Christmas Advice

Aberdeen News: An organization
which devotes its energies to sup
pressing the number and the serious
ness of fires, has issued a number of
rules for Christmastide, which. if
followed, will materially reduce the
number of fires connected with the
holiday. The suggestions and COM
ments of the organization are as
follows, and thoughtful people will
find they are all timely and worth
while:
Every year in America many chill
dren are burned to death by fire
from Christmas candles.
Do not decorate your Christmas
trees with paper, cotton, or any in
fiamable material. Use metallic tin
sci and other non-infiamable decora.
tons only, and set the tree securely
so that the children in reaching for
things cannot tip it over.
Do not use cotton to represent
snow. If you must have snow, use
asbestos fibre. Do not permit chill
dren to light or re-llght candles
while parents are not present. They
frequently set fire to their clothing
instead, The tree itself will burn
when needles become dry.
Do not leave matches within reach
of children at holiday time. Candles
are meant to be lighted, and if the
children can get matches they will
experiment with them, They imi-
tate their elders.
A home of merriment is better
than a house of mourning.

Good Roads Meet Called at Huron

Huron, Dec. 6.-Secretary Wood,
of the South Dakota Good Roads
Association. has called a meeting to
be held at Huron Friday, Dec. 20.
At this gathering plans will be form
ulated for the conduct of a legisla-
tive campaign in the interest of
good roads. Laws modelled after
those in other states will be drawn
and the members asked to enact
them.
Besides asking for state aid and
the appointment of a good roads
commission the bill will contain a
clause recommending that convict
labor be employed in the construc-
ton of highways across the state.
At Pierre about the middle of Janu-
airy there will be held a state con-
servation congress and at this it is
proposed to make the Improvement
of highways one of the prominent
features.
Two of the counties in the south
eastern part of the state have filed
petitions with Secretary Wood ask
ing that the convicts be compelled
to build proposed highways and chat
legislation providing for this be en-.
acted.

TO REVISE
GAME LAWS
Some Sportsmen Favor Fish
Hatchery; Some Game Farm

Huron, S. D., Dec. 6.-The gath
ering of sportsmen from various
parts of the state here Wednesday,
is likely to result in a number Of i'm
portant changes in the game laws
of the state. Sportsmen came in
response to a call by w. F. Ban
croft. state game warden. the pur-
pose being to discuss matters direct
ly concerning sportsmen of the
state, chief of which was the revis-
ion of the game laws.
What disposition should be made
Of the $40.0 0 now reposing IN the
vaults of the state treasure. known
as the game fund. received no small
attention. The decision was finally
, reached that at least $40, 900 should
be used in establishing a hsh hatch
cry within the boundaries of the
state; $4,000 could be judiciously
expended in providing a farm for
J the rearing of phsasants with which

| and woodlands of South Dakota with

! would propagate and care for gen.

| ed would thrive marvelously in this

ated by the sportsmen of the state,

LEADERS MEET
TAKE NO ACTION
Republican Get-Together Move.
ment Postponed

Washington, Dec. 7.-Republican
Governors from a dozen states and
party leaders IN congress with whom
they conferred today have agreed on
no definite steps toward the re.or-
ga~nization of the republican party,
and the re-alignment of its working
forces are practical within a year.
Opposition from the progressive
republicans, whom it is desired to
bring lntoithe movement; and apathy
on the part of the men who have
been identified with the party's
greatest activity, have helped to con-
vince the leaders in the re-organiza-
ton movement that no concerted
plan should be undertaken until late
next year.
A conference planned by Cover
nors Hadley of Missouri and Tenor
of Pennsylvania and presided over
by Governor Goldsborough of Mary
land, brought together today the re-
publican executives from states COW
ering the entire area where the pro.
gressive republican fight was most
severe in the recent campaign. The
conference called for an exchange
of views and nothing further was
attempted by those behind the move
ment. 1t became apparent that any
general plan for reorganization will
embrace the reduction of the repre-
s~entation from the Southern states
and the adoption of the primary
systems for the selection of dele
gates to the national convention of
the party.
Among the northwest governors
in attendance were: Eberhart of
Minnesota, Vessey of South Dakota,
Governor-elect Hanna of North Da-
kota, McGovern of Wisconsin.

