Exhibitors who expect to send

Thirty Third Year.
ESTIMATES OF
SO. OAK. CROP
Dakota Farmer Gives Out Figures
on Present Crop

That the crop Weld for this year
in South Dakota will surpass any
thing in recent years is shown by the
following condensed reports gather
ed by those who have made a bust
ness of examining and estimating
the crop of South Dakota which is
now being harvested.
The Dakota Farmer of Aberdeen
has had a force of men at work es-
timating the average yield by coun-
ties. They place the yield in Hand
county at the following figures
wheat Is. barley 80. oats 35, and
corn 35'40, placing the crops IN this
locality on a fair average with those
in other parts of the state.
Wheat runs from 8 to Is bushels.
Beadle county. however, being the
only n placed at the high mark,
oats from 80 to so bushels and corn
from 20 to so.
The total Weld FOR the state is
placed at AZ, 000, 900 bushels of wheat
and IS. 500, 900 bushels of corn. po-
tatoes will reach 500, 900 bushels and
the hay crop is rated at 81 per cent.
Every county shows an increased
acreage of alfalfa and corn with a
falling off in the wheat acreage.
These figures place South Dakota
in the front row of the agricultural
states, giving to it an enormous
WELD from the soil.
When to this yield is added the
output of stock and of the dairy
herds and of the hens, the state as a
wealth producer will tins year rank
with the best, if it does not outfoot
all the other agricultural states.

DEVELOP THE BOYS!
BY EXERCISE
Duty Of Parents To Think For
Children
The Boy and his Muscles

A Philadelphia doctor writing
under the above title in an article
which appeared in the American
Magazine for June gives some inter-
esting and practical suggestions on
proper exercises for growing boys.
Following is an extract from the
article:
First of all, when a child is in a
poor condition of which the basic
cause is some remediable physical
defect there is little use in giving
special exercise until the defect is
removed. For instance, breathing
exercises cannot be nearly as effec-
tive as they should be for a child
suffering from large adenoids, nor
can you expect good results when a
child has some physical irritation
inducing nervous effects of different
kinds. Above all, you should always
hiioW IllC oIdNC va Jllc Cilllu D L.
If the heart is good, and if there are
no serious renediable defects to IN
terfere with your obtaining good
results, then you can take Up the
matter of special exercises with some
degree of confidence.
when you find Just where your
boy Is lacking, whether in chest ex-
pansion, shoulder girth, arms, and
so on. or perhaps in posture, if he is
hollow hested with shoulders bent
forward, then you can take up the
exercise suggested for the different
needs. And right here is a word of
caution, which will be repeated now
and then, Never carry an exercise
beyond the time when fatigue begins.
Do not continue it to exhaustion; but
when the boy begins to feel tired,
stop at once, if it is only after two
or three motions!
1T interests the boy a great deal,
too, to keep account of his physical
measurements. If these are taken
once a month his interest is kept up,
and he is stimulated when he finds
that he is actually gaining. Finally.
do not carry on a special exercise
after it is no longer necessary.
What you desire is a good, all-round
development. and when this is at
tanned special work should cease and
general exercise be carefully contin-
ued. 1t should be said, too, that
such work can never be considered
as a substitute for outdoor play.
This latter is virtually necessary for
all children. These exercises are to
be used as adjunts--to bring up to
standard any set of muscles which
are under-developed."

return. according to Arthur Meeker

Meeker declared that meat prices
may fair slightly next summer. be-
cause they are abnormally high, and
will continue high throughout the
winter. but they will never reach
the level of ten or twenty years ago.
He said meat is high this year be-
cause of last summers drought re-

forced prices upward.

MARRIAGE LAWS
MEAN HEALTH
Problems of Lawmakers and the
Doctors
BY BOARD OF HEALTH

From time to time Legislators have
endeavored to pass laws preventing
the marriage of the unfit. but have
naturally failed. Such problems can
not be solved by legislative enact
ment, vet the question is constantly
put to the physician: Is the marri-
age of a healthy person to enc who
has or has had tuberculosis permits
sible? And it is by no ear an easy
question to answer.
AS relates to prophylaxis. there
are two points only to be considered:
(a) the effect upon the healthy party
to the marriage. and (b) the effect
upon the progeny. AS to the form
er, open tuberculosis is an infectious
disease. and marriage in such a case
involves a prolonged and constant
exposure on the part of the healthy
individual.
On the other hand, a closed lesion
completely arrested or healed does
not involve any risk to the healthy.
So far, then, as concerns the first
point. one should advise uncompro-
misingly against marriage in the
case of open tuberculosis, but may
sanction it in the case of a closed or
healed lesion when a sufficient test
of time Justifies the belief that the
healing is permanent.
As to the second point-the effect
upon the progehy-so vast a field for
discussion is opened by the questions
which are thus raised that it is quite
without the capacity of this article
to consider them. The present mind
on the subject is. almost without ex-
ception. agreed that tuberculosis is
not hereditary in the ordinary mean
ing OF the term.
The recent statistical investiga-
tons of Mr. Karl Pierson strongly
indicate that the frequency of tuber-
culosis among the children of tuber-
culous parents is greater than Can be
satisfactorily explained by infection
Independent Of some organic predis-
position OF inheritance. and. in short,
that the progeny of tuberculous
pal ents have not the same chance
for physical robustness and resist
ance to disease that obtain among
the children of healthy parentage.
On the other hand, it is not un
c. common to see a family of apparent
ly strong, healthy children of a tu-
berculous mother reach maturity
without developing an apparent
tendency to the disease. These are
points which shoulG be frankly made
clear whenever the question is raised
of marriage between persons one or
both of whom are tuberculous.
