The Fruit Outlook.

The next month will practically
settle the status of the fruit crop
for 1912. If we have a large crop
of peaches the price is going to be
right as there is very light crop
promised from nearly all peach sec
tions. There is no question but what
the peach can be saved from frost by
orchard heating. The trees are close
together and the foliage dense max
ing it easy to hold the temperature
down.-A. c. Newton.

have found that It pays big re-
turns to select one acre of the best
land to grow seed oats on each year
and to keep this crop for seed only
and to buy new seed every two
or three years to plant on this acre
plot.
Under ordinary conditions believe
that we should change oat seed every
three or four years. for there. Is no
farm crop that will thrive better when
moved from one locality to another
than oats, or that will deteriorate
faster when grown on the same farm
year after year. or course proper
seed selection will help to overcome
this tendency. but few farmers take
that precaution.
Closely linked with the good seed
question comes that OF selecting or
planting healthy seed. and have
found It good plan to treat all oat

kill the smut spores and insure healthy

DIFFICULTY IN

CantcIoupe Troubles
May be Checked By
Spraying.

When blight attacks the cantaloupe
then the hopes OF the grower Wits, as
well as the leaves of his plant--it ia
usually hard case to cure.
Leaf blight is the most common of
cantaloupe troubles. The leaves be-
come covered with light. to dark
brown. generally circular spots. which
increase in size and finally coalesce.
resulting In complete whiting and
curling OF the leaves.
The spots commonly show fine and
rather indistinct concentric markings
such as are found In the common
alternaria blight OF the potato. The
leaf stalks and vines are SO affected.
The blight is caused by fungus
which may at least be checkedy by
spraying with bordeaux
The first application should be made
when the vines are from IL to Is
inches long and then every two weeks
during the season.
The bordeaux mixture should be OF
the usual strength--six pounds OF blue
stone and six pounds OF lime to so gal
Ions of water.
The greatest care should be taken to
get down on the under side Of the
leaves with the spray. Use a. hand
pump on small plots with fine spray.
II this does not save them nothing

The State Fair will include the
customary Indian village of native
South Dakota Indians in full war
paint and feathers. 1t is reputed
that If he is able to make the trip,
the old Indian who killed General
Custer will be on exhibition.
Among the attractions, we must of
course include the wireless telegraph
exhibit with actual demonstrations.
Each visitor may make an actual and
practical test of this modern inven-
ton for himself. Horne's Wild Ami
NAL Show will be a source of amuse-
ment for all who are interested In
a complete collection of wild ami
mails, birds and reptiles. To sum it
up, no State Fair will EXCEL that of
South Dakota in the number and
quality of attractions and IL
ments. All the best will be present

A GREAT STATE FAIR
In Reputation and Material Equip
ment, the S. ID. State Fair Ranks
At the Top

The South Dakota State Fair Is
rapidly winning the reputation OF be-
ing the most up-to-date exposition
of the West. In fact, persons who
know declare that in proportion to
population and development, the
great far Of our state Is excelled no.
where in the world In attendance,
quantity Of exhibits. and the quality
of both.
Last years record was one to mar
vel at and conjure with. In the mid
die OF June, the states of the Missis-
sippi valley were hit by a damaging
drouth, and for a time, a successful
State Fair at Huron was considered
in despair. For a short time, 1t was
thought hat but few counties could
sen creditable exhibits. But the
pioneer spirit of South Dakota got
busy with the result that the 1911
fair was the greatest in the history
of this state. 1t effectually ST.
fenced the declaration of other states
that South Dakota was down and
out" No other advertising medium

To BE Demonstrated For
State Fair Visitors

Two stations Of wireless t~elegra.

the grounds each day OF the State
Fair at Huron. What is more. every
South Dakotan who visits the Fair
will be given an opportunity to make
a practical use Of this the most won.

tance communication. How wireless
brought the Carpathia to the aid Of
the Inflated Titanic, how Jack Binns

ocean liner Republic, and other Won
derful performances will be clearly
explained.
TWO young men, n OF whom is

National Guard OF New York, go into
the subject fully, and carefully, and
will explain the uses of wireless in
the army and navy. and will describe
an experimental communication be-

communications at station number
one, and then receive a copy at sta

feature of this exhibit will doubtless
be appreciated by all who attend the

STATE FAIR ADJUSTMENTS
More Elaborate Than Ever Before.
More Sensational and More
Instructive.

