SPHINX COUNTY PEOPLE MUCH IN
TEREsTED IN COUNTY
ASSOCIATION.
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 recently organized
Farm Improvement association Of
Sphinx county is making service to the
farmers. The interest taken is mani
fest in the 400 charter membership
list, which is steadily increasing. One
thousand farmer members the first
season is the slogan. Superintendent
John E. Larson reports much inter.
est In the work among the farmers
whom he has visited. He says: "Thc
only thing that will retard or hinder
sowing and planting record acres of
the various crops will be a scarcity of
farm hands" The association is do
ing all that can be done to get help,
but many farmers are without men.
The same situation prevails through
out all this section of the county.
Some of the banks in the county are
setting aside considerable money on
easy terms for the farmers who will
invest in live stock; a greater acreage
of corn will be planted this year than
any year previous, and alfalfa will be
newly sown on many farms this sea-
son.

SURGICAL Operation with Razor.

Cottonwood.-By acting as an anna
teur surgeon and giving first aid to
the injured, Michael Huffman. a resi-
dent of this place. played d part in
saving the life of Amos Slack, a young
boy, after the latter had been acct
dentally shot by his brother Joe. The
bullet lodged in the boys left shout
der, entering the muscles. i~nflicting a
very painful wound. The only rh-si-
clan who makes his home here
CHANGED to be making a call in the
country, and in this emergency Huff
man volunteered his services. With
no better surgical instrument than a
razor he set to work to find the bullet,
which he finally succeeded in cutting
out and removing, treating the wound
with carbolic acid to prevent blood
poisoning. The boy stood the crude
surgical operation without a murmer,
but his mother was w come and
tainted.

Sunshine, PIants-and Girls.

Sunlight is so important to life that
II Is little wonder that sun worshipers
prevailed in primitive days. Plant a
potato in your cellar, and II there is a
little light the potato will sprout and
try to grow. Surround 1t with the best
fertilizer, water IL, and do the best you
can for 1t except that you keep 1t in the
dark, and it cannot digest and grow.
See how slender and pale 1t is! The
process OF digestion, the great function
OF assimilation, cannot 60 on without
sunshine. Natures laws are the same
in the animal world. II is just as true
that the only girls with red cheeks
and sweet breatbs, the only girls who
become fully ripe and sweet, are those
who baptize themselves fully In glori-
u sunshine. The many pale girls who
are to be seen with a bloodless, half
baked sort of face, whose walk, whose
voice and whose whole expression is
devoid of spirit, are not half ripe.

WOMEN KNOWN BY JEWELS
served and Carefully cataIosued
by Society.

A woman frequently changes her
face and always her gown, while to
change her jewels is an event calling
for chronicle, Richard Barry writes in
the New York Times.
rs that Mrs. So-and-So in box -
l heard n woman ask another the
other night.
LET me see," replied her com.
panion, seizing the glasses. mo. Mrs.
So-and-So has sapphires surrounding
a pearl in her pendant. That has
emeralds. 1t is Mrs. Handful"
Who Is that next to herr"
with the cross Of diamonds and
the Jade stomacher?"
mo. With the oval brooch set
with opals.'"
ooh! That is Mrs. Or-to-Be's
brooch. but It doesn't look like her
daughter, only she never will let any
one wear her opals; lucky for her,
unlucky for another is her idea. What
has she done to her face?"
These women, their dependents and
their intimates hold their jewels in
the affectionate regard that another
group of women might hold their chill
dren. The entrance to the circle OF
each new piece Of Jewelry is noted
and commented on carefully. It un-
dergoes jealous observation at first.
Then, IL deserving 1t, 1t achieves a
place and is duly caralogued.
Look! There is that little Miss
Pretty. It's her first night. She's
barely eighteen, and see that string of
diamonds. l do think that is rushing
it a bit, don't you? They might wait
till the second year, at least, for a
necklace like that. However, give me
your glasses; they are better than
mine"
After a moment she releases the
glasses with a satisfied smile. AT
any rate" she observes, "they are
perfectly matched and Just the right
size"
So it goes. Jewels the center OF at
%tention; jewels which mark the dis
tinctive elements of personality. From
the tiny necklace, which Is the Joy
Of the newest d~ebutante, to the
sturdy stomacher which Is the con
ISOLATION of the oldest dowager, jewels
proclaim, define, limit, d~lTerentiate,
vitalize and deyitalize society.

