SEEDING PUSHED
MORE THAN HALF THE WHEAT
CROP IN THE GROUND.

Rapid City, May 1.-During the
last week seeding has been pushed
rapidly and probably over half the
seed wheat Is in the ground. Some
oats and barley have been sown in a
few localities of Pennington county.
The demand for speltz seed is strong.
Cattle on the whole have survived
the storms of last week and the
week before remarkably well. Prac-
tically nothing was lost where shell
ter of any kind could be had. In a
few places, such as ravines and val
leys, grass is providing a small
amount of feed. Many of the ranch
ers have brought through their hogs
in good shape and a good crop oil
young pigs has resulted.
The moist condition of the ground
is especially favorable and alfalfa
has an excellent start i'm most sec
tions OF the county.

MANY WOUNDS


Volga, May Carl Lystad, broth
er Of Mrs. Severt Amundson, of Vol
ga, was wounded in the battle OF
IChateau-Thierry. While making an
advance he was struck by three ma
chine gun bullets. Two hit him in
the left arm and the third struck
him in the head, f%racturing the skull.
He became unconscious socn after
being wounded, but after a time he
Iregained consciousness and walked
through the lines to the rear. After
being operated on he was uncon-
scious for three days and little hope
was entertained for his recovery.
However, he put up a hard fight for
life and soon commenced to improve,
and in November he was transferred
to a base hospital in this country.
The fracture in the skull has healed
He still carries part of a bullet in
his left arm.

BAD BUSINESS

The discussion that has been 60
ing on very hotly for some weeks
about the location by the national
government of home for lepers al
ways has been unwise and has lately
become acrimonious, our senators and
representatives, governor and MEM
bers of the state board of health all
getting into it.
Our representatives at Washington
have been very sensible about the
matter. Assuming from what they
heard that the people of the state
were opposed to it. they protested to
the national health officers and were
assured the colony should not be
founded in Florida. That was all
that was necessary to do. Either of
our senator's or any one of our con-
grcssmen has more influence with the
national government, than the state
board of health or the governor, es-
pecially the present governor. When
it was announced that our senators
and representatives had obtained a
promise that the colony should not be
settled in Florida, matters quoted
down for few days and then broke
out with greater acrimony than ever
We do not know why it broke out
unless it was owing to the we'll
known disposition of our governor to
set up a man of straw in order that
he may, he thinks, gain some votes
by knocking said man of straw down
ard kicking him around and tearing
the straw out of him. There was q
special dispatch in the Times-U Union
the other day. saying Surgeon Gener-
al Blue was determined to establish
the colony anyhow. but as nothing
has been heard from our senators
and Representatives about the matter
we doubt that there is anything to it
In the meantime sensible people
have been talking to the doctors and
the idea is beginning to permeate
Florida that leper colony would be
a good thing rather than bad one

ARGUMENT ON
THE BOND ELECTION

The time to the bond election Is
short, and the arguments on bJth
sides may have TO be cut shorter than
is agreeable to those who wish TO ex-
press themselves.
We wish to give the people as much
room as possible for their opinion, but
our space like the time is limited.
All communications on the subject
must be short and legibly written. We
will not print long communications
and we will not print those that we
have to study out and practically re-
write And we will not print any
thing abusive or charging corrupt
motives. Bonds is an economic ques,
ton and must be discussed imper-
sOnally.
The Star favors bonds. 1t doesn't
see how the county can get along
without the roads. But it will give
everybody's opinion respectful hear

1t isn't every woman who knows
enough to know that her appearance
can either be made or married by her
selection of hat. but it is true. A
woman is not to blame for the color
of her hair. but she is to blame for the
color and style of her hat. A becom-
ing hat should seem to belong to the
face as much as the teeth or eyes be-
long to it. In trying to get hat. be
sure to select one that harmonizes
with your nose, brings out your COM
pleXion and make it even set off OF
deepen the color of your eyes. A hat
more than any other part of a wom-
ans costume should not be selected
for its richness of ornaments, but fol
its innate fitness to the wearer',
personality. But some women cry
out in alarm. "They are the fashion,
and so they may be, but who made
them the fashion? You, and you, and
