Shipments From Hand County
Farms for 1912 Valued
at $767,25O
NO. AND VALUE OF PRODUCT

The above figures Of stock ship
ments for the year 1912. are obtain
ed through the most reliable sources
from all railway points at which
Hand county stock is shipped TO
market. Only the totals are given
because the Press has no desire to
make comparisons between the var
ious towns. The purpose in gather
ing this information for the public
was only to secure actual facts in re-
gard to the county's products.
The showing is a good one. and
taken together with the large ship
ments Of grains. dairy products,
poultry and eggs. forcibly demon
strates that Hand county is working
towards the mixed farming basis
which is so necessary to the pro-
gress and development of every ag-
ricultural country The exclusive
wheat country is a precarious spec
ulation, and the exclusive cattle
country means sparce settlement.
little development and very cheap
land. The highest state of develop.
ment and greatest land values is
reached only in the diversified agri-
cultural states, toward which point
all farming communities drift soon
Ssr or later.
A we enter upontae-Saeaad-geH-
psration of settlement and develop
ment in this county it is plainly in
dicated that central Scu'h Dakota
is following along the trail so often
blazed by other and older states.
The certainty. the safety, the regul-
aritv of returns from fully diversi-
fed farming me or later appeals
to all men and women who seek the
highest state of development and
such countries in turn appeal to peo-
lple with money who are looking for
homes.
In this second generation of settle
ment the county has resources I'M
known to the first settlers. who
struggled under great disadvantages
to lay the foundation for future
prosperous homes. And as a result
we have a splendid development in
schools, churches. financial and bust
ness c%ircl,s, an educated and happy
people.
But there r still many vacant,
undeveloped acres scattered all over
the county, where opportunity
awaits the man of persistent purpose
and energy. Hand county could
sustain and prosper three times her
present population. which increased
development and population would
more than double the volume of
business now transacted within her
borders. We need mure people and
more capital. and offer in return
splendid opportunities for agricul-
turai success.

Deafness Cannot Sc Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
aud that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed on
dition of the mucou lining of the
Enstachian Tube. When this tube..is
inilamed you have q rumbling sound OF
imperfect hearing, and when it isclosed
Deafness is the result, and unless the
inflammation can be taken out and this
tube restored to its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out often are caused by Catarrah,
which is nothing but an inffamed con-
dition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case of Deafness caused by catarrii) that can
not be cured by Halls catarrh Cure. Send
for circulars, free.
