GOLD MINES.

According to an announcement
in The U s Geological Survey
Bulletin of this week another fake
has been exploded. The erich
gold ores reported IN Oklahoma
have, according to geological sur
vey, about same value as sea wa

The Bulletin further says
"rhe rocks in the region consist
of ebert, sale, and sandstone, car.
ryipg here and there small
amounts of pyrite, which is
known to the miner as FOOLS gold.
None of the supposed rich ore,
which ~ generally \ brown or
gray sandstone, when crushed
and panned yielded any free gold.

travelling, had the influence of accen-
tua,ing his love of home. Therefore,
when he retired from the service OF
his old employers he stored his grip in
the garrett and settled down to the en-
ioyment of the fruits of his earlier
endeavors. Being of vigorous mind
and BODY he could not content himself
without sharing some Of the trou-

interested in local undertakings.
While he has been consistent in his
political views, he has never been
partisan follower of any faction.

THE HEALTH

Over 1000 Children Attended

Monday Afternoon.

The Health Exhibit Tram un
der the auspices Of the Louisiana

here on iast Saturday night and
spent Sunday and Monday with

the crowds visiting the ears num
bered several thousands The

the principal streets to he health
tram from al, of the public

the little folks.
The afternoon moving picture
exhibition at the Elks' Theatre
was splendidly attended 10y the
school children. Prof. l.. A. Wa

School estimates he attendance
at over 1000 children. The pic
lures were most jndlciOnsly select
cd by the State Board of Heath
for the purpose Of bringing out in
the stronges, manner possible the
lessons they were calculated TO

tical lessons to young and old,
and portrayed most vlyidIy the
dangers to health that surround
us on every hand.
The life history of the mosquito

bursting forth Of the winged
creature itself. This was follow
ed by a showing of the mosquito
gluttOnOusly feeding upon the
life fluid of man. The mosquito
is an enemy of human health and
comfort. The film makers illus
tratod, in interesting manner, the
most approved methods of Kidding
community of the pests and
how children may be interested in

A Government With or With.
Out Good Will

A seedy, bedraggled individual
is hailed before he Judge. A pO-
liceman testities lie found the man
prowling in hallway searching
for a place to sleep. The judge
inquiries whether the man mas a
Job. He has not. Money! He
has not. Friends! NO-his home
is a thousand miles away. So the
court prOnounces the man vag-
rant and sends him to prison.
A christian government! No
a government which furnishes no
assistance to the jobless but pun
ishes them for its own delinquen-
cy.
South Dakota is the first state
in the Union to take the initiative
in enacting a law, as transition
measure, for temporary relief, IN
interest of labor until better op-
pOrtunities can be accomplished
through statels lsgovernment. This
law went into effect July first and
is called the State Bureau OF In
formation Act. Anyone, under
this law, can write or telephone
the Register of Deeds at any county
seat of his or her want pertaining
to employment, as employer or
employee in any line, or their
desire to purchase or sell any kind
of live stock or cereals and seeds.
All this information is sent daily
from each county to the State
Commissioner who brings together
the man and the job, and the buy
er and the seller by notifying
each by postal card. This is done
free of charge to either party OF
the transaction.
If one wants a printer, teacher,
stenographer, hired girl, carpen-
ter or hired man, or some one to
bid on live stock, corn or seed
grain in South Dakota, one needs
only to communicate with the Reg
lister of Deeds in any county.
In short the law provides the
opportunity of free, general, state
wide information, so that labor
may find employment; employers
may find laborers, sellers NAV find
buyers and buyers may find SELL
erS.
Senator j. w. Harris. of Mo-
bridge, helped pass this legislation
much to his credit.

Wheat Raising Big Gamble

The first sign of damage to the
grain crop should remind us that
to depend on wheat alone is a
gamble. If there is plenty of live
stock on the farm dlouth does not
hold so many terrors for us. Un-
der the most adverse conditions
corn will make a good growth and
can be put in the silO to good
advantage. This is the best way
to make the feed on hand 60 the
fartherest. Ten acres of corn in
the silO will go as far as % or &c
acres where it is allowed to ripen
and the stalks are pastured. The
silO and few cows will not only
tide the man over the bad years
but will insure bread ticke
through fat and lean years alike. =

Swattine The Consumer

The Chicago Record Herald has
instituted an investigation into the
high cost of living with the inten-
ton of discovering who is respon-
sible for the outrageous prices the
consumer is forced to pay. One
of the first results of the probe is
an array of facts showing tLat a
steer sold to the packing house for
1925 brought $99.2l at retail.
Look at those two figures again.
A profit Of $79.96 on one animal
between the slaughter house and
the market basket. And yet some
people say, don't monkey with"
the tariff, it hurts business!
There are some businesses in this
United States that need worse than
hurting, they need to be revolu.
tiOnized.
But the facts collected by the
Record Herald 60 farther. They
show that the packer besides what
he sold to the butcher, got Sl9. 80
or % cents more than he paid for
the whole steer, for the unedible
portions of the carcass, This
made the steer sell as a whole for
$l1S.71 or $99.46 more than the
man who raised it got. Nor is
this all. The consumer paid all
most as much for the loin portions
of the carcass as the entire animal
cost the packer; for the flank por-
ton more than the original cost t..
and for the chunk part within Is
cents Of the total price the packer
paid.
Summed up, this is the result:
The packer from the sale of the
refuse part of the steer realized his
whole investment and % cents
over; while the man who went to
the butcher shop ana bought the
balance for his table, gave az
$99.21 for what did not cost thu