FOURTH ANNUAL
CLUB BANQUET
Large Crowd Enjoys The Annual
Event

Tuesday evening a large crowd of
citizens. consisting of Commercial
club members and their families,
gathered at the club rooms and the
opera house to enjoy TIE fourth an
nual banquet of the Club. The
evening started with music by the
Weller Orchestra, followed by a
happy address of welcome by Mayor
Christ, and response by President
Fl. J. Bushfeld, pleasantly introduc-
ed to the audience by Judge Pussy.
Then an old-time minstrel show
was put on by Messrs c. M. Dwyer
and !. Z. Hambly. assisted by local
talent. which certainly gave the aud
ience one of the best entertainments
seen in the opera house for some
time. In addition to the orchestra
and minstrel musical were special
songs by Mrs w. G.. Redmond, and
Master Paul Pusey. baritone solo by
Dick Davis, and violin solo by Miss
Marie Coquillette accompanied on
The piano by Miss May Saltmarsh.
The Minstrel Co. consisted of |. E.
Hambly, Hhas. Ross, H. Parry, Oar

e. Garrett. Geo. Richardson. Dick
Preston, Chas. Morrow, all of whom
displayed individual and collective
talent in singing or stunts of one
kind or another, with G. M. Dwvel
as mterlocutOr.
After a couple of hours of thi!
rather unusual entertainment the
crowd adjourned to the Vanderbilt
Hotel, where Mine host G.. F. Flynr
and wife had a spread which coulC
scarcely be excelled. and with which
the banqueters expressed them

LAND SHOW
AT CHICAGO
Many Thousands of People See

Chicago. Dec. 9.-Land show ex-
hibits, so far as South Dakota is
concerned. are a thing of the past,
for on Sunday evening the United
States land show in the Coliseum
building here closed. completing a
month of most effective campaign
ing for the Sunshine state, under
the direction of immigration Com
missioner John Deets.
The total attendance, paid and

over double that number, Thous.

lightened on the resources of our

ing the only other state 10 be repre-
sented at this show as a state, some
of the others being represented in
part or by various sections or COM
mercial clubs. Mr. Deets employed
a new system in handling those most
interested in South Dakota this year,
having them sign p~ersonlly cards
stating in what part or what indus
try in the state they desired to know
about. These will be filed, CLASH
fed, answered and a better tab can
be maintained on the actual results
of the land shows. Many good
names have been daily added to this
list and prospective settlers for the
state r not a few.
1t al be truthfully said that
South Dakota has not suffered by
comparison with the productions
from the wheat and grain field;
the apple and fruit orchards o the
truck gardens of the richer and old,
err and better known localities,
either in Canada, the south or the
northwest. Instead it has taken It's
place in the front rank of rich and
growing states as one that presents
unlimited possibilities TOT the fu,
ture. Its mineral showing from the
Black Hills was practically the only
mineral exhibit at either Mnreapo,
lis or Chicago. Proof that nearly
every known mineral is found in the
Black Hills, the play ground of
South Dakota, which was so vividly
portrayed in the handsome colcred
illuminated panorama of DeadwOod.
Commissioner Deets has lectured
constantly on the states resources
and attractions to highly interested
audiences, illustrating with slides OF
every section and that the work at
the 1912 land shows has been a sue,

Dakotans who have attended The

FARM EDUCATION

Enlarged Facilities Needed For

Masses
BY II II. SToNER

The lag makers Of South Dakota
probably never passed a measure of
more far reaching Importance than
when they provided means by which
Farmers Institutes might be con
Quoted throughout the state. Farm
ing is as much of an art, if not a
science, as many of the other learned
professions, but it is only within re-
cent years that this fact has been
recognized to the extent of the es-
Enlistment Of Agricultural Colleges
wherein the art and science of farm
ing is taught. Within the memory Of
middle aged men such a thing as an
agricultural College was not known,
and such men never had the oppor-
tunity of an Agricultural Education.
Even today only a small percent of
the young men of our state can avail
themselves of its advantage. Rec
ognizing these facts, the South Da-
kota Legislature a few years ago
determined that if the average
farmer could not go to school. that
it would provide the means by which
the school could go to him. Thus The
Farmers Institutes were organized.
From the meagre beginning Of an
appropriation of $4,000 per annum
and an attendance of something like
ten thousand farmers the first year,
the work has gradually grown to an
appropriation of $l3, 900 per year and
attendance last year Of sixty thou.
