GOOD PROSPECTS
FOR LARGE CROPS

Last week Wednesday the first rain
of the season began to fall this and was
followed Friday, Saturday and Sunday
with fine rains that totaled over
two inches, by the report Of the COVER
nmet weather bureau here. These
rains have put the ground In the finest
possible condition and the outlook for
a bumper crop has never been bright
er. The greatest drawback from a
successful crop last year was the lack
of moisture in the ground in the spring
to start the grain. This is certainly not
the case this year as there is now
more moisture in the ground than there
ever has been at this time of spring
since we came here over five years
ago, and with anywhere near normal
rainfall forthis country large Yields of
all crops will be the results. The farm
ers in this locality were not discourag-
ed by the dryness of last season and as
large, if not larger. acreage of crops
will be put in and the few who left
last fall are rapidly returning, en-
couraged by the splendid outlook of
the season.

ELECTION RETURNS
MUST BE MADE

Pierre. April 10. = For three years
the state has had law requiring pre-
cinct officers to make unofficial re-
tnrns to county auditors in special en-
yelopes outside the ballot box returns
so that the county auditors will make
unofficial returns of the votes of their
counties to secretary of state imme-
diately after they secure the unofficial
returns from their precincts. This was
intended to hasten the securing of re-
turns following an election without
waiting for official courts. But as no
penalty was imposed, many precinct
officers failed to make the return, and
bunch of the county auditors made
no effort to get in reports.
In one case, the precinct officers
sent back their blanks with the words
mo cigars, no returns" written across

KADOKA TO HAVE
A CITY PARK

Kadoka is to have city park. The
work on the park has been going on
for the past couple of weeks and when
comdleted our town will have place
of recreation of which it may wei
feel proud. The park is located block
west and across the street from the
Hotel Dacotah corner. the block OF
land occupied by the park being do
mated by the townsite company und-
or the conditions that it be used for
park purposes and be improved in a
proper manner. The ground has been
plowed and the holes for planting trees
are being dug, and a very pretty ar
rangement has been made for the
laying out the walks and drives.
Through the center of the block from
east to west is miniature lake form
ed by the the water backed up by a
large dam built by the town last fall.
One drive will enter the park at the
southeast corner and in half circle
will come to the edge of the lake and
out at the southwest corner. A Sec
ond drive will enter the park at the
northeast corner and after making
the same half circle TO the edge of the
lake will leave the park at the north
west corner. Various walks will be
laid out about the park and small
foot bridge will be built across the
water on the west side of the park,
the large dam forming the crossing
on the east side. Trees will be set
out in very pretty arrangement and
the entire plat seeded with tame
grass.
1t is also proposed to erect band
stand on the north side OF the lake,
where afternoon and evening concer-
Is can be given.
A park is something which but verv
few of the small towns can boast and
is an addition to the attractiveness of
our town that every citizen of Kado-
ka may well be proud of. The ladies
of the town will haye charge of the
work Of improving the park and in a
short time it will be one OF the beauty
spots west of the Missouri river.

the face of the blank. The last session
has attempted to make the law little
more effective, and to this end has
provided that any precinct officer
who fails to make the unofficial re-
turn to the county auditor shall be de-
prived of his pay as such precinct Off
icer and that in case of the failure of
county auditors to make the return
within three days after the election,
the secretary of state is istructed to
send messenger to the county after
such returns, and the expense of such
messenger shall be charged to the
county, and the commissioners are in
structed to deduct the same from the
next salary voucher for such neglected
county auditor. This will mean that
the unofficial returns will come in
more promptly from this time on or a
lot of precinct officers will serve the
public without pay, and some county
auditors will pay for their neglect.
Another provision of the last session
attempts to prevent any candidate Sc
curing any benefit by his name appear
ing at the head OF the ballot in all the
counties of the state. 1t provides
that the county list shall be arranged
alphabetically, and the names of the
different candidates shall be certified
by the secretary of state to the audi
tors of the different counties in such
a way that all rotate to place each
one at the head of the ballot in some
of the counties of the state. This will
mean process of selection by the
force in the department of the secre-
tary of state which will keep them
busy tor time after the last of the
nominations are fled, and again for
the general election,
