vERNA THuSToN IN PIANO RECITAL

A most pleasurable event of last
week was the piano recital given by
Miss Verna Thuston. It is an altogeth.
or too rare an occurrence that local mus.
ical talent is encouraged by a demand
for public performance.
Miss Thuston had previously made a
favorable impression by her playing,
but her work on Thursday afternoon
was complete surprise to her many
friends.
A large and representative audience
had gathered at the Presbyterian
church to hear Miss Thuston after hel
summers study with Miss Merrill, q

STATE CONVENTION HERE WAS
BEST EVER HELD.
ATTENDANCE WAS LARGE
LIE. HICHLEY OF THIS CITY HoNORED
BY BEING CHOSEN PRESIDENT
OF THE ASSOCIATION.

The annual convention of the South
Dakota Pharmaceutical Association
held here last week was an entire sue
cess. The general opinion was that 1t
was one of the most interesting and
pleasurable the organization has ever
had. The papers and discussions we're
Of unusual Importance and profit to
the members, particularly as the mem
bers wished to know more of the pure
food and drug law Of the state and how
to most easily live up to its provisions.
The social features of the week we're
different from what can be offered in
most cities and we're highly enjoyed.
The attendance was also heavy.
The closing day of the convention
was full Of life and zest. The pill roll
lers and their ladies, together with the
druggists and doctors of this city, re-
paired to Trimmers grove where pic
MIC was held. The Ladies' Aid Society
of the Presbyterian church furnished
the dinner which drew them many
compliments.
The busiest man of the week was
Larry Highley, the local secretary, and
he was ably assisted by the other drug
men of the city. Mr.. Highley's efforts
we're recognized in the associations ac.
ton in naming him for president fol
the coming year. Other officers are
Frank H. Packard of Redfleld, lst vice
president; A. A. Woodward of Aber
deem, treasurer, and E. T. Bent, o.
Deli Rapids, secretary. Next years
meeting will be held in Sioux Falls.

FIGHT SMUT, SAVE GRAIN.
Millions of Dollars Loss Which
Might be Prevented Easily.

Smut is an insidious enemy that
causes millions of dollars OF loss an
nually in our small grain crops. 1t is
possible for men to grow grain year
after year, realizing that there is a
little smut present, yet utterly failing
to realize the percentage of loss that
it involves. 1t is one parasitic dis
ease for which there is a specific rem
edy, one that may bes applied at a
very small outlay for chemicals and
involving comparatively little labor,
While there are several remdies.
we have always preferred formalin in
the proportion OF one pound OF this
chemical to forty gallons of water
Formalin. it may be said, is 40 per
cent solution OF formaldehyde. Grain
to be treated should be spread out on
the barn floor and the mixture of wa
ter and formalin added until the
whole mass becomes thoroughly wet
Uniform wetting can only be accom-
plished by freely shoveling the grain
over and over. When we first began
treating grain for smut we used a
sprinkling can. thinking in that way
that we would do the work cautiously
and yet thoroughly But we very soon
learned that where any considerable
amount OF grain was to be treated a
sprinkling can was not necessary We
simply made trench through the
center of the grain and began pour
ing on our liquid with an ordinary
pail. When the water started TO seep
from the sides OF the pile the shovels
were then started. We learned that
a bushel OF grain would take up about
one gallon OF water. so that forty
bushels would require only one pound
OF formalin.
After the grain had been thorough
ly wet it should be shoveled into a
deep conical pile and covered with
horse blankets or some such material
to be left for a period of at least two
hours

How Irrigation Will Help.

In an address before the Hamilton
Club of Chicago, on irrigation, Mr.,
r. Isinger, OF Spokane, Wash. made
the following statements:
Irrigation invariably means inten-
sivc cultivation, and this in turn means
larger crops. Through the use OF
smaller tracts the country districts
become so thickly populated they re
semble suburbs of large cities; but
there is no congestion, nor is there
the menace of an underfed, poorly
housed population. 1t means the ideal
farm village. lighted by electricity,
furnished with domestic water
through pipes, good roads, rural mail
delivery. telephones. automobiles,
trolley lines and other modern con
vcniencies. 1t means a union OF the
social features of town and the health
ful ones of the country life and. as
some one has well said, the disap-
pearance of 'lonesomeness. without
the worse evil of overcrowding.

PRIZES FOR YOUNG TRAINERS
Western States Want Boys and Girls
to be Good Corn Growers.

Extension of encouragement To
out the corn states this season. The
results of last year in awakening new
interest in the farms and overcoming
some of the allurements of the cities
were such that State officials and
leading men in other walks are get
ting behind the movement. Prizes for
the best boy corn growers have al
ready been offered in Oklahoma and
Missouri.
The Oklahoma State Fair Associa-
ton will give as first prize a trip to
Washington with all expenses paid
and other prizes in cash. Farmers and
business men are adding other induce
ments. fhc contest is open to any
boy or girl in the State between the
ages OF nine and eighteen years. Each
and, and so far as possible, do his own
work, planting not less than an acre
OF corn and following the instructions
of the farmers cooperative demon
stration work. in which the Depart
ment of Agriculture is assisting. The
young growers must all belong to
clubs. so that their work may be
properly supervised. The clubs
themselves may work on a co-opera-
tive basis, and prizes have been offer
ed to them.
The plan is expected to meet with
great success. Interest is everywhere
being shown by farmers boys and
girls and also by youngsters in the
cities.-New York Times.

HEAVY CHICKENS IN DEMAND
They are Often Purchased in Prefer.
ence to Turkeys.

We had lot of chicks that were
Matched early in May and sold at
Thanksgiving for 81 50 per pair
could have sold a lot more. too. at the
same price. for my customers took
them in preference TO turkeys, that OF
late years have been high in price if
not in quality, says writer in the
Baltimore American. The difference
between what | received and what
cockerels OF that age would have
brought, was my pay for spending
about FIVE minutes each to caponize
them in July.
Chicks Matched in the natural sea
son are much easier to raise than
those that come earlier or later. and
in my experience either pay just as
well But | plan the marketing in a
somewhat unusual way | keep Plym-
outh Rocks of light pullet mating,
because then ! can tell the sex when
they are only day old Then during
the months of May and Jure sell as
baby chicks all the pullets as fast as
they are hatched When you find a
fellow who has not Matched quite as
many chicks as he has planned, it is
right easy to sell him baby chicks by
just saying that you will pick out all
pullets. That gets them nicely out of
the way.

KEEPING UP SOIL MULCH.
Important Operation After Land Has
Been Plowed.

After the land has been so well
plowcd that the rains can enter cas-
lily, the next operation OF Importance
in dry farming is the making and
maintaining OF soil mulch over the
ground to prevent the evaporation OF
water from the soil. For this pur
pose some form of harrow is most
commonly used. The oldest and best
known harrow is the ordinary smooth
ing harrow, which is composed OF iron
or steel teeth of various shapes set
in a suitable frame, For dry farm
ing purposes the implement must be
so made as to enable the farmer to
set the harrow teeth to slant back
ward and forward 1t frequently hap
pens that in the spring the gram is
too thick for the moisture in the soil
and it then becomes necessary to tear
out some of the young plants. For
this purpose the harrow teeth are
set straight, or forward. and the crop
can then be thinned effectively. AT
other times il may be observed in the
spring that the rains and winds have
led to the formation of crust over
the soil, which must be broken to lei
the plants have full freedom oil
growth and development, This is &C
complished by slanting the harrow
teeth backward and the crust may
then be broken without serious in
jury to the plants.
