THE BALANCE OF A

Every Ameri, an is glad when the
balance of trade is in favor of the
United States, when we export more
than we import, when We sell more
than we buy, when as a nation we
earn more than We spend, take in
more than we pay out-for that is
the basis of national prosperity.
But did you ever stop to think that
that is the basis of prosperity of a
community as well?-that it is just as
important to us that this community
maintain its balance Of trade?
If We sent all the money we earn
on our farms and in our factories out
of this community, how long would
this community last?
To do so entirely would be fatal: to
do so in part is foolish.
The dollar spent here remains here,
the medium of exchange in %numberless
local transactions. 1t maintains the
balance of trade in our favor.
You perhaps think that the dollar
that you yourself send away for goods,
OF which quality you have no euaran.
tee, doesn't matter much.
Did you ever stop to think that a
lot of similar dollars of a lot of sim
liar people sem out of this town des-
troys the balance of trade and may
eventually destroy the town itself?

EX-GOV. LEE is WINNER

The supreme court, in an opinion by
Justice Whiting, affirmed the lower
court of Clay county, in the case OF
William E. Niles VS.. Andrew f. Lee,
in which Ex-Governor Lee secured a
verdict in a suit brought against him
by Niles over a railroad deal in Mich
igan. The situation as shown in the
record indicates that Niles, a Chicago
promoter, thought he had picked an
easy mark in the former governor Of
South Dakota, and in the end found
the Dakotan not so easy. 1t appears
that he induced Lee to go into a rail
road deal with him in Michigan, and
continued to draw expense money
from Lee to pay bills and work the
promotion end of the deal, but when
Lee visited the road in question he
discovered that the money he was ad-
vancing was not being used for the
purposes which Niles claimed it was
being used for, and he secured from
Niles a full transfer of the property,
following which Niles attempted to
begin suit against Lee in Chicago,
which was evaded by a hurry up"
trip by Lee outside the jurisdiction of
Illinois courts, and the suit was
brought in this state. with the result
that Lee is the winner.

STICK TO STANDARD VARIETIES

In selecting seed for planting it is
usually best to stick to standard or
thoroughly tested varieties" says
Manley Champlin, Assistant Agron-
omist at the State College. Expert
menting on a large acreage is too
risky. Surprising one were to buy a
variety of oats not adapted to his eli.
mate conditions and plant forty acres
OF it. He would thus very certainly
lose four hundred dollars or more"
The Experiment Station finds that
in nearly every case the varieties that
give best results are those that come
from regions where climate conditions
are similar. Records have been es-
tablished for a long list of varieties
and the records of the best ones have
been published. The ones that have
the best records are the ones to use.
Bulletins 10, 113, 124, 1873, 135, give
these records and can be had for the
asking.
If seed of these varieties is not OBJ
tanned, and other seed must be bought,
try to get seed grown as near home
as possible. Other things equal, the
chances are with the home grown seed.
The point is, don't buy seed just be.
cause it has a fancy name. Look up
to bring the best varieties into nor
common use, but it is a big job and
the means for accomplishing it are
inadequate, but that is not saying
that it can't be done.

WHAT CAN BE DONE IN SOUTH
DAKOTA

H A. Lillibridge arrived in u town
last Thursday and spent a few days
among us visiting his many old riends
and attending to business matters.
For the benefit of the new residents
who have moved among us during the
past few years we wish to give a little
history of Mr.. Lillibridge's success as
a farmer in this locality. He came
here fourteen years ago and purchas-
ed the Mons Stensland farm south of
town and at once began to stock up
with all the live stock the farm would
feed. BY plenty of hustle and atten-
ton to business he soon had a large
herd of hogs and cattle to turn on
every spring and fall and a short time
later and at different times he was
offered more land which he snapped
up, and still more young stock was
purchased and fed or the crops raised.
When he began to close out his hold
ings here two years ago he owned
over seven hundred acres Of land we'll
improved and we'll cultivated. He then
went to Canada where he purchased
twelve hundred acres of new land, and
also held half a section here which he
proposed to keep as a nest egg, in case
his Canada investment did not pan out
profitably, but during the past winter
he sold the half section to T. p. Scott
of Remsen, Iowa, and this week he
decided the place to Mr.. Scott, receiv-
ing $31,0 O in cash. He and the good
wife are now living at Cour d. Alene,
Idaho, just inside the city limits where
they have a one acre fruit farm and
are taking life easy. From here Mr..
Lillibridge went to Canada to help
the Stensland boys, who have charge
of the big farm, get ready for the
spring work. Mr.. Lillibridge's sue
cess shows that big money can be
made at farming in this locality, but if
takes lots of hustle and strict attention
to business. Now that the ranges
have been practically wiped out, the
market must depend upon the small
farmers for the meat supply and if
every farmer would stock his farm
with all the animals he can feed
properly he will find dollars rolling
into his pockets much more rapidly
and more certainly than with grain
growing only, which is becoming OBJ
solete, especially where land is getting
above the $50 per acre mark,-Toronto