elements and responsibilities OF

some respects and at some points
seem heroic, but remedies may be
heroic and yet be remedies. 1t Is our
business to make sure that they are

ment is c~hargeable against US, We

W. are called upon to render the
country a great service in more mat.
ters than one. Our responsibility

facts as they are, and not worked out
as II we were beginners. We are to

make laws which square with those
facts. 1t is best, indeed 1t Is neces-
sary, to begin with the tariff. / will
urge nothing upon you now at the
opening of your session which can OBJ
scure that first object or divert our
energies from that clearly defined
duty. At a later time | may take the
liberty Of calling your attention to re-
forms which should press close upon
the heels OF the tariff changes, II not
accompany them, OF which the chief
is the reform Of our banking and cur
rency laws; but Just now / refrain.
Fol the present, ! put these matters
on one side and think only of this one

BREAKING OUT ON LEG

Hilltop, Kan.-"About two years <
I began to notice a breaking out on my
leg. AT first 1t was very small but
soon 1t began to spread until it formed
large blotches. The itching was ter
rible and almost constant. Many
nights I could not sleep at all. After
scratching 1t to relieve the itching It
would burn SO dreadfully that I
thought / could not stand 1t. For near
ly a year / tried all kinds Of calves
and ointment, but found no relief.
Some salyes seemed to make 1t worse
until there were ugly sores, which
would break open and run.
"One day I saw an advertisement of
Cuticura Remedies. / got a sample of
the Cuticura Soap and Cuticura ONT
ment and began by washing the sores
with the Cuticura Soap, then applying
the Cuticura Ointment twice a day.
] noticed a change and got more Cuti-
cura Soap and Ointment and in a few
weeks / was cured. 1t has healed so
nicely that no scar remains" (Signed)

Sioux Falls.-Through refusal of

Rapid City Flremen lose Trophies,

Rapid City.-The fire which COM
pletely destroyed the Holcomb block
and the hardware stock in the store
of Francis N. Housh, inflicted a loss
to the building of $4,000 and the
stock Of $4,000; insurance covering
same, $4,000. The firemen, who
fought the flames from 2 to z o'clock
in the morning, lost all of their athlet-
ic trophies and the uniforms. OF
these there were cups and banners
won over a series of years in athletic
contests through the state. The state
banner, which had been twice won by
the Rapid City firemen and was to be
theirs if they were successful at this
years tournament, was also destroyed.
All that Boush saved was a pair of
puppies, three days old, which Night
Policeman Leonard rescued when he
heard them crying for their mother,
who had fallen through the burning
floor and persisted.

Exposes River eottom,

Pierre.-The Missouri river is again
in sight. though for two days the bot
tom was visible in places, due to the
fall in water from the gorge above
Pierre. Pockets filled with water
were exposed to view, and many large
fish, n measuring more than four
feet in length, were literally stranded
upon the shadows left by the sudden
falling of the river Sunday night. Such
an unusual procedure has never been
noted in the history of the Missouri
at this point. The huge Ice figures be-
tween Pierre and Fort Pierre. which
were left standing after the water re-
coded. looked very much like bad
lands formations, except hat they
were covered with a black sediment
instead of the more lively colors seer
in the Bad Lands.

Russell, when he was brought here

near Reliance, west of the Missouri

barn door. The wind blew it from its
hinges, and falling on him rendered
him unconscious. He was unable to
free himself and when found both feet
were frozen. Gangrene set in after
he failed to respond to treatment and
he was brought here to have them re-
moved to save his life. The surgeons

Mitchell.-At the city election to be
held April 15 a judge will be elected
for the municipal court, established
by vote at the election of April 1.
William r. Herbert, former states at.
torney, is the only candidate SO far
before the people. With the establish
ment of the court. the office Of police
justice, held by Fred c. Drake, will be
abolished. It is probable that the new
court will be installed in the room in
the city hall now occupied by the chief
Of police. who will be moved to the
basement. There was a bitter fight
over tie question of establishing the
court, but only about half the normal
vote was polled.

