COMPLIMENTARY TO
MR.. MILLSTEAD

1t is Just as natural for some
editors to quarrel over ball game
as it is for others to sin. For
several weeks the Kadoka Press
and the Belvidere Times have been
calling each other names over the
back fence and threatening to
throw the rolling-pin, all about a
ball game. Now the Interior In
dex develops a bad case of the
same thing, evidently caught from
it's neighbor. Our friend Mill
stead, umpire at the Interior
Philip game on Sunday, September
1a is the offender and the Index
gives him complimentary mention
in the following fashion:
.The contest was an interesting
one, and we much regret that it
had to be spoiled by the poor UNI
piring of Millstead of Philip.
"All we have to say about this
deal is simply this: IF Millstead
believes in his own mind that he
gave us a square deal, all well and
good; but we think he has played
enough ball to know where the foul
line is.
.The games between Philip and
Interior now sand 3 to 3. The rub
is to be played at Philip next Sun
day, the 26th.
LES all go to Philip next Sun

PREVENT PRAIRIE FIRES THIS
YEAR.

This matter of fire prevention
is not for the consideration of our
towns and cities alone. Here in
Haakon county prairie fires are
menace as dangerous as anything
in the way of fire can be There
ar plenty of goode reasons why
the farmer, while the Philip folks
are observing fire prevention day
on October 9th, should inspect his
own premises and stacks, plow fire
gaurds. and take other measures
to prevent loss by fire.
The annual season of the prai-
rie fire menace is already at hand
and it behooves every citizen of
the west river country to be on
their guard against this agency
of destruction. Already several
prairie fires have been reported to
this office from the surrounding
country. One cannot exercise too
much precaution this fall, since
the grass crop is so abundant al
fire strated will be a very difficult
thing to handle let alone the thou
sands Of dollars worth of hay that
will be destroyed. The prairie grass
is beginning TO get dry and easily
subject to the least favorable OPP
portunity to burn. Every farmer,
rancher and town citizen should
be on constant guard against the
careless use of matches, cigars or
cigarettes that this country may
be spared the usual heavy loss by
fire.

SHALL RUSTED WHEAT
BE PLANTED

This is the first year Haakon
county has ever suffered from rust
and although the damage has been
small compared with the older
counties east of the river, it has
still been considerable, and awak-
ems concern as to whether 1t may
spread next year. Several farmers
in the Milesville country have
written in to the Pioneer-Review
asking whether seed of grain that
was afflicted by rust this year
should be planted for next years
crop, and we have procured the
advice of the experts at the State
College, and give it to our read
ers:
Many inquiries along this line
are being received by State Col
lege agronomists.
If the grain is badly shriveled
it is not generally advisable to
use it for seed, suggests DIR. Ar
thur T. Evans, associate professor
of agronomy. The reason for this
lies in the fact that it will gener-
ally be found producing some
what weaker Seeding.
Oftentimes pustules of rust will
be found on the grains. This is
always the red rust. AS these
rust spores, or summer spores, do
not generally live over winter in
this region, there is no danger
that the field will be infected
with rust from this source the
following season.
If the wheat which is rusted
terminates well, it may be plant
ed with reasonable assurance of a
good crop the following season.

CORN PALACE ON THIS WEEK

A goodly number of Haakon
county people have gone to Mitch
ell this week to attend the annual
earn palace there. This year that
big show is said to be bigger and
better than ever. 1t has outgrown
the old corn palace and fills sever
al blocks of adjacent streets, where
mammoth tents are pitched. In
fact the machinery exhibit is said
to occupy more space this year
than the whole palace in former
years.

FIRE PREVENTION DAY IN
PHILIP.

On October 9th, Philip along
with other enterprising towns of
the state will observe Fire Pre-
vention Day. The Governor has
by formal proclamation set aside
that day for the observance "sug-
gesting and urging that on that
day every home and business house
in South Dakota be carefully in
spected for fire hazard, that pre-
misses be cleaned, and that provis-
ion be made for all possible fire
protection"
That means Philip, and we trust
that every care will be taken to
observe the day. The Pioneer-Re-
view means to inspect and clean
up its premises as an example to
its neighbors.
In the course of his proclamation
Governor Norbeck says:
1T is an astounding fact that
the fire losses in the United States
and Canada thus far reported for
the present year are more than
s40,000,000 over and above losses
for he same period last year. Can
it be possible we are growing even
more careless concerning our
frightful fire waste?
'Tn~these days of high cost when
every effort should be made to-
wards rigid economy, when every
resource should be most carefully
husbanded, when production is so
in need of encouragement, surely
our people cannot afford to over
look the cnstant terrible loss of
life and destruction of property
due to fire. Over $1,000 human be-
ings were burned to death and
more than 1900 were injured by
fire during the year 1919.
1t is estimated that rs percent
of these fires are due to prevent
able causes. All we need is a pro-
per caution, cooperation and indi-
vidual diligence"

no weight on his hardened heart.
We have heard that he stole a
newspaperman's watch once and
hooked it to pay the expense of
the Philip team. Our advice to

SUCH IS LIFE

The man who paws trifiing tax
ISL always out with battling ak
condemning this, denouncing that,
and talking wildly through his
hat. The man who doesn't pay his
debts, whose creditors in sorrow
sweats, is finding signs of graft
in public men on every side. The
man who lets his weary wife do
washing to sustain his life is al
ways active with his jaws, discus
sing all the needed laws. The man
who has no traps to guard has fif-
teen watch dogs in his yard which
howl all night till his neighbor
weeps and calls for poison in his
sleep. The man who fails in all his
life, who on some high office has
eyes, Oh, he could guide the ship
of state altho he could not pay
the freight. The man who has a
private jug too often roasts the
thirsty plug who boldly seeks the
shining bar where jolly kinds of
bitters are. The man who plays a
quiet game in some resort un-
known to fame is angry when he
hears Of chaps who waste their
substance playing craps, and some
who preach the love of man, the

round divers creeds and gods are

Kirk is a northern way OF saying

There are good many places in Scot
land that begin with the syllable kirk,
places that are obviously named after
the church they contained. and there
are several well-knOwn last names
that take their origin from these
