Fires Are Raging In Hills

Despite the unusually dry summer,
there have been few forest fires of any
consequence in the Black Hills, due
largely to the lookout system estab-
lished by Supervisor Kelleter, and to
efforts of the Burlington road with it's
gasoline patrol cars.

CAMPBELL SYSTEM

Geo. J.. Nichols, prominent far
mer living out on Route No. 4, has
about $50 acres Of crop this year,
which includes 40 acres Of corn. Mr..
Nichols has a Campbell packer, and
while he has not used the machine
long enough to tell just what benefit
it has been to him, he is we'll pleased
with his prospects Concerning his
farm work this year he said
II have used the packer on nearly
all of my land tbs spring and so far
it seems to have given excellent re.
suits. Walk into any field that the
packer has been used on and you will
not go into the dirt over your shoe
tops. 1t has made by spring blowing
appear like fall blowing, SO well has
it packed it. OF course we farmers
who Try out new ideas make mistakes,
and realize that on one field, I made
the mistake of narrowing it too much
this year. The first crop l sowed on
that field was blown out and I i'm,
mediately re-seeded it to wheat. An,
other hard wind came along and
played havoc with the second crop
but the rains have brought it out nice

field. 1 don't condemn the Campbell
system at all, because of the error
that I made. Some years, it would
not have hurt a thing to have har
rowed the land so much. realize

HOW ENGLAND GROWS.

A great deal of interest is taken in
England in the question of coast pro
lection. The ocean, assailng the
cliffs, gradually tears them away, but
this very process furnishes a defense
for the land by building up long
beaches of sand and shingle, which
arrest the waves before they can a.
tack the cliffs. An effort is making to
prevent, or better regulate, the re-
moval of this material for construc-
ton and road building, because in
many places it's removal has permit
ted the sea freely to exert its power
Of erosion.
The Ordinance Survey has ascer-
tanned that in the last thirty-iye years
England has lots 664O acres by sea
erosion, and gained $4,000 acres
retaining land, the existence
OF which is mainly due to material
brought down by the rivers.--Youth's
Companion.

The Socialist party stands for the

The howl which we hear in favor

None of these issues touch the is

thing that can bring permanent re-
relief to the working class is the COL

To accomplish this, the working
