improvements but the owners, real

Mitchell, April 17.-That the rural
communities of Dawson county do
not take kindly to the daylight saw
ing proposition and that approx
mately one-fourth OF the rural
schools of the county are being run
under the old-time schedule is shown
by the results of a QUESTIONABLE
which was recently sent to all the
rural school teachers of the county.
Fifty-five out of the sixty-five
teachers in the rural schools have re-
ported, and of these fourteen stated
that their schools were being run
under the old schedule.
The QUESTIONABLE also called for
information as to when the rural
schools will close, and it was found
that some of them are to be closed
as early as April IT. Several are to
close on April 25, while a few are
to remain open until the early part
of June.

Total Spring and Winter Wheat
Crop May Reach 1,10O,-
100000 Bushels.
GREATEST ON REC ORD
Agricultural Department Figure 9 Indi
cate That American Farm ers
Will Receive Upwards Of
So, 500, 900 900.

Washington, April 16.-The total
spring and winter wheat crop grown by
the American farmer this year prom
Uses to be the greatest produced by
any nation in the world history, Agri-
cultural department figures showed.
With the estimated winter Yield Of
S37, 900, 900 bushels, announced a. week
ago., department estimates ON the
spring wheat crop bring the total for
all wheat up to LOO, 900, 900 bushels
this year, and it may run beyond this
figure.
The only crops V approximating
this were the 1913 winter yield in Rus
STA of S38, 600, 600 bushels and a single
billion bushel yield in the United
States.
The promised 1919 yield, with the
guaranteed price of 1926 per bushel
fixed by the government, means a re-
turn of approximately $4,000, 900, 900 to
the farmers. Should the price of wheat
drop, it is pointed out, the COVER nment
would have a big sum to make up.
Little chance, however, Is seen for
such a drop this year. Russian pro-
duction, which in years past has been
about the same as the United States,
does not now figure in the world mar.
ket. Hence the worlds supply still
will be far short of needs until Russia
esumes its former place as a wheat
producing nation.
Another factor which officials here
say will tend to prevent a drop in
wheat quotations is the cheapening of
money in every part of the world. The
American dollar, for example, is worth
only half as much as It was in 1918,
according to government statistics and
the pound, franc and lire have dropped
as much or more in value.
Therefore officials are confident the
government will not be obliged to buy
millions of bushels Of wheat at a loss

BARGAIN LOAN
MUCH ENTHUSIASM OVER THE
LOAN DRIVE NEXT
WEEK.

Aberdeen, Apr;i II. - Special:
eve were greatly surprised in Min
neapolis last Sunday when we re-
ceived a wire from the secretary of
the treasury announcing the amount
of the loan, giving terms, maturity
and other conditions, particularly SO
as to the amount, as we had been
led TO believe it would be at least &
six billion dollar issue"
The above statement was made by
b. c. Bassett, state chairman of the
South Dakota liberty loan commit
he felt sure South Dakota would be
the first state lover the top" and
that every county in the entire state
is well organized and ready for the
drive to start. Mr.. Bassett further
stated that the next liberty loan has
been called the victory loan and 9TH
ers have called ii the Thanksgiving
loan.
ut certainly is both of these" he
said, but to my mind it is really
the bargain loan when one takes
into account the attractive rate of
interest hat is offered and looks
back to November IL. 1918, and con
siders the events which transpired
shortly before that time which re-
suited in the boche laying down his
arms and appealing for an armi-
stice, and then to think what would
have happened If the armistice had
not been signed on November IL.
AS it is we only have $4,000 men
who will forever remain in France.
whereas had the war continued for a
few months longer and the attack
on Metz had been carried out as
planned at least $4,000 mOr men
would have found their last resting
place in the b~lood-sOaked ground OF
France. | think one IA truly call
this the bargain loan.
I'VE have received some wonder,
full letters and kilograms from the
county chairmen all over the state
expressing surprise at the smallnesS
of their allotment and showing en-
thusiastic determination to put the
next loan over the top in a very
short time. The world owes much
to the county chairmen of the liber'
ty loan organizations and the mel
who have worked on their commit
tees. This applies not only to South
Dakota but to every state in tn
union, because it is a splendid worl
which these men have done day IL
and day out. Some of them have
worked sixteen and twenty hours
day at times in order to put theiI
county over the top l feel as if !
were impossible for me to say toe
much in praise of the county organ
izations in this state for what the,
have done, and looking forward int
the future with the past as m,
criterion / see the word success q.
