Douglas and he knows it thoroly, but with all he is quiet and unassumins. But let student ask a question and he gives the proper answer in an in stant.
 Raw Material But Pliable.
 Few of these boys had any me chanical knowledge of blacksmithing," says Douglas. One had been a prac- tical blacksmith for 15 years but his technical knowledge was very limit ed. Despite that they are keeping up with the the requirements of , the course Each days work is spec flied, and the fact that they are not i falling behind answers the question ! of whether they are capable of learn i ing. When the course is completed they will be good blacksmiths, cap 1 able of doing nearly any work neces- sary in the army"
 ! They ill get practical experience | by making repairs on autos, wagons and the army trucks at the school | TWenty-tWo men are in the carpen- try class under the instruction of T. w. Cosgs, a regular member of
 the faculty of the Branch Normal. ! They already have built big shed, latrine, sanitary bread boxes, etc, and they will get more practical eX

MILWAUKEE SALOONS CLOSE.

Milwaukee, June 29.-More than one hundred and fifty saloons in Milwau- kee are to close their doors perma- nently at the end of the license year tonight, according to report made by the license committee of the com mon council. Poor business, the high price of beer, and the likelihood that prohibition will win out within con- paratively short time, thus making sa- loon-keeping hazardous as business venture, are given as the reasons for the voluntary retirement of the re- tailers.

TO EMPLOY coNvIcTS
ON COUNTY ROADS

Pierre, S. d., May S.-Gov. Peter
Norbeck has found a way for the en-
ployment of convicts on at least a por-
ton of the highways OF the state.
while the matter of such employment
mas been more or less discussed for
several years. the one main obstacles
in the way has been the refusal of
county authorities to be responsible for
prisoners to be used in such work. But
II Is now proposed to make use of men
from the penitentiary in highway work
IN the state reserve in the Black Hills.
Since this tract Of about 81, 600 eel es
has been taken yer by the state .he
local authorities of Custer county have
laid down on any road work within
It's borders, on the plea THAI the state
pays no taxes, and they do not care to
use the taxes Of the county to build
highways on state lands.
This spring a landscape expert was
taken over the tract, and the first pre-
Emlnar1es toward a comprehensive
system Of railways in the park was
agreed upon The plan now is that as
soon as the rush Of work in. Irvine max
IN gis over for the spring several crews
or men from h penitentiary will be
taken to the state park, which tract
Is under supervision Of the state game
department, and these men be put to
work at h first moves in the road
system to be installed in the park.

SCHOOL LANDS SELL
FOR HIGHER PRICES

Pierre, S. d., May 8.-The land COM
missioner reports that this years sale
or school and public lands brought the
highest average price ever received for
the public lands, with a possible excep-
ton OF 1915. but in that year the lands
were specially picked for sale, SO that
the comparison is not exactly fair, and
therefore this years sales show the
very best average. The average price
for this year paid east of the Missouri
was S56.45, and in 1915 it was s58.35,
for the picked lands. The whole state
average this year amounted to $56.35
per acre. These prices are q great
contrast to the $40 per acre for which
many acres were sold in early days
the same lands now being worth 500.
The average prices per acre paid in
the past seven years was as follows:
1912, $47.23; 1913, $48.98; 1914. S25.55:
1915, $685.; 1916, SAM; 1917, $41.45;
1918, 1884.
This IA Beadle county sold the
largest acreage IL, ~ 40 and the high
est price paid in any county was in
Miner at $S7.42. The total sales this
year amounted to 72,071.32 acres,
bringing in $3,576,949.51. This brings
the total land sales for years past in
Guiding this year now up to $17,576,-
1892.
Fol the first time lands were this
year offered for sale in the newer
western counties of the state, and
brought an average of SIS in Meade
county and SIT in Butte.
