INDIANS EXHIBIT
AT STATE FAIR
Agricultural Products From In
dian Reservations

Pierre, May 19.-When in this city
a short time ago, DR.. Daugherty,
agent on the Grow Creek reservation
took up the matter of an Indian fair
this fall on that ser in line with
the movement which was started on
Cheyenne River reservation several
years ago. This movement has led
to a far more extensive plan of exhi-
bition of the progress of the Sioux
Indians along agricultural lines, ex-
tending to the erection of an Indian
building on the grounds at the state
fair at Huron, in which the agricul-
tural exhibits from the different res
ervations will be putinto competition
with one another. the judging to be
done by the same men who judge the
general agricultural exhibits. The
cost of such a building will be about
81, 500 and DR.. Daugherty has set
himself the task of raising this fund
among the Indians on the eight diff
ferent agencies of the state. about
$500 from each reservation. This
move will be long step toward help
ing the Indians in their development,
as it will put each reservation IN
competition with the others as to
agricultural success, and start keen
rivalry among the red brethren as to
which reservation can make the best
showing. not only among themselves,
but in comparison with what the
white man can do at the same fair.

Why Wheat is Better after Corn

Why Wheat is Better after Corn
from Brookings Agricultural Col
lege-In taking soil moisture sam
Piles at the South Dakota Expert
ment Station this spring some strlk-
ing differences were found in the
amount of water in the land which
grew corn in 1912 as compared with
the land which grew wheat. For
example. n plot which grew IL
bushels of wheat in 1912 contains IL
per cent of water now. while the
plot adjoining. only separated by a
road twenty feet wide which grew
AZ bushels of corn in 1912 now con-
tains "a per cent of water, just twice
as much. This is due to conserva-
ton of moisture by cultiyating and
by catching snow which lodged in
the corn stalks. This shows one rea-
son why wheat yields better after
corn.--By Manley Champlin. Assist

Sale Of Pure Bred Cattle at College
On June twentieth 1913 a sale Of
pure bred cattle will be held on the
College Farm at Brookings, S. D..
These cattle have all been raised on
the iarm and the only reason for
selling is to make room. There will
be thirteen Aberdeen Angus. five
Herefords, FIVE Shorthorns, and five
Jerseys, all sold to the highest bid
der for cash.
The click of corr planter can be
heard from fields on all sides at this
time. How many know that the
seed will terminate and grow and
that the planter is dropping the
right number of kernels in a hill?
1t does not pay to plant corn that
tests about so much in a planter
that drops about" so many kernels
in a hill. Yes, we will do better
next year, but lets put a notch on
the fence somewhere to remind US
of this next fall and winter when it
can be done the easiest and best.
Work the harrow over time the
next few weeks in the corntields.
Tons of water are leaving the fields
that a:e not protected with a dust
mulch. To be sure. there NAV not
be much moisture IN the soil, but it
may be enough to tide the crop over
till it rains, if properly conserved.
The weeder is a valuable implement
for corn and small grain fields. A
light harrow will answer the pur-
pose. Some cultivate to kill weeds,
others to make the pants grow. and
still others to conserve the moisture,
possibly the best reason. Howe yer,
cultivation properly done will do all
these. Spare not the cuItivator.
Use it freely and judiciously. BY
