Huron. Sept. 3.-The monthly me-
THEOLOGICAL summary for the month
of August which has just been issu-
ed by the local station of the United
States weather bureau shows a set
of figures for August, which have
probably never been equalled.
August of last year was as ex-
IRENE as regards low temperatures
as June was for extremely hot
weather. Only one day during the
entire month did the thermometer
range as high as 100 degrees and for
the majority of the days the tenn
perature failed to reach 80 degrees.
The mean maximum temperature
was 1875 degrees. The mean mini
mum temperature was 55.7 degrees,
while the mean temperature for the
month was 67.6 degrees.

Catalog Competition

During the week ending today
South Dakota has been well covered
with the advertising matter of de-
partment stores at the large COM
merciaI centers. this being the time
of the year when those judicious adj
vertisers prepare for the gathering
of the harvest of fall and winter.
The big concerns tell their story
through the literature they distri-
butte. alleging that their prices are
lower than the local dealer. and no
one comes forward to deny the I'M
truths that burden the pages of the
catalogues. And so the catalogue
house goes on year after year poach-
ing on the domain of the business
communities of the west and is not
interfered with. Huron Huronite.
The above item is not applicable
at Miller, because our merchants
r ready to compete with the cata-
logue houses-and they make the
fact known by advertising.

CO.. EXHIBIT
AT STATE FAIR
Commissioners Appropriate $500
For Exhibition of Hand Co,
Products

At the request of a delegation
from the Commercial Club, the
county commissioners Tuesday ap-
p%ropriated 5000 for the purpose Of
making an exhibit of Hand county
products at the state fair at Huron
next week. The time is short. but
it is the frequently expressed opin-
ion that this is the most important
year for such an exhibit. South
Dakota is IN better shape than other
states, and we should show what we
have produced at our state fair.
The Commercial club selected Chas.
C~orcoran, J. T. McCullen and J. j.
Strut to gather the products, and
Jack Wilson and C.. l.. Ostrander to
arrange the display and take it to
Huron.
Every citizen of Hand County
should take an interest in this mat
ter and help the committees gather
up a good display. 1t must be done
quickly by telephone and automo-
biles.

this record. Following are the

Creamery Talk

Charles Turner and Mr. Walstrom, a
couple of creamery men from Min
nesota, talked with business men
and farmers here last week about
establishing a creamery on the CO.
operative plan. but they met with
indifferent encouragement. And
yet-the dairy and creamery inter-
ests have largely made the prosper
ity Of several of our greatest states.
Prehaps the time is not yet quite
ripe, but the Press expects to see
South Dakota some day covered
with silos and diaries, possibly
creameries also.
At a regular meeting OF the com
mercial club Tuesday night Mr. Tur-
ner presented the creamery question
and asked that a committee of two
be selected to go and examine some
creameries tnat his company has
put in. and report to the people of
this locality.
The club voted favorably upon
such request. and the directors will
select two men to visit the Iowa or
Minnesota creamerles.

Successful Milking Machine

J. T. McCullen and DR.. E. H.
Wilson made a trip to Brookings
last week to investigate the dairy
department at the Agricultural col
lege. They came home satisfied OF
two things, viz: LIST, that to save
feed, make it better, and make it go
farther, the silo is a necessity. End.
that the milking machine in use at
the college is a success. 1t is pro-
bable that both MI McCullen and
Mr. Wilson will equip farms they
own and engage at least partly in
the dairy business.
And you may believe me- that
is the forerunner of a changed
method of farming in South Dakota.

The most prominent feature in the

OF INTEREST
TO
Going Ahead or Slipping Back
By A. E Chamberlain

Dakota Farmer-ThiS is the sea-
son of the year when the farmer
counts the results. His crop is the
result of his efforts in the past.
How is it with vol? Are YOUR fields
in better condition, your crops bet
ter, and are you making better pre-
paration to raise a good crop next
year than you have in the past?
Have you saved your seed corn
for next year? Are you going to
select YOUR seed potatoes from the
field or pile them all in the bin and
take for seed purposes what is left
after the wife has cooked the best
ones? Have you saved some seed
grain from the best part Of your
field? If you are growing an infer
ior variety and some of your neigh
bors have something better, have
you arranged to exchange or to sell
some of your seed and buy some of
his?
Get busy and do it now. Pick
three times as much seed corn as
you expect to plant and then hang
it up and take care of il. Test it
next spring and plant only good
seed

TAKES ISSUE WITH MCCALL.
Former Gov. Bachelor Gives Farm
ers' Views on Reciprocity,

CONCORD, n. H.. April 24.-In an open
letter sent last night to Representative
Samuel W. Mccall, former Gov. Nahum
j Bachelor, master of the National
Grange. Patrons of Husbandry, takes ex-
ceptions to a statement by Mr.. Mccall in
his speech Friday in Congress that the
opposition Of the farmers to the Canadian
reciprocity bill does not represent the
genuine sentiment Of the farmers them
selves.
For your information,'' writes Mr.
Bachelor, II would state that SO far
as have been able to find out there is
not q single working farmer in the coun-
try who favors reciprocity. and If the
farmers had a chance to vote on that
proposition the vote against it would be
in the ratio OF 1000 to l. I receive regu-
larly each week about forty farm jour-
mails published In all sections of the coun-
try, and Of these only one has failed to
denounce reciprocity. and that one has
not dared to favor it."
