4. nARTS VISIT IOWA FRIENDS

Hettinger County Herald Mr.. and
Mrs. ID. M. Hart returned Tuesday ON
a: five weeks visit with relatives in
Iowa. They left New England on June
18th in theil auto. going via Aberdeen.
Sioux Falls and Canton, S. D.. to Des
Moines, Iowa. From Des Moines they
went into the country south and east
where they visited relatives in Belle
Plaine and Cedar Rapids and at several
other places in the state of Iowa.
Going in an automobile at this sea-
son Of the year gave Mr.. and Mrs. Hart
the finest kind of chance to see. the
country and get in touch with the
people living in South Dakota and Iowa.
Mr.. Hart states that when going east
he had the feeling that the people in
the eastern part of South Dakota had
the best Of US. Everything was more
advanced and was looking fine. After
spending month in Iowa and then
coming back over the same territory

North Dakota. The crops were good
in Iowa. and as far west as Clark
county, South Dakota. From Clark
county to Lennon the same fields that
looked so nice last month were all
dried out, corn and potatoes being the
only good crops in that territory. After
leaving Lennon on the return trip the
crops grew better and he was well
pleased with the grain on his own farm
few miles northwest of New England.
Cows are the surest marks of pros
perity,' is what Mr.. Hart told the
Herald representative. Wherever you
see cows you see good houses and barns
and the people have healthy and
thrifty appearance. Its wonderful
what difference few cows seem to
make on farm.
1t may be of interest to auto owners
to know that Mr.. and Mrs. Hart Travelled
3.O01 miles in making the trip anc
used l91 gallons of gasoline. They
made the return trip of 921 miles from
Belle Plaine, Iowa, in few hours les'
than five days. The best days run wal
made from Madison, S. D.. to Wall
Lake, Iowa, when 236 miles wer'

kiIdeer Mountain. hoIi-
day Everywhere.

The Old Settlers picnic to be held at
Oakdale August 10Th, will be an event
long remembered, as every effort is be-
ing made to give every one a good
time.

old time roundup cook, anj on artist
in that line.

of the day, and you may be sure of an
interesting and instructive address.
The Sentinel Butte Saddlery Co. who
have branch house in Dick insor. have
donated $40 stock saddle as prize
in the bucking contest. This bucking
contest will be the best affair of its
kind ever pulled off in this vicinity.
as every old time COW puncher in II
country knows the brand of the saddle
made by the Sentinel Butte SaCdltry
Co. and no better prize has ever been
offered for such contest. The Bad
Lands and reservation will furnish the
outlaw horses and such riders as Scott
Gore, Jack Steele, TONY" Schoenlein.
Joe and Frank Kasper. Indian riders
from the reservation and others will top
them. Any one having a wicked pitch
ing horse is invited to bring him along
and try for the prize. The judges will
be old time broncho busters who know
riding when they see it. and no crow
hopping horse will be considered a
bucker. The man who rides this saddle
away from the picnic will have made
q ride worth going miles to see. 4
There will be variety of sports to
suit every one and ell will be given a
taste of the old time rancher's hospital
ity.
Every one is expected to bring lunch
but remember that there will be all
you can eat of the finest beef raised
ready for your plate.
The affair will end with bowery
dance in the evening in one of the
beautiful groves for which Oakdale is
noted, and music will be furnished by
the Dickinson orchestra.
Come one; come all. and have the
time of your lives, and enjoy day
with the old settlers among the oak
trees for which the Kildeer mountains
are famous.
If it rains on the 10th the picnic
will be held on the 18th. The barbe-
cue will not permit of a longer post

A WOMAN'S WAY

Mrs. f. P. Turner, Chairman
Rural Homes and Schools, Farm
Life Commission. saws: Many
men do not fully appreciate their
wives or perhaps it would be
more courteous TO say they do
not understand them. A woman
IS God Almighty's greatest handi-
work and a triumph of creation.
Her mental faculties are highly
developed and dlstinctively
feminine. She is by nature more
lofty, refined and cultured and
has higher sense of duty and
devotion. There is nothing that
so deadens womanly nature as a
home that is commercialized and
surroundings that are compelled
to yield TO the demands of q
dollar.
A swing for the children may
not be a revenue producer,
pictures upon the walls may not
pay annual dividends; musical
instruments cannot be fattened

W. Holt Harris, Chairman
