THE ROLL OF MANHOOD

Washington, June 6.-The mighty
roll of honor of American manhood
had beg un 10 reach Washington to-
night from the states that completed
their count of the men of military
age registered yesterday. AT a late
hour only a few complete reports had
been received, but a preliminary I'M
official returns were sufficient to
show that millions of men await the
call to coloTs.
The official figures were too scant
for an accurate estimate of the total
of the men who have registered. The
first reports showed that the census
bureau estimates OF eligibles had not
been equalled, but officials pointed
out that the numbers by which one
OF two cities alone had exceeded the
estimates would wipe out the entire
deficiency of the several smaller
states sending In the first official re-

The registration by counties receiv
ed by the Governor SO far are:
AMERICAS FIRST VICTORY

More than ten million men in Ameri-
ca liable for military duty at an early
date were registered Tuesday. The
registration was accomplished without
disorder OF any kind. True there were
places where there was some slight
troubles but on the whole it was negli
gible, was not as noticeable as would
be a slightly intoxicated man at a 18th
of July celebration. The troubles that
were caused by persons whose minds
were not we'll balanced.
The result of the registration is high
ly satisfactory to America and her
allies and equally disappointing to the
Kaiser and his allies who have hoped
there would be wholesale resistance
and disorders on a large scale. It is
evident they have misjudged the tenn
per of the American people, especially
the temper Of former subjects of Ger
MANY and her allies. They have never
comprehended as they must compre-
bend now that their former subjects
now in America are American citizens
fully appreciative of The opportunities
and liberties afforded them by the Am
erican government of which they are a
part.
But the whole work is not completed
and there may still be lurking in the
kaiser's breast the hope that when the
draft comes, when the men are selected
to go the front there will be resistance.
In that, too, the kaiser is doomed to
di disappointment. America has seen
the. only resistance to its war plans.
The resistance has consisted of the talk
of the few traitors who may be found
in any country, of the rambling sense
less talk of irresistables who nav be
found in any country. but all of the
soulless Of it is q thing of the past and
it is demonstrated that American peo-
pie are unitet in the fight for democ-
racy, which ultimately must win its
fight with autocracy.
Again will the kaiser and his fellows
be disappointed when they learn, as
they surely will IN due time. that the
American people have over-subscribed
to the liberty loan and that they stand
ready to subscribe again and again if
the necessity should arise.
America and democracy won their
first great victory Tuesday. 1t was a
complete victory. The verdict was
unanimous. There will be other vic
tories and other unanimous verdicts.
America does things in positive man.

PUBLIsHED AT THE STATE CAPITAL

COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER
Untcred ct the Post-Ofice atPierre, South Ds
kota. 40 mail matter Of the second class.

Al bill which, it passed, might pave
the way to proper settlement OF
Fundamental social problems, has
been introduced by Senator Sheppard
Of Texas for q land settlement and
homestead commission. Senator
Sheppard represents a state which
has been transformed from q COM
mOnwealth Of home owners to ono
wherein 6fty.two per cent of the far
mers are tenants. He must have
noted the failure Of efforts to deal
with this situation by palliative
measures such as arbitrary regula-
ton Of rent by law. His bill prob
ably expresses q desire for a remedy
that will actually cure. Among
other things the proposed commits
sion ID to inquire into proposed means
to keep home owners on the soil,
regulate land speculation and absen-
toe landlordism and prevent ooncen-
tfation Of land ownership. Although
political economists have solved
these problems an endorsement of
their conclusions by q duly author
lied commission will give added
weight thereto, 30 far as congress-
men and other Legislators are con-
cerned. Senator Sheppard's bill is q
wise one and should be pushed to
passage.

z. III. Packard, OF Delavan, Wiscon-
sin, a progressive and practical dairy
man., was not satisfied with his ration
OF homegrown feed. Although he
mixed his ration with brains and it
seemed to be theoretically correct, he
thought he would try out his own
mixture in comparison with a first
class dairy feed. Much to his surprise
he found that he could save about
five lbs. of grain per COW per day and
nearly 5 cents per cow. He figured
his own grain at prices much below
the Wholesale market and bought his
mixed feed at retail.
Also when his ration was figured ac-
cording to Armsby or Energy method
his mixed feed proved to be the right
combination to make a balanced ration
with his w farm roughage.

the best argument for mixed feeds
when it is considered that a large

carded their W mixed feeds and

make as much milk at less cost and
