econom ically conducted In proper
tion as. the farming community shall
avail itself of It's assistance in their
localities aud of the lectures given
and demonstrations offered; in proper
tion as there shall be given hearty
co. operation with these Institutes,
not only by farmers but business and
professional men in whatever line.
This is an agricultural state. AS
this basic industry prospers so and
only so, will the state prosper. The
Farmers Institutes are its greatest
incidental need and aid. Two things
are necessary for the best results: Q)
Sufficient appropriation by the State
Legislature properly to support and
promote it's labors; (2) Hearty, earnest
jealous cooperation on the part OF
the people.

duplication of equipment in the
several schools, and the duplication
of instructional staff as well. 1t would
give more room in the Normal schools
for Normal Students, and at the
University for regular college students
On the End day of the meeting,
Dean e. G. Perisho, Of Vermillion,
made an address on "Ships or Schools"
in which he sustained the proposition
that the schools of the country OF
vastly more Importance than a navy,
in one of the most brilliant pieces OF
oratory that has been heard in the
City of Mitchell. He demonstrated
that the money wasted by the United
States government on a navy Is Sutfi-
cient to give a practical education to
all the children in the land. The new
Governor elect of South Dakota, Hon.
F. M. Byrne, made an address on
Tuesday evening. Hon. c. G. Law
renee, the State Superintendent OF
Public Instruction, took as his topic,
for the annual address of the State
superintendent, the subject, The
Widening Sphere of the States Ac-
tivities in Education, and in very
thoughtful address brought before
the assem- bied teachers the many
possibilities of the present day in
leading the youth of the state to be
strong, active citizens, we'll able to
provide for themselves and to main
tain the state and the nation
DR.. w. f. .IoneS, head Of the de-
partment of education in the State
University, presented remarkable
series CT findings by himself and some
of his advanced students on 1.-The
Present Status of the Spelling Pro-
blem." Mr.. r. B. MEGA ndleSs gave a
very interesting account of the organ
ization of small library at Fulton,
South Dakota, and the very excellent
use being made of it by the people OF
that town, and the farmers for miles
around. His account was fine de-
monstrat tion Of the great value OF the
public library and of the splendid
possibilities of its use. The State
Library Association under the di-
rection and with the help of the
State Librarian, has prepared bill
to the legislature which it hopes to
have passed and which will give state
aid to public libraries.
There were many lesser lights be-
sides these greater ones, and many
interesting topics of public school
concern, discussed by the teachers,
which are not mentioned in this brief
report The different meetings were
enlivened by plentiful supply OF
very good music furnished by the
public schools of Mitchell, and by the
students and instructors of Mitchell
University.

Hope Deferred

Remember my first pair Of breeches?
You can bet. / was born number

So when Charlie and Fred had out
grown them,
What was left of 'em just fitted me!
And all the long years OF my boyhood
One treasure lOOmed large In my eyes
A never-yet- worn pair of trousers
It's the thing beyond reach that we
prize!
Then Charlie he landed ten-strike
Out West, and had money to burn:
And Fred got wonderful offer,
Twenty per more than ever l ID earn.
They said that it paid to be dressy;
1t helped them to march with the
band,
A nd when a new suit was In order,
Shipped the old one to me. out OF
hand.
Pretty soon l had Ruth and the
kiddieS--
Great Scott! How those chappies
did grow!
They we're out OF knee-pants and In
college
In no time! It's costly, you know.
Now Richard this year is senior,
and Tom is Fraternity" mad,
But they're generous!. Every home
visit,
They hand out their old clothes to
dad!
And sometimes l wonder little
If, when the last trumpet resouuds
I'll be- clad while awaiting the
summons,
In my grandsons out-worn hand-me

