There is one thing that never gluts the market-the supply is never equal to the demand-no men or body of men ever got a corner in it. This is common sense, so-called perhaps be- cause it is one of the most uncommon things met with in life. What is com mon sense? Seeing things as they are and doing things as they should be done If you observe the people around you perhaps you will discover many of them are ambitious to be what they can't be- This is what some people call having an ideal. It may be since it is far from having common sense. Most of us do not know a well-bred dog is better than an ilI-bred- man, and this is where we show d lack of sense How many know you can't inherit ability, but must hustle for experience If you know all there is to be known what does it amount to if you don't know how to use it. Sense recognizes every thing as being useful; and common sense prompts to making the right use of it.

HE MAN WHO TALKS

We all plan to have a good time in life. but we appear to De unconscious of the fact that nothing good should p4oduce evil results. If anything good does prove harmful it is because in cur selfishness we pitched in and tried to get too smuch of good thing Qverdping Is quite as bad as under doing. if not worse. Tn the first place a body must be in good spirits, in an arpiable mood, to have a good time. It is not the good of some one else. but the good in us which makes a good time for us. That which pleases us is good time and that which prof It's us is a better time. We must de- pend largely upon ourselves for happi- ness If we are not in the right mood the happiness of others makes us un- happy. To have a good time one should not expect too much, but should be able to enjoy ever so little. There are no ready made good times. If others make a good time for us we must be in the mood to happily re- spond to 1t.

The dahiia is not a Butterfly flower hence there is usually a scarcity of them in the dahlia patch; but notice Monarch butterfly which takes to a shell-pink dahlia with a lemon yellow ring and he comes to it every day. It is not a close-centered flower but one of those open-faced, generous-hearted blooms that make a real welcome to all It could not look more vain if it knew it was pretty; and the Monarch butterfly kisses it's face and sucks the nectar from it's honey tubes, and ling CTS as if he knew he was in good, hospitable company. He doesn't visit the other dahlias nearby but seems to have a fancy for that particular flow CT, just as I have. He doesn't bring his young ones to see it, for he has left them to feed and flourish on a miikweed somewhere-tender greens and sweet milk are good for them. He doesn't know he has family, or any poor relations. This may be a case where ignorance is bliss. and why the butterfly life is so popularly regarded as happy life. He don't know he is a monarch, or that a thing of beauty is a joy forever"

promises TO possess a number of inl-
portanU features, and which doubtless
will be one of the hottest campaigns
ever waged in South Dakota.
1t is known that the democrats Of
the state are preparing to take full
advantage of the alleged sore spots
which have been left as the result Of
the recent hot fight between the two
republican factions for success at the
primary election on March "a. While
the old-line republicans of the state
succeeded in nominating their candi-
date, Charles II. Bnrke, TO the United
States senate, this one office will be
the only representation they will have
on the congressional and state ticket
which will come before the voters of
of the state at the election in Novem-
Der.
While the democrats do not expect
to be able to defeat Mr.. Burke, they
will it is believed, concentrate their
efforts on the governorship, hoping to
defeat Governor Byrne by electing
Judge McCarter. their nominee for
the Office.
The certainty that the bull moosers
will have a candidate in the field for
all the officers including chat of COVER
nor. and with the possibility that r.
o. Richards of Huron, independent
progressive republican candidate for
nomination at the recent primary cleo
ton to the Office of governor, will be-
come an independent candidate for
the governorship and contest with
Governor Byrne tor a victory at the
November election, will greatly COM
plicate the situation. and because of
these opposing candidates. all draw
ing their votes from the republican
party of the state, the democrats be-
lieye they have the chance of life
time to put over" their candidate
for governor.
The democratic newspapers of the
state in their current issues intimate
that a hot fight will be made by them
against Governor Byrne, and that
they will make the most of the alleg-
ed alliance between Governor Byrne
and the Homestake Mine interests in
the Black Hills, Governor Byrne hav-
ing received majority of more than