CANADA WINS AGAIN
THE COLORADO SILVER TROPHY
FOR OATS WON A SECOND
TIME BY CANADA.

The most recent achievement OF
Canada's West is winning for the sec.
n time the magnificent $1,000 silver
trophy awarded by the State Of Colo.
RADIO for the best peck Of oats. At
Columbus, Ohio, In 1911, ]. C. Hill G.
Sons OF Lloydminster, Saskatchewan,
placed a peck of oats grown on their
farm in competition, with oats from
every part of the world. The judges
had no difficulty in deciding, and the
award was given to the Saskatchewan
grown oats. In 1912, the Corn Expo
sition had no exhibition, and our Ca
madam friends, although ready for a
second contest had no opportunity.
In 1913, the exhibition of the Society
was held at Columbus, S. c., and it is
said OF 1t that it was one Of the best
yet held. At this exhibition, which
comprised corn and all the smaller
grains, Hill & Sons of Lloydminster
had on exhibition for the contest an
other peck Of oats grown on their
Saskatchewan farm, In 1912. There
was no trouble for the judges, no time
necessarily lost In reaching a decision,
Hill C Sons won, and for the second
time their name will appear on the
crest Of the cup. The third space will
doubtless be occupied by their name,
and then this splendid trophy will be
theirs.
During the past few years Western
Canada grains-wheat, oats, barley and
fax-have been In competition with
grains from all other countries, and in
every case their superiority has been
shown. 1t is not only in oats, but it
is in wheat, in barley and in fax, that
Canada more than holds it's own, when
placed side by side with grains from
other parts.
Mixed farming is taking a strong
hold not only in those parts of Mani
toba, Saskatchewan and Alberta,
which up to the present have been de-
voted solely to grain growing, but also
in the districts contiguous, where the
conditions Of climate, shelter, water,
grass and hay make farming of this
hllu, easy W pIOoSCuIc anu ldIS &c III
profits. 1t was in the Province of
Manitoba that the steer was raised
that carried off the Championship Of
The steer class, at Chicago last De-
cember. This beast had been fattened
on the grass and hay Of the Province
and the only finishing grain it had was
barley; not an ounce of corn.
Western Canada presents innumer-
able opportunities for the big farmer
who wants to cultivate his thousands
OF acres, the medium man satisfied
with a few hundred acres, the man
who is content to farm his free home
stead of one hundred and sixty acres;
it has opportunities for the investor,
the capitalist, the business man, the
manufacturer and the laborer.
Agents of the Canadian Government
located at different points in the Unit
ed States will be pleased on applica-
ton, to give any desired information,

MAKES TAX RULING.
Special Assessment Made by City of
Mitchell Upheld.

Mitchell Upheld.
Mitchell.-In circuit court Judge
Frank B. Smith rendered a decision
in a case which will settle, as far as
the circuit courts are concerned the
right to levy a special assessment and
charge the same up to the property,
and it Is a question which has arisen
in many cities and towns of the state
over the same proposition. The city
made several special assessments
against the property of William Nc.
Grath for the building of a cement
sidewalk, installing water and sever
mains, which he declined to pay on
the ground that his home as a home
stead was exempt from the levying of
special assessments. He brought suit
against the city to have the special
assessment set aside. The court rem.
dered a decision holding that the spe.
cial assessments as levied by a city
for such improvements are valid.

Though the queen is to accompany

Found Dead in a Pool.

Aberdeen.-A man found dead near
the Milwaukee tracks at Bath was
identified as Charles Farnum, aged
40, who had been working on the Mil
waukee steel gang at Summit, left
Summit and got off at Webster. II is
supposed he became intoxicated and
while walking to Aberdeen fell into
the pool of water in which he was
found and died of exposure. There
were no marks OF violence upon his
person.
