The inspection of milk at the time
the office of inspector was created was
a much more easy task than 1t is at
present. Then the law was new and
the greatest difficulty was in getting
people to accept it, while now the
greatest trouble is in getting dealers
to understand what they must do, how
they shall keep their barns and what
the character Of the milk they sell
must be. The whole business is I'M
dergoing change, just as is some
other business.-New Britain Herald.

Holding a pair of pillow handles,
while horses or oxen jerk man from
clod to clod, hitting rocks, stumps
and roots in many kinds of soil, is the
most fatiguing task in the >agricul-
tural calendar. It is no wonder that
the unemployed of the cities fight shy
of farm jobs wherever they mean this
kind of work, at which moreover they
couldn't earn half their board. To-
day on the big farms the plowman
sits in his su1ky seat and let's the mo-
tor do the work. Riding over the
yielding and lumpy soil for whole
day may not be quite SO easy as it
seems to the man leaning over the
fence. But at least the labor of the
old time process has been vastly re
duced.-Meriden Journal.

Citizens Organize
Fair Association

At a meeting held in the Conn
merciaI Club rooms on Monday
night of this week, it was decid-
ed to get busy on the Fair pro-
position and have the biggest
and best county fair in this sec
tion of the country.
Everyone at the meeting was
of the opinion that a fair should
be held and that it was a duty
of everyone to back up the fair
movement. There were a few
differences as to what would be
better to secure the best results
with a fair, but all were of one
opinion regarding the visabil-
ity of holding the fair.
A committee of seven was ap-
pointed to take charge of the
entire proposition and these men
are now using their utmost ef-
orts to bring the best results.
An old charter of a fair associa-
ton organized several years ago
was discussed and if it is advis-
able this charter will be rejuve-
mated to save the expense of
taking out new one. The name
OF the organization has not been
defnately decided upon but it
was suggested that the name be
The Perkins County Fair AS
sociation."
Only a short time remains for
the laying of plans and carrying
out of the ideas. so that it is alb
solutely necessary for everyone
to push the matter If it is to be
q success.

Lennon Band Plays
At Farmers S Equity

Last Thursday t he Lennon
band journied to Bucyrus, where
they entertained the citizens OF
that city with a number of sell
ectlons of popular music, at the
Farmers Equity meeting which
was held IN t h a enterprislng
city on that date.
That the Lennon band has
made rapid strides in their pro-
gress is to be seen that although
it is merely two months ag
since the Herald suggested the
organization of a band in this
city and it was then two weeks
before the members got together
and organized. Prof. John Lar
son, who recently arrived in the
city, is instructing the boys and
it is said that he has a wonder
ful musical ability.
We would suggest that t h e
business men of the city get to-
gether and arrange with t h e
band to give a concert on t h e
street at least one night a week.

Reservoir is Visited
By Many BatheIs

Large numbers of bathers are
taking advantage of tn e fine
swimming in the reservoir north
of this city and every day cars
are to be seen going over the
road toward this place.
The water has not been verv
warm this year but this does not
deter the hardy boys and girls
in this city who delight in a
plunge into the clear waters of
this artificial lake.
The water has been SO high
this year that the spring board
has been completely covered
and therefore has been of little
use but the platform that has
been used for high diving has
taken it's place to a great extent
and anyone who has a wish for
a deep dive can go as far as he
likes off this place.
The bath house needs a little
cleaning up to be real comfort
able and there has been a great
deal of talk of repairs and clean
ing that should be done. 1t has
also been planned to build anothe r
platform out into the water as
now it is necessary to wade out
about 20 feet from shore before
a suitable place is found for a
plunge.
Last year quite large number
of fish were planted in the lake
and these are to be seen in great
numbers swimming about and
it is thought that by next year
there will be sufficient numbers
to allow fishing.

South Dakota
Awarded Medal
Exhibit of Corn, Grain And
Grasses Takes First At
Big Fair

