work and most of the important
details are omitted on account
of space. That the Farm Bureau
Association is becoming we'll or
ganized and lending its energy
to the development and improve
ment of Pine county's resources
is very evident by the fact that
calls for service in all parts of
the county are beyond the
ability of the present force to
properly handle them. The
united spirit of potato standard
ization and the eliminating of
mixed varieties: also for better
winter feed and care of livestock
are very encouraging indications
that the farmers of the county
are planning to develop and pro-
duce the kind of crops and stock
that will make the most money.

The Farm Bureau has published
since January. four issues of the
Farm Bureau News for the men,
bers of the Association. Sample
copies of two of these issues
were mailed to all farmers in the
county. The January issue was
on Farm Bureau organization
work: the February issue was
the annual report number:
March, the reconstruction and
livestock improvement issue;
April. the farm management and
potato number. In addition to
these, two special potato circu-
lars have been prepared for
Farm Bureau members and
special potato seed plot men CO.
operating with the Farm
Bureau. Two conferences with
the County Superintendent and
high school men were held in re-
gard to boys and girls club-work,
and several boys and girls club
meetings were attended by the
agent who has helped hem to To-
cate seed and breeding stock.
One Farmers Club was organized
in Royalton township, one west
of Finlayson and many others
were visited during the winter
and spring. Approximately one

Farm Bureau Work.

The second year of the County
Farm Bureau Association has
started out with very definite
plans for the main livestock and
potato problems. A large
amount of general work on mar
keting problems, community
work and boys and girls clubs
take considerable time but the
winter feed and care of livestock
and the standardization and inn
provement of, our cash crop, po-
tatoes, and their market reputa-
ton are the two big features in
the years program.
Livestock.
The following sketch of the
agents activities in the past few
months may be of interest as a
quarterly report. On the live
stock problems most attention
has been given to planning the
farm crops so as to furnish bet
ter feed next winter. At Brook
Park and many other places, the
farmers came together to study
the value of different feed CON-
binations and the kind of rations
they should grow to make the

cows produce all they can. In
all. nine meetings of this kind
have been held with a total at
tendance of 1874.
AT Bruno several meetings
were held and finally a bull as
ISOLATION was organized which
purchased three registered Hol-
stein bulls, 'and placed one in
each of three communities. An
other bull is to be shipped to
Sturgeon Lake in a very few
days.
Potatoes.
Fifteen potato meetings have
been held this winter and spring
with total attendance of 800.
The topic at every meeting has
been the elimination of mixed
varieties and the control of dis
eases in order to build up bet
ter market reputation on the
basis of better yields and quality.
Il men are actually pre-
pairing the seed for potato seed
plots. Brook Park has shipped
in around 400 bushels of better
seed stock as result of potato
work in that community. A
large amount of seed has been
transferred from one farm to an
other in the county through the
Farm Bureau office. The re-
quests for locating good seed
have exceeded the supply of the
right kind of stuff. Over two
carloads have been shipped in
from outside the county. Our

LAKE COUNTY
FAIR CONTINUES
PEOPLE ENJOY THE VAUDEVILLE
BALL GAMES AND
RACES

As planned and advertised, the
Lake county fair continued over to-
day, thus giving people from over
the county a chance to view the eX-
hibits and witness the races and ball
games and also to do regular Sat
urday's trading. No finer day could
have been selected. The attendance
this afternoon was considerably
greater than yesterday, although to-
day is the closing day.
The Nunda and Wentworth ball
teams played yesterday afternoon.
Although the game was interesting, 1t
lacked pep and did not have the speed
of the teams playing the day before.
Nunda came to bat first and before
the half inning had closed had one
score to her credit During the last
half of the first and on through the
second, third, fourth and fifth in
nings neither side scored. 1t was not
until the opening of the sixth inning
that tallies commenced to come.
Nunda made four to Wentworth s
three at that item and in the first
half of the seventh, Nunda received
one more, making total of six to
Wentworth's three. Neither side
scored during the remainder of the
game.
Today, Winfred, the victors over
Chester on Thursday, meets Nunda
the winners of yesterdays game. The
contest is for purse of 500 put uI
by the fair management. Bets are
going strong on Winfred, who surely
played classy ball on Thursday, al
though there are many who are back.
ing the Nunda players strong.
So far the people in attendance
seemed to have enjoyed all the oper
air acts of the Pearson Sisters, tht
Wahlunds, the Steiners and the Mon
chans, and especially the ball games
Had the fair been announced some
earlier this year and more decided
effort been made toward getting ex
hibits a much greater success woult

