INTENSIVE FARMING
GOV. NORBECK MAKES APPEAL
TO THE PEOPLE.

Pierre. April 1S.-Gov. Norbeck
has issued the following proclama-
ton:
To the People of South Dakota:
In the lives of nations these are crit
zeal times. The world conditions
now existing history does not, cannot,
parallel. and their appeal for activity
on our part is thus with a peculiar
and unusually compelling power.
A very substantial increase in the
agricultural production is essential
to our ultimate success Our food
supply must be maintained. and it is
toward this end and in order that our
state may produce her quota that |
earnestly urge every citizen Of South
Dakota to fully realize his individual
responsibility and to govern himself
accordingly.
| suggest that our farmers organ
iZatiOns of all kinds meet and coun-
sci their members to increase to the
greatest extent the acreage planted
to food and feed crops and to devote
attention to the maintenance of the
largest possible herds of live stock;
that the mayors of our cities do all
within their power to devise and put
into execution ways and mean of
having vacant lots planted to grain
or vegetables; that landlords request
their tenants to plant food crops
ample for all needs; that careful at
tention be given TO the preservation
and conservation Of all food products
such as corn, tomatoes, peas, beans
and other vegetables. and all fruits,
either by evaporation or by canning;
that boys and girls gardens be
made TO increase their output and
that our entire citizenry give close
consideration TO a more economical
purchase of foodstuffs and TO the
prevention of waste. We do not
but to this extent we can be pre-
pared.
Done at the capitol in the city OF
Pierre this 14th day of April, A. ID.
1917.

VACCINATE CATTLE
FARMERS URGED TO PROTECT
HERDS AGAINST BLACkLEG.

Brookings, April 1S.-Vaeeinate
now for blackleg in cattle. State
college has $4,000 doses of the gov
eminent vaccine on hand for imme-
date distribution to farmers free of
charge. Any farmer without expert
ence may Use the vaccine easily
merely by following the simple di-
rections.
DR.. c. C. Lipp, veterinarian at
State college, asserts that v%accina-
ton will reduce the blackleg loss
from 8 to 10 per cent in unvaccinated
herds to practically nothing at all.
ANY inexperienced farmer may vac
cinate with very little or no risk and
very small cost. The vaccine is a
brown powder which is mixed with
water and injected under the skin OF
the neck. The only cost is about
$3.50 to IS for syringe and other in
struments, and several cattle owners
may cut this down by cooperation
and reduce the expense TO only a few
cents per head.
South Dakota suffers an annual
loss of hundreds of thousands of dol
lars from blackleg in cattle says DR..
Lipp. land this loss is serious as the
country faces a food shortage. The
stockman who views the situation
with unconcern can only be consid-
cred a traitor to his country. Now is
the time to act. Write or wire the
college for the free vaccine now.
Vaecinate now.

Nemesis is knocking at Americas

agricultural expert at Berne uniyer-

belief that America is threatened
with a crop failure which makes her
military value as a new entente ally
most doubtful" and. second, there
is a shortage of farm labor, and.
third, because America lacks pot
ash. so that every successive crop

"The c~atastrophal collapse of the

ID. u. Holdridge. who with Mrs.
Holdridge spent the winter in Flor
ida. and who returned yesterday aft
ernoon Florida may be the play
ground of the people of the north, :
he continued. "But It Is in no wise
the place for a man to go to make a
living"
Mr.. Holdridge states that the
cities of Florida which have been
built with northern capital r most
beautiful. The towns o frequented
by tourists. and which are therefore.
not built hv northern men. are inert
and squalid. He impressed upon us
forcibly the fact that we OF the north
are peculiarly fortunate in having the
soil for raising crops. South of the
south line of Iowa the soil is poorer,
and i'm Florida ii is so poor and sandy
that II requires fertilizer costing SIS
and upwards to raise a crop each

But they need to-the cost of raising
them Is so great.

the president. II would be suicidal
for a mar to utter sedition there. AT

closely guarded, and many streets

Business i'm southern cities seemed
to be normal. or course in Florida

GOES TO STATE


Sioux Falls. April 18.-A telegram
received in this city from Pierre
gives the information that "the gu
preme court today sustained the de
cision of the lower court in the Nc
Clellan case and gives the property
of the late John Mcclellan to the
state.
This decision puts an end to the
litigation in this now famous case so
far as the state courts are concerned.
A similar case, however, Is now in
the United States courts, and Sioux
X. Grigsby. one OF the attorneys for
the Arkansas claimants. when in
formed of the action of the state SUI
preme court. said that he was not in
a position to state definitely, before
comforting with his clients, as to Just
| what would be done. but he was OF
the opinion that the case in the fed
eral courts would be fought out.
without regard TO the decision Of the
state courts.
On the 23rd of August, 1899, the
dead body Of John Mcclellan was
found in the elevator OF the Van Fps
block at the southwest corner or
Phillips avenue and Eighth street,
he having been caught in the elevator
i'm such a name as to crush out ms
life. At that time he was not known
to have any relatives. He was a man
who. while he had lived in Sioux
! Falls for many years and had a num-
her of close friends, had been non
communicative regarding his early
wears or his family. 1t was but a
| short time after his death, however,
before there were a number of claim
ants for the estate. First came what
was known as the Ireland claimants,
but their standing as relatives was
soon disposed Of. Then came what
was known as the Canadian claim
ants who claimed to be sisters and
brother of the dead man. They put
M a fight covering a number OF
wears. but were finally disposed of
by the courts which claimed they
had not established a relationship.
Then came what was known as
the Arkansas claimants. They set NJ
that they were brothers of the late
IJohn Mcclellan. They have been
fighting for the fortune left by the
Sioux Falls mar ever since. The
case. or rather cases. have been IN
the circuit and state courts ever
since. When they would lose out on
one issue another would be brought
until the final decision, so far as the
state courts are concerned, came with
the decision of the state supreme
court today.
The day after the death OF Mr.,
Mcclellan, II. j. Tabor, then a resi-
dent of the city. was appointed spe-
cial administrator. But on the initia-
tive of the ireland claimants he was
finally succeeded by the late William
Van Fps and on the death of Mr.
Van Fps. George T. Blackman was
appointed administrator and still
holds hat position.
While there was never an appralse'
ment made of the real estate belong
ing to the estate. it vas estimated al
the death OF Mr.. Mcclellan that tbs
estate was worth something ike
$4,000. At the present time. Mr.
Blackman estimates the estate TO be
worth in the neighborhood o
SIS, 900.
As the matter To- stands this es
tate will go to the state Of South la
kota.
