Much new rock has been put on the
macadam and the road is now In good

More crushed rock will also be put
on the road on this stretch, making 1t
from eight inches to foot in depth.

be graded up in good shape and the

While the supervisors of Lee county

legislature, 1t is admitted that the law
will cause great deal OF perma

The highway commission recently
met with the Lee county board and
an understanding was reached upon
many points. The disputes over the
location Of some of the roads In the
northern part OF the country were
also referred to the commission to be
decided after consideration.

FACTS FROM THE DAIRY
TRAIN

Forty-six per cent more butter
IS made from South Dakota
cream than two years ago.
Select your dairy herd from
the best producers.
The grade cow with the dairy
special produced ITO pounds Of
butter per year. Bred to q
blooded sire, she produced an
offspring that produced 32O
pounds.
Ten acres Of pasture for yfif-
teen cows is better than one
hundred acres if you have silage,
and lots Of it.
The most economical way to
convert fodder into money is to
dse the COW as the medium.
Butter is the most valuable anc
concentrated human food known
BY feeding the field crops to
dairy cows about $35 on the feec
for one cow for one year can be
saved in labor in connection with
marketing and transporting of
field crops.
In $1,000 worth of wheat re-
moved from farm $3.50 worth
Of plant food is removed and
lost to the farm. In $1,000 worth
of butter sold, only 81. worth Of
plant food is removed from the
farm.
The dairy cow is the only
means by which you may produce
human food in quantities through
out the year.
The herd bull is half Of the
herd. The production Of milk II
transmitted through the sire to
the offspring.
The silo must be air tight and
durable and should be cheap. The
pit silO fills the bill.
Look out for dodder in alfalfa.
The seeds are smaller than al
falfa seeds and have dull sur
faces, and are different shaped
than alfalfa. -
Plant South Dakota grown
alfalfa seed. Send for bulletin

DAIRY TRAIN A SUCCESS

The dairy -silo- alfalfa train,
which was run early this month
by the State College and the
State Dairymen S Association was
great success. Thirty-eight
towns were visited along the
Chicago and Northwestern Rail
way, covering a mileage Of 971
miles. Approximately ten
thousand people visited the train
and listened to the lectures. One
hundred fifty lectures and dem
onstrations We're given on dairy
ing, alfalfa, sios and silage. and
the dairy COW. The milking ma
chime, College Belle Wayne, and
other displays on the exhibit
car proved Of great interest at
all times.
The success Of the first agri-
cultural train may mean many
such trains in the future. The
Northwestern officials ran the
train on schedule time and did
everything possible to make the
work Of the educators convenient
and pleasant. That the train hax
done a great amount OF good
goes without saying.

MASS MEETINGS

Organization Meetings for

Last week S issue of the Fort

for party mass meetings. to be
held at the county seat on De

der the Richards primary law,

the democratic party is signed
by +. B. Davis, William Hayes, r
j, McGraw, r. S. Rowe, w. II.
Frost, Frank OReilly, c. W,

call for the meeting Of the af-
filiants of the minority faction

is signed by Alvin WaggOner, Z

he published this week
The calls set forth the purpos.
IS of the meetings To be he selcr
tiun Of the FIRST representative rs
Tor the count, and state pro
| poSHl committees.
TINS paper recognizes the ne
rtssl,N for the meetings. for IN
that manner only can we secure
representation in the state meet
in@S. But we hope that those IN
control 1T these mass meetings
will see to it that the county is
not hnrdencd with the cost Of
three or four county proposal
committee meetings. 1t would be
an unnecessary expense. mas
much as practically all those now
known to be candidates for
county and Legislative offices
seem willing to place their names
in the independent columns of
the two parties. The county
has seventyeigh1 voting precin-
cts and with at least three men
from each precinct attending the
two necessary meetings of each
committee. and drawing mileage
from the county, the expense
would be enormous The mileage
will average fifty miles for each
They are entitled to Zoe for
each mile travelled in going to
and from the county seat and
bids aggregating nearly 5000
would have to be allowed by the
county comm iSsiOnelS.
The Review suggests that each
mass meeting, after selecting
their state representatives,
should consider resolution to
the effect that it was the sense
of the meetings that it was nn-
necessary to name the members
OF the county proposal com
mittees, and that each candidate
for county and legislative Of
fices should file petitions fol
independent nominations lI
taking such action they will
show that they have truly at
heart the interests of the tax
