WOMEN! HERE'S ONE
0ayo you save IS In IN hour b
dry cleaning everything
with gasoline.


Dry cleaning at home is just as
simple as laundering. Any woman can
clean five dollars worth in fifteen
minutes at little cost by getting from
the drug store two ounces Of solvite
and put this in two gallons of gasoline,
where It quickly dfssolves. Then i'm
merse articles to be cleaned; rub .
little and in a few moments the gaso-
line evaporates and the articles look
bright and fresh as new.
You can dry clean silk waists,
dresses, coats. ribbons, kid gloves.
satin shoes, evening slippers. shawls,
belts, Jokes. furs, boas, muffs. neck
ties. lawns, dimity and chiffon dresses,
draperies, fine laces, lace curtains.
wooden garments. In fact, any and
everything that would be ruined by
soap and water as dry cleaning doesn't
fade, shring or wrinkle, making press
Ing unnecessary.
Your grocer or any garage will sup
ply the gasoline and you can obtain
two ounces of solvite at the drug store
which is simply gasoline soap. Then
a wash boiler or large dishpan COM
.pletes your dry cleaning outfit.
Gasoline is very inflammable, be
sure to do your dry cleaning out of
doors or in room away from fire or
flame, with the windows left OPEN

yet the farmer can do most for
himself by growing less wheat
and more stock.
Few things are more absurd
for state like South Dakota
than to grow a big wheat crop,
sell it at a small price and ship
it to Minneapolis to be ground
into -four. Experiences in the
past show that our farmers get
the smallest price possible for
the grain and then, worst of all,
they lose the by-products of the
v heat.
Zone of the most disastrous
| results of this method of grow
ing grain and shipping it out of
the state arises in our inability
to keep stock on the farm. Had
South Dakota last year fed the
grain which she shipped beyond
the boundaries Of the state, we
could easily have maintained
25O,OOO to 300, 900 cattle upon
the farms of the state.
When you stop to think what
this means to the wealth of The
s ate there can be no argument
of shipping grain and not raising
stock. With cattle and hogs sci.
ling at the price which they have
the last few years, farmers have
done exceedingly we'll in feeding
both steers and hogs.
Then there is still another
serious phase of this question
that some of Us, | fear have for
gotten. | would like to add that
a COW or steer is worth $50 tt
each farmer solely because o1
the manure as fertilizers. There
is no fertilizer in the world which
the farmers can procure SO cheap

Felix Fly Signs
With Sioux City

Felix Fly, the Indian pitching
marvel, that last year twlrled
the horsehide for the local team,
has signed with the Si'uX CITY
team Of the Western l., "gue for
the coming season, according to
a letter rec lived here the first OF
the week by Lew Fein, Of the
Golden Clothing Go.
Felix is well known through
out this section as not on y the
best twirler that e er q Ssed them
across the plate, but also is the
most dangerous man with the
stick that e er faced any of the
pitchers in the western part OF
the Dakotas. The Indian won a
big reputation as pitcher last
season when he pitched for the
locals and won the majority Of
his games. He also had the
highest batting average of any
one on the Lennon team, hitting
over 700 for the season.
We feel certain that he will
make good on the Western
League team as a pitcher anC
will have a batting average at
the end of the season that will
make most of the top notchers
green with envy.

Democratic Mass
Meeting Called

A call for mass meeting Of
South Dakota democrats to con
vene in Mitchell at 2 O'Clock p.
m. Thursday. February "a, is
recommended by Senator +. S.
Joi nson and Congressman Har.
ry Ganoy, in a statement issued
today. The t xi Of the state
ment is as follows:
To the Democrats Of South Da.
kota:-
As no legal party state COM
mittee exists in South Dakota by
reason of the decision of the su-
preme court annulling the Rich.
ards primary law, and the opin
ion of the attorney general
thereon, a method should be de
vised to ascertain the wishes Of
the democrats as to who shall
represent them as delegates to
the national convention.
We have been importuned by
democrats all over the state
to suggest names for such dele
gates. This we have steadily re-
fused to do, bellt wing that the
Ionly fair way is for the demo-
Gratis of the state in mass meet
ling assembled to take such ac-
tion as will best promote The in.
terests of the party, to which all
democrats are invited. We
therefore recommend and call
such a meeting and suggest that
lit be held at Mitchell on Thurs.
day, February "a. 1915, at {
clock p. M, to discuss party
matters and to select candidates
| for delegates and alternates, to
be voted for at the regular pri.
mary. if thought advisable. We
lare confident that only earnest,
lsincere friends of our great pres.
ident who have been loyal to the
Iparty and its candidates in the
lpast. and active party workers,
would be put forward as such
candidates. We hope this cal
will meet general approval, anC
that there will be full represen'
tation from all sections of the
state.
