The Humboldt range has returned
values running far into the millions,
II has been in both gold and silver,
but the great properties have been sill
yer producers. The placer beds in the
American canyons and in Spring Val
lev have been worked exhaustively,
vet il is a fact that the source of the
gold deposits in these canyons has
never been discovered. These plaeers
must have been formed by the wash
ing down of gold particles from a
lodge, yet the gold ledge has not yet
been found.
Prospectors have tramped the hills
and mountains in a futile effort to un-
cover the treasure house from which
deposits of millions have come, but
without success.

of the prospeetors have beer found in
the canyons by other prospectors. The
tragedies of the district have been nu-

Men who believed they were expert
in their knowledge of minerals and
who believed they could tell at a glance
the value of outeroppings, have tramp
Ell across the showings on Rochester
Hill and never once suspected the val
ues which were contained therein. IL
Is possible to pick up samples of rock
on the very summit of the hill which
show ruby silver, yet prospectors have
passed the outeroppings, broken of
pieces with their hammers, examined
the rock and tossed il aside as worth
less. or at least as not sufficiently at
traetive in appearance to merit an as
say.
There is a trail across the top Of the
mountain which crosses the rich out
groupings and over this trail countless
prospeetors have walked, little sus-
poeting that they were walking over
a veritable treasure house of rich sill
yer ore. The district is being proved
as depth is obtained. That ii will

A FAIR COMMENT
HOW A COUNTY NEWSPAPER
SIZES UP THE LAKE COUN-
TY FAIR.

Winfred Dispatch The Lake Coun-
ty Agricultural society held its tenth
annual fair at Madison last week.
The writer was present on Thursday.
There were splendid exhibits of
horses, cattle and hogs, creditable
alike to the exhibitors and the
ty. The poultry display was small,
but good. In the main hall there
was a small display of grains and
vegetables mere handful that ut
terly failed to be representative of
the county. The quality was good,
but in quantity ii was sadly deficient.
In the woman's department there
was a large display that would have
occupied the entire building had it
been arranged for exhibit to the best
advantage. The exhibits in the nee
dlework department were many and
excellent in quality and execution.
In canned fruits there were some
handsome exhibits, but the total dis
play was far below what would be
expected of Lake county. In the
number of entries the women were
apparently far in the lead OF the men.
The writer has no desire to
knock" the fair, but is striving TO
do it justice. The same lack of in
terest exists not only in other South
Dakota counties, but similar com
plants come from other states. The
automobile is charged with being re-
sponsible for ii all. Nowadays the
farmers go visiting by auto and don't
have to depend or county meetings
to talk over and learn what is being
accomplished by their neighbors. So
that about all the people care for is
the amusement attractions. In the
amusement line the fair was a sue
cess. The Midway was almost a cir
Gus in itself. offering a variety of at
fractions. Gambling was noticeable
by it's absence.
But the people seem to new lose
their interest in the horse. So in the
afternoon the band played, the grand
stand filled, the horses went around
and the trick bicycle riders and the
performer on top of the timber pole
amused the audience between heats
and everybody was happy. The
speed contests were good and fast,
all slow horses being barred. In the
evening the grounds were lighted
with electric lamps, there was a dis
play of fireworks and platform at
fractions.
To the lookeron the most remark
able exhibit was the automobile. IL
was in evidence everywhere, and a
count would have discovered fully
200 present or parked near the
grounds.
To sum the whole matter up,
amusement was what the crowd was
after, and the horse racing, with It's
accessories, seemed to completely fill
the bill. The exhibits were a side IS
sue of no particular importance.
Whether the old-fashioned fair Is
to be ultimately abandoned and given
over to horse racing and other amuse-
ments. rests wholly with the people
it is their fair and they will dc
with ii as they please. The talI
management that may succeed Ill
keeping alive the interest in all de
partments will do exceedingly well

mans against the Russian armies is
proceeding much more slowly than a
few weeks ago. At some points the
Austro-Germans have been hard held
and the Russians have taken the of
fensive.
Northeast of Dubno the Russians
have made a heavy counter attack in
an endeavor to win back the fortress.
but the Austrian war office reports
that this attempt was unsuccessful
and that the Russians lost nearly
200 men in prisoners.
The -rtlllcry is bearing the brunt
of the actions in the western zone
and a Holland dispatch reports heavy
fighting in progress in a westerly di-
rection. which might mean an action
in the North sea.
