THE TOWN HOG NUISANCE.

Last Thursday, someone, whose pa
tience no doubt had been tried to the
breaking point, MANNED on of the
hogs that has been wont to roam at
large all over town, Tt was nice big
SOW, and she received cut from some
sharp instrument in b 4r right thigh
some eight or ten inches long and
perhaps an inch or an inch and a~half
deep We pitied the poor hog, for it
was not to blame, but its owner should
have kept it penned up, as all hogs
should be whether on the farm or in
town, bit especially so in town. With
some ten or twenty hogs roaming the
streets of Wood all Gay long, it Ger
tainly does not leave very good i'm
preston on strangers who happen to
visit our town or who may be passing
through, and it is certainly an aggre
vation for the people who live here to
BE- continually annoyed and torment
ei by this stock running at large and
roofing up yards, destroying gardens,
etc. If the people. who own these
hogs, must continue j., the hog; ousi
ness in town, thew shouldn't least re
member. that other people living in
town, also have some rights. They
should properly pen up their stock
or else move out in the country and
then get section or two of land and
put their domicile in the center and
let the hogs run all over them, if the,
really enjoy such ervoirments. We
regret that we are called upon to CON
ment upon this hog nuisance almos
every spring, but the town is not il
corporated, We have no scity law o
town marshel to enforce common de
cency aud justice among our people
aud We have no way OF compelling
the owners of this stock to take car,
! of their property or else dispose of il
The owners OF this stock should req
ize that there are other people wh,
live here who are trying to bril'
homes, and who do not relish or enjo
this continual annoyance of hogs dr,
other stock running at large owe
their premises. Lets pen up ne hog
and give the common human being
q chance to build bigger and bette

Postmaster Sawyer on Thursday OF
last week received a new advertise
ment asking for bis for carrying mail
on the new proposed route from Win.
ner to White River via Jordan, Carter,
O'Kreek and Wood. which was taken
to indicate that the bids submitted on
the former advertisement for this
route had been rejected. Wednesday
be received a message ordering him
to destroy this advertisement, as the
contract had been let to a bidder who
submitted bid under the former ad
vertisement, the new service to become
effective June !st. This pow makes
three times that ."four year" mail
contract(?) has been let within the
past year, for carrying mail between
here and Winner. and two such con
tracts( y have been let for the service
between here and White River. We
wonder how many -four year" con
tracts( y for this service, will be LET
by the department during the coming
twelve months? 1t takes some one d
whole lot smarter than a "Philade
phia lawyer" to even hazard guess
as to what the present Wilson admir
istra tion will or will not do. The
message did not state who the lucky(?
bidder was, but it is surm.sed tha
Bert Humphrey was awarded the cor
tract this time. B ,rt is good mai
carrier, and gave pretty general salts

fore.

CORN CLUB PERFECTS LOCAL
ORGANIZATION.

The Pioneer Acre Corn Growing
Club of Mellette county last week
perfected three local organizations in
this county, one at Cedarbutte, one at
White River and one at Wood. Each
local organization elected Vice-Pres
ident and Secretary. Sometime dur.
ing June or July these local organiza.
tions will elect a County President
and Secretary. P Scarbro, State
Leader Of Boys apd Girls Club Work,
accompanied by Arthur Miller, Farm
Account Specialist, both of the State
College, and County Agent Blakely
attended all of these meetings and
greatly assisted in perfecting these
local organizations, aud helped to get
the Club started off on the right foot
this year, and they are ready to lend
all assistance possibleto Club mem
bers. They report very we'll attended
meetings and much interest at all
points.
The White River Club was organ
lied Thursday evening of last week
Master William Jensen, President and
Nordine Kendall, Secretary.
The Cedarbutte Club was organiz
ed Friday evening with Master Clark
Peterson, Vice President, and Jack
Bass, Secretary
The Wood Club was organized Sat
urday afternoon and Master Jake
Krieger was elected Vice President,
and Rex Orr, Secretary.
All members in attendance at these
meetings were supplied with the De
cessary seed, and no doubt the entire
membership ha0 by this time planted
their acre of Rosebud King corn, and
those who accepted the seed for the
half acre of Rosebud No. II, in add
ton, have now probably all finished
their paintings.
We look for one of the largest and
best exhibits of corn -at-tha Mellet!t
County Fair here September 10, |!
and 20, ever shown in the Rosebud
country. 1t is planned to have some
corn experts from the State College
ptesent during the Fair to conduct {
class in corn Judging for the bench
of the Club membership.
And here is some more good news
for the Corn Club members. j. W
Beckwith of tie Community Store a
Cedarbutte has offered a cash prize o
SIS for the best ten ears of corn e!
Inhibited at the Fair by members of tb'
Corn Club, so the boy or girl winning
Itbe Trophy Cup this year will als'
win Mr.. Beckwiths prize of Sl5 il
leash. Mr.. Beckwith offers a secol {
prize OF SI6 In cash to the CeuarDutt
|CIub if they succeed in winning IT,
Trophy Cup at the Fair, and We hav
no reason to doubt but what the men
bers of the Cedarbutte local win pu
forth come strenuous efforts to cal

prizes offere1.

humber of other boys who would lik

Cars and Their Tires

The rise of the automobile stocks on
Saturday was logical response to the
official announcement of cut in tire
prices. The automobiles will get their
tires cheaper. If such tire reduction
means an ultimate reduction in auto
mobile prices to correspond, the motor
companies still advantage. Their mar
gin of profit remains as great, and
they will sell more cars, because a
lower price will bring cars within the
reach of more buyers. Prospective buy
ers will also consider lower tire prices
as reduction in probable cost of up
keep, and that, too, helps sales The
United States and Federal Tire COM
panies yesterday announced reduction
in tire prices averaging Is per cent,
effective at once.
