10 YEARS OF SERVICE

TO SAVE, TO SERVE WITH OUT, DISCRIMIN ATION - THAT WAS THE CORNERSTONE OF THIS ORGANIZATION TEN YEARS AGO. THIS IS THE DYNAMICFORCE OF THIS STORE TODAY.
 Ten years ago, Edward A. Slattery, the founder of this business, originat- ed and organized the first Speciality Store dealing exclu sively in Silks and Woolen Goods by the yard in Connecti- cut.
 He had an idea, the things he originated developed and fostered are today the backbone of this growing business.
 He was the first merchant to sell at one fair price. to all, with discounts to none
 To celebrate these ten years of service we have cu1minated the work of months of planning and building in a stupendous effort to demonstrate the influence of an idea and the power of cash buying direct from the mills

our shoulders are not broad or strong
enough to bear, like Atlas, the weight
of the whole world. Especially is the
summer season one that should invite
US to repose, joyousness and happi-
ness IL we will but enjoy it's lavish
beauty and fullness of content. We
should try to forget for few weeks
at least, for few months If possible,
the storm and stress and welter of
the world.
The summer is natures season OF
fruition, of fecuperation, of enjoyment.
Don't waste in fretting and repining,
but drink in its inspiration as your
lungs inhale the invigorating breeze
that comes over 5000 miles of ocean
The world probably will not run off
the track while you are doing this, and
when you come back to your usual
work you will be all the better able
to help steady it in ITS course.

KILL YOUR ANTS

State College entomologists recon-
mend the following to rid the house
of ants: Dissolve 8 grams of sodium
arsenite in a little water and add il
to sweetened syrup of pounds OF
sugar dissolved in "a of a pint of wat
er. The solution should be placed
about in small dishes, or a sponge
saturated with it should be placed in
jars provided with perforated covers
This is a slow-acting poison which en-
ables the ants to carry it away to theil
nests. The poison is then fed to the
young ants and queen and thus the
whole colony is destroyed. If sodium
arsenite cannot be obtained use white
arsenic instead. Smaller quantities
should be made in the proportion Civ
en- above.

THE NATIONAL CAPITAL
(By ]. f. Jones)

Congress has tackled some OF the
hig problems of Legislation with
determination that promises results
and il is to be hoped trct the har-
vests of the present legislative ses-
sion will measure up to the crop esti-
mates.
The Senate has spent a good deal
of time debating the League OF Ma
tions and the Peace Treaty, the net
results of which indicate that the sup
porters of the president are backing
definite, concrete policy, while the
opposition sort O. paved the air. Day
light saving has occupied good deal
of time in the forefront as legls-
lative problem, and members OF both
branches of Congress busted them
selves cutting the hands on the CLOCK
in their vain endeavors 10 make 1t
matter of tremendous Importance
whether "lungs begin to crow ike
chanticleer" an hour carrier or An
hour later each day. The program OF
the Secretary of the Intetor to fur
nisb lands to soldiers has insistent
supporters in Congress, bit someno"
or other there is lack of enthu-
sfasm that does not spell fppefulness.
When everybody pulls together
things move in Washingtn. There
is fresh evidence of this n the fact
that after several years the Senate
has decided to ratify the reaty with
Colombia, and to give thk country
something like $25,000,0 900 for putting
them on the map, by reasoi of having
brushed them aside in or6r that the

Total value of farm

Total value of farm
products ............ 1924, ,269 500
The last census, taken in 1915, gives
South Dakota a population of 5S2,765.
Figuring on an increase of 10000 per
year for the past four years, we
would have a population of 622,765.
Using this for a basis, new farm
wealth produced in 1918 would amount
to $1,002.42 for each man, woman and
child in the state. 1t may be ques-
toned whether any other state has
ever made such a record.
The last assessment of property in
the state was $1,59S,544,562, which
amount. if equally divided among our
population, would make $2,563.62 for
each man, woman and child, or $12,-
$3.50 for the average family of five
through the state. And this is prop
erty actually assessed for taxation.
