first method. Summer fallow
is q good preparation for rye in
the western section.
4. Does rye have any disease?
Yes, rye is subject to ergot and
should therefore not be grown
in succession on the same land.
The ergot disease forms a large
dark colored mass in place of
the grain. These masses drop
off, thus injecting the soil.
5. Will seeding rye eliminate
wild oats? No, though the wild
oats may not be ripe when the
rye is harvested. some will prob
ably be matured, sufficiently to
germinate if any are scattered
out or dropped on the land. The
rye will help by reducing the
amount of wild oats. though not
eliminating them.
6. Can winter rye be grown
successfully on all good farm
land in South Dakota? Yes. it
has proved the most dependable
small grain crop at Highmore,
making a fair yield in 1911 when
wheat and oats failed.
Z. Does rye cross? Yes. Not
more than one variety should be
grown on a single farm unless
isolated in some manner.

more are of general interest.
l. What varieties of winter
rye are adapted to South Dako-
ta? Swedish and Dean are hardy

2. When should rye be seed
ed and how much per acre?
September is the best month for
seeding rye, but some yield has
been obtained from seeding in
October. November and March.
Seeding five pecks in the west
ern section has given good re-
suits.
3. How should the soil be pre-
pared for winter rye? The best
results were obtained by seeding
the rye into clean corn stubble

On account Of the prevalence
of foot and mouth disease in
some outside states, h e state
fair board last March passed a
resolution confining the showing
of cattle, hogs and sheep to
South Dakota bred stuff.
More recently, on account of
pressure brought upon the board
to let down the bars to outside
livestock q letter was sent to
every prospective exhibitor ask
ing his opinion. The replies
were unanimous for sticking to
the March resolution and there
by protecting South Dakota live
stock.
Therefore only South Dakota
cattle, sheep and swine will be
exhibited at the state fair.
Every breeder of the state
should make a special effort to
take full exhibits. All premiums
will 60 to South Dakota breeders.
According to W. S. Hill, presi-
dent of the state fair board, let

want everybody to come in"

is now safe, and because they

junction preventing the referendum,
pending the hearing of the appeal.
The nearness of the referendum
election would prevent the supreme
court of the United States from
hearing the matter until after the
date for the election would have
passed, and the anti-prohibitionists
would have won their point even if
the highest tribunal would later de-
eide that the referendum was regu-
lar. If the date for the election is
passed it would be victory for the
ants and the whole question would
be postponed until the next meeting
of the Legislature.
The contention of the petitioner is
that it is a power granted the Gen.
eral Assembly by the Constitutions
of the United States and of the State
to say whether or not the State shall
have prohibition of liquor selling or
what form of regulation Of the
liquor traffic shall prevail, and that
this power cannot be passed or del
egated to the people through ref
erendum election. They, als0 point
out that the referendum act pro-
vides for the winding up of the dis
pensaries in case prohibition wins,
and this they declare is leglslating
on a contingency which is invalid
and unconstitutional.
The general public thought the
prohibitionists were certain Of VIC
tory and that the antis were not
even going to make a fight, and on
every hand one could hear that the
result was foregone conclusion.
The first move against prohibition
came yesterday. when attorneys rep

venting the election on the ground

against Secretary of State R M Nc
Gown, State Treasurer S 7 Carter,
Comptroller General Carlton WSaw-
yer and C T Graydon, Zeb Hope and

Watts refused to grant an injunc-
tion, but referred the whole question
to the supreme court, which meets at
Columbia August 20.
Mr. Chappell says in his petition
that he is a personal prohibitionlst.
and expects to vote for Statewide
prohibition in tine referendum elec-
tion, but that he thinks it is uncon-
stitutional. and the election would be
invalid, and it would, therefore. in
volve an unnecessary expense on the
taxpayers, reciting that S35,8OO is
provided for meeting the expenses
Of the referendum.
After reciting the referendum act,
in which provision is made for wind
ing up the dispensaries in case pro-
hibition carries, the petitioner says:
THE aforesaid provisions and Sec
tions of said act are in violation of
Article 4, Section 4, of the Constitu-
ton of the United States; of Article
8, Section l, Of the Constitution of

Mr. Tompkins, one of the attorneys

not say this morning whether they
would seek to take the case to the
supreme court or not if they lost be-
fore the State court. He would make
no comment and only smiled when it

will not enjoin the election. They
are confident'of winning in the ref

taken by surprise at the move of
their opponents through the courts,
would make no admission that they
have any fear of the referendum
election being prevented.
The Attorney General is the rep

Attorney General Thomas H Peoples
and Assistant Attorney General DOM

hold the validity and constitutional
