Crop Prospects Big
In North and West.

Sioux Falls Press:- Charles f. Me-
Caffree, state immigration commits
sioner, said yesterday that the crop
prospects in the north portion of the
state and west cf the Missouri river
surpass the best showinss made in
the history OF those sections of South
Dakota.
Mr.. McCaffree was in the city yes
terday for few hours between trains.
He is On his way to join the "alfalfa
special" train now touring the north
part Of state.
"The sections north and west thai
have complaiLed in former years of
lack of moisture surely cannot object
to their lot this season." he said TO
The Press. "And of course, as is al
ways the case, your part Of the state
is fairly groanine with its burden of
wealth in the soil.
Portions of area in this part If
South Dakota are under water now,
of course" continued the commits
sioner. 'But the farmers have not
been drowned out by any means. They
will reap such tremendous harye st
from the dry portions of their farms
that they will forget they had any
water to bother with this year"
Mr.. McCoffree is much interested in
the dairy industry in the western
part of the state. 1t is developing

An Old Subject
"Bobs" Up.

Washington, ID. c.. June l2th.-The
old subject of the amount of mileage
which members of congress shall draw
from the government was up in the
senate toe ay, and the senate, true to
it's ancient traditions, voted to retain
the 20 cents per mile each way, which
the house had knocked out of the leg
islative appropriation bill. The house
adopted an amendment to appropriate
actual travelling expenses to members
and the immediate ano dependent
members of their families. The SEN
ate appropriations committee report
ed in favor of the time honored 20
cents per mile each way instead.
Senator Kenyon spoke in favor of
the house plan; he thought it was
fairer.
Senator Smoot said If the house plan
should he adopted there would be
scandal within year. He said it
would be possible under that plan for
a member to put in the travelling ex-
penses of dependent relatives and SER
wants. Senator Kenyon remarked
that he didn't think member would
do that more than once.
Senator Sheppard said the 20 cents
mile W as adopted long time ago,
when tho cost of travelling was much
higher. He moved an amendment to
appropriate cents a mile instead of
20 cents, but withdrew it, saying he
wished to perfect it. He said men,
bers of congress should pay the trav-
cling expenses of members of their
families the same as everyone else
has to do.
Senator Lane said 20 cents mile
was a graft and it made congress look
like a crooked policeman with his
hand out behind him. The senator
said his home was 5000 miles distant
from Washington and that the 40 cents

per mile each way which was issued
to him amounted TO a great deal more
than 1T cost him to travel.
When the senate came to vote on
the committee adopted to substitute
the 20 cents per mile for the house
plan, Senator Kenyon made u vigor-
Gus. but vain effort TO put senators on
record, but he was unable to ge {
enough senators TO unite in his de-
mand for yea and nay vote. He

would bring up this mileage matter

bill.

Europe Takes Three Times as

Much Cotton.

Here is striking evidence Of the
changed conditions brought about

United States shipped abroad.

pared with s43,s99 in October last
year, and l9,532,3so bushels Of
wheat this October as compared
with 7,424.5s4 in October last year.
In the same month, however, we
exported only 497,ls0 bales Of cot
ton as compared with l,5l7,s3s
bales in October, 1913.
In other words, foreign countries
in October of this year called for
practically three times as much
corn and wheat as last year land
the same thing is true of beef),
while they tool: :.sonly one-,hird as
much of our cotton. Cotton ex-
potts will improve, of course, but
will he insufficient at best. With a
three-fold demanS Tor corn, Wheat
and beef, therefore, and a greatly
diminished demand for cotton, there
ought not to be any question as to
what crops will be the real money

YOU ready-you, yourself, person

Southern farming? Or have you

Oh. pardner come. we must go today
The Wanderlust god is here,
He bids us. Away. from the throng so gay"
Spring time is drawing near,
He calls US to leave our winters stand,
Our harbor from ice and snow
And join his band for the Wonderland
Where the good old wild winds blow.
Where the earth is clothed in natures green,
Not saved by mans great hand,
Where the sunbeams CLEAN on some mountain
stream
In some far off mountain land
Perhaps we will journey to foreign towns
Over a tempest tossed sea.
Where the sun shines down on foreign crowns
And the children shout with glee.
Perchance to the jungles he'll beckon us.
Or away to the Labrador wilds.
But then we must to our leader be just,
For his calling leads to smiles
So pardner come. we must go today.
He is calling. don't you hear?
We must not stay or he will say,
They have left my band l fear"
Then we could not go where the winds blow
Over mountain. plain and sea.

IT'S calling at the waking hour, far distant

The voice that whispers through the space the

Amid the evening silences its sweets omplaint

And through the golden promise brought is
hope of life conceived:
Dear wanderer. I'm calling you,
Dear heart return
Where love is ever first and last,
And home lights burn.
The journey we must plan anew.
with faith secure
To bear the load, to meet the blast
And still endure"
How quickly then my answer comes! IT'S but
simple word,
Yet somewhere down the fields of space know
it will be heard;
For someone sits the weary day an empty chair
beside,
And sets the watch-light in its place when falls
the even-tide:
Beloved. I'm coming bye and bye,
And at your knee
Will marvel at the patient love
Which summoned me;
The gentle courage which could vie
With stress and trial;
The faith which brought the vision of
The life worth while!"

Will YOU COME BACK?
1t All Depends Upon Your De-
termination, Self Restraint
and Decency When You
Leave Here
Star of Hope

Did you ever remark how easy it
is to pick out the men among your
comrades in prison who are coming
back?
Then did you ever-do you ever
-analyze the character of the man
who is coming back and, separating
the good from the bad, the strength
from the weakness. clearly define
the particular qualities that make
or will make him recidivist? And,
having done that, have you asked
yourself weather you have in any
degree the weakness and the failings
that are his ruin?
Ut course you are not coming
back. We grant that-But neither
were Tom, Dick and Harry. who
now march in the second or third
time companies and wear blue or
red insignia on their arms, coming
back when they left here or some
like institution the first time.
If you have been here any length
of time, you know several men who
left here with their heads held high,
saying emphatically, Never again,
never again." and who in a few brief
months returned with the protest,
They got me wrong," spoken with
averted eyes and in tones that told
only too plainly that it was lie.
Recollect this, men who have never
been in prison some men-may do
with impunity many things that if
done by an ex-prisoner will lane
him in prison a second time.
Where the Danger Lies
But the danger is not so much
because of the mark that imprisOn-
ment has put on a man-bad as that
is-as it is in the man himself. The
man who is square may without his
fault, be enmashed in web of cir
cumstances from which dishonesty
is imputed to him; the pure man
may be suspected of moral delin-
quency; the power of the man of
violent temper to control himself
may be dlstrusted, though he has
mastered himself, and each may
suffer because misjudged. but, IN
ninety-nine instances out of hum
dred, sqareness and purity and self
control will triumph over circum-
stances suspicion and dlstrust. On the
other hand, if there is faint of dis
honesty in a man; if he is Smart
Alec who glories IN the thieving
and grating he has done delights IN
scheming; if lewd thoughts and lech-
erous desire fill his mind, and foul
language besmirches his converse
ton; If he yields to passion; if, in
short, he lacks the principles that
make a man trusted and respected,
and does not exercise the self restra-
int that decency and consideration
for the rights of others demand, he
not only draws the finger of accu-
sation in his own direction, but he
trains himself to be criminal; and
unless he revolutionizes his own
trend of thought and makes himself
over, he can no more avoid doing
criminal acts and returning to pris-
on by resolving to stay away, than
he can become king of England by
journeying to London and putting |
on q tin crown.
