This week a whole car load OF
Irish potatoes was received here
and sold to our merchants. This
looks strange to us when many
farmers have told 10 that they
made q good crop last season which
they could not soil and still have
on hand. Now is this is really
tho case, there is something wrong.
One thing certain, is that it il
wrong for us to have to buy out.
side Irish potatoes when We can
easily grow enough here to sup.
ply the United States. When We
buy what ws should sell, ws can'
not advance and prosper.

ed more men than Is generally admit
ted. 1t would turn out at more than
20 per cent of the total population.
Therefore, this particular village in
Baden may be regarded as an excep-
ton.
Many of the men hitherto exempt
will be incorporated into the army
not only for direct military service,
but also for agricultural.
As an example OF the fields to which
they may be sent, one may cite the
decision Of the municipal corporation
of Strasburg, which under its mill
tary governor has resolved to devote
all its hitherto uncultiyated or spare
municipal lands or communal ground
to agriculture.
Even the railway company has
been encouraged to- hand over for
cultivation all its idle lands or
patches of ground along its lines. II
Enough civilians are not FUND to
cultivate this land, the army will sup
ply men from its special reserves,
and also a large percentage OF its
prisoners OF war.
Tho railway company at Strasburg
has already caused a lot OF loan to
be dumped o n It's unused grounds.
and Is Offering it In small sections

Palm Talks to the Boys About the

citation Co-operating).
Corn growing in this part of South
Dakota is just in its stage of devel,
opment. The farmers of the not so
very far distant future will wonder
at the kind of corn that some of us
are growing now. No doubt they
VIII have round ears of corn then as
well as now. No doubt the stalks OF
corn will grow erect, and that there
viii be foliage much the same as now
But what ! NEAR is that it will rot
be white OF yellow corn. 1t will be
known by a name. No doubt in my
mind but that the name of some boy
that will be in or has been in the
contest will be closely associated
with the corn that will be grown
throughout these parts in the years
that are to come. And when some
boy will have done this he will have
left for himself a monument, not a
gtanite shaft perhaps, but something
really worth while in the form Of a
variety or strain of corr that he de.
ve,oped.
Who can estimate the value of
Reds corn to the corn belt, or Of
M1mpels corn to South Dakota?
THESE men started something that
VIII remain long after they have gone
to their last resting place.
If any boy in Codington County
wants to make for himself a name
that shall go down the annals Of
time, | would tell him to grow corn,
and grow it well. Not only one year
or two years, but year in and year
out. Keep breeding it up, select the
best n make it better. | have an
idea that such work would be con-
5tructive, and assuredly worth while
o himself financially.
I know of two fellows that paid
more than $500 a bushel for some
seed corn the other day. Wonder
Why they did it? Not because it
from Wisconsin. They would
ather have bought it nearer home.
they paid a fair price for it because|i
t had a pedigree, because it had a
performance record back Of it for

generations.
Wen, this is what / am trying to ge
at. We have the boys corn comics
IN the county again this year, anc
we want the boys of the county t.
enroll and grow the corn. And VIC
want them to enroll in large mum
bers.
If you, gentle reader, happen to be
eiislbie, please get busy at once. o.
II you happen to know Of some one
that you think ought to be a mem
DC OF the contest, why not remind
him of the fact.
we wish that the teachers, the
preachers, the bankers and the mer.
chants who sell goods to the farmers
would call their attention to the fact
the corn contest is on, and remind
them OF the fact that it is a good
thing for a boy to enter and grow the
corn. If everybody helps l don't see
why we cannot have the largest en-
fotment this year since the work
was started.
10 Q a member of the bows
corn contest you must be a boy be-
tween the ages of 10 and IS; YOU
must sign your name to an enroll
ment card, but il you do not have one
sign a post card or a slip OF paper,
state your age and p~ostofice, and
mail same to Miss Reeve, county
superintendent, or myself. Then get
busy and plant the com. You NAV
use any dent corn you desire.
You will be asked to fill cut some
reports during the season, and YOU
Will be asked to write a story about
how the crop was handled. But a
good story without a corn crop won't
amount to SO very much towards Win
ming a prize, so its best to have them
both.
If at any time you think that II
could be of any help to you in hand
ling the corn crop let me know about
it and ! will arrange to come out.
Drop me a line, or call me up by
phone.
We hope that all Of the boys who
we're in the corn contest last year
will be with us again. They, were a
punch OF mighty fine fellows. So we
eel safe in stating to any new ones
Who may come in that tL.ey will be
n good company when they enter
he corn contest.
