GRAB BUSINESS
IN THIS

-Four automobile statesmen and
two piano men have made things
quite lively this We elk for the coun.
tryside."
The above is quoted from a neigh.
boring exchange to show that out
side business men already have
their eyes upon this locality, and are
getting ready to come in here to
cop some of the good business.
They will do 1t by the usual methods
of enterprising business men-by
rustllng, by trying out novel or at
tractive schemes of one kind OF
another, and by advertising good
things to attract trade.
The local business man should pre-.
pare to meet this competition
brought into his field by the prom,
ises of good crop returns. The field
belongs to him. but he must hustle
for it, else the other fellow gets it.

MAIN ROADS BUILT
BY COUNTIES

81 like the Mitchell idea of the
county building the trunk line high
ways," said former State Senator E.
j. Mather to the Daily News today.
If the county builds the main high
ways. a systematic method of road
building could be pursued by which
a splendid system of county roads
could be built up. This would en-
courage the townships to devote
more attention to the other roads,
and the result would be a complete
system of roads in all parts of the
county. As it is, with the roads in
charge of the townships, one section
of a road may be kept in splendid
condition. and the portion adjoining
it left almost impossible. depending

in one township, and the lack OF in

course this last year was a little un-

1t is understood that both Rec

independent elevators. In this city
there are three line elevators, one

HIRED
LEFT ON BENCH

Rockham Record: Many people
attended the Old Settlers Picnic at
kenyon's grove. near Burdette,
Saturday, expecting to see a good
ball game. However, they were
sadly disappointed. After the Cubs
went incumbered with a battery,
second to nothing in the state, said
battery was obliged to play the
bench while the balance of the Cubs
participated IN a burlesque game
with Wheaton ball nine. The game
lasted nine innings, the final
score being 10 to 81 in favor of the
Cubs. The most amusing incident
of the entire game occurred at the
close of the seventh inning when the
Wheaton pitcher demanded IN extra
dollar to finish the game. His be-
hest being granted he proceeded to
give the Cubs 9 hits and IL scores in
the next two innings.

CELEBRATE LIKE
WHITE FOLKS
Progress of the Sioux Indians on
Nearby Reservations

Some twenty. five to thirty years
ago it was a very novel and romantic
idea to have a bunch of Indians
GENE from their reservation TO me
of the nearby towns and watch the
white folks celebrate the fourth of
July. or hold a fair. Thew were at
traction to white folks newly arrived
from the east, and they enjoyed the
white mans sports. but took no
part. Their progress and change in
this quarter of a century is thus
noted by an exchange:
Vivian Wave: The Indians had
quite a rousing tine e DAYS celebra-
ton at the Lower Brule Agency
again this wear. Sunday, the fourth
day, was devoted to religious SER
vices The Indians INDUCED in
their various native singing, dances,
etc. and the races, base ball, dane
ing at the school and other sports
were quite similar to ordinary ceIe.
brations. The celebration was PLAN
ned, managed, financed and carried
through by a large committee of
full blood Sioux Indians, and their
celebration was a great credit to
their ability to thus plan, manage
and execute such a celebration.
There we're two ball games, one Fri
day and one Saturday. between the
Lower Brule Indians and an aggre-
cation of Reliance and surrounding
country PLAYERS. The Indians won
out in Fridays game, but lost to the
whites in the Saturday game. We
understand that the Indians plan to
have a celebration at Lower Brule
every year and a fair in the fall each
year. The fair is also to be managed
financed and carried out by the In
dams each year.

BIG MUDDY
TO SHIP 0

A couple of Gregory county stock
men last week made a practical
demonstration of the value of the
Missouri river. They got hold of
one of the few old river steamboats,
left, took it to a point near their
farm. loaded it with hogs and steam
ed down the river to Sioux City.
They sold their hogs, loaded up with
fencing material for their ranch and
returned home. The question of
shipping coal down river from the
Ignite coal mines is also being re-
yived.
1t has been so many years since
ANYTHING of this kind has been done
that 1t has attracted general atten.
ton over the state. 1t is possible,
however. that the old Missouri is
not reliable enough to be of very
general use.

Pierre 8, Miller 4

The local ball team went to Pierre
Monday, and left a record Of 81 on
the wrong side with the capital city
team. That away-from-home jinks
is still with the team. Of course
the locals state that they only had
about half their regular team-but
that wasn't Pierre's fault! A re-
turn game will be played here in the
near future. IL the Press was a
city daily, with privilege of criticism
and advice. it would tell the locals
they need systematic practice and
positive management to overcome
this losing games by fukes, but of
course, the Press don't want to
make the boys so sore that they will
go to it like bear cats-so we WON'T
mention it!

on the Chester Thomas place, eight
miles southeast Of Orient, off the
foundation and completely demolish-
ed his hog house. Quite a little hail
fell in that vicinity. tho no meterial
damage resulted.
Joe Walton. from several miles
southeast OF Orient, who has resided
on the farm a short ways this side of
Miller for some time past, was in
Orient last Saturday, the first time
for several years. He returned to
his old haunts recently in order to
secure a larger range for his nice
bunch of cattle.
Two cars Of hogs, shipped by
Dienslake & Co. to South st. Paul,
and a car Of cattle to Chicago by
Geo. Mckay. made up the weekly
stock shipment from Orient last Sat-
urday. The cattle represent some
5000 and the hogs about So, 900 and
there's plenty more of the critters
in the country laying on fat at the
rate of 'steen pounds a day.
During the month Of June 500
cans of cream were shipped out of
Orient over the Milwaukee, destined
to foreign creameries. Up until the
18th Of the present month. the total
cans shipped was 35S. Therefore, If
the present amount holds up the
balance Of July a record will be
made. The dairy business is the
best one the farmer can engage in
and. with a sufficient increase in
alfalfa acreage. this section will
eventually develop into one Of the
greatest dairy sections of South Da-
kota.

AT HARVEST TIME

The "bo" is oil his way to South

percentage of him are not so right.
Perhaps a safe plan would be to feed
him il he earns it. Otherwise not.
And keep the doors locked when you
leave the house. The DO cannot be
cured, so it is well to endure him in
the best way possible-which is to
trust him not. and feed him If he
