ENTRY CLERKS ARE BUSY.

The assistants in the office of the
secretary of the South Dakota state
fair are extremely busy these days
taking care of the entries in various
departments as rapidly as they come
in. Each entry must be copied on an
entry-book and transferred to entry
tags. which must be reserved for the
exhibitor. Each entry has a separate
number and the amount of work con
nected with the records is enormous
Last year there wer 5000 entries in
six departments alone. Counting all
Departments there We're probably
more than $4,000 entries. This num-
Der will doubtless be exceeded at the
1915 exposition. if one may Judge
by the increased number of inquiries
which have arrived at the secretary's
office earlier in the season than ever
before.

That is extremely doubtful, Mr. lockwood. You
built just such gate within very short distance
of where you wish to build this one, the silt
formation and almost water was turned
3gainst it it went floating down stream. But
IF you had Strengthened out the Alamo canal there
would also have been drought. Or
IF you had built eight miles of canal connecting thc
Yuma canal with and had temporarily arranged for
1000 second feet of water from that emerg
ency provision there would have been lost crops Or
IF you had done you proposed to do, completed
the west side canal by July at expense Of $12O0OO
instead OF building permanent canal to cover large
body of Mexican land, very much of the damage might
nave been prevented.
BUT you did no of these things You held dfedges
IN the Alamo canal in deness and directed no heroic ef
