THE GRAIN GAMBLERS
AND THE FARMERS

With eighty million bushels of
corn, fifty-six million bushels of
wheat. sixty million bushels of
oats, twenty-three million bushels
of barley, South Dakota would ap.
pear this year to be in line with
some pretty fat times. y
Sure enough this speaks volumes
for the energy and industry of the
farmers of South Dakota; also for
the fertility If her soil and the fa-
vOr of her climate. But, let us
stop and consider for few min
utes as to who gets the fat pro due
el by South Dakota's industry,
With the European war on, with
out a rift in the dark clouds, with
out a dent in the Dardanelles, that
would indicate the coming of bu.
shell of grain from the Russian
fields, with every condition evist-
ing that ever did exist, past or
present, to hold prices up to level
that would give the farmers of this
state fair reward for their indus
try, prices Of wheat, oats and bar
lev have sunk to level that scarce
ly covers the cost Of production;

Dakota has honestly and fairly won

swell the proud purses of the Ar
mcurs, the Patens, the Ryans the
Leighters, the Van Deuzens, who
with their cOmpatriOts constitute
the mighty combine that control
the grain markets of the United
States
Ten million bushels of oats are
being shipped each week from this
country to Europe. mostly to Liv-
erpool, and eight million bushels
of wheat are being shipped abroad
mostly to Liverpool The great
spectators and market raiders,
who make prices what they will,
are buying oats from the farmers
in this state at this time at about
ad average of 20 cents a bushel,
and wheat running on an average
over the state from IS cents to 80
cents bush-l, barely covering the
cost of production where the yield
is good, when the high cost of liv-
ing is considered with the hign
price of labor. What is this grain
worth in Liverpool, where most of
it goes? Here are the figures;
read them and study them. They
will be revelation to those who
believed that South Dakota's farm
ers were reveling in the fat Of the
land when they raised big crops.

1t the electrifcation of the road
from HarlOwtOwn, Mont, to Avery
Idaho, proves to he the success
those who have invested their mon
ey in the project believe and hope
1t will, it simply means that dams
will be thrown across all the main
rivers to the coast and the power
developed will be used to transport
the freight and passengers of the
Milwaukee to their destination.
1t is somewhat difficult for the
mind to grasp the full scope of the
possibilities ahead of this city if
the Milwaukee should decide to
dam the Missouri.
There is but little question but
what the officials of the Milwaukee
have already damned the Missouri.
However. they completed their
great bridge REGARDLESS Of the diff
culties they were beset with and if
there is sufficient inducement for
them to do so, they will dam the
Missouri with concrete and steel
(not with malediction) and use the
power developed to drag their great
trains with and have enormous
enormous quantities still left with
which to develope the surrounding
country.
AS the mind begins to grasp the
possibilities ahead Of Mobridge if
a large quantity of power was a..
sured at all times with which to re.
volve the wheels OF industry, there
unfolds TO the minds eye. not a
little city, such as Mobridge is to.
day. but city wherein the manu-.
featuring plants and factories
would cover far more territory
than is now covered Dy the entire
City of Mobridge.
There is as short anu as safe
journey from the southern cotton
fields to Mobridge as there is from
the cotton fields of the Atlantic
coast states to Connecticut, where
the great cotton mills are, via the
Mississippi and Missouri rivers and
as sure as the sun rises and sets,
cotton mills would spring up here.
Mobridge is also close to the great
wool country and the woolen trade
is vast one.
With cheap, safe and clean pow.
er at her doors, Mobridge should
be able to attract many other in
dustries here, from a million dol
lar packing plant to many smaller
industries.
Right at this time the live
wires" Of Mobridge should begin
to assemble and compile facts and
figures about the resources of this
country, so as to be in position
to take advantage of possibilities
before they bump right into them
and have everybody running around
in circles.

 Series of Lectures

l Before a large and deeply inter- ested audience, L. w. Rogers of New York, national lecturer of the Theo-
 sophical society, gave the first of a series of lectues on Occult Science ? at the Clark & Jones Recital hall
 last night. The subject of MT. Rogers lecture was. Do We Survive Death.

The lecture was largely preliminary to those that will follow each leading deeper into the suh1ect The lecture tonight will be on "The Invisible World" and will deal with
 the unseen regions of the universe and
 the condition of life after death. At the close of these lectures, MT Rogers answers any question dealine with the doctrines and teachings o1 theosophy that may be asked. There were many questions asked last night | that indicate a knowledge on the part of some of the audience also a desire | to learn the interpretation the theo-
 sophists put on the future life and abode of the soul.
 MT. Rogers is a graceful and easy 1 speaker and kept the audience at close attention during the interesting lec- ] ture.
