The home talent play, Under
The Laurels, a five act comedy
drama, will be given as the third

Club Lecture Course on Friday
evening, February 25th.
This number is expected to be a
leader among the different lecture
course numbers and no one should
miss the play. The members of
the company are spending no little
time in preparing their different
parts and you can rest assured that
in attending you will be royalty en-
tertained. The play is of the cen

duplicity of man and the avarice
of woman who attempts to rob a
young girl of her fortune, and is
one that will appeal to all of us.
The kadoka Orchestra will fur
nish music throughout the entire
evening and with the assistance of
the little darkey singers, who
will render southern melody selec-
tions between acts, there will not
be one dull moment. BE sure and
come and by your attendance show
your appreciation of the efforts be-
ing put forth by the members of
the company and those assisting in
their efforts to assist the. kadoka

Newspaper Advertising Best

Harry IL. Clark, successful
merchant Of Lakeheld, Mimi, in
an address before the Merchants
Short Course at Sioux City, de-
clared that the home paper was the
best advertising medium retailer
could find.
1t is the duty of every retailer
to advertise in his home paper, 1"
Mr.. Clark said. 1T is not only the
best advertising medium, but by
supporting the home paper, you
are getting cooperation. Coop
Grafton between the newspapers and
merchants is needed in order that a
town can become a widely known
trade center.
Merchandising today is no long
er mere business employment. 1t
is science and a retailer must be
scientific in order to be success.
A successful merchant holds an i'm
portant position in community life.
He is looked upon as an example
to follow.
The present day is an age of
responsibility and opportunity.
There are all kinds of opportunity
for the merchant and to be success
ful. he must grab these opportuni-
ties. The small country store is a
thing of the past. They now are
all business establishments. Mer-
chandising has undergone a regen-
Grafton and the store keeper must
keep up with the pace established
by his competitor if he desires tc
succeed. !"

Feed Live Stock
On The Farms

One Of the best methods OF
rescuing themselves from a losing
grain market situation is for South
Dakota farmers to raise more live
stock and grow less wheat said
President E. c. Perisho, of the
state college, before the Live Stock
Breeders association at Mitchell
last week. President Perisho as
serted that farmers got 81 900, 900,
600 less for their products last
year than did the middlemen; that
although there is much talk of
building terminal elevators to
break the power controlling the
wheat market, yet the farmers can
do more for himself by growing
less wheat and more stock.
Few things are more absurd
for state like South Dakota than
to grow big wheat crop, sell it at
small price and ship it to Mime
apolis to be ground into flour.
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 pro-
ducts of the wheat.
One of the most distrous re-
suits of this method of growing
grain and shipping it out
arises in our inability to keep
stock on the farm. Had South
Dakota last year fed the grain
which she shipped beyond the bou-
ndries OF the state, we could easily
have maintained $50, 900 to 400, 900
more cattle upon the farms of the
state. When you stop to think
what this means to the wealth of
the state, there can be no argument
of shipping grain and not raising
stock. With cattle and hogs sell
ing at the price which they have
done exceptionally well in feeding
both steers and hogs"
