May BE increases.

These figures are likely to be in
creased in the way Of an addition of
$4,000 for expenses of supreme court
judges, left out OF the bill. and an
increase in maintenance at the school

likely to be materially Increased

education for these people.
A strong effort will be made to get
this bill out of the way before the end
of the present week. and have the
last week clear for other legislation
which cannot be tied up'with the gen
eral bill in case IL is yet before the
houses for action.
The special appropriations asked
from the session so far run into more
than a million dollars. and some of
them have already been bumped"
with others more likely to receive
such a fate than turning over the cash

Nc Danger of MoistureIess Year Now.

NO Danger OF MoiStureieSS year NOW.
Mitche1l.-The fear that South Da-
kCta would have a moistureless spring
this year was dissipated Friday with
the heaviest fall of snow of the win
ter season. in fact in this section of
the state there has not been to exceed
an inch and q half of snow. A light
snow began falling during the night
and fell continuously all day long.
Very little wind accompanied the
snow and the greater proportion OF it
settled where it fell. Farmers in
from the country state that the fields
are well covered. and that with the
heavy snowfall the ground will be in
fine shape for spring seeding. Fully
six inches of now fell during the six
teen hours of the storm. 1t is be-
lieyed the snowfall will be good for
more than a half inch OF precipitation.
Up to the present time the moisture
has been exceedingly scarce since the
early part of October. and with no
clearing of the atmosphere much sick
ness has resulted.
