SHIPPING SEASON OPENS EARLY

One of our active young business
men,-who is old enough to know
better, fell for the ancient and
honorable ''snipe hunt" one night
last week. A group of his com
Danions, deeply interested in his
oducation, took our friend to a
lonely draw five miles northeast of
town, and left him there with a
lantern and a very large sack to
wait the coming of the snipes.
Armed with d bloody club the vic
tim waited a good many hours,
before his tormentors went back
and broke the news that school
was out for that night, and that
the young man would do well to
come home and go to bed.

Lice On Cattle and Horses
Cause Them To Lose Flesh

Brookinps, S. D.-Cattle and
horses are frequently infested with
lice during the spring of the year.
The lice cause SO much irritation
that the animals lose flesh and do
not do we'll. Too much time is
spent scratching and not enough
in eating. The animals have q
rough coat and lose patches OF
hair.
Lice on animals may be killed
by the use Of solution of coal
tar dip, suggests DIR. G. S. Weaver
extension specialist in animal dis
ease sat State College. Hand appli-
cations may be given at this time
of the year if the aninls are pro-
perly housed nd blan'teted after
treatment. Probably the best pow-
der is a combination of sulphur
and ground sabadilla seed Sui
nhur alone may be applied once
or twice, a week apart. Any
powder that is used will not be az
efficient as washing with q solu-
tion of coal of tar.

A GOOD TEAM

This senatorial and representa-
tive district has every reason to
feel well satisfied with its selec-
tons, made last November. J. d.
Morrison aquitted himself very
cfeditably in the upper body of
the Legislature, ! and Representa-
tive r. p. Walker established a
record of achievement and popu-
larity seldom equalled by first
termers. The sixty days Of legis-
lative grind are very trying and
the members have hundreds of
perplexing problems to pass upon,
bringing a feeling Of relief when
the session finally adjourns. TAX
en- all in all, we are sure that our
district was as efficiently repres-
ented during the pereiod of state
law making as any district in
South Dakota.

WILL THERE BE BASE
BALL TETS SUMMER?

Some of the local Phiiia fans
are wondering just what sort Of
storm is blowing up for base
ball this summer. The legislature
did not repeal the Sunday baseball
law as was hoped by ardent Ia-
votees of the game, and therefore
the legislative score board stands
just as it was. Before the session
the attorney general recommend
ed that the law be repealed, and
announced that if the legislature
did not repeal the old law, he
would feel in duty bound to en-
force it.
The Legislature by its failure to
take action has simply checked
the bet back to the attorney gen
eral, and he is calling a confer
ence of states attorneys t. meet
with him at Huron in a few days.
The rumor is that this j. to. con-
slider the enforcement Of Sunday
laws, and that plans will be out
lined for the summer with base
ball as the objective.
A good many people believe that
the attorney general is ripht as to
this, even though they believe in
Sunday baseball They no not be-
lieve in violating the law, and they
think that a good vigorous enforc-

WHAT ARMOUR THINKS ABOUT
FUTURE OF LIVESTOCK
INDUSTRY.

Giving the packers their due, II
Is admitted that~thef are about the
hest lot of business men in the
United States. No business is SO
complex as theirs, and they under
stand it from top 60 bottom. No
cne else knows so much about the
livestock industry as they do. Con
seQuently we are glad to submit
for the consideration of our read
crs some very recent remarks of
Mr.. J. Ogden Armour upon the
subject of the future of the live
stock industry. The editor has cut
them with his sharp shears right
out of the heart of a recent an
Lual report of Mr.. Armour's COM
pany sent out to its stockholders.
"'5non the future of the livestock
industry depends an important
food problem. But equally related
to it is the question of what we
must pay for clothing, shoes and
numerous other necessares. For
meat production and the product
ion of leather and wool go hand
IN hand. Bv beinp a ronat-aating
nation we make prices for leather
and wooden goods lower than they
would otherwise be.
With the exception of a temnor-
ary revival during the war, live
stock production has steadily de-
ctined during the past two decades
though population has steadily in
creased. The year 1920 showed
continuation of this downward
trend. During the first eleven
months the slaughter of cattle,
sheep and swine at the principal
racking centers was less by nearly
FIVE million animals than in 1919
At the same time birth of calves
on the farms decreased % per cent
and pigs 10 per cent during the
first half of the year. The replen-
ishing of herds and focks by ship
ments of stockers and feeders
from the pricipal markets exper-
fenced a falling off of Pig per
cent in the case of cattle and Is. 3
per cent in the case of hogs, and
II per cent in the case Of shoer,
for the first eleven months.
It has become increasingly dtiti-
cult for the producer to raise or
fatten meat animals at a profit
Greater expertness in feeding is
needed. More capital is requires
TIE days of cheap feed, cheap land
and rough-and-ready methods he
long to time that are past. These
facts are laying restraining hold
on livestock production.
Or the other hand, we may look |
with confidence to other factors
that are working in the opposite
Combining animal hus-
bandry with crop-raising is a pro-
tective measure which the farmer
more and more appreciates. 1t is |
one of the best means he has of |
maintaining the fertility of his
soil and distributing the risks of
his business.
Meat animals constitute one of |
his largest sources of revenue; and /
for his output he has a daily cash |
market, thanks to the highly or
ganized state of the packing in
dustry.
1t is true that for the 'in-and-
outer" livestock raising is pre-
carious undertaking. But for the
producer who is willing to take |
the lean years with the fat and
conducts his operations on busi- /
ness basis, experience shows that
profits are regularly made over
stated eperiods. {"

Tn many sections Of Texas there
are demands now for cottonseed for
planting the 1922 crop.
Many local banks are not in n
position TO advance money to buy
cotton seed without help. On the
other hand, good seed can be bought
now direct from the growers and
breeders at a very low price. II rs
our opinion that by taking advantage
Of early buying OF seed there will be
saved almost as much az the seed
will cost now. The Deputy Govern
or Of the Federal Reserve Bank of
Dallas has informed us that loans FOR
the purchase OF seed for future
planting may be handled in the fol-
lowing way:
Local bankers, or other interest

the individual farmer and made pay

the warehouse receipt TO the farmers

Should the local banker not be a
member Of the Federal Reserve sys-
TEN, he can rediscount them with

they in turn can rediscount with the

The seed may be held in ware

forms Of security can be substituted
for the warehouse receipts and the
loan extended not 10 exceed another

II County Farm Bureaus that are
Interested In buying cotton seed will
take this matter up with their local
