city with a view of talking with the
visiting railway officials in hope of in
ducing them to extend the line to that
city from Madison should the line be

terminal point in South Dakota at
the present time, to this city. luvi-
~tations have been sent to citizens Of
Rutland, Nunda, Lake Campbell and
other places along the proposed line,
to be present at the meeting, and the
meeting will no doubt be one of the
most important gatherings of citizens
ever held in this city.

the state food and drug department.
There was soup a la vermicelli for the
first course with the ''vermi" in this
instance meaning real worms furn-
ished by the t~hickening, which con
sisted of 1e0 pounds of erstwhile pan
cake fisur. Sixteen bottles of olives
and 10 bottles of old Virginia corn rel
ish furnished the appetizer for this
course. The next course included a
delicious salmon salad made from a
collection of swells with the aid of
four cans of salad dressing, seventy
Eve pounds of "mesty" English wal
nuts. sixty-two cans of old "swells'
of fruit and a miscellaneous collection
of jams, jellies and preserves, with
three pounds of cayenne pepper thrown
in to give the salad plenty of spice.
| For desert there was mince meat pie,
| with the emphasis on the meat, and
ice cream made from an assortment
| of preparations said to make most de-
licious ice cream without the aid of
cream. Then for good measure and to
make sure that the inhabitants of the
big muddy might not soon forget their
sumptuous repast, Inspector Cox the
next day provided sufficient seasoning
for several future spreads in the form
of thirty and one half cases of catsup,
containing in all. seven hundred and
thirty-two bottles. Fishelme about
Pierre will probably experience much
trouble in catching carp and other
sucker fish this spring, for they will
all be busy trying to pull the corks
from the cspsup bottles.

That Homer Road.

Of the improved roads of the coun-
ty, perhaps none is more noticeable
by contrast to the road Of five years
ago, than the main highway known
as the Homer road running west and
south between this city and Homer.
The soil in that locality is thick,
black "gumbo," the delight of the
corn grower, but the despair of the
traveller who is compelled to ira
verse unworked roads through it. A
few years ago there were times when
this road was almost impossible and
when the roads dried off they usual
ly dried in great chunks and clods
which made travel unpleasant If not
impossible. Work was begun on the
road last fall and more has been
done this year until there is not a
finer road in the county. 1t has been
graded and dragged in the modern
approved manner which does not
leave a hummock of dirt in the mid
die of the road and the entire road
way is one smooth piece of thorough
fare.
In time it is hoped to gravel this
road, but until then, it is thought
that this method of making the CEN
ter Of the road trifle higher than
the sides, with a ditch at either
side, will take care of the rain in
wet seasons without making the
mudholes Of former days. Time was
