DIED.

Bessie, wife of 81 Knight, after
months of patient suffering passed to
her eternal home, May 10th, at Spokane,
Wash, aged 2S years. Her remains
were taken to Meyers Falls and inferred
in the cemetery at that place. Mrs.
knight was third daughter of Mr.. and
and Mrs. f. b Tubbs and her death
was the first breaking in the family
circle of seven sisters and one brother.
1t seems such a pitiful short time ago
since we, her neighbor, remember her as
a sunny loving little school girl, then a
few years later we remember her on her
wedding day a shy happy young bride,
now she has gone and her three little
daughters are bereft of a mothers love
and care.
Besides her three little ones, she
leaves to mourn her loss, young sor-
rowing husband, and a broken-hearted
father and mother, six sisters and a
brother, and host of friends. Mr..
Tubbs and family and Mr.. Knight have
the sincere sympathy of the whole COM
munity.

Much credit for the success of the

trained the boys and girls for their part
and finally 20 Mrs. w. j Reynck and

NORBBCK CONFERs
WITH OIL MEN HERE.


Governor Norbeck arrived in Rapid
City Thursday morning ,on the North.
western train and held a conference in
the Harney hotel with E. NJ. Foster of
Minneapolis. Mr.. Foster Is the presi.
dent of the Acme Oil company and of
the Ward Electra Oil company. The
former company represents the holdings
of Mr.. Foster in the proven fields lying
in and around the city Of Electra, Texas.
The latter company is composed Of Mr..
Foster, Judge McGee, Clay Oliver, Will
liam A. Simonton, l. W. Herber, and S.
r. Herber, the latter three gentlemen
being residents of Custer, and well
known to a great many of Rapid City
people.
These two companies and Mr.. Foster
own and control about 5000 acres of oil
lands in Wichita County, Texas. There
are about 5000 wells in this field which
are yielding very high production of
parafine base oil of unusually high
quality. These gentlemen report that
the activity in this field is very great on
account of the increased demand due to
the present war situation. 1t is rumor-
ed that Governor Norbeck and bis asso-
ciates have been requested by Mr..
Foster to enter the Electra field 10 be-
gin development work on his lands.
The governor seemed to be very well
impressed with the field as represented
to him by these gentlemen at this con.
ference.
There being such large production
in the field and the land owned by Mr..
Foster and the companies in which he
is interested being located as it is on
ground classified by both federal and
state geologists as oil land, there seems
to be every assurance that very large
increase in the production will be
brought in This field is one of the
most attractive in the entire United
States and all the large companies oper-
ating in the state of Texas are operating
in the Electra ield.-Rapid City Jour
nal.

STATE FAIR lel7.-A FOOD
TRAINING CAMI

Since the announcement several weeks
ago, which stated emphatically that
there was no intention of calling off,
the State Fair this year, but that it
would be operated as a Food Training
Camp in the voluntary service of the
Government, the plan has been com
mented upon very highly by the pub
lie
The Management of the South Dakota
State Fair fails to see why any one should
believe that the war is apt to cause the
Fair to be discontinued. 1t is needed
more this year than ever before because
of the assistance it can give in stimulat-
ing the production of more food and its
conservation. Plans for the Food Train
ing Camp are being formulated rapidly
and the many educational features will
cause the Fair to be of great assistance
to the Government
The Fair is to be held Sept. 10th to
l4tn inclusive, this year.
