FEAR VILLAGERS
PLOT TO ASSUME
ENTIRE CONTROL
Township Residents in South
Orange May Lose Represen-
tatio1 In School Board.

Cttisens Of Houth Orangs are now
looking forward TO the second Of the
series OF three elections arranged In the
suburban village within two months.
This time both village and township
voters are interested, and principally
tho latter, because they are in fear
that h village residents. who by Tar
outnumber them. may lessen their rep
resentation on h Board OF Education.
The next election will be held In the
High School building on March 20 for
the purpose OF filling three vacancies In
the Board of Education, which governs
the schools In South Orange Village.
Mspiewocd and Hilton. In addition It
Is probable that the proposition Of Is
suing bonds for the purchase of q site
for a new school in the Hilton section
OF the township will DO voted upon.
Although the township, as well as the
village, iB included in the one school
district, II IL not absolutely necessary.
according to law, that the membership
OF the Board Of Education shall be d.
vided among the two municipalities,
and for h q reason the village voters
have repeatedly endeavored 70 close out
the township men. On ono occasion
tho question received 30 much consid-
GRAFTON that the village residents agt-
tatsd a special election for the purpose
Of voting whether the village should
be distinctly separated from the town
ship as a school district.
The real objection that the village
taxpayers have to being linked with
the township In school matters La that
the tax rate in the village il consider
ably higher, which results in the vii
lage residents having to pay two-thirds
OF the cost Of all schools and I'M
provements. Therefore. should the pur-
chase of a new site for the Hilton
be put up TO the voters. there
Is likely to be opposition on h same
basis again.

The Moisture Problem.

Under the above heading some years
ago, when Brown county and much
more Of South Dakota was suffering
greatly from long continued dry sea-
sons, VIM. Rehfield, a very successful
german farmer OF that country, made
the following pratical suggestions for
increasing the water supply OF a dry
country. AS two very dry seasons
have set many to talking and thinking
irrigation who ordinarily care little
for it, we believe the statements put
out at that time by MIR Rehheld will
interest many now. The time to take
advantage of these suggestions by
throwing up dams, etc. is near. The
article in substance is a follows:
The people in some parts of this
country did not raise enough to eat
this year, because of drouth and hot
winds, therefore We hear good deal
about irrigation again. 1t seems To
be somewhat expensive to irrigate
from artesian wells, for after spending
two or three thousand dollars on them
they run about six months and tnen
some of them choke up. But there Is
another, cheaper, and more practical
way to produce more moisture in this
part of the country. | mean to say
that if had my way about it, | would
build dam on every section line Of
public highway, wherever it crossed a
ravine, hollow, water-course, creek or
small river, except where the water
started from spring. The melting
snow and spring rains could not run
away tnen. but would cause numerous
small lakes or ponds, about one mile
apart, all over South Dakota. These
little lakes in turn would cause more
evaporation. more dew and more rsin
Someone might say that the melting
snow and spring rain would tear the
dams out faster than / could build
them. That might be true If began
building dams at the mouth Of a water
course. But would not do that. l

Black Hills to Get Elk Herd.

Within month United States
game warden will arrive in the Hills
to make his headquarters while he is
travelling about the Black Hills on a
tour to select location for the hero
of elk which it is proposed to establish
there. In this undertaking he should
not encounter much difficulty. The
herd might be turned loose almost any
place In the district and do infinitely
better than they are doing in the
Yellowstone national park where
hundreds of them starve to death every
year The Black Hills was once their
stamping.ground and conditions here
are as favorable to their pros perity
as they ever were.
The government officials are of the
opinion that it will take about two
years to unwind the necessary red tape
before the elk can beestablished here,
but an effort will be made to dispense
with all possible formalties and get
them in sooner. 1t would appear that
in face of the fact that the animals
are dying of in large numbers in the
vicinity of the Jackson Hole country
and the national park, the govern
ment officials would be anxious to get
as many OF them as possible out OF the
sections with the utmost expedition.
The fact that the elk are perishing al
an alarming rate is no secret. Maga.

all trains were late, and not
many ventured outside of their

also caught many of the new
homesteaders unprepared for so
severe weather and many suffer
ed considerably from cold and
exposure. There was general
disturbance in the weather all
over the United States during
this period. In Wisconsin, cy-
clones swept many towns and

All we would have to do would be to
put dirt in place of bridges This
