Of North and South Dakota, Mime
sofa, northern Nebraska, northwest
Iowa and eastern Montana and Wyo-
ming. Only about a dozen such shows
are held in the entire country, and
Aberdeen was chosen as the location
for this section of the northwest be-

| that it is the center of a great area
of land mostly level in character,
where the tractor is particularly
adaptable to farming purposes.

BETTER ROADS
APPOINTMENT OF COL. SHADE
A BOOST FOR HARD
SURFACING.

Mitchell, July 19.-Never has the
opportunity for hard surfaced roads
in this state looked so good as it does
now. And it is all due to Gov. Nor
beck's appointment of Lieut.. Col. M.
l.. Shade. of this city, as the third
member of the state highway COM
mission. Col. Shade for a year and
a half was associated with some of
the foremost road builders in Eu-
rope. He was n of the chief trans
port officers of the a. e. F. in
France and had charge of some of
the creates troad building projects
put through by the American engi-
neers. AS a result of his experience
abroad Col Shade has come home con
vinced that hard surfaced roads are
the only kind Of roads to build. He
has proposed that the state purchase
a complete road building plant and
build nothing but paved highways
II is pointed out that the state has
a greater road fund at it's command
this year than ever before and under
the direction of Col. Shade ii is be
lieved more progress will be mad,
in road building In the next twelv,
months than in any like period O

CROP REVIEW
CONDITION OF CROPS AS RE.
PORTED In SOUTH DAKOTA.

Sioux Falls, July 29.-Excessive
heat, excessive rains in some Sec
lions, and a rainfall below normal in
the greater part of the western half
of South Dakota, have conspired to
reduce materially the crop which
year. In the eastern and southeast
ern section, where there has been too
much rain, thousands of acres Of
crops on lowlands were flooded and
the yields reduced. With the excep-
tion of Trip and Gregory counties,
in the Rosebud section of that part
of the state lying west of the Mis-
souri, river, and Lyman, Stanley and
a few other favored districts in that
part of the state, crops have been
damaged by lack of rainfall.
The heads of wheat in many Sec
tions, which two or three weeks age
gave promise of being filled with
large and plump kernels, shrunk be-
cause Of the excessively hot weather
of the last part of June and tore par
of July and will not yield nearly sc

which now are being harvested, were
more fortunate. the yields of both be.

The harvesting of early sown wheat
commenced several days ago in the
eastern half of the state, and by mex,

PREVENT FIRE
STATE FIRE MARSHAL ISSUES
WARNING TO FARMERS TO
GUARD AGAINST WASTE.

Pierre, July 19.-Saving the big
crops of South Dakota from destruc-
ton by fire is equally as necessary as
harvesting them, according to w. N,
VanCamp, state fire marshal, who
issues a warning to farmers and 9TH
ers against this needless waste. He
says:
South Dakota is in the midst oil
harvesting an immense crop oil
wheat, oats, rye, barley and other
grains aggregating approximately
$4,000, 600 acres. Except In a few
places in the state, the crop will be
the biggest in the history of the state.
and doubtless the most important
problem after the labor problem, is
to safeguard this immense crop from
fire.
THE fire marshal department rec
ommends that the farmers set their
shocks back at least 200 feet from
the railroad tracks, and that a fire
guard be plowed between the shocks
and the railroad tracks. They also
recommend that but a limited mum.

demand for 1t to feed the starving
people of France, Belgium and other
European countries, not a dollar Of

through carelessness. Unless every.
thing Is done to protect the crop We
will have shirked a patriotic duty"

FIRST AID TENT.

The first aid tent at the chautau-
qua this year was a new thing for the
chautauQua.
The assembly at Lake Madison has
grown from a small county chautau-
qua to almost a statewide assembly.
Many years have gone by without
serious accidents. Hence some peo-
pie looked upon the tent as a need
less ornament. However, the stock
holders realized that some plan for
emergency work was needed. So
when the nurses of the county volun-
teered to give their time, the chau-
tauqua association and the Red Cross
furnished the tent and equipment,
together with any expense that might
be incurred.
The tent has proved a very pop
ular place and expressions of appre-
citation have been freely expressed by
people from all over the state. Every
day has brought some work. Many
minor dressings have been cared for
by the nurses. Sick and restless
children have been brought to the
tent many times. Tired mothers
have rested there. Also the nurses
have done many things that cannot
be written.
Every nurse in the county that
could possibly spare the time has
given some time to this work. TIC

With the good prices they will re-

than during any year of the past with
the exception of last year. Even with
the reduction in yields, the crop
