A CHANGE IN THE IMMIGRATION
MOVEMENT.

Little attention has been given to
The fact that, in the course CT the
year which is just closing, a marked
change in the movement of immigra-
ton to this country occurred. It is
only comparable in the recorded his
tory of American immigration to the
similar change which took place In
the years 1907-08 There has been a
great decrease in immigration cou-
pled with an equally large increase
in the number returning to Europe.
Between January 1 and September
go, 1911, only 450,670 persons landed
on our shore from the third class
cabins of the transatlantic liners.
While some ardent restrictionist
might assert that this total was large
enough, yet it was less than two
thirds the number who came to US
in the same class in the course OF
the corresponding period of last year.
The exact falling off was 27S,424, or
1918 per cent. Perhaps knowledge
of the fact that the number of those
who sailed eastward in the steerage
in the course Of the nine months
which closed on September 30 was
100000, or 6655 per cent Of the TO-
tai of those who entered, and an In
crease over the number who went to
Europe last year Of 35.47 per cent,

DISPUTE IS SETTLED
SUPREME COURT DECIDES A
CASE OF INTEREST TO
STATE TEACHERS.
OTHER ITEMS OF INTEREST
From the Capital City, the Various
State institutions and Diff
ferent Parts of the
State.

Gregory. - County Superintendent
Warner is in receipt f a telegram
from Pierre stating that the supreme
court has reversed the decision Of
Judge Williamson, of the district
court, in the famous Bonesteel school
controversy.
A year ago two of the members of
the school board removed from Bone
steel and the county superintendent
appointed J. r. Cash and J.. NJ. Big
gins to fill their uneXpired terms. Ri
val politicians claimed that the ap-
pointees only held over until the next
regular school election, and at that
time elected J. C. Alexander to the po-
sition of treasurer, which was held
by higgins. The latter refused to sur
render the books, acting on the advice
of the attorney general, and the case
was taken to the district court, where
Judge Williamson decided in favor of
Alexander. higgins carried the case
to the supreme court, with the above
result.
This decision will be of interest to
the teachers of the state as well as
teh boards of election.

WANTED TO BE AN AVIATOR
Missouri Girl Evidently Very Much In
Earnest In Her Desire to Nav
igate the Air.

Mr.. Claude Grahame-White, the IA
nous English aviator, is constantly
besought by young women to teach
them to become aviators. Many make
application by letter. One of these
letters reached him the other day
from a point in Missouri. Cleared or
it's errors in grammar, spelling and
capitalization, 1t read something like
this:
"Oh, Mr.. Grahame-White, teach me
to be a 'planer.' l saw one of them at
Kansas City and l think 1t is just
heavenly. l would like to run a
Wright ~monoplane or a Bler1ot bi-
plane, but If you have a better flyer
I would try that. I think l would ook
cute running a baby flyer. Pa says he
wouldn't mind my having a baby one.
Couldn't you bring one out here for a
week or SO and show me how to run
it? l assure you a good time"
Mr.. Grahame-White vas compelled
to decline the young woman's kind In
~vitation.

Cedar Posts by Express.

Pierre.-Under the new express
rates in this state it is generally
cheaper to send packages within the
boundaries of the state by express
than by freight. This is especially
true for shipments west of the Mis-
souri, river, where the railways have
held their freight rates to a higher
point than east of the river. For in
stance, the express rate per hundred
pounds between Pierre and Rapid City
is 50 cents under the present rate,
while the freight rate between these
two points is IS cents per hundred.
One day this week a large shipment Of
cedar posts from Rapid City to the
eastern part of the state went through
here by express, as they could be sent
that way cheaper than by freight. If
shippers generally find this to be the
rule, the shipments of goods and mer-
chandise on the yellow cars" will be
greater than those in the ordinary red
box car, and the express companies
will need to put on more men to ham
die their business.

and a much improved modification is
obtained by inserting two forked sticks
in the ground, about ten feet up to
the forks, and at a convenient distance
apart, and placing a horizontal pole
on them. The length of this pole will
determine their distance asunder.
Then set a number Of rails nearly up

PUT CONCRETE TOP ON TANK
Stout Platform Should Be Erected
Just Level With Top to Hold
Cover Until 1t Is Set.

