Wants Artesian Wells.

Chamberlain.-The residents of
Lone Tree township, Trip county,
which was formed from the ceded
portion of the Rosebud Indian reser-
walton, have decided to embark in
the artesian we'll business on quite
an extensive scale. They plan on
drilling four or five artesian wells in
different parts of the township. The
well will be drilled by the township
at a cost of about $1,000 each, and
will furnish an abundance Of water
for thousands of head of stock and
will in addition create running streams
through the township, the surplus flow
from the wells being ample for this.
The water from the wells also will
be used for irrigation purposes when
necessary. 1t is expected the sink
ing of the wells will make the town

Good Roads Measure.
Pierre.-Just before the recess, the
first moves toward general road legis-
lation through the state organization
were made, in the way of a general
bill, which has been framed after the
provisions of the Iowa road law so
far as using automobiles as a means
Of securing road revenue can be car
ried into effect under the constitution
al limitations of this state. Instead
OF using a basis of horsepower as a
tax on such vehicles in lieu of all
other taxes, it is proposed to fix an
annual license fee Of Sc on all automo-
bilcs owned in the state, which on the
nlrnnhnp Witch 49, rAnsntA.Al xv;lt
mean close to S100,0 900 annually, and
If the purchase of autos in the state
continues for another year at the
same rate as for the past year, will
carry the fund to even a larger sum.
1t is proposed to divide this fund so
that a portion will go back to the
counties in which IL is paid, and the
rest to be used as a general state fund.
AS a supplement to this bill, Sena.
tor Brooks introduced a bill appropri-
ating $500 annually by the state to
pay its share Of expenses of road
construction along and across state
lands. AS state property cannot be
taxed for road or any other purposes,
when road construction is carried on
in vicinities in which the state is a
land owner, the adjoining property
not only need bear its own share of
the expense of such construction work,
but also the share which should apply
to the state in case such land were in
the hands of private owners. This
appropriation is intended in part at
least to remedy this condition, and al
low the state to pay it's share OF such
construction, or a part of it.

THEY WASTE FERTILIZERS.
State College Professor Says Ameri-
can Farmers Waste Millions.

Observation-Disclosures farmers vast
ed as much available fertilizer in 1912
as the total value of the entire wheat
cfop-upwards of seven hundred mil
lion dollars. In making the foregoing
statement, Prof. j. G. Hutton of the
state college referred to the power
of manure to enrich and restore the
crop producing qualities of the soil.
Explaining further, Prof. Hutton
says: THE amount of ~preyentable
waste on the American farm is as
founding. 1t has been carefully esti-
mated that the value of the farm ma
nure which is allowed TO go to waste
is seven hundred million dollars an
nually. The wheat crop for 1912 has
been estimated at 730, 000, 900 bushels.
1t is seer from these figures that the
value of the manure going to waste
on the farms of the United States is
worth as much as the total wheat crop
OF the country. OF course, it is not
easy work to haul out the manure, but
it is a paying proposition nevertheless.
Fertilizer companies would have us
believe that all of the elements of
plant food which must be applied to
the soil should be bought in the form
Of commercial fertilizers. This is a
good proposition for the fertilizer man.
ufactrrer, but a mighty poor one for
the farmer.
some farmers have said, Yes, we
have a lot of n lying around
here, but the land will not stand it.
Now, we may just as well get it clear
ly in our minds that unless the ma
nure can be returned to the land, or
green manure crops plowed under, 1t
will only be a short time unit we
must go out OF the farming business.
Ten tons of manure to the acre
does not make a very thick layer.
but when this is applied evenly be-
fore blowing and thoroughly disked in
to the soil, there is no doubt that it
will repay many times the cost Of put-
ting it on the land. On M farm in
South Dakota, it was found that ten
loads of manur to the acre increased
the wheat yield ten bushels to the
acre. 1t is also known that an appli-
cation of manure makes itself felt
moi only the first year after it's appli-
cation, but for many years thereafter
its effects may be noticed in the in
creased yields"
