Monday afternoon John Hart was
arraigned before Judge McNulty in
circuit court in Sisseton on charge of
embezzlement and entered plea of
guilty upon advice of his attorney,
Howard Babcock, and was sentenced
to term of eight months in the peni-
tertiary at Sioux Falls. This defend
ant was arrested Friday afternoon at

a horse doctor by occupation, and had
been working in the vicinity of Will
mot for several months.

The Schools Increase

The summary of school statistics in
the report of the state superintendent
of instruction shows the great advances
made in the past ten years, both as to
rural schools, and city independent dis
tricts. The rural schools have grown
in number from 1858 to 4,725; with the
teaching force going up from 4,376 to
5,167, and the enrolment increasing
from 50, TBS to 1874, 389. Average salaries

81. 899, 1925, but the annual school levy
decreased from 81 mills to 9.07 mills,
Eighth grade graduates have increased

For the cities and independent dis
tricts the showing is an increase of
from 100 to ITO in schools, with an

Caspian Sea IL . My,tery.

The Caspian sea Is one Of the great
mysteries Of the world. Three great
rivers that pour into 1t from the north
are sufficient to raise its surface five

one Of the great streams OF the earth.
But this vast tideless sea does not

that at prehistoric perioS 1t entirely

physicians as the Sarmatian ocean A.
though It's surface Is now about ninety
feet below that Of the Mediterranean.
there was q time at which Its height
equaled the Black sea.
At that time the mighty Oxus-larger
than the Ohio river-which now flows
into the Aral sea. emptied into the
Caspian. The old bed Of that stream
Is visible to this day.
The Aral Is more than 200 feet high

that incline were the Oxus to return to
Its ancient bed. The Aral sea would

Stockmen Cannot Agree

The Moreau country in Perkins
county is all torn up over a dispute
between cattlemen and sheepmen. 1t
is claimed that Fred Driscoll and Oliver
Rose, two prominent sheepmen. were
driving LOO along a trail which is
regularly used by travellers, but which
passes across school section leased by
c. l.. Yates, cattleman. Yates
objected to the sheep crossing the land
and when they appeared, he with a
force of men, is alleged to have
empounded the LOO sheep for trespass.
Driscoll and Rose have brought suit
for $1,000 damages against Yates and
others implicated in the affair, and
gave bonds to cover any damage the
sheep did.

Howard Babcock Burned

Monday morning the gasoline in the
stove at the home of Howard Babcock,
of Sisseton, was not working right and
enough soon accumulated so that it
blazed as high as the tank. Mr.. Bah
cock feared that an explosion would
soon be the result, so he grabbed up a
rug, and with its assistance as pro
tector to his hands, the tank was
carried out of the house, his left hand
was badly burned. In the meantime
the woodwork in the kitchen had taken
fire. This was soon extinguished. Mr..
Babcock feels that he was lucky in not
being more seriously burned; had the
tank exploded his life would surely have
been in danger,

PESTS ON THE SWEET POTATO
kesenicai Poisons Found Best N Deal
ina With Beetles and Cutworms.

The sweet potato crop Is subject TO
more or less serious injury from insect
pests. All Of the really injurious spe
cies attack the plants In the early
stages of their growth in the field. This
- usually some time after the middle
Of May. The danger period lasts until
the plants have taken hold and have
begun to grow vigorously. In recent
years the tendency has been to risk
frosts In early fall and plant late.
One Of the most troublesome insects
is the sweet potato iea beetle. II Is
about one-sixteenth OF an inch long and
has brassy brown coat.
These beetles chew out narrow
grooves or channels ON either the upper
or under side of the leaves. These
channels are ut first close to and paral-
lei with some Of the principal veins. II
the weather happens to be dry and hot
the entire plant will probably die.
To destroy this insect an application
Of arsenical poison may be used. The
simplest plan is TO dip the plants be-
fore setting in mixture Of one pound
IA per cent arsenate Of lead to ten gal
Ions Of water. II II per cent arsenate
Of lead Is used. one pound should be
added TO six gallons Of water. This
will not injure the plants In any way
Spraying will not answer the same pur
pose as dipping. because 1t is impossi
BILE to coat the leaves on the under
side.
Bran is very attractive to cutwormS
and they may be killed in the field by
the use Of poisoned bran They take
this food in preference TO the green
plants. To poison the bran mix one
pound of white arSenate and paris
green with fifty pounds of bran and
five pounds powdered sugar. Add wa
ter enough to moisten thoroughly. 4
spoonful Of this to a hill of plants will
attract every cutworm in the field In
two or three nights.-American Agri

GET DOWN TO FERTILITY.
No Reason For pisuse Of Plant Fssd-
Piow Your Land Deeply


In a recent issue of Farm and Ffre-
side q contributor writes a very inter
esting article on soil fertility In which
he shows the different qualities that
soil must have and how, when the soil
becomes depleted, some sort Of replen-
,shment Of the lost qualities must be
provided. Following Is an extract from
the article:
zone Of the ways we have Of increas-
Ing our crop yield Is to- plow deeper.
That Is like running the hand a little
deeper into the pocket, It Is true, and
Il does not take the place OF adding to
our soil nitrogen, potash and phos-
phorfc acid. but It does enable ns to
make available soil fertility that IS
really ours and to the benefits Of which
We are fairly entitled.
But will this deeper soil really give
us better cropsf That homely creature
the woodchuck may answer that ques-
ton for us. wherever he has his home.
See what he does by his system OF
deeper digging. The rankest grass on
the whole farm is right around the
woodchuck hole. What has he done?
He has brought up some Of the fertil-
ity that has all these years been locked
up waiting for US to make it available.
The rains have moistened this soil. the
sunshine has warmed it. and splendid
grass is the result.
$50 this is a plea for deeper cultiva-
ton. I know It will take little harder
work on the part Of our horses to bring
hold the pillow as we used to our arms
would surely ache before night, but
the beautiful riding plows of today,
which hold themselves. have lessened
the work of turning over the soil. We
may as we'll have the extra depth Of
soil to grow better crops as to let 1t lie
there idle in the dark. On many farms
there are layers of what have been
called hard pan a little way below
the surface. These form tables which
hold the moisture and prevent 1t from
finding its way deeper into the earth.
They also in some degree form a bar
rier to the progress Of plant roots
downward. Other lands do not present
this barrier. but wherever the soil Is
! thus packed down 1t needs breaking up.
Drainage will do very much to help
about this, and little raising Of the
clevis. so that the plowshare will dive
deeper. will certainly enable our crops
to get hold Of and make available the
locked up reserve fertility"

Representative-elect A. C. Granger,
OF Stanley county, was arrested and
taken before Justice Mcclure Friday
on charge of interfering at an cleo
ton. His hearing was postponed until
March Is. 1t is claimed that on cleo
ton night, with all but one election
Judge absent at supper following the
closing of the polls, the one Judge
opened the ballot box, and Granger,
who was in the room, took a part in
the sorting of the ballots for counting,
which is the basis of the complaint.

Open Weather

South Dakota weather this year is
worthy of comment. Probably never
before in the history of white occupa-
ton has a fall been so consistently
"open" as has the one we are still
enjoying. Very little snow has come
as yet and that hardly remained over
night. There has been but one bad
day and that was not cold. The Mis-
souri, river is still wide oden for prac-
tically its whole length in the state.
This, with snow and cold weather in
Georgia, Texas, the east, the west,
and close to US on the north, certainly
points to a particular favor in our case.