In reply to a query as to the best
way Of putting a concrete top on a
circular stone supply tank, about 3
feet in diameter, the Breeders Ga
zette makes the following reply:
Make a stout platform in the ank
just level with the top to hold up the
cover until 1t Is set. AS this platform
should be quite tight, 1t had best be
covered with building paper or other
such material. AS one will want a
manhole to take out the lumber, he
can cut out the boards where this Is
to be and replace them by having
cleats nailed under them. The form
for this manhole should be made
tapering and out of 6-inch boards, say
IS inches at bottom and 90 inches at
the top. On each side Of the manhole
lay an inch round rod and have some
stout wire fencing cut ready for rein
forcing.
After placing an inch OF concrete
place the bars and the fencing which
should be double and then fill In the
concrete to 4 inches. If the cover Is
O to be for sustaining any weight
but It's own. If it Is to be the floor
of a building, then put In 6 inches or
concrete. AS soon as the concrete Is
set, or after n day, take out the
manhole box. line the hole with paper
and fill this with concrete. not for
getting to put in some kind Of ring by
which to lift 1t. After a week or ten
days lift out the cover of the manhole
and remove the wooden platform.
This cover car be made on a plat
form on the ground and then placed
on the tank. To do this It will be
best to use a reinforcing of half-inch
steel rods placed 6 inches on center
each way and tied with wire at inter
sections and then make the thickness
only 3 inches. Use a mixture of one,
two and three. That Is, one OF ce-
ment, two of sane and three Of crush
ed stone, non over half an inch in
diameter.

REASONS FOR SAVING STRAW
VIII Be Needed for Feed Owing to
S~hortness of Hay Crop-keeps
Live Stock in Comfort.

Owing to the shortneSs OF the hay
crop, straw will be valuable this win
ter for feed. 1t should be put into the
barn after threshing. If ricked In the
barnyard make one large, long, high
rick. Keep the middle full and well
trodden down, and make a good steep
roof. After the rick settles, top out,
rake off the loose straw from all sides,
then wire down to prevent the top
blowing off. The rick should be fenced
in to prevent the stock eating into the
sides. Dat straw, if it is not damaged
by rain, makes a better fodder than
straw. Mules, young cattle and
sheep can be carried through the win
ter on a straw and a small daily al
lowance of grain. We always give
our COWS a good fOrkful of clean dry
straw after they have eaten their
mixed feed. nave had an hours ex-
ercise and beer watered, says the
Baltimore American.
A large portion of the straw will be
eaten and what is left is used for bed
ding. A forkful OF wheat straw is
given to each COW in the morning and
also in the evening. Cows, mules and
young stock have all the straw they
want to eat and have also a good,
warm straw bed. The straw from 30
acres of wheat and 10 acres Of oats is
thus used every season; the stool is
kept In comfort, n a large quantity
of rich n is made, which is
hauled out and spread over the grass
as fast as made. A thick coat of ma
nure makes a rich sod, n sod makes
the corn to feed the stock.

An indian Bishop.

Pierre-An Indian is to be a real
bishop of the Episcopal church, haV-
ing in his diocese the red men of
South Dakota, if present plans are
carried out. In a call for an early
meeting of the house of bishops, there
seemed to some people to be an intl-
nation that a missionary district at
large might be created for Indians who
belong to the Episcopal church. A
district at large, permitting its bishop
to wander into dioceses of other bish-
ops to look after Indian COMMITMENTS,
was held to be so uncathOlic that pro-
test arose from half a dozen quarters.
Now Bishop futile of Missouri, who
is presiding officer and who called the
special meeting, answers the critics to
say that all that is contemplated is
the creation of a new missionary dis
trict within the counties wherein dwell
few save Indian people, n leaving
the remainder of the state to be an
other district, wherein are few save
whites. Bishops will be chosen for
two districts, if two are created, and
that for the indian district will be an
Indian, the first American Indian to at.
tain the rank Of bishop.
