SMALL TRACTOR is FAVORED
Profitable Implement II Enough Land
Is Cultivated to Use 1t Econom-

The farm tractor is generally a
profitable implement If enough land
is cultivated to use it economically.
This is the opinion expressed by three
fourths of the two hundred tractor
users in Illinois to investigators for
the United States department of agri-
culture. About one-thlrd Of the men
in this list increased the acreage, on
an average 100 acres TO the farm, af-
ter buying the tractG.s and finding
that they did not have room to use
them t. tho best advantage.

EVERY FARM NEEDS WOODLOT
II Nature Has Not Provided One, Plant
One-it Is Not Difficult and
Will Pay Well.

(By w. j.. MORRILL,, Colorado Agricul-
tural College, Fort Collins, Colo.)
A permanent woodlot is an essential
part of a well-Organized farm. In the
mountain valleys and along the
streams in the plains, nature has pro-
vided these woodlots. In many places,
however, the farmer must plant and
raise his woodlot.
The woOdlot is convenient in pro-
viding fuel, posts, and wood for re-
pairs. 1t may also serve as a wind
break, and for shelter for stock. On
light soils or on steep slopes the trees
will bind the soil, to prevent erosion.
\ woodlot needs proper protection

With less than three weeks of the
campaign remaining, both the Repub-
leans and the Democrats of South Da-
kota are hustling as they never nus
tied before to line up the voters of
the parties in support of their state
and national tickets. The Republicans
have a large number of speakers in
the field, while the Democrats also
are doing much missionary work
among the voters of the state.
With both the Republicans and the
Democrats working hard to arouse the
voters of the state to the importance
of the election on November 7, there
Is little doubt that an unusually large
vote will be cast in South Dakota. The
vote cast for the Office Of president at
the election ia South Dakota in 1912
will be interesting at this time, and
VIII serve as i comparison when the
votes cast at the election on Novem-
Der Z are counted and announced. The
1912 vote was:
Roosevelt, 52.811; Wilson, 1922, a
majority Of 1850 for Roosevcl5.
For and Against Statewide Prohibition.
As the election approaches the con-
test between the opponents and sup
porters of statewide prohibition is be-
coming more animated. The dry peo-
pie profess the utmost confidence that
South Dakota win declare for state
wide prohibition, while recently their
opponents have become as confident
as anyone can be that South Dakota
for the third or fourth time in its his
tory as a state will defeat statewide
prohibition and declare for a c0ntinu-
ance of the present local option sys-
tenn, which enables the cities and
towns of the state to enjoy home rule
so far as the saloon license question
Is concerned.
Notwithstanding the persistent fight
which the drys have made for years
to place South Dakota cities and towns
in the dry column under the local Op-
ton system, many Of the large cities
and towns Of the state have as persist
emily declared themselves in favor Of
controlling the liquor traffic by the
license SYSTEM. thus deriving a reve-
nue. from this source and enabling tax
alton to be kept at the lowest possible
figure.

Tax amendment Opposed.

Members of the state tax commits
sion have recently made a public state
mont strongly supporting what is
known as the proposed tax amendment
to the state constitution, to be sub
mitted to the voters on November Z,
which is designed TO make a radical
change in the method Of taxation in
South Dakota. The public statement
was made with the object Of modifying
the effect of the Dakota Farmer, a
leading agricultural paper of the state,
recently coming out strongly in oppO-
sitiOn to the proposed amendment. As
the Dakota Farmer goes into the home
of practically every farmer in South
Dakota the effect of its stand is fear
ed. especially in view Of the fact that
the farmers Of the state have largely
in the past voted against and mate
rally aided in defeating similar pro-
posed amendments, they evidently be-
ing very sensitive concerning proposed
amendments relating to taxation,
doubtless believing that in some way
such amendments would prove detri-
mental to themselves.
Notes Of the Campaign.
The commercial club of Humboldt
holds a meeting Tuesday evening Of
each week for the purpose of enabling
members Of the club and others who
are invited to be present, including
farmers, to discuss the strong and
weak points Of the various proposed
laws and proposed amendments to the
state constitution which are to be sub.
mitted to the voters of South Dakota
at the election On November 7. In
this way those who attend the meet
ingS familiarize themselves with the
various proposed laws and proposed
amendments to the state constitution
which are to be submitted TO the vot-
ers of South Dakota at the election on
November Z. In this way these who
attend the meetings familiarize them
selves with the various proposed laws
and amendments, and will thus be able
to vote intelligently upon the meas.
ures at the election.
Registration boards throughout the
state will hold meetings on October 81
for the purpose OF registering all vot-
ers who have changed their voting
precincts since the spring elections.
or those who have recently become
voters and will vote for the first time
at the election on November Z and
have not yet registered.
