met the allotments made to the state,
even though they were greater on a
population basis than those asked
from any other state in the north
west, the deposits in the banks of
the state show an increase of $21,-
000,0 600 for the year, and stand at
$131, 100000 at the date of the last
call. The increase from the previous
call was over $1,000 600, and the in
crease of resources RAJ over $10,-
100000. South Dakota people have
not only met more than their share
of the demand for soldiers and sail
ors for carrying on the war, but have
been ready with more than their
share of the cash, and are piling up
their surplus at the same time.

TOWN HARD HIT
100 CASES OF INFLUENZA
PREVAILS AT CANISTOTA.

Sioux Falls, Oct. ga serious
state of affairs exists at Canistota,
about 35 miles west of Sioux Falls,
according to a message received by
A. r.. Fallows, of the state council of
defense.
DR.. j. c. Clark, who was indicted
into the state volunteer federal re
serve corps, was sent to Canitsota to
take charge. He reported that there
are from 100 to $50 cases of Spanish
influenza there and that immediate
assistance is necessary.
The public school building is now
being used as a hospital and on ad-
vice of DR.. Clark SO cots and mat
tresses and other bed clothing have
been forwarded. This morning the
temporary hospital was in readiness
to receive patients.
Mrs. Bertha Enebea, Of this city,
has volunteered her services as a
nurse and left for Canistota to assist
DIR. Clark. According to the report
reaching Sioux Falls, two deaths oc-
Cured yesterday and in a number of
other. cases recovery is extremely
doubtful. The work of caring for
the influenza sufferers at Canistota
will be under the direction of the
state board of health.
Two deaths were reported yester-
day among the S. A. T. C. students
at the State college at Brookings.

YOUTHFUL Thieves
A BAND OF BAD BOYS CAUGHT
AT TRENT.

Flandreap, Oct. ga gang of
petty thieves, all sons of well to do
residents of Trent, a neighboring viii
lage, was broken up when their lead
er pleaded guilty and was given a
suspended sentence of one year in
the state penitentiary. The young
sters have been in the habit for the
last year of helping themselves to
whatever they liked in the local
stores, cigars, tobacco, candy and
jackknives being some of the articles
they seemed to prefer.
Their system was TO loiter about
the store, slip down into the base
ment u~nobserved, hide under a large
crock or a box or barrel until the
store was closed for the night. Then
they woulti help themselves to what
ever they liked and get oet of the
store during the night.
Besides the leader, who received a
court sentence, the other and young
er members of the gang were brought
before the county court and lectured
by Judge Krause, and pledges exact
ed from them and their parents
which will stop the petty pilfering.

MILK FAMINE

HARD ON INFANTS AND
YOUNG CHILDREN.

Aberdeen, Oct. 26.-The milk
acute. With the grownups it is an
inconvenience, but to those with in
fants and young children it bids fair
to work a hardship. There was
much hustling around among the
housewives to get under cover, and
most households got along with a re-
duced supply, and not an actual lack.
Wholesale prices On milk used to
be 6 cents a quart, but recently the
milk route owners were notified by
the wholesalers that this quotation
was changed to 8 cents wholesale.
Milk had been selling at IL cents
a quart under the Scent price and
some owners of milk routes split the
raise with their customers, raising
from IL cents to IA cents a quart re-
tail and absorbing l cent a quart of
the raise themselves. Others quit
delivery, not caring to pay the in
creased wholesale price.

Save THE GRAIN
LAST STRAW Is CAREFULLY
GATHERED In In FRANCE
BY OLD WOMEN.

Sioux Falls, Oct. 26.-French
thrift is complimented in a letter re-
ceived by the home folks from Chas.
Slattery, a South Dakota boy, who is
serving with the American expedi-
tionary forces in France, where he
has been many months. He writes
in part as follows:
Nearly everybody around here
has their grain cut and put away
now, and every day we see people,
mostly old women, out in the fields
picking up straws and heads of grain
that happened to fall from the wag-
on or was missed in cutting 1t
seems impossible that there would be
any left after the farmers get
through with it, the way they rake
it up with hanu rakes; but the peas
ants manage to get a few straws here
and there; and, believe me, they
don't leave any.
I'm bet they would like to be
turned loose in a field back home
for a few days. They would soon be
rich instead of poor. I feel sorry for
some of those poor old women; some
of them must be past 20 and stopped
over so bad that you would not think
they could get around alone, but they
are not ~contented unless they are out
digging around some place"
