STOCK YARDS At SIOUX FALLS
Melvin Grigsby and r. r. Pettigrev
Head Big Company

Sioux Falls-Col. Melvin Grigsby
and Hon. r. F. Pettigrew, have laid
before the business men of this city
plans for the establishment of stock
yards here as business proposition
Of exceptional merit and urgency now
that the Morrell company packing
plant has PIT Sioux Falls in situa-
ton to become one OF the largest
stock markets in the Northwest.
Col. Grigsby went into the details
at length. He had an architect draw
a diagram showing the location Of the
proposed stock yards Mr.. Grigsby
some time ago purchased tract Of
fifteen acres Immediately south Of the
Morrell company packing plant. The
diagram showed about one-fourth of
this plated, showing the hog and cat
tie pens, the location of scales and
stock exchange building. The capac-
ity of the yards as shown will ac-
commodate 5000 head Of cattle and
about 1000 head Of hogs. His esti-
mate as to the cost was placed at
about 100000. Senator Pettigrew
thinks it will cost more than that He
stated that himself and Mr.. Pettigrew
would put up one-half of the cost of
the yards to do business and desires
that the balance Of the stock be sub
scribed by the citizens Of Sioux Falls
and this community. Mr.. Grigsby has
recently visited the stock yards at
Sioux City and st. Paul and gave the
names of a number of commission
firms in both cities who will open up
~Ae hn or1C oR "a
ready for business.
1.-THE great value Of these yards
said Mr.. Grigsby sis the supplying OF
a market place where stockmen can
ship their stockers and feeders and
find a market and also place where
farmers can always buy that class OF
stock to ship to their farms to fatten
for the market" He told Of the
great business being done at Sioux
City in that line. He referred also
to the fact that 1t would mean
sales point where fine cattle, horses
hogs and sheep would be sold at auc-
ton.
Senator Pettigerw said that he had
made some money the last two years
and he was ready to invest 1t, as he
always had, in any good enterprise
"And it is no secret here that l have
paid for some poor judgment, but
am here to make other investments
and I consider this stock yards prop
osition SO good a thing that I am
ready to put in as much money or
more than will my friend Col. Grigs-
by. stand ready to back the propo-
sition. have always believed that
Sioux Falls had great future, and
with the establishment OF the great
Morrell packing plant, the Queen Bee
mill soon to become a great FIGURING
mill industry, Sioux Falls never look
ed better to me. and / am going to
continue to show my faith in this
city by putting my money into Sioux
Falls enterprises"
The Incorporation papers have been
sent to Pierre and stock subscriptions
will be secured as rapidly as. possi'

REAU ON AGRICULTURAL
DATA OF STATE
SOUTH DAKO1A'S GROWTH
Has Been Solid and Substantial and
the Splendid Showing in Agri-
culture Marks the Line
Of Her Advance

South Dakota, with its broad
prairies and its rugged Black
Hills, offers opportunity alike
to the farmer and the pros
pectOr. Unusual opportunities
are offered to all who are seek
ing new homes. The influx Of
settlers to the state during the
past few years has been enorm-
GUS, but there yet is room for
thousands of additional settlers
on her lands. Much yet remains
to be done in settling up the
newer portions Of South Da-
kOta.

Pierre-The state land department
Is receiving so many inquiries as to
the rightes of leases of state lands
under the provisions of the law, which
provides for the cultivation OF state
lands, that they are sending out a cir
cular letter to all holders of state
lands under lease, as to the rules
which govern. The department will
not make any agricultural leases this
year, as it will be impossible to get
the provisions of the new law into
practical working shape until too late

Many authorities are inclined to dis

In his comprehensive book on We
hicles of the air Victor Lougheed. en-
gineer and student of aviation, en-
phasizes a few points on the relation
of the aeroplane to warfare that serve
to bring out his notion that the day
is not far off when the expenditure
of millions for dreadnaught battle
ships will be unknown.
The engineer believe many things
are possible with the aeroplane and
compares the aviator dropping de-
structive shells into the vulnerable
works of modern battleship from
his aerial position to bringing down
ducks with little shotgun.
'If one aeroplane at cost of. say.
$500, does not destroy a battleship,'
says Mr.. Lougheed. why, so or 100

upon getting guns that would destroy
the daring aviator If he flew low
enough to make accuracy possible in
hitting a battleship. and they may say
that If the aeroplane destroyer flies
beyond the range of those guns he
would not be able to drop a shell
where it would do its work.
"They may forget, however. that the
funnel of great battleship offers
wide target, and that perfect swarm
of the little, destructive biplane gnats
might be turned loose over battle
ship and some one of them might drop
the shell in the funnel. You could

planes. for less than the cost of one
battleship.

commemorative exercises when under the
auspices of British diplomats are always espe-

within the memory of official Washington be-
ing the memorial service in honor of the late
King Edward. which was held in Washington
at the same hour that the funeral was held in
England Such services are attended by the
president of the United States and the mem

such commemorative events In Washington Is

is located directly opposite the White House.
Unfortunately the general public gets never
peep at such ceremonals because the church
is tiny one. seating only few hundred per-

to be reserved for the diplomats and public
officials who by virtue of their positions