The finest and most expensive list
Of free attractions ever presented to
the West has been secured this year
for the South Dakota State Fair, in
GLIDING the great sensational areo-
plane meet and the new refined
vaudeville acts between races. Three
aeroplanes, one French monoplane,
and two biplanes, Wright and Cur
tiss types, will each give two daily
flights at the same time. Only ex.
positions Of a guaranteed high stand
ing can secure this costly attraction,
and its appearance at the South Da-
kota State Fair is an evidence OF the
vast progress made by this institu-
ton.
Between races in front Of the
grand stand will be presented a Sc
ries Of the most exclusive and refin-
ed vaudeville acts yer shown in this
part OF the country. The bill is
headed by the Marco Twins, said to
be the worlds greatest laughing hit.
This is their last appearance in
America, for they are booked to
open in Frankfort, Germany on Oct
ober 1st. The Patterson troupe of
young lady ~aerialists is claimed to
be the highest priced aerial novelty

DEMOCRATS LOSE FIRST MOVE

The democrats have made their first
move in what promises to result in an
appeal to the supreme court in regard
to filing out places on their tickets
which We're not provided for in the
primary. Chairman Coffey has sen to
the secretary Of state a certificate
placing in nomination Robert p. Ste
wart of Deadwood, as a regular demo-
cratic nominee for supreme court in
the First district. This has been re-
jected by Assistant Secretary Nelson
on the ground that the only power in
the committee is to fill a vacancy,
and as they never attempted to make
a nomination for that place. no vacan-
cy exists. 1t is reported that the dem
ocratic committee expected such ac-
ton on the part of the secretary, and
hat they are prepared to bring an
action in the supreme court to force
the name on the ballot if possible.
Failing in this they will probably place
Stewart in nomination as an independ-
ent candidate.

INTEREST IN IRRIGATION

That the entire northwest and par
ticularly the state of South Dakota is
awakening to the importance of the
great plains irrigation movement is
evidenced by the press comment and
the Endorsements received by the Off
GERS of the organization which was
perfected in Fort Pierre last month.
The agitation of irrigation in this
state is not only influencing many
private individuals to install irrigating
plants, but it has helped to influence
corporations to such an extent that
they are buying up tracts of irrigable
land along the rivers and so confident
are they of the future success of these
projects thct they are selling this land
practically on crop payments.
Irrigation booster clubs are being
formed all ove the state and the a5so-
citation conteTplates sending out boos-
ter automobiles in a short time to visit
the various industrial centers and to
awaken them to the necessity of Co
operation between the commercial
clubs and the irrigation association.
Some twenty-five delegates and com
mittee men from South Dakota will
attend the national irrigation congress
at Salt Lake City next month and it is
believed that their reports when made
public will reveal some startling de-
velopments along irrigation lines.
Since Pro-. Etchegeyen, the great en-
cheering expert Of Paris, created the
sensation in France by proposing the
irrigation of the Sahara desert in Afri-
ca by using the waters of the Mediter-
anean sea, the world has shown signs
OF awakening to the importance OF
these subjects.
The indications are that since the
northwest has been awakened on these
matters, North and South Dakota will
lave 40 opportunity to lose interest in
conservation and irrigation, and the
lower Mississippi states are reawaken-
ed annually by the spring food waters
which should be conserved so that the
nation may expect to be affected by
the results Of these cold water awaken
ings in the south and the advance of
the great plains irrigation movement
In the northwest.
