tor Daley Of Moody county and
known as the Daley bill fixes the
standard weights and measures for

A STRONG MIND GOVERNS US

Woodrow Wilson is becoming a
popular president. Probably no man
who has ever been called to this re-
sponsible office commanded more uni.
versal respect. The American people
admire and respect man of culture
and refinement and the president is
such. They like man intellectual
and scholarly, and the president is a
giant intellectually and eminent as a
scholar. They admire the author
and the skillfull public speaker, and
Woodrow Wilson has these qualitica-
tions in high degree. They like a
man honest, courageous, conscient.
ious and upright and they find such a
man in our chief executive. Great
as a politician and greater as a states
man, Woodrow Wilson personifies
the nations ideal type of public ser
want and when man of this type ap-
pears, the question as to what party
he belongs becomes a little moment.

whore they went over the soldiers
home, the tubercular hospital, the
Spear6sh normal and the school of

SON STRUCK RICH OIL FLOW

Huron Huronite: Here's short one.
In the early eighties there lived at the
little cow village Of Harold, in Hughes

WORK OF THE COMMISSION

has levied tax of one mill on the dol

the tax was four mills on the dollar.
The tax, therefore. remains the same
as it was year age. Is this what the
commission is paid SIS 900 year to do?
To travel over roundabout course and
arrive finally at the place from which it
started? The old board of equalization

licenses and carried the list with him

out, by his book he would know who
was without the power authority.

DAIRYING WOULD SAVE

More evidence is accumulating to
show that as long as South Dakota
depends upon single crop and wheat
at that, it is not going to attain it's
largest measure of prosperity.
This time the word comes from
Lars Fredericksen, this greatest cat
tie expert in Denmark, who is in
the United 5tatas to study agricul-
ture. He is in North Dakota and
told the people there that their state
as we'll as South Dakota and all of
the northwestern states are facing
the same problem which Denmark
faced and solved thirty years ago.
Denmark depended upon one crop un-
til the fertility was gone from, the
soil and the people were forced to
seek new ways of earning living on
the farms. The dairy COW solved the
problem and today the little kingdom
of Denmark supplies the United
Kingdom with butter and Germany
to a large extent with beef. Condi-
tions are far better for dairying in
the northwestern states than In Dem
mark, declared Mr.. Frederiksen. The
home markets. the fact that the fin
est dairy cattle in the United States
and the great abundance of fertile
coil, all make conditions best here,
he said.

state fair this year are unusually at

There Is produced every year In this
country sufficient forage to feed liber-
ally all the live stock OF the land, and
leave . good balance besides. The
shortage OF supplies each year Is due
to the spelling and wasting of forage
slready grown, and the means OF pre-
serving this forage will solve the
stock problem Of the country. The
principal waste Is now going on with
the corn plant. 1t is most noticeable
ir the corn belt states where perhaps
so per cent. of the stalk and leaves Of
this most valuable forage is wasted
annually. As economic stock produc-
tion Is determined by the proper use
OF forage. the silo furnishes q means
whereby all farm forage can be pre-
served and placed in the best possible
condition for feeding. The silo is too
well known to require a description OF
this method. but its use Is certainly
sadly wanting. 1t can be safely said.
on any farm where 10 head or moro
OF cattle are kept, silo is proper