The South Dakota Exhibit at
the Exposition in San Francisco
was placed some time ago and
has been visited by many South
Dakotans is the report of Com
missioner McCaffre, just back
from the coast.
Mr.. McCaffre states that the
booth is furnished with some
comfortable chairs and tables
from the state house and South
Dakotans are invited to make
any use of them which will add
to their convenience. w..
Lush, recently president of the
Press Association, is in charge
and will look after mail or any
other interest by which he may
help South Dakotans enjoy their
visit at the exposition or advance
the intererts of South Dakota.
The judging was completed
before our exhibit reached the
exposition grounds and the jury
of awards had acted but the su-
perior jury consented to Judge
the South Dakota exhibit as a
collective exhibit after cutting
our entries from 180 to Al, keep
ing IN and actually Judging only
the very best.
The judging was done by two
of the best men in the United
States and the exhibit of corn,
grains and grasses was awarded
the gold medal. Each of the Al
exhibitors will be given a certi-
ficate as participants for t h e
gold medal. The names will be
announced later.
1t was disappointing that the
exhibi ing could not be judged as
an installation and representing
of South Dakota industries but
those awards " ere all made and
that judgement will have to be
passed by the visitors. We spent
just abo 500 to the 81 900
spent by the states which adjoin
US in the Agricultural Palace,
but we believe South Dakotans
will not be disappointed.
Out booth is in the east end of
the Agricultural Builking be-
tween the doors opening into the
Court of the Universe, the Main
Court of t he Exposition an d
right by the band stand where
Sousas band has been giving con-
certs daily all spring.
Secretary Schloss of the Nat
ional Editorial association, find
ing it convenient. loyal to South
Dakota, had the mail for the as
sociation left at the South OAK
ota Exhibit for the members to
call there. Any papers mailed
to the South Dakota Exhits are
kept on a table for the visitors.

Merchants Of Lennon
Give Fare Refund

Railway fare to out-of. town
people trading in Lennon will
he paid by merchants. as IA res
ult of plan put into effect by
the Herald this week. This rail.
way refund will take effect on
Saturday Of this week.
This latest plan of encouraging
trade in an unlimited territory
will be a big boost to the bust.
ness of Lennon, and at the same
time it will encourge out.of. town
people to trade here. Aside from
the time they spend going back
and forth. shoppers from the
surrounding towns will have the
same advantages in buying in
Lennon that local people have,
inasmuch as they will not have
to pay railway fare.
According TO the plan, an out
of-town purchaser is givena
small folder at t h e first store
where a purchase is made. The
amount of this purchase is noted
on the folder and he goes to
other stores to finish his buying.
The other stores also put down
the amount purchased at each
place. When the buyer COM
pletes his purchases he takes the
folder to the Herald office where
the railway refund is made.
One mile each way is paid for
each dollar expended, up TO the
number of miles I h q purchaser
travels. Ii a man living at Hct-
finger, for instance, makes pur-
chases amounting to $24, all his
fare, botn ways is refunded. If
he buys goods to the value of $40
he receives refund for ten miles.
No more than the actual milage
is paid to the purchaser. This
refund is made only on cash pur-
.chases.
The merchants, who so far
have taken up with the plan are:
J. {. Elliott Co. general mer-
chandlse; X. M. Horr, jewelry;
Model Clothing House, clothing
and gents furnishings; E.. {. JOY,
shoes, Grand Leader, general
merchandise; John Rocks, meat
market; Lennon Furniture Co.,
furniture and hardware; Ideal
Grocery, groceries; Chas. Hoehn,
harness and horse goods, K. S.
EVanson, furniture, White Bros,
hardware; Walter Lawyer, meat
market.
There are quite a number of
others who will, in a short time,
wish to join with these progress
slve merchants in this plan for
giving the people from our neigh
boring towns the opportunity of
purchasing IN stores where they
find larger aSSortmontS and bet
ter stocks than in any city in
this section of he northwest,
without the expense of railway
transportation.

have kicked at going out into
the rain without rubbers, heavy
raincoats and umbrellas. wrapp-
ed themselves in their ponchos
and trudged through mud and
rain all singing and Joking a
though it We're nothing.
The encampment was by far
the most successful that has
ever been held, this being the
universal opinion opinion among
men and officers alike. Never
before in the history of the
guard have the men been work
ed so hard, every morning and
lafternoon being devoted to work
ing out problems in tactics and
combat, the last week being de-
voted to combat problems, the
forces being divided into attack
and defense and given problems,
involving all manner and means
of defense and otfense. I'm this
way, with the work varying
each day, the men thoroughly
enjoyed every minute of it, even
though the inclemency Of the
weather added much incoveni-
ence of the men.
In addition to the combat
problems, which formed the bulk
of the work, each day one Of
the companies would spend the
day on rifle range, and on Fri
| day, the last day of the encamp-
ment, rifle teams from each com
pany with the exception Of Com

a contest for state honOrs, Com
pany A. of Pierre winning first
place and Company l.. of Aber,
