Profs. Mathews and Hoy were over
to their farm east of White the last of
the week to see what damage the
hailstorm had done. They say that
everything on the farm except ten
acres of oats had been wiped out clean,
not a spear being left whole. The
storm did the most damage just east
of White where it cleaned up a path
| from one to two miles wide and six
miles long. In this particular strip
there was o a thing left standing and
it was impossible to tell what kind of
a crop had been planted. Between
Bruce and White it struck in spots and
the damage was not near as great as
farther east.
The champion boy good roads ad-
vocate in South Dakota is the 6-year-
old son of Mr.. and Mrs. Edward Pasek
of Wheeler. He is credited with doing
more actual work for the cause of
good roads than any man in his neigh
borhood. The father made an agree
ment with the boy early in the spring
that if he would take a team and drag
the Washington automobile highway a
distance of three miles three days
each week he would pay him 81, and if
he spent only two days dragging the
highway he was to receive only SO
cents a week. Up to date the boy has
not failed to get his dollar, and his
section of the highway is in first class
condition.
Another flowing we'll has been struck
in this part of our great state. This
time the fortunate party is F. w. A.
Kaiser, living two miles east of Estel-
line in Grange township, Deuel. oun
ty. This is the fourth we'll within a
radius Of eight miles from Estelline,
The others are the following farms:
J. w. Harms three miles south, John
Bluemeyer, three miles west and one
mile south, and Henry Boom, six miles
,.or@b o,J ryo bo,,n roocnr RI he
lieve that a flowing we'll could be Sc
cured on every farm within a radius Of
eight to ten miles from our city. The
we'll of Mr.. Kaiser will certainly prove
a very valuable asset to his already
well improved farm. We hope others
will follow his example and try for a
flowing well.-Estelline Tribune.
The State Department of Immigra-
ton has taken up the matter of asst
ing the farmers of the state in supply
ing farm help for taking care Of the
harvest. A branch office has been es-
tablished at Huron with w. A. Branch,
recently of Mitchell, in charge. The
department is operating through the
Commercial Clubs of the different
towns, or other means, and is very
anxious to give the farmers Of the
state all the assistance possible. Mr..
Branch writes that he is putting forth
every fort to keep out the undesir-
able floating element, and is encourag-
ing only legitimate harvest laborers,
men who, in the majority of cases, are
experienced and reliable workers. Men
of this class do not usually write for in
formation and prospects unless they
mean business.
