DEER HUNTERS HOPEFUL

Quite a number of deer hunters from
Custer and vicinity have gone into the
Limestone district the past week in
search of big game.
The big game law contains a new pro-
vision, which should not be overlooked
by those who engage in the sport, as
neglect to comply with it entails a pen
atty which may amount to as much as
$50 in the form of fine. The new pro.
vision states that when deer license is
issued, the licensee is given an envelope
addressed to the state game warden. The
hunter is permitted to kill but one deer,
either buck or doe and when he has kill
ed his deer, he is to indicate whether il
is a buck or doe by crossing out one OF
the words "buck" and doe" printed on
the license. Ifhe does not transport the
carcass by common carrier, he is requir-
ed to mail his license to the state game
warden not later than December 10th,
but if he transports the carcass by COM
mon carrier, he is required to attach to
the carcass the envelope containing the
license. When the carcass reaches its
destination, the common carrier is re-
uuired 10 remove the envelope and IL
cense and forward the same to the state
game warden.

PER CAPITA LARGEST.

Pierre, Oct. 29.-That the per capita
assessed valuation of South Dakota is
50, 1901 is the showing of Immigra-
ton Commissioner McCaffree based on
the late census and the assessment fig
ures of this year, which give the state
an assessed valuation of Sl,27l ,6O4,O3l.
While these are the figures on the re-
turns, Commissioner McCafTree estimates
the actual value of all property in the
state, based on the population, would be
at the rate of little over 81, 800 for each
resident, which he presents as Ghead of
the showing Of any other state in the
Union.

The Old Yellow Bowl.

There was a time when we ate
our bread and milk out of fat
yellow bowl with Two white lines
around it on the outside near the
top.
We've strayed far from that yell
low bowl. With our jaded tastes
and our impatient palates we dash
from one rocco phiIansterie to
another, eating strawberries in
December and oysters in June and
paying fabulous sums for fiendlsh
concoctions and calling them good.
All that the yellow bowl meant
has long been forgotten. 1t went
with porridge, with corn meal
mush. with milk toast. Where is
the hominy of yesterday? Who
dares to brave the sneer of the
waiter and ask for fried bread and
molasses? We close our eyes and
scream if we see a man eating
with his knife and yet there has
never appeared any very sensible
reason why he shouldn't. We
have a lot of vodvil wit about it
and we suffer social ostracism if
we fail to use properly nine pieces
of silver at our plate, but all this
we have learned since we used to
eat bread and milk out of yellow
bowl.
Why shouldn't juicy cherry pie
be eaten with a spoonH Why
must the butter plate be on our
left? Who are the Swiss anyway
that they should send their army
Of walters into this land to chuckle
as we struggle with list of things
to eat, printed in a foreign tongue?
