SUNDAY BASEBALL
HAS COME BACK

Ten days ago it appeared that
the attorney general and the su-
preme court had given Sunday
baseball a knockout blow. The
test case carried up from Huron
resulted in decision to the effect
that baseball could not be played
on Sunday in South Dakota if an
admission charge was made. In
asmuch as gate RECEIPTS are nee
essary to keep Sunday baseball
going, this seemed. to leave things
in rather bad way.
But the baseball fans hired a
score of attorneys, and among
them scheme has been devised
to beat the Sunday baseball devil
around the stump. Tickets are
sold at the gate bearing the words
This is not an admission ticket.
For Grandstand seat or Parking
Space only" Anyone desiring to
witness the game and willing to
forego the added pleasures of a
grandstand seat or parking space
for car, is admitted free.
The scheme was tried out gen
orally week ago last Sunday

Rev. Father Reid. Then the school
children carried out their part of
the program by a reverent placing
of flowers upon the graves of the
dead.
The exercises at the cemetery
were characterized by a fitting
simplicity, If we are only able to
carry out future exercises at the
cemetery with like reverence and
decorum we vii be indeed fortu-
nate. 3
In the afternoon the more for
NAL exercises were, held at Pohle's
Hall, and they too were all most
fitting and appropriate. The band
played patriotic airs, and Mrs.
WalpoIe sang in her usual pleas
ing, manner! Bishop. Lawler of

friends here in his address puts

the matter too mildly. It was
stirring address,, reminiscent of
the achievements Of our heroic
dead. protraying our country's
greatness and the worth of its
institutions, call to higher citi-
zenship and to a deeper consentra-
tion and devotion to our national
ideals. The address could not have
been better.
Major Linstad saw real warfare
in France, was wounded twice,
but has all the modesty of the
true soldier. In fact his modesty
is almost painful. Not once did
there fall from his lips the least
intimation that he had been with
in thousand miles of the battle
front. Everyone who heard his
fine address will certainly be glad
to have him come to Philip again.
Again. we feel it our pleasant
duty to say that the local Legion
post deserves congratulations AID
highest praise for the signal man
ner in. which they carried out the
program of the day, and this GER
tainiy includes Mr.. G.. V. Welch,
Commander of the post, and his
various committees and helpers on
whom fell the burden of making
the arrangements. Let us resolve
now to observe Decoration Day
hereafter, and ever keep the pro-
gram up to the same high stand

SOUTH DAKOTA FARMERS
INTRODUCE MORE LEGUMES

Hundreds of South Dakota far
mers have introduced more legume
crops into their farming systems
in 1921 than in many years past,
according to all reports received
by State College agronomists, I
says Ralph E. Johnston, extension
agronomist at the college.
This is a real forward step in
the working out of better crop
rotation system" states Mr.. john
ston, "and will result in larger
yields, costing less to produce be-
cause of the great benefit to the
soil.
All legume crops alfalfa, Glow
ers, soybeans-when properly in
oculated, use the nitrogen from
the air Nitrogen is one of the
necessary elements which all plants
must have and which is not found
in most soils in quantities large
enough to permit of MAXIMUM
crop production. All crops but
the legumes get all eft heir nitro
gen from the soil.
South Dakota farmers who
have not yet planted the acreage
of some legume that they should,
can still do So by using good seed
put into a fine, firm, we'll prepar~
ed seed bed. There is not a farm
in South Dakota but what needs
more legumes.

observance of the day than did
Philip.
In the morning there was a
march to the cemetery for the
exercises there. The Philip band
lead. Then came the members of
the Legion in uniform, members
OF the Auxiliary of the Legion,
the Boy Scouts with their officers,
the Camp Fire Girls also with
their officers, school children bear
ing flowers and wreaths, and then
about fifty or seventy automobiles
loaded with the populace. The
line of march was in fact quite
creditable.
At the cemetery the Legion
members made fitting salute and
other tribute to the holiored dead
of both Great Wars. Prayer was

other prosecutions ended in a like
manner.
As a result it looks as if Sunday
baseball. might not be dead, after
all. Of course, it is still a crime
to pay for the privilege of witness
ing ball game on Sunday, but
if one wishes to buy parking
space for his car, and happens to
land right along a ball game on a
Sunday afternoon, that is entirly
another matter.

SIMPLE METHOD OF
CONTROLLING HOPPERS

Grasshoppers seldom injure the
first cutting Of alfalfa in South
Dakota because they are too small
lat that time, suggests A. L. Ford
extension entomologist at State
College. IF left unchecked these
young hoppers will often ruin a
second crop, whether left for seed
.or for hay he says.
When cutting the first crop of
alfalfa in June it will always be
noticed that the young hoppers
keep moving over into the stand
ing alfalfa. They never fail to
ito this. When this first cutting
Is made, if uncut strips about a
sickle-bar in width are left every
30 or 40 yards across the fields, it
will be found that in a day or two
practically all of the young hop
pers will be concentrated on these
strips. 1t simply punches or traps
the hoppers where they can be
poisoned with the poisoned bran
mash with a great saving of time,
labor, and material.
In hopper control there is but
one chance each year to use this
scheme and that is in June when
the first cutting is made. IF the
time of the first cutting slip: by
before poisoning is started, great
opportunity has been lost. Rene
mber alfalfa cutting time in
June as grasshopper poisoning
time.
