Deer BrOwses
In COrnfield

Lennox, Nov. 17.-Farmers near
Lennox may go deer hunting this
fall without travelling a mile from
their homes, for the, wild life of the
Black Hills is apparently moving
eastward into Lincoln county. AT
least one animal has arrived, per-
haps to herald the coming of a
troop.
Browsing at the edge of corn
field where any passer-by might view
him, handsome young deer has
been seen several times by farmers
10 miles southeast of Lennox. Since
there are no woods near there in
which the beast might hide. he lives
apparently in the fields and gets his
food from the farmers crops.
No one has yet approached the
deer closely, but those who have
seen him have distinguished three
prongs on his broad antlers, indicat-
ing that he is apparently about three
years old.

LIMITATION OF
ARMS CONFE} Renee
INDICATIONS THAT THE PARLEY
is MAKING GOOD PROG
RESS,

Washington, Nov. 1.-THE arms
limitation conference will finish its
work within two months, one OF
Americas big four delegates pre-
dicted today. The parley, he said,
is making better progress on both
limitation of armament and far east
ern questions that was expected. The
United States, this delegate indicat-
ed, will present no comprehensive
plan for limitation of armament and
far eastern questions. The limita-
tion of armies discussions is to be
based on Premier Brands speech on
this question before the conference
next week. The big nine of the
conference went into secret session
today togo over China's program for
making the far east less of an in.
ternational trouble breeder. Japan's
position held the interest of those
who from the outside watched the
gathering.

Booze Parties
Very Strenuous

Lennon, Nov. 17.-As the result
of parties" in which "hootch" was
the principal beverage, two men are
in local hospital-one with frac-
tured skull and another with brok-
en- jaw.
The former was injured in fight
near Bison, following his departure
from a se-called wild party" and
is not expected to live. The other
was a north Lennon victim. Local
officers are making an investigation
and arrests may follow.
According to the local authorities
most of the residents of Lennon do
not favor the prohibition law and
laugh at its violation, and drinks,
it is alleged, can now be bought as
easily as during the days when Lem
mon supported seven saloons. 1t Ii
claimed that every night "hootch'
flows freely, indicating that prohibi.
tion is as yet in its infancy and thai
very little effort is made to have II
enforced.

!. s. ROAD FUND
NOW AVAILABLE
CHRISTOP III T. r.
son SAYS STATE CAN HAVE
100000 NOW, REST IN JAN
UARY.

Sioux Falls, Nov. 17.-Of the ST.
204,060.31 coming to the state oi
South Dakota for good roads, under
the federal aid law just passed
$401,353 will be available imme-
diately, and the balance will be avail
able Jan. L. The amount voted by
the federal government must be
matched by like amount voted by
the state, according to Congressman
c. A. Christopherson.
The first federal good roads law
was passed in 1917, and from that
time until June 80, 1921, there has
been credited to South Dakota the
sum of s4.452,8S3. OF this amount,
s1,619,304, has already been paid to
the state.
The completed propects in the
state amount to $2,297,440, and the
difference between this and the
amount paid will be paid as soon as
the proper vouchers are presented.
There is under construction in
South Dakota, projects involving
$3,831,633 part of which has been
completed and is included in the
above figures. Projects have been
approved for construction involving
s4,285,631, which amount includes
both the completed and that under
construction. or the amount allot-
ted to the state up to last June, only
$107,252 remains which has not yet
been covered by contracts approved
or completed.
In the law just passed, there is a
provision for maintenance of roads
built by the federal aid plan. If the
state fails in this, the government
will do so, and deduct the amount
from the states allotment.

DECIDES PHASE
OF PRIMARY LAW
ATTORNEY GENERAL MAKE
RULING ON METHOD OF
COUNTY PROPOSALMEN.

