Operators of Steam Threshers
Must Secure Bonds.

While quite a few operators
OF steam threshing machines have
complied with the statute which
imposes ON them the duty of fill
a $500 bond with the county
clerk of courts or to carryy a
special $500 policy in any sol
vent fire insurance company, to-
indemnify the loser in case of
damage by fire, it is known that
many threshermen have so far
neglected to comply with this
provision. AS a violation of the
law is punishable by a $500 fine, it
will be we'll worth their tme to
study its provisions. The law
says:
cit shall be unlawful for any
person to use steam threshing
machine in this state until he
shall first enter into bond with
good and sufficient surety in the
sum of $500, payable to the state
said bond to be approved by and
filed with the clerk Of the cir
cult court Of the county whore

dent of this state, and if he be a
nonresident, with the state audi
tor conditioned to pay all dam
ages arising from any fires caus-
ed by him in violation of the pro
visions OF this article, and from
any unlawful damages dome or
caused to any telegraph or teIe,
phone line by the moving of any
traction engine, threshing ma
chine or other vehicle or other
thing along or across any public
highway; !; or in lieu of the fore
going bond at his option the
owner or operator Of steam
threshing machine, operating in
the state OF South Dakota, may
take out a fire Insurance policy
to the amount Of not less than
$500, in any solvent fire insurance
company which may be legal y
authorized to write insurance in
this state, providing for the pay
| ment of any loss or damage by
fire caused by said threshing ma
(, chine or engine and payable to

The Yield.

1t is a little early to get rell-
able information on the crop
yield in this vicinity, as very few
farmers have threshe'd, as yet.
However, we have been able 10
secure Il few averages which lcok
pretty good to us.
A 100 acre field Of velvet
chaff wheat ON the John Doyle
farm 3 1-2 miles northwest OF
this city, averaged - bushels to
the acre. This farm is in charge
Of Robt Eagen, and the yield
proves that Bob is some farmer.
Forty acres OF velvet chai't'
wheat harvested by Fred South
wick on the Schloe farm 3 miles
east of town yielded % bushels
per acre.
On a quarter section OF the
S. w. Smith farm, is miles
northwest of Sisseton, the vel
vet chaff averaged 35 bushels to
the acre and the blue stem %
bushels.
Dave Eastman, whose farm is
i6 miles south of this city
threshed IS bushels Of oats to the
acre, and on the w. X. Morris
Ilfarm half mile south of town,
which is under the supervision
Of Barney Smith, the oats yield
ed Is bushels per acre.
The barley yield is reported at
all the way from 30 to 40 bush
els per acre.
A large amount OF stacking
has been done, this season, and
threshing operations will be con-
tinued far into the fall.
The first of the 1912 crop TO
| leave this station was carload
of barley. which was shipped on
Thursday of last week by the
Sisseton Mill & Light Co. The
following day, the Turner Ele-
vator No. l shipped the first car.
load of wheat, the second cal
being shipped by the Empire Ele
vator No. 3, Friday evening. The
new grain is grading fine, prac-
tically all of the wheat so far
received being No. l Northern.

To All Who May Be Concerned

In order that South Dakota
may creditably cooperate in
the Grand Patriotic move OF
celebrating the fiftieth anniver-
sary of the Battle of Gettys-
burg, as a Grand National Peace
Jubilee, by the blue and the gray
and also i'm order that South
Dakota shall be represented at
said Peace Jubilee, by our full
delegation of Gettysburg battle
veterans, within this state (both
Union and Confederate veterans)
CaptainN. H. Kingman of Selby
South Dakota was appointed by
Governor r. S. Vessey as Spe-
clal State representative to look
after those interests for our state
In his own way he will seek to
find said veterans and to secure
their respective affidavits of ser.
vice in said battle.
This, to be done, as far as
possible prior to meeting OF our
Legislature January and' February
1913 Said affi'davits being es-
sential to secure appropriation
to cover cost of transportation OF
our state delegation to and from
Gettysburg, Penn, next July.
Captain Kingman cordially sol
icits correspondence from any
and all veterans or others, who
may be interested.

The VetOes.

1t has been a good many years
since Congress has had as many
vetoes as those faced. during the
past few weeks, and while there
has been a lot of sputtering
about Capitol Hill, yet there has
been nothing surprising in the
things that have taken place, as
the house leaders knew exactly
what to expect in advance Of the
passage Of their tariff and appro-
priation bills, loaded down with
special legislation. The objects
desired all around have been ac
complished, and in a month the
campaign will be in full swing
everywhere, and the bills that
were made emily to be vetoed will
be the basis of discussion on the
stump by the orators of the diff
ferent political parties.

All Tariff Legislation Fails.

The fable of the crocodile that
wept while it ate its victim has
an analogy in the disappointment
of the democratic tariff revi-
sionists of the house of represen-
tatives, who have been pouring
their tales Of woe into the pages
of the Congressional Record for
the purpose of later distributing
these speeches as ''public docuz
ments' throughout the country
while in secret they are chuck
ling because their plan to "play

Ii no provision has been made for

green corn will be the only re-

to the general belief, it has been
found that some of the richest
land on the continent is included

that have been successfully
drained. Some spectators taking
advantage Of this fact have
been marketing broadcast other
EvergLade lands that are so
deep under water that their pur.

buys this Florida property shoule
make a personal inspection of his
Investments first, otherwise he
may find to his SORROW that his
property is good for nothing lest
it be for boating or swimming
purposes, and his deed should
convey the possession by the
gallon Or quart rather than by
the acre. Evidently, Secretary
Wilson and some Of his young

being scolded by congress for
their carelesssness.
