Well, friends, we will now take
up the mule subject, and this copy
OF the Journal Is worth $50 to any
man. 1t costs you about cents so
there's $49.9S clear profit Amt
you happy!
AS / said in town Saturday, some
people in Audubon County, think
it difficult to break a mule, but
they are just afraid, that s. all. If
you had as many rides over the
saw-buck on mules pass as the
Audubon County Farmer had in his
days you could reflect now instead
you could look behind and it's al
ways wise to look behind when
you're near donkey-there is
where 80 percent of the action
comes from.
The first thing to do lis to gain
the mules confidence and respect,
and study his disposition. This
can be done best by turning him
into barn yard and with a good
field glass study him from the top
of the stable roof. You are more
apt to be unobserved if up above
the danger line and are safer.
Should the wind blow hard, tie
yourself to the roof. After the
mule is tied in the stable and the
door is shut you can come down
to eat. In this study you should
throw aside your prejudices and
view the animal with calmness, pa
thence, impartiality and non-parti-
samship.
In about one week you will have
enough courage stored up to form
a better acquaintance with him.
It is we'll to do this by pushing a
load of hay ahead Of you and have
your wife to watch and tell you
when to get under the wagon.
After a while the mule will get so
that he will eat hay out of the wag-
on and then you can sing to him
ITOlil u uIobdHCS dllu SLuuy Citt dH
gle of his hind legs by standing a
looking glass against the barn in
the back of him. Do this while
the mule is still absent. After you
have got SO you can memorize the
wrinkles on his hoofs, corner the
mule somewhere. The we'll is the
best place or the cistern will do if
there is plenty of water in it. Get
a halter on him and pull him ont
with a we'll derrick. If he has not
been in more than a week he will
be all right to leave alone in an
hour or two, when you can retire
and rest few hours and contem-
plate.
Feed the mule sugar if he likes
something sweet. You can do this

Insure Bumper Farm Crops.

MadisOn.-The improvement in tho
crop situation throughout South Dako-
ia because Of the recent heavy rains
has resulted in a revival of business
Of all kinds in all parts of the state.
The rains extended to practically
all parts of the state and have made
a wonderful difference in the crop sit
uation. Now people are talking with
confidence of South Dakota this year
producing a wheat crop which will
bring the farmers of the state a reve-
nue. of $500 0 900.
With n or two timely rains there
now appears little doubt that the state
will this year raise small grain, corn
and other crops worth between $175,-
900 600 and $500, 000, 900 this including
a $4,000. 900 gold production in the
Black Hills.
Some early sOwn grain is being har.
vested In a few limited localities, this
being confined to fall barley and rye.
Barley thus far harvested in Aurora
county will yield about 40 bushels to
the acre. A rye field which has been
harvested near MurdO. Lyman county,
Is estimated to yield from % to 40
bushels to the acre.

DEAD CASHIER FOUND SHORT
Man Who Robbed Farmers Of $4,000
at South Shore Also Took $500
from Bank.

Mitchell.-After making an examina.
ton of a week of the State bank at
South Shore, s. D., a representative
Of the state bank examiners office
found a shortage of $500 in the accounts
Of r. Fl. Villains. the cashier. The
bank has been closed temporarily. but
the depositors will lose nothing by the
shortage. Williams was associated
with a farmers elevator company at
South Shore. in which the farmers had
stored about $4,000 worth Of grain.
When the farmers commenced to make
a demand for their grain for shipment
to take advantage of the higher prices,
they discovered that there was no
grain in the elevator. Williams had
shipped all the grain, and received
about $4,000 for the same, which he
used in his speculations on the board
Of trade. He eventually lost all the
money. and then drew on one of the
grain firms for $500, which he placed
to the credit Of the farmers In the
bank. Anticipating a visit from the
banking department, Williams, rather
than bear the disgrace OF the expo
sure committed suicide. While the
shortage In the bank was apparent, ii
was several days before the examiner
found it, when a letter was discovered
written by Williams. which gave a full
explanation of the shortage.

Socialist List Barred.

Pierre.-The socialists have attempt
ed to file a list of electors to be placed
upon the ballot at the November cleo
ton, but the state secretary will de-
cline to file them, as the certificate
shows that they were selected at a
convention held at Sioux Falls on the
Sth day of June, when the primary
law provides tina all political parties
in the state shall meet in state con-
vention on the first Tuesday in July
following the primary, and that in 1912
and quadrenially thereafter they shall
at such convention select their list Of
electors and file the same with the
secretary of state. No attempt was
made to hold a convention on the legal
date fixed, but instead the certificate
shows that the convention was held
several weeks earlier. AS the matter
stands, it appears that the socialists
will have trouble getting their list OF
electors upon the ballot.

RENE Balm SUBMITS A RECIPE

Rene Balm never cared for the su-
perman nor even for the overcivilized
type of man. He never used the word
eugenics. Science and matter are to
him negligible factors when they are
not supplemented by culture and the
spirit.
In these days. when every one IS
greatly concerned with anthropocul.
ture, Balm had to come forth with his
little recipe for breeding good human
specimens.
The man whom tomorrow will de-
mand," he said in a recent address, is
the thorough and fearless man, the man
whs will do his work we'll and for
whom life will have no terrors. The
training of this man will require the
same methods as the training OF a
Christian, for If there eve- is a super
man he will be a Christian. If there
is a nobility whose ranks are open
to all it is the nobility OF Christianity.

TO DIVERT WATERS
PROPOSITION MADE TO UTILIZE
YELLOWSTONE AND MISSOURI!
RIVERS FOR IRRIGATION.
OTHER ITEMS OF INTEREST
From the Capitol City, tho Various
State institutions and From
Many Different Parts Of
tho Sunshine State.

Pierre.-H. c. Barlow Of PreshO Is
urging his plan for the construction
of a storage dam at the mouth OF the
Yellowstone river, and a drainage plan
to extend from that point in a south
easterly direction to empty into White
river not far from the mouth Of that
stream. His plan looks so strongly in
his ideas of conservation that he has
asked the people of western South Da-
kota to meet him at the court house
in Fort Pierre for the purpose OF form
ing a preliminary organization for Sc
curing this improvement. His call
goes into the details OF his plan. which
has for its purpose the spreading OF
surplus water of the Missouri river
over the plains of western South Da-
kota, and at the same time holding
back that much of the water which
works havoc and so many millions OF
dollars of loss every year on the low
er Mississippi section of the country.
Mr.. Barlow does not look upon his
plan as an easy proposition to carry
out so far as the financial features are
concerned, but insists that it is en-
tirely feasible SO far as the physical
features are concerned, as such a
ditch would have a fall Of about two
feet to the mile, and would supply wa
ter to an immense scope Of country
in which irrigation can be used to ad-
vontage for most Of the years. His
call for next Tuesday is backed by the
commercial clubs Of Presho and Fort
Pierre, who are willing to assist in
the movement all along the line, both
preliminary and permanent.
