WHAT SHOULD Be
DONE IN APRIL
STATE COILEGE GIVES TIMELY
ADVICE TO FARMERS ABOUT
DUTIES THIS MONTH.

Brookings, April THE South
Dakota Agricultural college has is
sued the following timely advice to
farmers of the state as to things to
be done in April:
Sow flax early-Seeding of flax
as early as April Is is not only pos
sible but is very desirable, as shown
by experiments conducted by thee
South Dakota experiment station.
Flax is not as tender as is commonly
believed and the plants are able to
withstand a considerable degree of
cold after they have passed the two
leaf stage. Careful attention to such
essentials as variety, rotations, soil
preparations, selection and treatment
of seed. time. rate and depth of seed
ing, and weed and disease prevention
will increase the likelihood of pro
ducing flax permanently and profit
ably
Look at tile outlet-Have you
been down to look over the tile out
let this spring? If dirt or trash has
collected so as to hold back the least
bit of water In the tile thert is dam
ger of its causing a filling in of dirt,
which may give trouble.
Select your porker-The baby
pork club is feeding demonstration
for the junior farmers. The porker
should be selected in April so that
he can be put on feed May l. Two
and one-half pounds gain per day
will make the pig of May a real hog
by Sept. /.
Good war mhome for chicks-Al
members of the boys and girls poul-
try clubs should make definite ar
rangements for housing and feeding
the baby chicks. The largest per-
centage of loss of the year comes
from poor housing and feeding OF
chicks. Make plans now to give your
chick family good warm home and
balanced rations.

RESUME WORK ON
CAPITAL GROUNDS
SOUTH DAKOTA COMMISSION EX.
PECTS TO HAVE IMPROVE
MENT COMPLETED AT EAR
LY DATE.

Pierre, April 7.-Work has been
resumed on the improvement to the
capitol grounds which was started
last summer and continued through
a portion of the winter. 1t is expect
ed to push the work already begun
to completion and this will not be
a large job as 1t is estimated by the
of the work has already been ac-
complished.
1t is estimated that $1,000 cubic
yards of earth have been removed in
removing the silt from the bed of
Capitol lake and in building the one
approach to the new bridge which
has been put in to span the upper
end of the lake Above this bridge
the settling basins will be put in to
prevent the silt from the large draw
washing down into the lake and fill
ing it up as it has done in the past.
The new bridge is completed with
the exception of the west approach
and this will be completed soon and
the bridge opened to traffic connect
ing with the street Immediately in
the rear of the capitol building. This
arrangement will be used until such
time as the state acquires title to the
property through which the contem
plated road over this bridge will
pass
1t is planned to do the riprappins
necessary around the border of the
lake and put in the large drain
which will carry off the storm water
fro mthe settling basins. :
The actual work of gardening the
border of the lake probably cannot
be undertaken this summer though
some of this work may be done be-
fore the next winter sets in.

Washington, April IA sensa-
tional charge that the Alabama Farm
Bureau federation has been offered
a virtual bribe of two million five
hundred thousan dollats if it would
seek to obtain from the government
the leasing of the Muscle Shoals nj
trate plant number q. and thus de-
feat the efforts of Henry Ford to
lease the entire project, were made
in documents made public today by
the American Farm Bureau Fedora
ton. In a letter Roy c. Bishop,
secretary and manager of the Ala
bama federation, alleged that he
had been approached by General r..
E. Steiner who urged the Alabama
federation to seek lease and said
that the company purchasing the
other part of the plant would make
a two and half million dollar contri-
button to the federation.

Pays Conscience Debt
After Fifty-One Years

Utica, N. Y, April 7.-Because he
left Colgate u in 1871 unable to pay
board bill of 81, Frank S. Lyon,
of Wolverine, Mich, has sent the
u $27.42, which is equal to 81 and
simple interest at per cent, for the
81 years intervening.
The amount was owing to Byron
Richardson, who conducted a board
ing house, and Lyon asked that the
money be turned over to him, If liv-
ing, or his heirs. After the letter
from Lyon was read to the student
body Harold B. Hamilton, of Ander-
son, Ind, freshman at the univer-
sity informed the treasurer that he
is grandson of Byron Richardson
When his claim was substantiated
the conscience money was given to
him.

prehensions which have beset the
minds of government employees since
President Harding's overnight re-
movai of 90 busreau of engraving Of
ficials were partially allayed today
by Secretary Melon, who circulated
among the personnel of the treas
ury department a memorandum say
ing that reports of impending whole
sale dismissals in the internal rev.
enue bureau were without founda-
rtion.
Stories tha theads are to fall right
and left in the reorganization of the
internal revenue bureau. Mr.. Mel

official source The secretary s
statement, however, did not pre-
clude the possibility that changes
may be expected in the bureau and
in other government departments
as the work of bringing the govern
ment service up to the highest stand
ard of efficiency continues.
Such changes are predicted by
high officials generally.
Some rumors started among gov

engraving order have considerably
unsettled the routine of some bu-
reaus, according to officials. because
they have started many men and wo-
men worrying about possible further

improve that situation.
1t also was indicated after the
memorandum was circulated thai
changes which are yet to be made In
the treasury personnel would be ac.
complished gradually and that ne
| wholesale dismissals are to bt
feared.
Louis A. Hill, the new director o1

day with President Harding. He sait
that he had not yet signed for th'
stock on hand and was waiting thu
results of the new investigation nov
being conducted by the department
of justice. This investigation and in
ventory, he added. would probabl.
take some weeks.

been duplication in the numbering
of Liberty bonds, high officials de