The Lesson of 1910 and 1911, by F.
M. Barnes, Highmore, South Dakota

The years of 1910 and 1911 we're
wears OF more or less partial or COM
plete failure of crops in the State or
South Dakota. That OF 1911 was pro-
badly the most widely extended ana
complete failure of crops in the his
tory of the State. 1t reached almost
every nook and Granny, every farm
garden and flower bed. 1t would be
difficult to estimate in dollars ana
cents the loss to the state. Certain IL
is that for that year the difference pe-
tween good or even a fair crop ana
the merely nominal crop which was
harvested would have to be written
In millions If measured in dollars
But the measure of privation, not to
say, anguish in hundreds of homes
caused by that failure cannot be
written in dollars and cents or calcu-
lated In coin.
That brings me to a consideration
of how and in what measure the serl-
Gus consequences resultant from ad-
verse seasons may be in greatest
possible measure minlmized or oovlat-
ed
1t is not considered the legitimate
province OF the ordinary layman
scientifically to treat this suoJect.
Nor will the writer assay to treat IT,,
but, [ trust l shall touch respon-
sive cord in the minds OF our farmer rs
when l suggest that the solution OF
this problem, in so far as it is capable
of solution lies in:
l. More diversified farming
g More scientific farming. That is
to say, more scientific treatment or
the soil according to recent tested
and tried out methods including (a)
Not only more scientific treatment OF
the soil but (b) Also the study or
adaptibility OF given soil to a specl-
tic crop and the reverse. (c) Sail cul-
ture with reference to the conserva-
tion of moisture and etc.
3. Rotation OF crops and colncl-
dentally the attain ment OF what may
be termed we'll balanced soil, such
as shall be best adapted to the growth
OF such crops as are indigenous to this
latitude.
4. A more insistent pursuit of the
dairy business.
5. Breeding up to better grades
and we'll chosen varieties of breeds OF
all kinds of stock, horses, cattle, hogs,
sheep, etc.
&. The growth of alfalfa and all OF
the tame grasses.
!. A more studious effort and
greater determination on the part OF
the farming community to avail it.
self Of the muni6cent agricultural re-
sources of this country.
incidentally this leads the writer
to remark tat it Is the great good
fortune of tl,r farming community 10
particular, ;.ld the populace IN gener'
al, that they have resource OF re-
liable and scientific knowledge along
all lines pertaining to farming pur'
suits OF inestimable value.

A Lucky Freight Wreck.

The Milwaukee road had very
lucky wreck In the freight yards early
last Wednesday morning. 1t seems
that the brakes on special freight
from Sioux Falls failed to work and
before the train could be stopped 1t
struck the caboose and a couple OF
other freight cars ready to pull out
and smached the engine up badly. 1t
was lucky that bhe crew on the other
train was eating lunch at the time or
some may have been killed. Both the
engineer and fireman on the other
train jumped.

HORSE FALLS AND HURTS BOY.
Ed Engen gets Badly Bruised When
Horse Slips on Wet Crossing
and Throws Him.

Last Sunday, Eddie Engen while
exercising Thomas Thorson's horse he
had the misfortune to get bad spill
when his horse slipt on wet crossing
on East 5th street. 1t seemed to
those who saw the accident that he
was surely badly hurt but after he
came too, for he was knocked sense
less, he was able to go home. He Is
now getting along nicely and suffers
little from his bad fall.

Japanese line will not enter Portland.
j. w. Ganong, vice-president OF the
Portland FIGURING Mills Company. will
leave japan for home, after having
spent several months in the Orient,
says the Portland Telegram. On his
departure from here it was suFnlised
that he might be instrumental in in
ducing the Nippon Yusen Kaisha or
some other big Japanese navigation
company to establish. a regular line
between Portland and the Far East,
but it was declared that no such line
will be established by the Japanese.
A short time ago, it is explained.
the Nippon Yusen Kaisha started a
fleet In regular service between Jap
anese ports and Calcutta and it has
no other steamers available for plac-
ing on new routes. The same cOndi-
tions it is asserted prevails in the
Orient as observation-disclosures is
scarce.
Within the next day or SO it is ex-
pected that definite advices will be at
hand relative to what Frank Water
house & Co. intend to do in the mat
ter of maintaining a line out of Port
land after August. Unless the com
pany has been guaranteed against
sustaining a loss in the operation of
its trans-Pacific freighters for the
next year, strong intimation is held
out that it will abandon the route.
No inkling has been given as to
whether the railroad company and
shippers viii give the guarantee
sought. Eut if the Warehouse steam
ers are withdrawn it is believed that
some sort of arrangement will be
made at once for shipping -four direct
from Portland to the Far East despite

tonnage.

Luka Brings Valuable Cargo.
The little auxiliary-powered schoon-
er Luka, back from a lively trip TO
the South Seas. including Tanning,
Washington and Christmas Islands,
brought a valuable cargo in thirty
tons copra, gathered at the estates
owned by Father Rougier, the Copra
King of the South Seas.
The copra will be forwarded to San
Francisco, where it brings in the
neighborhood of one hundred dollars
a ton.
The Luka is apparently none the
worse for her voyage to the little
dots in the South Pacific, which trip
consumed the, greater part of two
months.
With the arrival of the vessel at
Honolulu last evening came William
Gregg, a part owner in island estates
on Tanning and Christmas Islands.
Gregg is making a visit to the
scene Of his boyhood after an alb
sence of eight years Father Rou-
gier, who accompanied Captain Piltz
TO Tanning, remained there but is
said may return TO Honolulu
He has purchased Christmas Island
with its valuable phosphate deposits
and cocoanut groves, the price being
reported at snug figure. The wire
less rigging installed in the Luka is
said to have gone by the boards fol-
lowing a severe blow met with short
ly after the schooner sailed from Ho-
nolulu. Save the loss of few sails,
the vessel met with. no serious mis-
hap on her voyage to the yerdure-clad
islets.
