distribution, and shows that South
Dakota's appropriation for mainten-
ance of it's military department is low
er than that of any surrounding states,
with a total enlistment of 1923 men,
as the legislature of 1915 appropriated
S27,5OO annually for it's maintenance,
OF which Governor Byrne vetoed &c.

ance The North Dakota department

LIS men, $4S,300; Iowa, with less
than three times South Dakota's num-
Der OF men, appropriates $141,00O an
nually. Kansas with m and one-half
times South Dakota's enlistment ap-
p%ropriates more than three times as
much as this state.
The enlistment figures OF a total OF
1923 men for July l, 1914, showing
fffty-eight officers and $40 enlisted
men, is an increase OF 209 enlisted
men of July 1, 1912. Adjutant Cen
eral Morris recommendations for ad-
ditional maintenance appropriation is
summed up in his report: THE rules
and regulations of the wal department
are yearly becoming more stringent,
requiring more time and expenditures
on the part of officers and men. as
well as by the state. The conditions
must be met because funds allotted
by congress are given conditionally
upon the state performing it's part to-
ward maintaining the national guard.

Trees on Lawn Of Capitol.

Pierre. Actual planting OF trees
and shrubs on the capitol lawn began
last week, the Newbury Seed com
pany OF Mitchell. S. D.. having the
contract for trees and shrubs to com
plete the landscape gardening. The
plan involves native trees of South
Dakota, and shrubs which have given
proven satisfaction in this climate,
chiefly. and the arrangement is very
effective, having groups Of trees and
shrubs, according to cOloring of
green, In very natural placement, with
no rows Of trees in formal lines.
Black Hills blue spruce, ash, elm, etc.
are the varieties chosen. From views
of other capitol grounds III file here
it is very evident South Dakota's
grounds will be the most beautiful Of
all. no others having a natural lake,
and large expanse of territory includ-
ing a real ravine which gives South
Dakota the opportunity for the lake
on the east end Of the grounds. I'm
two years the present planting OF
trees, with the special care they viii
receive. will give the finished appear
ance Of the estate which Will make il
a most slightly and decorative setting
for the building. The wide expanse
of green lawn surrounding the build
ing and the lake, and the island IN
the center of the water, have been
in existence for several years.

May Pay Road Tax by Labor.

Pierre. The vote Of the residents
of a township to pay their road taxes
by labor instead Of in cash must be
had each year to hold good. is the
ruling of Attorney General Caldwell
to inquiry upon the subject. He gives
as grounds for this ruling the reason
that the privilege Of paying such taxes
by labor is a special provisO III the
general law. and is therefore an ex-
ception to the general plan Of the
statute and that the general statute,
providing for payment of such taxes
in money obtains at all times unless
specially voted otherwise for one year
only. Also there is no provision in
the special p~roviso for reversing such
a vote. which would mean a return to
the general way of doing-conse-
quently the general manner is in
force each year unless the special
vote for one year is otherwise taken.

Grounds staked for Indian Fair.

Grounds Staked for indian FAIR.
Pierre.-Grounds have been staked
out by Surveyor A. W. S%ymington for
a race track at the Cheyenne agency
for the indian fair which is to be held
there this fall. For several seasons
the Indians have been holding fairs
in various places, and it has now been
decided to hold it each year at the
agency. In consequence some perma-
nent construction work of grand
stands, etc, will be made this sum-
e The Indians take great pride in
the regular exhibit work such as is
displayed in ordinary white mems
fairs, and have theirs in much the
same way. modified by existing cir
cumstances.
Pierre.-The Adams Express COM
pany has paid its taxes to South Da-
kota. amounting to $1,000, which
were unpaid for several years. The
act Of the late legislature providing
specifically that all the taxes of the
various companies should be paid at
once is the occasion for this. For
several years the companies have
been refusing to pay taxes on the
grounds that they were assessed ex-
cessively. The Adams company is the
first of the larger companies to obey
the new law, although several small
ones have.

DIETING TO KEEP WELL

Some people are born with tendency to certain diseases. What they eat either aggravates this condition or tends to cor rect 1t.
 Anybody can see the importance of a proper diet but human beings, unlike the lower animals, lack the instinct that tells them what to eat and what to avoid.
 It is fact that proper diet and 3 good tonic will keep people well under most conditions and restore them to health except in acute diseases where the need of physician is imperative.
 Start today by writing to the Dr. Will Hams Medicine Co.,, Schenectady, \. Y, for copy of the diet book, "Whatto Eat and How to Eat" 1tia full of useful infor- nation and describes the tonic treatment with Dr. Williams Pink Pills for indiges- ton, nervous dyspepsia, for those condi- tions of tlatulency or gas on the stomach, discomfort after eating, caused by lack of tone in the digestive organs. Dr. Will lia,ns' Pink Pills supply the stomach with vell-oxygenated blood without which good digestion is impossible. Dr. Will liams' Pink Pills are a non alcoholic tonic and are free from poi.ons.
 A short course of treatment with these pills will show in an improved appetite, better digestion, refreshing sleep and quiet nerves. Iour own druggist sells Dr. Williams Pink Pills.

TWILIGHT SLEEP IS
 SUBJECT OF PAPER
Read by pr. Julius Rupert Before Medical Association at Meet
 ing Last Evening.

Twilight Sleep" the new medical discovery which does away with pain at childbirth, was the topic of an important paper read before the New Britain Medical association last night by Dr. Julius Rupert. Dr. Rupert has studied into this new discovery much more than many of the local doctors and has even written to the German physicians who first discov- cred it in order that he might have first hand information concerning it. He also received much Valua ble data which he used in his discourse, from a number of the great men in the medical profession in Europe
 Therefore the paper read by Dr. Hupert last night was not one of the ordinary prosaic kind, but was full of valuable information that was listened to with evident interest by the phy- slans present.
