NO MAPS

Since the notice appeared in
last weeks Record-Press request
ing all persons who have
been promised a map by
Mr.. Gaines, to send their name
and address to me, | have re-
ceived many letters, postal cards
and telephone calls in regard to
same, all requesting me to send
them their maps; in reply to all
| wish to say that | have nothing
to do with the matter and the
article published in last weeks
Record-Press was published
without my knowledge and with
out my consent. The facts that
led to the notice being published
are about this; Mr.. S. NJ. Jenkins
came to me as county attorney,
and said that Mr.. Gaines had
received subscriptions for the
paper by representing that he
would give each subscriber a
map; that the people were call
ing on him for the maps. and
that many claimed that they
would not have subscribed for
the paper, but for the fact that
they were promised the maps,
and wanted to know if there Wc.s
no way that Mr.. Gaines could be
prosecuted | told him that ii
he would furnish me with a list
Of names that | would submit
the matter to the grand jury.
and this is all that | have to dc
with the matter and all that
know about it. have no maps
and am not expecting any.
Respectfully,

Appellate Court
Over Rules Itself

About fifteen years ago DR..
McGraw patent medicine ven
der was arrested by the town
authorities, and imprisoned un-
der a town ordinance which was
unconstitutional. He sued the
town for false Imprisonment,
and the court of appeals uphelda
S4O0. judgement which McGraw
recovered.
Recently a case went to the
court of appeals against the city
of Barbourville involving the
same question of law, and the
McGraw case was relied on to
support a judgement. The
court of appeals. in deciding
that case, over rules the McGraw
case and says the McGraw case
lis contrary to both the previous
and subsequent decisions of the
court"

Referring to above will say
that my idea was not to give the
names to Mr.. Moore as he re-
quested but to let each person
who thought he had been de-
frauded report his or her own
name, thus allowing those who
do not wish to take the matter
before the grand jury to avoid
it by refraining from giving him
their names. If any wrong has
been done in the eyes of the law
you may rest assured John
Moore will ferret it out. So far
as we are concerned, we have
nothing to gain and nothing to
lose, and are interested only in
seeing that our readers get what
is due them. We do not know
what Mr.. Gaines aims to do
about the maps. altho we have
written him we have had nothing
from him since his published
statement in this paper in which
he said he had contracted for the
maps to be sent here as soon as
the census was completed.

ADVANTAGE Or a DUST MULCH.

ADVANTAGE or A DUST MULCH.
A friend who lives in Stanley county,
in the southwestern part of South Da.
kota. was telling us the other day Of
an interesting experiment that one Of
his neighbors made last year along the
line of narrowing field Of wheat aft
er it was up to conserve moisture
He divided an eighteen acre field into
two equal tracts One Of these he did
not touch after the grain showed above
the ground. The other piece he harrow
ed three times, adjusting the lever so as
to put the teeth at quite an angle. The
last time through the wheat stood four
teen inches high. AT harvest time the
plot that had not been dragged yield
ed nine bushels per acre. The other
plot that had been given a dust mulch
by dragging yielded eighteen bushels
This easy method OF conserving moiS
ture is an especially live problem with
every farmer in the semiarid sections
where the rainfall ranges from twelve
to eighteen inches per annum, vet the
principle is one that the farmer in the
humid sections might well put into
practice in dry seasons. There Is little
question that the benefit to be derived
from such dragging and breaking Of
the soil crust would be corresponding