Pierre, Nov. 17.-On inquiry from
McCook county another feature of
the primary law is called to the at
tention of the attorney general, and
his ruling secured upon it.
Apparently the law specifically
provides that at the adjourned meet
ing of the precinct proposalmen in
December, at which time they are
called together to adopt a platform
and select county official nominees,
it is provided that they shall vote by
what is known as unit representa-
ton, which is defined to mean that
each of the three proposalmen shall
cast one-third of the strength of the
vote for governor in his precinct at
the last previous election.
But at the meeting the second
Tuesday in November, when it is the
duty of the precinct proposalmen to
select three county proposalmen to
attend the state convention, the only
regulation specifically called for is
that such selections shall be made by
roll call
After a review of the different pro-
visions of the law Attorney General
Payne cites the proviion of the law
which says: "In such meeting each
proposalman shall vote the number
of votes equal to one-third of the
number of votes cast at the preced-
ing general election in his precinct
for the party's candidate for COVER
nor"
On this he holds that the statute
intends that the vote for state pro-
posalmen shall be by "unit repre-
sentation."
The meeting In December is an
adjournment of the November meet
ing, and the provisions as to the
manner of voting may be construed
as applying to both sessions of the
meeting of these precinct proposal
men.
The fact that the general scheme
of the law is for proposalmen to vote
by unit representation supports such
construction.

Watertown. Nov. 17.-An impos-
ing array of containers, from the
convenient flat half pint variety that
fit neatly into the hip pocket to
large brown jugs, was lined up along

CERTIFIED SEED
SHOWS ITS WORTH
SOUTH DAKOTA POTATO GROW
Frs HAVE PRACTICAL EXAM
PIE In THE RESULTS.

Hayti, Nov. 17.-Through an edu-
cational campaign conducted by the
Hamlin county farm bureau, farm
ers who planted certified seed pota-
toes have this fall obtained an aver
age yield of 1914 bushels per acre,
while their neighbors who planted
common seed obtained a yield OF
10O.S bushels, an increase of 93.6
bushels per acre. This gave an ad-
ditional profit of 5000 per acre. at
rs cents per bushel, above the re-
turns from common seed.
A county wide survey conducted
by the farm bureau shows that $50
acres inthe county were this year
planted with certified seed. At
5000 per acre which the farmers
obtained more than the average
grower who planted common seed
they secured net profit of SIG, ,169,
which is more than equivalent to
their share of the expense of farm
bureau services for years to come.
According to statement just
made by the Hamlin county farm bu
reau, If every grower in the county.
had taken advantage of the assist
ance of the farm bureau and extern.
sion work in the one item Of pota
toes, and If they had received only
one-half the increased yield which
was received this year, more than
$235,000 extra profit would have
been received for the services on po-
tatoes alone.
Potato improvement through the
use of certified seed potatoes is one
of the major projects of the Hamlin
county farm bureau, cooperating
with the State college extension di-
vision. County Agent A. w. Homp-
kins calls attention to the fact that
not only has this work assisted the
growers of certified potatoes to pro-
duce larger yields. more uniform.
type with the elimination of disease,
all of which means better prices, but
it has also brought to the attention
of the average grower the fact that
it lies within his power to obatin like
results by making use of this service.

Huron, Nov. 17--Auto thieves and
"hootch runners" had a setback
here, it is believed, when one of two
Cadillac touring cars stolen from

miles south of Huron, and was TAX
en- in tow by Sheriff Miller and Dep

tires and other accessories until an
other car approached, when they got
into the good machine and headed
north at high speed. The driver OF
the car following Immediately re-
ported the matter as suspicious to
the sheriff's office.
The sheriff and his deputy hurried
to the scene, but were unable to
trace the car and it's five passengers
for any great distance. Calls were
sent ahead and North Dakota Off
cials were asked to be on the look
out. The abandoned car was filled

with sufficient gasoliiss I'm cans to

states.
The recovered car was brought to
Huron and identified by wire by the
Sioux City authorities.

rounds brought out no change in
top hogs as compared to that of the

the bulk ran on up to the crest,
enough sales landing at $3.50 to
make the alteration possible. From
$3.50 the price list ranged on down