OVATION FOR WILSON
AT KANSAS CITY
PRESIDENT RECEIVES GREAT
WELCOME In HOME OF
SENATOR REED

Convention Hall, Kansas City, Mo-,
Sept. 6.-Entering real enemy terri
tory, the home of Senator Reed, one
of the most bitter opponents of the
league of nations, President Wilson
today received tremendous ovation
when he stepped on the platform here
to make his appeal. The uproad re-
called that at ST. Louis last night.
President Wilson took his seat inn
mediately and paid hardly any atten-
tion to the applause, merely family
smiling at a particularly loud out
burst. Practically every one of the
thousands i'm the hall waved small
flags.
Treaty opponents who view the
document with jaundiced eyes, who
are against it because they have some
private political purpose, will be al
last gibbeted correct and they will
regret that the gibbet is so high,
President Wilson said.
He reiterated that it was case oil
put up or shut up. That the oppo-
sition would have to produce some
thing better than the league of ma
tions or step aside.
Mere negation, correct without
offering anything constructive to re.
place the treaty, is bolshevism, he
asserted.
The presidents train left promptly
al noon for Des Moines.

Weather and Crops

Huron, Sept. 6.-The United States
weather bureau here has issued the
following summary of weather and
crop conditions in South Dakota for
the week ending September Q:
The temperature averaged some
what above normal in the western
part of the state and somewhat be-
low normal in the eastern part. Dur
ing the middle portion of the week
the nights were very cold. Light to
moderately heavy showers occurred
at scattred places. mostly in the east
ern part of the state, but over most
of the state rainless weather contin-
ued There wa sa deficiency of sun
shine in the western part of the state
but in the eastern part it was about
normal. In those localities where
sufficient rain fell the ground is in
good condition for blowing, but over
most of the state the ground is too
hard for this work which, together
with seeding. has been retarded. Also
it is too dry. for termination of grain.
Conditions were generally favorable
for threshing, and threshing from the
shock is now about completed. Corn
matured rapidly during the week and
a large part of the crop is now be-
yond danger of damage by frost. In
some localities the yield of this crop
promises to equal earlier expecta-

sale. The offer will remain in effect
until September 25. The meats in
storage include 1,250,000 pounds of

State Finances Are
In Good Condition

Pierre, Sept. 6.-The state of
South Dakota has no Indebtedness,
the treasurer's statement for the con-
dition of affairs at the close of the
fiscal year, June 30, 1919, showing
that fact, and that after all warrants
have been paid a total of s1S0,00O
in cash remains in the general fund.
This is the first time in the history
of the state when at the close of a
fiscal year there were no outstanding
warrants, and no revenue warrants
issued to meet the expenses of the
state. Expenses of the state, al
though far beyond those of several
years ago, because of agricultural,
educational, hail insurance and high
way needs, have been kept within the
revenues of the state, and have alst
made the remarkable record of do
ing away with the necessity of car
rying revenue warrants, as well as
having left a substantial amount oil
cash at the end of the year.
An examination of the receipts in
the annual treasury statement shows
that the state received $2,722,ISt
total revenues from all sources. Oi
tfms sum state taxes amounted t'
s2,450,883; revenue warrants fol
100000 have all been called; inter
est on daily balances in banks carry
ing state funds was $33,730; insur
ance tax receipts s227,050; inherit
ance taxes $110,98S.
AS to expenditures general funt
warrants weer paid amounting Il
$2,542,934; 100000 to call revenue
warrants issued earlier in the year
100000 to the highway revolvin;
fund; $4,000 to the state hail insur
ance fund, and $4,000 for agricul
tural interests in the county super
vision fund to counties doing tina
work. These were the larger item
of expenditures.

Number of Dairy Cows
Increasing in State

Brookings, Sept. 6.-The number
OF dairy cows in South Dakota has
increased more rapidly than the aver
age for the whole country, according
to new bulletin just published by
the state college dairy department.
The comparative increase for the
United States since 1900 has been
143 per cent, while that for South
Dakota is 205 per cent. The value
of South Dakota dairy products has
increased in 8 years from s8,185,89
to $23,454,S25. This bulletin de-
