ISOLATION will be held here, Jan. 30th
to Feb. 3rd. This organization has
made great progress during the
past few years, and to u Knowledge

being ITO different animals, repre-
senting 10 different breeds and ex-
hibited by some fifty different breed
ers, all from South Dakota.
These sales are becoming recogniz-
ed as a place where first class &C
climated breeding stock can be pur-
chased at it's actual value.
In the past, foundations for new
herds and fiocks have been secured at
these sales. Several b eeders have
changed from one breed to another.
on account of attending these meet
ings and sales and many a small,
breeder has come into p ominence by
having a few good animals on ex-
hibition.
This year there will be sold Per-
cheron stations, Shorthorn Hereford,
Aberdeen-Angus. Po'led Here ord and
Red PoIIed cattle. Duroc-Je~ sey, Po-
land-China and Chester-White swine
and Shropshire sheep.
These sales will be held in the
new heated sale pavilion recently
erected at an expense of s. 10000 by
the state, which insures that every
animal and visitor will be comfortable
during the week.
At the same time the South Da-
kota Poultry show will be held in
Mitchell. The Western Passenger AS
ISOLATION has made an open rate OF

in South Dakota.
This annual event Is becoming wide
ly known, and in the past many visit
ors from other states have been or

IT Is A MISTAKE

Many have the idea that anything
VIII sell II advertised strong enough.
This Is q great mistake. True, a
few sales might be made by advertis.
Ing an absolutely worthless article
but 1t 10 only the article that is
bought again and again that pays.
An example OF the big success OF a
worthy article In the enormous sale
that has grown up for Cascarets
Candy Cathartic. This wonderful rec
ord Is the result of great merit sue
cessfully made known through per.
sistent advertising and the mouth-to-
mouth recommendation given Cas-
carets by it's friends and users.
Like all great successes, trade pi-
rates prey on the unsuspecting pub
lie, by marketing fake tablets similar
In appearance to Cascarets. Care
should always be exercised In pur-
chasing well advertised goods, espe-
cially an article that has q national
sale like Cascarets. Do not allow a
substitute to be palmed off on you.

NURSE TELLS OF SKIN CURES

II have seer the Cuticura Remedies
used with best results during the past
twenty years. In my work az . nurse,
many skin disease cases came under
my observation, and in every In.
stance, / always recommended the
Cuticura Remedies as they always
gave entire satisfaction. One case In
particular was that of a lady friend
OF mine who, when a child, was at.
ftcted with eczema which covered her
face and hands entirely, breaking out
at intervals with severer torture. She
could not go to school as the disfigure.
ment looked terrible. / told her to get
at once a set of Cuticura Remedies.
After the use of only one set she was
perfectly we'll.
"A grown lady friend was afiicted
with salt rheum in one of her thumbs,
and she was cured by the Cuticura
Remedies. Still another lady had dry
salt rheum in both palms Of her hands
every fall Of the year.. They used tc
be 80 painful she could scarcely wet
her hands until she began to use the
Guticura Remedies which cured her.
/ have also see them cure children
of ringworm. The children's faces
would be all circles and rings around
the cheeks, and the neck and after
treatment with the Cutioura Soap and
Ointment they were completely cured.
My husband had rheumatism on his
arm and I used the Cuticura Oint.
ment. 1t made his arm as timber and
nice, whereas it was quite stiff before
I began to apply the Ointment.
Last May I had an ingrowing toe
nail which was very painful, as the
side of the nail was edging right
down in the side of my toe. / cut
the nail out OF the cavity it made, and
of course applied the Cuticura Oint-
ment to the part affected. 1t soothed
1t and In less than ten nights it was
all healed through constant use of the
Ointment. Ten days ago I had my
left hand and wrist burned with boil
ing lard, and Cuticura Ointment has
completely cured them. l have just
recommended the Cuticura Remedies
to another friend, and she is pleased
with the results and is recovering
nicely. I will gladly furnish the
names of the people referred to above

Chill DREN BADLY BURNED
Pour Kerosene on Live Goals in Steve
and Explosion Follows

