Here's new, big one to be shown at the Town Hall, Saturday night i'll con. nection with our regular show. Most extraordinary animals pictures ever shown. Tn Tune Witlr the World is depicted in South Africa. A mis = sionary and family are attacked by wild tribes. There is fighting. shoot ing. hand to hand resulting in the escape of the women folks aud the transformation Of the husband and father into wild mau of the jungle through meHtal alteration. The jungle man becomes in tune with lie wild. He strokes ferncious leopards. teases fierce lions. makes wild elephants his servitors, and it is amid such scenes that the observer receives more thI ills than have ever been iucited by any moving pictures unless it has been some of the Selig productions. ''In Tune With the Wild" comes in three big reels, every foot of which bristles tn thrills.

Weston Tomorrow Night.

Concerning the lecture of Edward Payson Weston, the famous walker, who is to appear here, in Town Hall. tomorrow evening under the auspices of the Canaan Boy Scouts, the Pitts burgh Christian Advocates New York correspondent, Dr. Wilding, wrote:
 What Monday morning that was in our Gotham preachers meeting when that famous walker Edward Payson Weston appeared upon our platform and talked familiarly with us about "The Vicissitudes of a Walkerp' What record as pedestrian this man has As he describes his famous feats in all lands, it is enough to make a trolley car blush for shame, and to turn an automobile green with envy. MT. Weston is seventy three years old, but he shows no surface symptoms of this advanced age. It is true that his hair is touched with silver, but it is not the sheen of feebleness; it has the glitter of good, hard, enduring silver. He has a ruddy, wholesome face, twinkling blue eye, and his body is compact and straight and well built He tells his story in 8 straightforward, direct and forceful manner. It is done in the style of business man, and has none of the arts and tricks of the professional lecturer. He is all the time a Yankee, and the twang and colloquialisms of New England are constantly falling from his lips, all unconscious to him. self. He is really fluent and fascinat- ing speaker. He has a sharp and ac- curate knowledge of human nature, and unique and amusing incidents play lightly and easily upon the shining sur. face of his story as it sweeps steadily on. His sense of humor is unique and personal, and always shows that shrewd Yankee flavor.

AS THE BAKERS GUESTS
Bremen and Band to be Feasted at the
 Garfield Thursday Night.

Garfield Thursday Night.
 The complimentary banquet to be given by Landlord and Mrs. F. A. Baker to the members of Canaan Hose Company and Citizens Band will take place Thursday evening of next week, April 22, and it goes without saying that the Bakers will make it mighty pleasant for the brave defenders of our homes and fresides, and the accom- plished musicians who fill the air with harmony and so forth on state occasions. They have a warm and kindly feeling for the firemen especially, whose stren uous work on the occasion of the big fire prevented the total destruction of the hotel and elicited the admiration of all who saw the evidence of the struggle, in the wrecked portion, and could appreciate the work that must have been done to stop the flames at that point. And they have not for gotten the welcome home from their honeymoon, when the Band gave them becoming serenade. And the forth coming feast will be an expression ot their appreciation and goodwill.
 Aside from the feast the features of the event will be largely up to the guests themselves, who are abpndantly able to provide program in keeping with the affair. The Band will prob. ably discourse some of its sweetest airs there will be singing, etc., and after dinner speaking with J. Clinton Rora- back presiding as toastmaster. It is going to be redletter night for the fellows.

MULcHING WINTER WHEAT PAYS

An experiment is in progress at the
Eureka farm of the South Dakota Elk
pertinent Station concerning the
mulching of winter wheat. Very inter
esting results were obtained during the
past season. The portion of the field
which was mulched with three loads of
straw per acre after the ground froZe
up in November, 1914, made a good
winter survival and yielded an excel
lent crop, while the fields which were
not mulched, both on corn stubble and
summer fallow were totally winter
killed,
in sections of the state where there
is more straw than may be used to
good advantage for stock feeding and
bedding, some of the straw can be
utilized as a mulch for winter wheat"
says Manley Champlin of the agron-
omy department at State College. ZAP
proXimately three tons of straw per
acre is sufficient and should be used
during the latter part of November af-
The Brookings register. [volume] (Brookings, Brookings County, S.D.) 1903-1971, 1915-11-11

ter the wheat has become dormant for
the winter. Old straw piles which are
more or less rotten can be spread to
better advantage than fresh straw piles
but either may be used. The old straw
s%preader but fresh straw requires a
special implement known as a straw
s%preader. The straw must be spread
very thinly and evenly for best results,
as the wheat will smother out under
thick punches and kill put on bare
spots if the straw Is not properly
spread. For that reason it is very
difficult to get the work done right by
hand"

Railroads are finding themselves un.
able to furnish a sufficient number of
freight cars to meet the heavy de,
mands placed upon them these days
by the shippers. "Empties" are about
the scarcest things in railroad circles
and every system in the west is str'v-
ing frantically to keep their cars NOV
ing. Most of the cars are now tied up
in the grain terminals and at Duluth,
where the head of the lakes shipments
are started. At Duluth there is a great
scarcity of coal cars for the hauling of
that product to these regions. The
enormous shipments of grain are large.
ly responsible for the threatening tie,
up of cars. Nearly every elevator in
the west is filled with grain and all OF
them could ship out great quantities of
grain if they could only get more cars.
A million and a half acres of small
grain still is in shock, waiting the
coming of threshers, according to the
estimate of Doane Robinson, of the
state historical society, after a ten
days tour of the eastern part of the
state. That all this can be threshed
before snow falls, is not considered
possible. He also estimates that there
will be a hundred million bushels of
soft corn in the state this fall, with not
anywhere near enough live stock to
feed it to. The seed corn problem in
his estimation will be a serious one
for the northwest for next year, and he
urges every farmer who has raised any
corn, which is mature enough for seed
to make every possible effort to secure
it in shape for seeding. He says the
indications are that every bushel of
corr which is good for seed will easily
bring IS next spring. Seed men now
are offering $3.50 a bushel for all seed
corr which they can secure. Experts
Of State College at Bookings hold that
corr which matured before the early
frosts, while it may shrink in the dry
ing, will be fertile seed corn. AS the
late rains kept the corn stalks full of
moisture even after the husks began
to dry, the cobs were filled with mois-
ture, and in drying will show shrink
age, even in case of good seed corn.
