SAYS COUNTY HAS
PLENTY OF SCHOOLS

Freeman, S. D., Feb. 14.-Statements
have been printed over the state criti-
,cizing Hutchinson county for the small
amount OF money spent by the county
for its public schools. Hutchinson
county has been somewhat in disfayor
with the remainder OF the people Of
the state since 81 farmers Of the cUun-.
.ty were charged with violating the
espionage act. These cases have since
been dismissed, Hutchinson county
has among its population numerous
German Russians. The Freeman paper
defends the county against the charge
that very little money Is spent for pub
lie schools. The paper states that this
is due to the fact that the county has
eight private educational institutions,
the Catholic school at Parkston alone
employing six teachers and having a
student enrolment Of more than 200.
A Catholic school at Dimock employs
four teachers and has 100 students.
The paper states that the eight private
educational institutions employ an ag-
gregate Of "a teachers and have an ag-
gregate enrolment OF 700 pupils. Most
of these schools, which are supported
by church members, operate nine
months each year. :

STORAGE CHARGES
 WILL BE ADDED
 ID WHEAT PRICE
By Associated Press

New York, June 13.-ro preserve natural flow of wheat from the farm, periodical premiums covering storage price nt various guarantee markets, according to an encouragement made tonight by Julius H. Barnes, United States wheat director.
 These premiums will not be intro duced during July, when basic prices prevailing for the last year will remain in effect. For each succeeding month, however. premiums will be announced 80 days in advance.
 MT. Barnes also announced railroad rates from inter mountain and Pacific coast territory to Galveston and New York soon will be reduced to 56 cents per hundred, the equivalent of 33.6c per bushel. This reduction, Mir. Barnes explained, is intended as a relief to the producers in those sections. as the grain corporation cannot pursue it's practice of making effective g blanket minimum price for all wheat at inter-mountain points. but will be obliged to confne itself to paying s2 at Pocatello, Great Falls and Salt Lake City, leaving the rest of the western territory to base on the commercial market most readily reached by it.
 To assure a larger flow of what to the gulf ports, MT. Barnes said he had decided to seek an executive order in- creasing the number one base price at Galveston and New Orleans from SIPS

A FAMILY
 MEDICINE
h Her Mothers Home, Says This Georgia Lady, Regarding Black Draught. Relief From Head
 ache, Malaria, Chills, Etc.

Ringgold, Ga Mrs. Chas. Gaston, of this place, writes: fI am a user of Thedford's Black-Draught; in fact, it was one of our family medicines. Also in my mothers home, when l was a child. When any of us child ren complained of headache, usually caused by constipation, she gave us a dose of B1ack-Draught, which would rectify the trouble. Often in the Spring, we would have malaria and chills, or troubles of this kind, we would take Black-Draught pretty reg ular until the liver acted well, and we would soon be up and around for it certainly has saved us lots Of doctor bills. Just a dose of Black Draught when not so well saves a lot of days in bed.'
 Thedford's Black-Draught has been In use for many years in the treat ment of stomach, liver and bowel troubles, and the popularity which it now enjoys is proof Of it's merit.
 If your liver is not doing it's duty, you will suffer from such disagree able symptoms as headache, bilious ness, constipation, indigestion, etc., and unless something is done, serious trouble may result.
 Thedford's Black-Draught has been found valuable remedy for these troubles. It is purely vegetable, and acts in a prompt and natural way, regulating the liver to its proper functions and cleansing the bowels of impurities. Try it. Insist on Thed- ford's' the original and genuine. B 79

i MEXICAN EMBASSY
 MAKES DENIAL


 The American Press published last Sunday a lengthy statement issued by the National Association for the Protection of American rights in Mex ico and sent broadcast through the Universal Service, in which Dr. Altendorf sets forth numerous chars es against the Mexican Government, accusing it of assisting German con srtra DOTS. Dr. AIendorf, states among other falsehoods. that Presi- dent Carranza appointed him Col onel in the Mexican Army; that on several occasions he served as inter- mediator between Prsident Carranza and German Minister Won Eckhardt; that he was sent to Sonora to com mand the proposed German-lIexica expedition into the United States, formed by 45.000 "Carrancista" sol diers; and that this expedition was frustrated owing to the termination of the European War.
 The Mexican Embassy at Washing ten is in receipt, of a telegram from President Carranza. denyine cate Eorically Altendorf's statement, and adding that said Altendorf is per son absolutely unknown to him. and that probably said individual is one of unbalanced mind.
