REPORT OF SEAL SALE

The returns from the last Christmas
seal sale, have just been completed
by the South Dakota Public Health
association, under whose direction the
sale is held each year. The total sale
in the state amounted to a little over
$4,000, or about &c per capita. 1t is
customary for the state association
to offer an award to the rural school
in each county that sells the largest
number Of seals in proportion to It's
enrolment, providing the total amount
sold by all of the rural schools in the
county amounts to more than $1OO.
Thirty-six schools won pennants this
last Christmas in this contest.
The state association also offered to
the town or city having the largest
per capita sale, a large banner appro-
priately inscribed. In 1919 this prize
was won by the town Of Ipswich. Ed
munds county, which had a per capita
sale of over SO cents. This town also
won the first prize in the 1920 seal
sale, with a per capita sale Of 47R
cents. The population of Ipswich is
9O9, and a sale of seals and health
bonds to the amount of SAL, is GER
tainly remarkable.
The city of Pierre was also In the
race, and because they came so much
nearer to winning the prize than any
city, the state association is 60
ing to present to Pierre a complit
mentary banner. The sale of seals and
bonds in Pierre was SLIPS, or 35 cents
per capita. In the contest this year,
the cities and towns will be divided
into classes, so there will be Some
chance for the larger cities to CON-
pete.

Three days passed. Don Juan Cafe
tero had been buried with all the pomp
and circumstance Of a national hero:
Mother jerks, too, had gone to her ap-
pointed resting place, and Ell Buen
Amigo had been closed forever. Ricar-
do had issued a proclamation announc-
ing himself provisional president Of
Sobrante; a convention Of revolution
airy leaders had been held. and a provi-
sional cabinet selected. A day for the
national elections had been named the
w~reckage of the brief revolution had
been cleared away, and the wheels of
government were once mor revolving
freely and noiselessly. And while all
Of this had been going on, John Stu
art Webster had lain on his back, star
ing at the palace ceiling and absolute
ly forbidden to receive visitors. He
was still engaged in this mild form Of
gymnastics on the third day when the
door Of his opened and Dolores

It was exactly the tone she should
have adopted to get the best results,

WILL ADVERTISE DAKOTA SPUDS

The South Dakota Cooperative Pc.
tato Growers Exchange has made a
cooperative arrangement with the
State Farm Bureau Federation where
by the advertising of the exchange will
be handled by the federation.
The agreement was effected at HUI
ron on Friday at the meeting of the
board Of directors of the potato grow
ers, at which the Farm Bureau Fed
Grafton was represented by NJ. r. Ben
edict, secretary, and Geo. A. Starring,
director of advertising. 1t is planned
to advertise South Dakota potatoes
wherever a high quality product is ap-
preciated.
Frank E. Mccall, manager of the
Potato Growers Exchange, believes
this advertising arrangement will be
of great benefit to the producers of
the state. The Farm Bureau Fedora
ton is equipped to take care Of the
advertising in a manner which will
popularize the South Dakota potato
to such an extent that the annual
crop will be disposed of advantageous
ly to the producers.
In speaking of the agreement, Sec
rotary Benedict says: The Farm Bu-
reau is heartily in favor of the pro-
gram Of marketing as arranged by the
potato growers of South Dakota, and
we want to cooperate with them in
every way possible to make their work
successful. The officers Of the ex-
change are practical business farmers
who will protect the interests Of their
potato growers. They have employed
a manager who knows the potato bust
ness and who is in a position to give
them maximum service"

ABLE OCCASION

Members of the Board Of Trade of the
City of Wildwood were prompted to
hold a banquet at this season OF the
wear because of the building, boom that
has not only astonished our own citizens,
but has attracted the attention of strang-
ers who are flocking here in great num-
bers.
There was a disposition to get together
around the festive board and keep the
tide of prosperity flowing.
Optimism is in the air; this is evil
denced by the sale of tickets, that will
bring together in large numbers men
and women not only of progressive
thought, but of action, who have a de-
termination to put Wildwood over the
top.
A commendable spirit Of cooperation
has been shown the committee in charge
bv our citizens and strangers who are
here that promises success.
On Saturday evening, May 18th, will
occur the most enthusiastic gathering
ever held in Wildwood.
The speakers for the evening are Hon
William N. Runyon, State Senator and
former Governor of New Jersey; Hon.
Henry H. Eldredge, Judge, Cape May
County: Hon. William H. Bright, Mem
Der of the Senate from Cape May County;
Samuel P. Leeds, President of the Cham
Der of Commerce of Atlantic County;
r. L. Russell, Vice President of Philadel-
phia and Reading Railway.
Music-Members of Philadelphia Or
chestra.
We are assured of an evening filled
with delightful entertainment as well as
valuable instruction.
The committee desires prompt returns
from the persons holding tickets, as the
demand is pressing from strangers who
wish to attend.
