CORN IN SOUTH DAKOTA

South Dakota in the corn belt? Why
not? Here is what Clifford Willis,
grain expert Of the state experiment
station, says.
sSouth Dakota is now one of the
corn-growing states of the union. The
skeptic on this question is no longer
heard, and the man who would disdain
South Dakota soil because of its in
ability to produce corn has been shown
his error. In fact, men who once
scoffed are now buying South Dakota
farms on which they expect to grow
corn. During the year 1909 the state is
shown to have produced sixty-f five and
a quarter million bushels of corn on
two million fifty-nine thousand acres Of
Iand. 'Ghis gives yield per acre OF
3l.7 bushels as an average for the state.
We know that there are farmers who
produced eighty and hundred bushels
to the acre.
There is. no reason why South Dakota
should not increase its corn yield annu-
ally. AS Mr.. Willis says:
S'The production of a large amount
of good corn during any given season
does not depend upon any one factor.
1t depends upon a great number of
considerations, the absence of any one
of which will cause loss to the indi-
vidual concerned. The most of the
losses at the present time come because
of carelessness and thoug ugntlessness on
the part of the men responsible. .

THE CALL OF. THE SOIL

The soil is calling you today. 1t is
your inheritance. ..as truly as is the
fresh air of the morning, or the pure
water of the mountain stream, The
soil is calling you back to Nature; it
bids you leave the dull drudgery and
business strife. 1t bids you leave
these for the freedom Of the open air
and for the JOY of independence.
1t does not call you to farm or
ranch, where labor begins with lam
tern and ends with fatigue; it calls
you to the perfect fruits in the au-
tumn, thankful heart; to ease, and
comfort.
These are yours-you have only to
answer the call.

THE FARMERS ADVANTAGE

Ii any further proof were necessary
thai the average farmer is better off
from inanclaland economic stand
point than the average city man it is
to be found III the report just issued
by the New York committee on Con-
gestion of Population. According to
this report 45U 200 wage earners in the
city OF New York are receiving wages
below the minimum on which it is
possible to support their families in
decency. This minimum Of decency
is set at $500 a year, which is an il
crease OF about 500 over the minimum
set by the statistics year ago, the
excessive cost of actual living neces-
stiles being responsible for the limit
being raised.
The committee finds that the aver
age OF BAG, 900 workers in Manhattan
and the Bronx is $543 a year and of
100000 in Brooklyn is only $5I9. 1t
VIII Cnus be seen that almost half!
million people IN this one city alone
are receiving between $500 and $500 a
year less than the committee, after
careful investigation, finds is absol-i
utely necessary to maintain body and
soul. This finding yerities the de-.

FOR SHERIEF

You beti
He is a real sheriff.
An officer who does things.
He understands the business.
Sheriffs are born, they..aresnot made.
AS an officer, he has no apologies to
make.
He never prostitutes his office.
He treats every one with the same
consideration that he would expect
from them under like circumstances.
Did you ever hear any sane man
say that he was not an efficient officer
or that he was derelect in the exercise
of his duties?
Has he not been one of the best Of
all the good boosters for his town,
county and state2
Do you know of any good reason
why you cannot support himp
If you cannot answer the last
question, ask some who has known
him ever since he came to this
county in 1883 3twenty-seven years
ago, and then ask the people at Mt.
Pluski, ILL.,, where he was born and
raised. His best friends are the ones
who have known him the longest and
have had the most dealings with him.
His record, as q sheriff, is 100.
That spells a.. b. G.
Who is fighting him?
His political enemies, only.
Why2
Because he never deyiates from the
chalk line laid down by law, backed
by brains and good judgment2
Did you ever hear of his being
engaged in any nefarious or illegal
business of any kind or description?
He was sheriff of this county from
1901 to 1905, was out four years and
has been sheriff again during the past
year until the present time. What Of
that?
| Has he not done his duty in every
respect? and, if SO, is he not entitled
to this mis- second termp

lie is one OF our heavy tax payers
on property accumulated by close and
continuous application to business

AS an officer or civilian his conduct
has always been above reproach, and
his word is ace high, even with his,
political enemies; he has none other.
He is the man we want for sheriff,
an officer that we can depend upon;
one That We can bet on, at every

obstacles may be; one that will do
business and do it right no matter
who it is with, or for; one that has

SOUTHDAkOTA !,
LAND ATTRACTIVE

Where the corn crop profits vie
with the wheat yield and the farmer
is bewildered as to which to choose
it must be pretty good land. And
that is the truth about the state of
South Dakota which in the last few
years has been attractive more immi
grafton than almost any other state
in the union.
Yet, for u century almost, the
land has been famous for it's richness
There are parts of it that the greatest
Indian wars in history were fought
over and the possession of it by the
whites was not secured until many
lives had been lost.
That is what they are beginning to
do now, and if one looks back at that
record year, 1906, which is almost
like the Higira, has come to be the
basis of all farming comparison, it
will be seen that the state of South
Dakota produces more crops:percapita
than any other state, which of course
means nothing but that if South
Dakote had happened to have in it
as many people as there are in IL
linois, this garden spot of the world
in all logic would have looked like
the mystic 80 cent when put along
side of South Dakota.
The land is cheap, too, on account
OF the fact that the people have been
backward in coming forward, and
those who are getting in on the
ground floor arelaying hold of all the
land they can get because they know
that there is a boom coming very
shortly, that will put it out of reach
OF all except the wealthy.
Wheat was one of the first crops
that was raised in South Dakota, anG
what is the use of talking about iti
| Every farmer knows and the grain
dealers, too, that there was a time
| when all anyone talked about was
| Kansas wheat. But now it is, twhat
are they doing this year in the Da
kotas," and if the report is goodlbhe
Shorts have an awful time OF 1t ii
the grain pit for with the Dakotas
and the country across the border on
the wheat job the crop is sure to be
up to the mark.
But corn is rapidly supplanting wheat
in many parts of South Dakota for i
has been found that it is wonderful
corn country. 1t is a hardy crop, dries
out in great shape and grows rapidly
When it is hot in Dakota it is very hot
and the soil is just like that in Illinois.
The combination is one that has ap
pealed to many of the farmers and the
reports that have come back are al
satisfactory.
1t one wants to know how much OF
corn and how much of oats can be ra1s
ed to the acre the easiest way to fine
out is to figure his crop here at home
for the yieldin both is almost Identical
Wheat has varied from Is bushels to &c
bushels, and much depends on thu
judgments of the man who tills the
soil. Decatur Herald.

TO OBSERVE
MEMORIAL DAY

Veterans to meet soon to discuss
plans for the proper observance of
Memorial Day. Many are urging d
proper observance.
Memorial day is a solemn day to
the members of the Grand Army of

as the years are passing" says Com
mander Mcdonald. "The number of
graves is increasing, while the num-
Der to observe the day is decreasing.
At this time let us remember, as we
stand before some grave, that we not
only strew flowers there, but that in
the act there is symbolism of our
love, our tender remembrance and
our fraternal appreciation for all the
sacrafces made and patriotism shown
by all the defenders of our flag and
nation.
''It has become so universally a
custom for posts to attend service in
body on the Sunday preceding Me-
mortal day that it hardly seems neces
sary to recommend it.

which saved the union and made this
republic a world power among the
nations of the world.
Justly proud of the achievements
of the past, deyoutly thankful for the

June IA has been adopted by the

possessor of flag display it on that
day, and request his friends and
neighbors to do the same.
1t should be an object lesson to
