TO NATURE FOR REAL REST
Excellent Advice couched in Language
That Savors of the Fancy of the
True Poet.

Tired, are you? Want a recipe for
real rest? Well, here's one, recon-
mended by Nicholas Vachel Lindsay
he's a poet, but don't hold that
against HMM Farm and Fireside:
you to whom the universe has be-
come a blast furnace, a coke oven, a
cinder-strewn freight yard, to whom
the history of all ages is a tragedy
with the climax now to whom our
democracy and our flag n but play
things of the hypocrite, turn to the
soil, turn to the earth, your mother,
and she will comfort you. Rest, be it
ever SO little, from your black brood
ings. Think with the farmer once
more, as your fathers did. Revere
with the farmer our centuries-old rural
civilization, however little it meets the
city's trouble. Revere the rural Gus
toms that have their roots in the ina
memorial benefits of nature.
There is perpetual balm in Gilead,
and many city workmen shall turn to
it and be healed. This by faith, and a
study OF the signs, we proclaim!"-

CLUBS ARE BUSY
ORGANIZATION IN NUMBER OF
SOUTH DAKOTA TOWNS VERY
ACTIVE THIS YEAR.
HAPP ENINGS OVER THESTATE
What is Going on Here and There
That is of Interest to the Read.
ers Throughout South Da-
kota and Vicinity.

Redfield.-The commercial clubs of
the smaller towns of South Dakota
are keeping well up, in matters of pub
lie enterprise, with those of the larger
towns this year. Scarcely a town in
the state but has a commercial organ
ization among the business and pro-
fessional men, and most of the organ
izations are active and enterprising
and accomplish a great deal toward
the upbuilding of their town and the
surrounding country.
AT Parker, at a recent meeting Of
the commercial club, the subject of
oiling the business streets of the city
during the summer was taken up, and
the general opinion of the members
favored the plan, provided it could be
done by al expert. Mayor Kyes
stated the city council Vas ready
to place the streets in condition for
oiling, if the citizens wanted it done.
A committee was appointed with in
structions to investigate the matter
and report at the next meeting of the
club. The club also discussed a prop
osition to remove the hitching posts
from the main street, and favored a
system of alarms at the railroad ross
ings for the prevention of accidents.
A plan was also decided upon where
all solicitors for doubtful advertising
schemes will be referred to a COM
mercial club committee, business men
refusing to p~atronize such schemes I'M
til they are officially endorsed by the
club.
At Arlington, the new commercial
club rooms are ready for occupancy.
They have been fitted up nicely with
new furniture.
The Canton Commercial club will
hold a "get acquainted" meeting and
banquet at the Hotel Rudolph.
The Mobridge Commercial club is

Held for lncendiarism,

Mitchell.-Incensed at Banker n. c..
Snodgrass because he refused to loan
them money on poor security, Jesse
Ridges and John Rush are accused of
seeking revenge by setting fire to his
house on his claim near Interior, S. d.
AS the firebugs left the house after
spreading kerosene over the interior
they were seen by a neighbor. Calling
to his assistance other neighbors, they
put out the flames before much dam
age vas done. Two b~loodhounds were
SEN out from this city and were given
the scent at the house, and it led to
the home of the accused men. From
that point the hounds followed the
scent toward Interior, and half way to
town they met the two men coming
out. The dogs leaped upon them and
they were barely saved from being in
jured. The men were taken back to
town, given a preliminary examina-
ton and bound over to the circuit
court in the sum of $1,000 each.

NHNAJO VILLAGE

The size CT the flocks owned by the
individual families vary considerably
in some cases. The number possessed
by the smallest holders is rarely less
than $50 head. While the more wealthy
have as many as 1000 or more. Some
of the w~ealthiest hold at their dis
posal from 5000 to 10000 head, but
instances of this kind are few and are
not known to exist in but ten or
twelve cases. OF seyenty-seven herds
counted ear Keams canyon, Arizona,
the average sized flock was found to
be very nearly 700 head, which is
probably a fair estimate for other &C.
tons of the reservation. If there is
any difference elsewhere it will exceed
these figures rather than fall below
them. A herd of this size viii easily
support an average Navajo family of
two adults and three children. The
wool sold direct to the traders as it is
taken from the sheep should bring
$500. If made into blankets it will
exceed this amount by two or three
times. Adding to this the returns
from the sale Of a few lambs or Of
the matured animals, it is obvious that
the ordinary Navajo family can live
easily off the income from their flocks,
considering hat they are at no cash
outlay, except for their clothing, -four,
coffee and a few other domestic ne-
cessities exclusive of meat, which is
supplied from the herd. While no
definite figures are o~btainable, it
seems very probable that the Navajos
have on an average 100 sheep per
capita for every man, woman and
child on the reservation, which is
amply sufficient to solve che bread
and-butter problem for them for gen.
erations to come, granting, Of course,
that they do not lose their herds from
epidemics or from unfavorable range
conditions.

No Baseball LEAGUE.

Mitchell.-There will be no base
ball league in South Dakota this year.
The project went to pieces when Alb
erdeen declined to enter into relations
with Mitchell, Sioux Falls and Water
town. Aberdeen had given little or no
encouragement to the promoters of
the league, and failed to send a repre-
sentative to the meetings that have
been held to promote the league. Alb
erdeen was finally asked whether it
would come into the league, and no
definite reply being received the
league idea was dropped. Sioux Falls
