Mitchell, S. d., Sept. l3:-Congress-
man VIM. Williamson passed through
here on an overland trip to Washing
ton, ID. c. He expects to visit with
relatives and friends at a number of
points enroute While the lower house
will probably recess till about October
3lst, in order to give the senate finance
committee time to finish its hearings on
the house tariff and revenue measures,
he is departing early in order to appear
before the finance committee on the
wool and alfalfa schedules which he
hopes to have raised to point where
they will be satisfactory to wool growers
and producers of pure alfalfa seed.
He will also present facts and figures
gathered while on a recent visit among
the constituents of his district to the
Interstate Commerce Commission with
a view to inducing the commission to
order reduced freight rates on coal, and
on hay, grain, cattle, hogs and other
bulky farm products. 1t is his conten-
tion that the rates now carried by these
products are so high as no longer to be
productive of the maximum revenue to
the railways He says that a decided
reduction in these rates will not only
help the farmers but will stimulate rail-
way traffic and greatly improve condi-
tions generally.

PLAN TOAD STOCKME len
The State Board of Agriculture Will As
sist Cattle Growers in Preparing
for Market

Pierre, Sept. l2:-Plans whereby wes-
tern range cattlemen of South Dakota
will meet the farmers in the eastern part
of the state halfway in filing their feed
er lots with unfinished animals to the
advantage of both the range man and
the farmer have been worked out by
the state department Of agriculture and
are about to be put into operation
Arrangements have been made with
certain west river bankers and livestock
men to finance the purchase of feeder
steers by feeders in the eastern portion
of the state direct. The arrangement
will require 20 cash on the part Of the
purchaser, will eliminate commissions,
do away with unnecessary freight
charges, and the trip to market and re-
turn will obviale excessive shrinkage
and loss of condition, according to the
agricultural departments announcement
of the plan.
Under the plan as explained by the
department, the western bankers and
stockmen will take the note of the feed
er, who is equipped with feed and other
facilities for handling the stock, for the
full purchase price of the cattle, pro-
vided his local bank will endorse the
paper in order to assure the western
banker that the buyer is responsible
and reputable man, and in order that
someone in the locality Of the feeder
will conserve the interest of the banker
who carries the pager Of the stockmen
supplying the cattle These notes be
come payable when the cattle are sold
on the market They are credited to the
stockman's Indebtedness to the bank i'm
mediately upon being turned over.
In the neighborhood of 1000 head
have been pledged the department thu
far by western stockmen to start thi-
unique scheme As fast as these ar
placed more will be available, accordir z
to Hugh n. Allen, special assistant com
missioner of agriculture, who developed
the plan Mr. Allen believes his idea
will mean fair profit to the slockman
and will provide a means for the west
ern farmer to realize more money on
his crops

LITTLE BOY KILLED BY HORSE

LITTLE BOY KILLED BY HORSE.
A very sad accident occurred on the
Harry Barton ranch, about eight miles
northwest Of town, on Friday of last
week when little Billie Gould, the seven
year old son Of Mr. and Mrs Jay Gould,
was thrown from the back Of horse,
became entangled in the harness and
was dragged to death.
Billie, in company with Mr.. Barton's
little boy, had gone with Milton Rhodes
from their home at the Barton and
Gould saw mill over to Mr. Barton's
ranch where Rhodes was shocking hay.
The team which they drove had been
unhitched from the spring wagon and
tied to the fence. Shortly before noon
the two little boys united the horses,
mounted them aud rode for some water
for their noon.day lunch The horse
upon which Billie was riding, whether
Tightening at the bucket which the lit
tie boy was carrying, or from some other
cause, started to run, throwing Billie
from his back. The boys feet caught in
the harness in such way as to drag him
for some distance, his little head and
body being struck a number of times by
the horses hoofs Milton Rhodes with
the assistance of the little Barton boy,
placed him in the spring wagon and took

Pierre, Sept. l3.-Unless legal notices
are posted in three public places
throughout the county or published in
the official newspaper f,e days before
a special meeting of the board of county
commissioners as required by law, the

cording to a recent opinion by the state

The opinion, which was written by
Assistant Attorney General V. r.
sickles was called for in an inquiry
brought the department by Elmer Err
win, clerk Of courts in Faux county,
asking whether the commissioners
could meet in special session without
giving notice and legally appoint some
one to fill the vacancy in the Office of

PUSH GREAT HIGHWAY
New Gulf to Canada Route Will Pass
Through the Black Hills on
Way North.

Friday afternoon Of last week delega
tions from every Hills townand city and
a number Of towns in Nebraska, met in
the club rooms Of the Deadwood Busi.
ness Club to discuss the new highway
that has been proposed from the Gulf Of
Mexico to Alaska
state organization was perfected
aud work started on plans for putting
the proposition over Mr.. Glatley, of
Hot Springs, was elected president Of
the organization and, it being thought
best to elect Hot Springs man as secre
tary and treasurer so that the two could
work together, Mr. Southard was chosen
for that position. NJ NJ Wheeler, of
Deadwood, was elected vice president of
the organization In addition TO a pres
.dent, vice president and secretary, a
vice president was elected from every
Hills town, through which the proposed
road will pass. An incomplete list Of
vice presidents follows A. A. Coburn
for Deadwood j. L. Curran for Lead :;
$ T. Ainslie for Custer Albert Ander-
son for Sturgs; Owen Moore for Rapid
City; Mr.. Colby for st. Onge; Mr.. Abb
ender for Belle Fourche aud DR.. Shirrell
for Camp Crook Mr. Rich, of Pied
mont and Mr.. Gideon of the Custer
game preserve were also honored by be-
ing named vice presidents.
The road has already been mapped
out as far as Hot Springs from the Gulf
and it was decided to divide the high
way from there north through the Hills,
one fork passing through Rapid City,
Piedmont and Sturgis to Deadwood
where it will meet the other branch
which will pass through Custer, Lead
and meet the other branch which will
run thence to Deadwood. From here
the proposed road will lead northward
through st. Onge, Belle Fourche and
Camp Crook, on into North Dakota and
from there into Canada. The name Of
the new highway is "North Star Route -
10 is argued that the entire Hills section
will benefit by the new road, which will
make the Black Hills easily accessible
from a long distance, both north and
south, crossing as it docs every import
ant trans-continental highway from east
to west. 1t will also, by the new plan
Of two forks, reach every important
point Of the Hills by a hard surfaced
highway, which will be passable in all
kinds Of weather.

WESTERN ROADS TO
REDUCE RATES,

Washington, Sept. l3.- Reduction by
western roads in rates on cattle, hogs
and sheep, in the opinion Of the inter
state commerce commission, "will prove
of material benefit to western livestock
raisers who have been heavily affected
by the rapid decline in livestock prices
since July, 1920.
The commission expressed the belief
today in announcing it had authorized
the reductions proposed by the carriers,
which will become effective September
Goth, and will amountto 20 per cent. in
cases where the present rates are higher
than so cents a hundred pounds. But
in no case will decrease the rate below
so cents a hundred.
Under the new tariff practically all
rates from points west Of the Missouri
river to Chicago and from all points
west of the Rocky Mountains will be
reduced in amount ranging from one to
% cents per pound.
