SOUTH DAKOTA MIN Es.

South Dakota mines in 1916 produced
81, 400, 4S9 in gold, 2l5, POI ounces of sill
yer, and 35,406 pounds of lead, with a
fetal value of S7,604, ,534, which was a
small increase over the production of
1915 and the largest output since 1912
The output for the first six months of
1917, according to Charles w. Hender-
son, of the United States Geological Sur
vey, indicates that for the whole year
1917 there will probably be reduction
Of $780, 600 in gold, as the Wasp No 2
and the New Reliance mines and mills,
both closed at the end of 1916, were idle
during the first six months of 1917 and
probably will not resume operations dur
ing this year. Work will probably not
mill, idle since 1914. The high price Of
machinery, zinc and chemicals necessary
in the cyanide process and reduction Of
the cyanide precipitates to bullion may
force some of the other properties to
close before the end of 1917. The Home
stake mines and mills, which produce
the bulk of the production of the Black
Hills district, South Dakota, have been
operated continuously, with a regular
output, during the first six months of
1917, and unless the labor situation in
terferes will probably continue steadily
throughout the year.

CHANCE FOR YOUNG MEN.

The following letter was received from
Congressman Candy this week and
should be read by every young Ameri-
can in this part of South Dakota who is
eligible for candidacy either at West
Point or Annapolis
II will appreciate it if you will give
some publicity to the fact that / have
several vacancies at the u. 5. military
academy at West Point and at the u. s.
naval academy at Annapolis that will be
filed in the spring of 1918. Since | be-
came a member of congress, notwith.
standing numerous recommendations,
but one young man from western South
Dakots has passed the mental and physi-
cal examinations and been admitted to
either one of these academies, that be-
ing Ralph Brooks, of Deadwood, S. D.,
who is now in his second year at An
napols The examinations are very
hard and young man should have
especial training therefor. / regard
these recommendation as the very fin
est within my gift, for young man who
passes the examination is assured four
years of schooling in as fine school as
there is in the world with all expenses
paid and an opportunity for an officer
commission upon his graduation. A
young man who has either completed
the four years high school course or has
had three years thereof who will enter
some preparatory school this fall would
have good chances to pass the examina
ton. The ages for West Point are
seventeen to twenty-one and for Annap
oils are sixteen to twenty. Young men
who write me about this should 60 into
detail with relation to the school work
they have bad and give their parent.

A CALL FOR
COMMUNITY CANNERS

If the man who makes two blades of
grass grow where one grew before is a
benefactor to his race, surely the woman
who not only makes two beans grow
where one grew before in her garden,
but learns TO can or dry or otherwise
preserve that extra bean for winter use,
is both an ornament to her home and a
useful member of society.
In and around Custer are number of
women who have the act of food preser-
vation for winter SO well learned that
others would like to know the secrets.
The suggestion has been made that at an
informal gathering these bits of can
ned" wisdom be exchanged, for the
| benefit of all.
So all women interested are invited to
meet at the home of Mrs NJ. j Bailey,
Thursday, July Goth, at two o'clock, to
discuss particularly the subject of meat
and vegetable canning To expedite
matters, jot down and bring with you
questions you would like to ask, the
things in which you are an expert can
ner, the little secrets OF successful can.

Pierre special of the 18th inst. says
that State Game Warden Hedrick was
enroute TO the state forest and game
preserve where he will put force of
men at work on improvements. These
will in part consist in highway improve
ments. Since the tract has been set
aside as state reserve, Custer county
has ceased to do anything in the way OF
road work within the reserve, and as a
result the roadways on the tract are be-
coming practically impossible. The
state will have to take up the work OF
highway building practically on this
tract, and part of the work will likely
be in the way of concrete bridges and
| culyerts.

IN MEMORY OF j. NJ. BOOKER
The sun is sinking in the West,
The day is done, the troubling stilled
And locked within the silent breast,
The grips that bruised, the joys thai
thrilled,
Alone, where day and twilight meet
The last faint battle fought and won.
The clay, pail, a winding sheet,
A sigh, tear and all is done.
Ye winds that sigh in yonder trees,
And stir the grasses with your breath
Say, bring ye victory and peace,
Or tell of faded dreams and deathp
Perchance where thousand world
complete,
One twinking star the tale may tell,
Where soul, reborn pure and complete
Beyond the pale of earth shall dwell.

FINAL PLANS MADE FOR
ANQOSpURA SURVEY

Pierre, July l4.-It may prove of in
terest to your readers to know that the
State Engineer has made final arrange
ments with the engineers of the U. S.
Reclamation Service at Denver for the
completion of the survey of the Angos-
tura project in Fall River and Custer
counties. The first part of the investi-
cation will begin at the dam site, as the
dam will be approximately one-third the
cost Of the entire project, and much de-
pends upon its feasibility. There are no
fears to be entertained in that direction,
however, and upon satisfactory results
being obtained ior a foundation land
there is every confidence to think that
such will be the Case), the investigation
will be continued to other features of
the project. There is no question about
the fertility Of the soil or its suitably for
irrigation, and stream guagings that have
been carried on for a term of years on
the Cheyenne River at Edgemont and
Cascade Springs have proven conclusive
ly that the water supply is ample for
irrigating over 100000 acres. A gov
ernment diamond drill outfit for making
borings at the dam site is now on its
way from Salt Lake via Denver, and
should be upon the ground by July
goth.

1t will soon be the time of the year
when there will be more or less danger
from prairie fires in many portions OF
our state, and we especially urge that
farmers see that their buildings and
especially all their field stacks are pro-
vided with fire guards Township fire
guards should be provided for, and if
possible those along the county lines
should also be made. The importance
of avoiding loss to our growing or har-
vested crops is of double importance this

General Rules.

Buy less. Serve smaller portions.
Preach the Gospel ofthe Clean Plate.
Don't eat fourth meal.
Don't limit the plain food of growing

Watch out for the wastes in the com

If the more fortunate of our people
will avoid waste and eat no more than
they need, the high cost of living of the
less fortunate will be solved.

in your editorials, especially the two:
when we all get down to war" and
How fast the coal goes" The two
should have been run as one. When
we can get every man at work every
day the problem of keeping his chill
dren suitably clad for school will not
be such serious one; in this cruelty
cold weather teachers tell pitiful tales
of children coming to school half clad,
and apparently half nourished, and are
making appeals to their friends for
something to put on the little things;
housewives are scurrying around to
find what has escaped the Belgian re-
lief barrels. But it Is noticeable fact
that these half clad ones are the chill
dren OF fathers who refused to work
last summer except occasionally = Gay,
and who when they promised to work
could never be depended upon to ap-
pear. They doubtless know that the
charitably inclined people OF the town
will not see their children suffer. II in
