WEBSTER BROTHERS
 PURCHASE FINE RANCH

One of the most important realty deals of the past week, was consum- mated through the NJ. H. Shelton office a few days ago when Arthur and Earl Webster, two we'll known young dairy men, purchased the M. B. Brooks ranch in the Fowler district. The property consists of 160 acres and the sale price was $29,500 For twelve years MT. Brooks has made his home upon this quarter section and today it is con- sidered one of the best improved properties in the Salt River valley.
 In connection with this purchase, the Webster brothers are now farming 320 acres of valley land. They have in addition extensive dairy interests, having been engaged in dairying for the past five pears The sale of this ranch at nearly S1S5 per acre is another evidence of the faith in the future of this valley of people who know.

SurbeCk Fined In
Suit For Libel

Rapid City Guide: The larger
part of the week in circuit court
was occupied in hearing the libel
suit brought by Rev. J. E. Thom-
as of Belvidere, against ]. S. Sur
beck of this city.
The case grew out OF an item
published some time ago in the
Journal of this city, in which it
was stated that Thomas had as
suited his wife and daughter.
Thomas claim is that the assault
never took place and that the &C
count was inserted in the paper
tn rough the inStrumentality of
SurbeCk.
The jury returned a verdict late
Wednesday afternoon giving
Thomas verdict of $450.00 dam
ages. He had sued for 100000.

only 2 per cent of our population
will be withdrawn from business

The others of us must do our
duty by the country in some 9th

Only successfully business can
meet tax levies for war purposes.
And business men cannot be sue

on whom they depend for support
continues to patronize them as

War Horse Sales
Stopped For A Time

Rapid City Guide: The pur.
chase of war horses by the French
government was stopped last
week by order of the United
States, and as a result the horse
market promises to be rather
dull until the buying is again re.
sumed, although no one knows
when this will be. Ii is thought
that the order may have been is.
sved for either one or both of two
reasons, the first the fact that the
United States will within short
time need large number of the
animals for the use of the troops
which are to be sent to France.
and the other that the sales will
simply be suspended until arrane
mentS are completed for this co.
untry to act as the agent of the
Allies in the purchase of all their
supplies.
Whatever the reason may be,
the suspension of the sales has
left some of the buyers in this
section IN a position which they
do not like, that of having on hand
a large number of horses which
they had purchased to sell to the
French. One firm alone has over
five hundred head which it had
ready for inspection by the Off
GERS who were expected here last
week, but the order stopping the
sales arrived before they did.
Several weeks ago an order
stopping the sales and exporta-
ton of all mares under eight
years of age was issued by the
government and this put an end
to the sale of mares, as the French
will not accept anything over
eight years old.

United States
Needs Leaders

DR.. James E. Clarke. of the
Presbyterian College Board, act
ing not only for PreSbyterians,
but also representing other reli-
9iouS bodies, and the national or
9anization known as the Council
of Church Boards of Education,
is cooperating with the u. S.
Commissioner of Education, DR..
2. p. ClaXton, Secretary of War
Baker and other government off
cialS in a campaign to arouse the
American people to the nations
pressing need of a trained leader
ship.
Perhaps the greatest mistake
made by some of the nations aC-
ross the sea, said DR.. Clarke,
has been the failure to make
provision for replacing the train
ed leaders who have gone to the
front, many never to return.
Large numbers of teachers and
undergraduates are in the tren-
ches or lie buried on fields of bat
tie; schools and colleges are clos
ed or running with greatly reduc-
ed attendance, and now, after
three years of war, thoughtful
men are asking, What are we
gong to do for trained leader
ship for the future?
The United States must not
make this mistake, but there is
grave danger that it will be made.
Against such a blunder Secretary
Baker and Commissioner ClaXon
and other national leaders are is
suing earnest words of warning.
The danger is that many under,
graduates will think that condi-
tions demand a curtailment of
their preparation for their life
work. and that parents will think
that with prevailing high prices
and the uncertainty of the inn
mediate future, they would better
use money for other purposes
than the higher education of their
boys and girls. The very oppo-
site is true. The needs of the

nation and of the world require
that no sacrifice be counted too
great in order to keep in prepara-
tory school or college those boys
and girls not called into special
service by the government, in or
der that they may be thoroughly
prepared for the leadership which
the nation now needs and will
need more than ever when the
war is over.
Commissioner ClaXton has is
sued an appeal which should be
needed by every citizen, urging
that the number of students TAX
ing higher courses should be larg-
er than usual in the immediate
future. He says: This appeal is
made on the basis of patriotic
duty and he shows that while
there will be an abundance of
men for ordinary purposes, there
will be a dearth of officers, engi-
neerS, and men of scientific skill
in all the industries, in tranSpor-
tation, and in many other places
where skill and daring are just as
necessary for success as in the
trenches. He points out at some
Length the pressing need of the
near future for highly trained
leaders, and shows that young
men and women never had before
them such a great opportunity,
provided only that they secure
adequate training"
The Honorable Newton d. Bak-
er, Secretary of War, said at "a
conference of national leaders
held in Washington in May: THE
nation will be needing educated
men even more than ever before
as a result of this war for the
coming years, and the colleges
must supply them. AT the same
time he mentioned the three
things which he considered most
important for the successful pros,

How You Can

ess, even slightly, at the very
time when it should be the best,
if the country's interests during
the war are not to suffer. What
the President said was really
this:
1T is evident to every thinking
man that our industries, on the
farms, in the ship yards, in the
mines, in the factories, must be
made more prolific and more eff
cient."
A business depression at this
time would be the most serious
thing that could happen to the
United States. 1t is true we
should be thrifty, but We should
not be miserly.
