coDINGToN WILL VOTE ON ROADS

1t is probable that Codington county
will be the first in South Dakota to
definitely arrange for the construction
of county system of paved highways,
and thus lead the way for other coun-
ties of the state which for some time
have been agitating the construction
of such highways.
The voters of Minnehaha county,
which was the first to vote on the
question Of issuing bonds Of $4,000 900
for the construction of paved high
ways throughout the county, defeat
ed the proposition som" weeks ago,
ton county failed to give their approx
al to a proposed bond issue of $3,250,-
900 for the construction of a system
of paved and graveled highways
throughout Yankton county.
movement now has been inaugu-
rated in Codington county for the
calling Of a special election to sub
nit the question of issuing bonds for
installing a modern system of paved
country highways In both Mime
haha and Yankton counties it was the
vote of the farmers that defeated the
proposed bond issues.
The good roads boosters of Coding-
ton county held an informal meeting,
at which representative farmers of
the county were present.
If the expressions of these farmers
are to be accepted as reflection of
sentiment among the farmers Of the
county, generally, hard surface high
ways will have the endorsement of
every part of Codington county at a
special election which it is planned
will be held throughout the county in
the spring to vote on the issuance of
bonds for a system of county high
ways.
1t Is planned to construct a total
Of 96 miles of paved roads in the
county. The exact amount to be voted
on has not yet been determined.

Of 55 bushels per acre of the CONNER
cial potato crop was a little too low.

yield to be about 55A bushels per
acre.
We also find that 3.8% Of the total
commercial potato crop has been lost

age Is always heavy. Freezing did
not do a great leal of damage because
of the care exercised by growers.
According ta this survey, the per-
cent still in growers hands is about
5000 of the total production.
In the heavy producing states of
Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota,
the production promises to be 56,465
cars, compared with $3.50 cars last
year, or S9% of last years crop. OF
these 56,465 cars it was estimated that
1870 or 1909 cars were still in the

FAR FROM HOME

Persons arriving in Philip report hav-
ing seen a herd of IS deer roaming
over the prairie six or eight miles from
town, they evidently spending the
nights among the timber and under
brush along the streams. 1t is thought
these are the same deer that were
seen few weeks ago in the vicinity
of Wasta and that since that time
they have made their way this far
eastward. The deer are supposed to
be from the Black Hills. the theory
being that they were driven from their
native haunts by the severe storms
which have swept over the Black Hills
during recent weeks.

SPECIAL POTATO CROP REPORT

The following comments on the late
or winter potato crop OF the United
States are based on conditions the first
part Of December This report deals
with that portion OF the crop loaded
in cars, or the surplus or highly COM
mercial crop.
In South Dakota, weather condi-
tons proved favorable for harvesting
the potato crop In September and the
early part of October. The market
for the crop seems to have been SO
high, that more intensive effort was
put forth to get the tubers harvested
early, which was very fortunate for,
since the middle of October, winter
conditions have prevailed and the
state has but very little suitable stor-

Everything, including two immense

ment lacking for TO bring about

Dr. Downes' anxiety concerning

when the Shimmell building was
turned over to the public like ten
other buildings, and an organization
identified as "Parent-Teachers" took
hold. They worked we'll one winter
but speedily dwindled down in at
tendance until only a bare half doz-

ganization availed nothing and the
project was an utter failure.

things out, with limited financial ex-
penditure is the wise way. and so

isters have issued proclamation TO
the German people. according to a
wireless message from Berlin, an
nouncing the conclusion of peace
and urging as the first pressing need
the bending of all efforts to its full
filment.
LAS far as 1t is possible to carry
1t out" says the proclamation, the
treaty must be carried out"
It declares faithful loyalty to those
threatened with separation from the
empire and promises to intercede IN
their behalf, "as we would intercede
for ourselves" 1t concludes by ex-
horting the people to realize the
need of work and faithfulness to
duty for the redemption of the
country.
Speaking in the House of Com
mons on the subject of reparation
for the sinking of the German war
ships. Walter Hume Long, first lord
of the admiralty, explained it was
impossible for the admiralty TO take
precautions to prevent the sinking,
because the ships were interned. not
surrendered. Therefore the admir-
atty had no power to place guards
on them.
The first lord denied that the ad-
miralty had recommended intern
ment, emphasizing the point that the
decision of the Allied heads for in
ternment controlled the situation
and made prevention of the scuttling
utterly impossible.