Springfeld-The IN Jury to four 1t
tie girls. three Of whom were burn
ed so BADLY that their recovery is
very doubtful and a financial loss OF
about $500 to the home OF George
Dawes of this city is the resut OF
pouring kerosene on a fire into the
cook stove about which the children
were enjoying a taiy-pull.
The ac ident occurred about
O'Clock in the afternoon. Two OF the
little girls are daughters Of Mr.. end
Mrs. Dawes, aged four and fourteen
respectively. Playing with them was
the ~6-year-old daughter Of Mr.. and
Mrs. Ross Crowley and the 4-yesr-old
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. William
Brown.
Attending physicians tonight state
that it is not thought possible that
the two Dawes children and the lit
tie Brown girl can recover, but the
little Crowley girl is not sc iou:ly
burned.
The children were having a merry
time in the kitchen of the home Pc
pairing for the making OF molasses
candy. The fire was not burning
well and in an effort to get more
heat under the kettle coal oil was
turned onto the hot Goals, A terrific
explosion followed.
The children hurried from the
house. thus saving their lives for the
time. Fire followed the explosion and
the damage to the house will be In
the neighborhood Of $500.
At the time. the children were al
most alone in the home, Mrs. Dawes
being iii in bed, and unable to do
much toward putting out the fire or
helping her girls. The father was not
at home.
The Dawes residence Is n Of TIE
very best homes in this city. Mr..
Dawes is a well-to-do farmer.

TEN MILLION PEOPLE
IN THE CANADIAN
WEST BY 1920
"Toronto starr Dec. 18th, 1910.

tn - Nv ~
The prediction Is made that before
1920 Manitoba, Saskatchewan, Al
berta and British Columbia will have
ten million people. 1t is made not by
a sanguine Western journal but by
that very sober business newspaper.
the New York Commercial. T. is
based upon actual observation, upon
the wheat-growing capacity OF the Ca
madam West. and upon the prospects
Of development following the build
ing of railways. The writer shows
how the position of leading wheat
market OF the world passed from
Milwaukee to Minneapolis and thence
to Winnipeg. Canada's wheat-grow-
ing belt Is four times greater than
that OF the United States, and only
ave per cent OF Canada's western agri-
cultural area Is under cultivation.
There are ITO, 900. 900 acres of wheat
lands which will make these Western
Provinces richer, o ~populous. more
dependable for food supplies than the
Western States can ever become. The
center Of food supremacy will change
to Canada, and rs years more Will
give this country 10000, 900 popula-
ton west of Ontario.
All these estimates OF population
are in the nature OF suesses, and must
not be read too literally. But the
enormous area Of wheat-growing land.
the rapid construction of railways.
and the large volume Of immigration
are facts which must be recognized.
They point to the produc;ioo Of an
everincreasing surplus OF vbest. and
other cereals. However rapidly the
urban. the industrial ara commercial
population OF Canada may increase.
the increase of home consumption is
hardly likely TO keep pace with that
OF the production Of wheat; for a sin
sic acre Of wheat will provide for the
sysrage annual consumption Of four
people.
While production In Canada Is thus
running ahead OF consumption at q
prodigious rate, consumption in the
United States is oysrtaking produc-
ton, and the surplus for export Is
growing smaller year by year. 1t In
true that the limit OF actual power to
produce wheat Is as yet far away.
BY methods Of intensive cultivation,
such as prevail In France. the produc-
ton could be greatly increased. But
with the overlooking granary of Can
ada so close at hand, 1t seems likely
that our n~eighbors will begin to i'm
port from us, turning their own en-
ergies more largely to other forms of
agriculture.
1t must be remembered that while
the Northern States resemble Canada
in climate and products, the resen
blance diminishes as you go south
ward. The wheat belt gives place to
a corn belt, and this again to semi.
tropical regions producing cotton, to-
bacco, cane-sugar, oranges and other
tropical fruits.
Western Canada at the present time
secures an investment better than the
best of bond OF any government or
bank. 1t is no unusual thing for a
farmer In Western Canada to realize
a profit Of from SIS to $40 per acre,
There are thousands of free home
steads of 100 acres each still to be
had, and particulars can be obtained
