SOUTH DAKOTA
r. N. Carpenter Gives Readers His Inn
pres.ion az the Sunshine State

nraNnion Of the Sunsh1ne State
The memory of man has no long or
tiresome chase. to run back to the
time when lands IN the eastern part
Of the state were draught stricken,
and when settlers abandoned them to
70 back to Iowa, Minnesota, Wiscon-
sin and other states. In that same
region I have seen extensive drainage
enterprises on to free that territory
from excessive moisture. What is
true Of this section will in a short
time be true of the central and west
ern portions Of the state. Under
favorable conditions the well cult
waited soil of South Dakota. as | be-
lieve, will produce corn and other
grains equal to any section IN the
Mississippi valley. The product of
grains and grasses; of vegetables and
fruits are such as to force marvellous
growth OF these lands in values with
in very few years. Minnesota can
not equal our corn, cannot surpass
our hard wheat and would not beat
us on oats or potatoes. Readers OF
this paper will be surprised to know
that South Dakota's per cent of corn
yield per acre by government stats
tics for 1909 was second to only one
other state. / learn from govern
ment authority that South Dakota
for the year 1909 produced more corn
than all the New England states
combined and New York, New Jer
sey, Delaware, North Dakota, Mon
tana, Wyoming, Colorado, Nevada,
New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, Idaho,
Washington, Oregon and California.
The above twenty-one states did not
equal South Dakota's corn yield.
Rich in it's deposits of coal, gold,
silver and iron; ample in forests and
unsurpassed for the beauty and pic
turesqueness of its scenery South
Dakota is every foot of it a great
rich state. Wall Us 81 II ia : and can

no weak point in the foundation that
South Dakota is laying for great

ceeding fifty million dollars. Colleges
and charitable institutions dot the

few ounces Of hyposulphite Of soda,
which retails for about 10 cents a
pound at any drug store. and make a
saturated solution in a small quantity

all 1t will hold. Moisten or battle
spots where chiggers have burrowed
The solution apparently penetrates to
them and kills them, The solution has
no harmful effect aside from causing
a slight smarting on parts which have
