills mining ex-
hibit in which was an exceedingly ex-
pensive show of all manner of ores
and samples of metals. Here also was
a large flower display by the Grover
drug store of Huron, and a large show
OF plants and flowers by the Huron
green houses. The Whiting nursery
of Yankton displayed a large collec-
ton Of shrubs, plants and trees"

The noble redman seems to be pref.
ty much of an easy mark when ii
comes to matching wits with his white
brother and falls for any kind OF an
old game. Last week the sheriff of
Corson county was arrested on a
charge Of d%efrauding the government
wards, and according to stories told
by the Indians he worked a pretty
shrewd deal or them. The officer sold
them a generous quantity of whiskey
and after they had imbibed too freely
he arrested them and imposed a stiff
fine for in~toxication, thus making two
profits on one transaction. 1t is too
bad the government had to discourage
such enterprise.

1t is suggested that a state park be
made of the big tract of land in the
Black Hills, which the state recently
secured from the federal government.
This tract was decided to the state in
lieu OF the school sections in the for
est reserve, and is ideal for a park,
containing as it does sixty thousand
acres of wooded land. The next leg
islature will be called upon to dispose
of the tract, and they could do worse
with 1t than create a state park.
