Pierre. s. D., June 15.-1n order Ia

harvest situation this year. the immi-
grafton department will be assisted
by w. G. Ostrander. who is here from
Bookings college to give his assist
ance in helping the employee and Ia
borer get together. and ins"re South
Dakota's harvest seaso q full Gee
from point Of labor. Last year there
was. shortage of help and over supply
of it.in some places. though in general
the condition was good throughout the
state.
The I. W. w. situation which mem
aced some Of the eastern and south
eastern towns in South Dakota last
fall probably will be averted his year
for two reasons-the CONSUMPTION both
for military and farm use will prevent
any such gatherings. and in addition
to that the passage OF the statute regu-
lating free rides on trains this winter
was framed and passed with that
in mind, for it effectually cuts
off the possibilities Of such mobs rid
ing free and gives train men police
power to full extent
In Texas an act similar to this has
about entirely wiped out the idle class
OF workmen, for they know better than
to encounter train men authorized to
get them of trains.

IGNORE DANDELIONS

Blue Grass Will Crowd Them
Out if Lawns Are Left
Uncut.

Bookings. s. D. June 16.-Give the
lawn mower a two-year rest II you
would get rid Of dandelions. suggests
N. E. Hansen, professor of horticulture
at the state college, who avs: III you
do not cut the lawn for two years or at
most three years, the blue a will
have a chance to seed. In addition do
not tramp on the lawn more than is
absolutely necessary. AS a result the
grass will get 80 strong h a 1t will
crowd out the dandelions.
when cut too often the roots OF the
blue grass are starved and lose their
vitality because they do not receive the
plant food which Is manufactured by
the leaves. The only way to strengthen
the roots is to leave the tops alone.
However. public opinion is so strong
that this advice probably will not be
followed. This is stated as a demon
strated fact and one may do As he likes
in this matter.