SUGAR BEETS IN
SOUTH DAKOTA

Sugar beets, raised on a CONNER
cial basis, yielding as high as 2i tons
to the acre and with a sugar content
OF 25.4 per cent, are the latest achieve
ment at the South Dakota state col
lege at Brookings. according to an
article appearing in the March 21 is
sue of "The Country Gentleman -
from the pen of George A. Starring,
of Brookings.
The new beet, called the "South Da-
kota kind that is a quarter sweetness
vas developed by Prof. James II.
Shepard, chemist of the South Dako-
ia state college and experiment sta
ton, who has been working on a su-
gar beet for the prairie states since
the early SOS. 1t was 1891 before Prof.
Shepard was able to secure genuine
seed and even then progress was slow,
the sugar content being low in these.
Slowly, year by year, he tested each
beet, at first rejecting as high as 80
per cent, for planting the next year,
lessening the percentage rejected
gradually, replanting mother beets.
safeguarding them from crossing with
inferior strains. then repeating the
cycle, until in 1912 he found it neces-
sary to reject only 10 per cent, and
had beet average 20 per cent sugar
Summarizing, Mr.. Starring says:
8 81 Il. r.. l..
pertinent station has developed su-
gar beet yielding from one-fifth to
one foul tn its weight in sugar and
more than 30 tons to the acre-wlth-
out irrigation and without artificial
fertilization. In order to produce an
equal value Of wheat the Dakota farm
er would haye to coax his land 10 yield
the impossible crop of 10 bushels to
the acre. The 1912 beet crop of the
South Dakota state college expert
ment station ran so uniformly and
true to type that the rejected beet
averaged higher analysis of sugar
Than that reported for the regular
commercial beet crop of the United
States. The average tonnage in the
United States in recent report was
less than / ton an acre, with sugar
content under 16 per cent. Further
more, no Dakota experim. ntal beet
crop has ever failed'
This means that South Dakota is in
a position to rightfully lay claim to
the worlds record for growing ICON
centrated sweetness" and all South
Dakotans who read Mr. Starring's ar
ticle see visions of new state with
new wealth and prosperity, great fac
tories, no crop failures, increased pop
ulation, increased soil fertility, cheap
food from the waste products of the
factories, and, lastly, increased land
values.
If the tests at the state college are
prophetic, as Mr.. Starring says. "the
day is not far distant when the prairie
state will be known by their sugar
production rather than by their broad
acres Of wheat and their occasional
crop failures.

WILSON ON
TOLLS ISSUE

Washington, March 30.-President
Wilson declared today that ON ac.
count of contradictory statements i'm
the Baltimore platform the democrats
should have no hesitation i'm voting
for the repeal of the Panama canal
tolls exemption.
The president emphatically charac-
terized the exemption as a subsidy
and pointed out that one plank in the
Baltimore platform expressed opposi-
ton to any subsidy, direct or indirect
while another plank declared for the
toll exemption, The president assert
ed there should be no doubt among
democrats as to which should take
precedence.
The president reiterated that the ex-
emution never was policy of the
democratic house because it was pass
ed through coalition of republicans
and minority of democrats, the ma
jority OF democrats voting against it
on the ground that it was a subsidy.
The president explained that even
if the international situation, to which
he referred in his message, had not
arisen he would have been opposed to
tolls exemption as agoinst democratic
doctrine. But he indicated. however
that if it were not for the information
al situation he did not feel that it
would have been proper for him to
question the acts of previous admin
istration.
Mr.. Wilson talked frankly about the
tolls controversy in congress saying
that the story that he entered into a
bargain with Great Britain through
Sir VIM. Tyrrell. private secretary to
Sis Edward Grey, was one of a num-
ber of insults that had been introduce
ed in the congressional debate. The
president declared he wanted to ex--
press his regret that what had prom
ised to be a digniied contest through
genuine difference of opinion seemed
to be degenerating, in his opinion, in
to an attempt TO discredit the admin.
! istration.
| He remarked that while it made all
the more certain the result in favor Of
the administration he thought it a
great pity that public Affairs should be
handled that way. He did not think
all the opponents of repeal felt that
way, but such color had been inter-
! iected into the controversy and he
did not understand the motive for it.
The president said he had no anxiety
over any political friction in the dem
ocratic party over the result and re-
ferred to che repeal contest as not a
''capital operation," but just as "con-
yalescent.o
Mr.. Wilson let it be known that he
was unqualifedly opposed to any
compromise or amendment such az
had been proposed in the senate. He
is for straight repeal without equiv
ocation.
