DUROc BREEDERS RALLY

The Duroc Breeders and Club men,
bers have planned a big rally at the
City hall in Bookings, Feb. "a, prompt
ly at s p. m. Every live red hog
breeder in the county will be there.
This meeting follows the Duroc sale
held in the afternoon. The Boys and
Girls Duroc club plans will be made
for the year, and every new member
should come. Professor Wilson VI
State college, and A. l.. Haynes, field
secretary Of the State Duroc Breeders
association, have promised to talk on
the hog business. DR.. G. S. Weaver
will speak on hog cholera.
The hog business is On a sound basis
today. The market hog always has
been. A few breeders have sacrificed
in the breeding Of better hogs. That
is true in any good cause. Look what
they have done for South Dakota.
The standard of hogs has been raised
100 per cent in the past decade, and
hog raising has become a leading bust
ness. South Dakota ranks third in
the number Of hogs per farm in the
United States. according to a recen:
government report.

BREAKING RECORDS AGAIN

South Dakota will lead all the
states Of the union in the production
OF new wealth by boys and girls club
members for 1921, in all probability,
according to P. J. Scarbro, state club
leader in the State college extension
service. South Dakota club members
stood first during the calendar year
1919 and 1920. The 1921 report is
now being made up at Washington,
This years record, according to the
state calendar, is on a par with the
achievement of the two previous
years, considering the slump in the
value Of farm products.
The 459 organized clubs in the state,
with an enrolment of 5,507 boys and
girls, reported a total production for
1921 OF s209,3S1.34 new wealth at a
cost Of $~93,219.27, making the net pro-
duction $116, 162.07. These clubs took
up the following projects: Corn, po-
tato, baby-pork, sow-litter, cow-calf,
baby-beef, sheep, poultry, canning,
bread and sewing.
There were more sewing clubs than
were organized in any other project.
There were 1,497 girls enrolled in the
sewing demonstration. They produced
garments valued at $5,363.19 at a cost
of $2,819.80, the total value above cost
being ~$2,543.39.
The 80 sow-litter clubs, with a mem
bership OF 1925, made the finest pro-
duction record. Their net profits
amounted to 69,663.10. They pro-
duced S127,S76.14 in a new wealth, at
a cost Of $~58,213.04.

CORN CHAMP TELLS HOW

Robert MaComb, a member of the
Frookings County Corn club raised
rs bushels of Early Mu,GOck corn
on n acre during the season Of 1921
an" broke the state record 70" yield.
A 10-ear exhibit 0, this corr won
TIC reserve championship at the State
Corn show recently held at Mitchell.
Ii also won first in the district Ut The
same show, and first at the ?,"Okings
County Corn CLUB show.
The story of GLOW I Raised Ny Acre
of Corn that orolLceI 11o Bushels"
by Robert MrComb. which follows,
shows that his achievement in grow
ing the corn is ali exa,np',, CT pains
taking work:
"The land that I used to raise my
corn on was an alfalfa hog pasture for
four years, and before I broke it up
in the fall l top dressed it with manure
from the stock yards. In the spring
as soon as the frost was out ! har.
rowed it down; her just before | got
ready to plant l top dressed it twice
with manure from the cattle and hog
barns, using a spreader to put it on
with, at the rate of 10 loads each
time. Then 1 disked it thoroughly to
work this down into the lard,
after which it was narrowed twice.
81 planted a strain Of Early Murdoch
corn and tested each a to make sure
it would grow. l planted it the 10th
Of May, using a three foot four inch
planter, and checking from four to
five kernals to the hill. Then it was
thoroughly narrowed again so as to
leave a mulch on top. AS soon as
the corn was up and large enough l
started to cultivate it with a disk
c%ultivator. After l had plowed it
twice with the disk l used a four
shovel cultivator to loosen up the
ground, following Immediately with
the disk so as to hold the moisture.
After this l cultivated it twice with
the disk; the last time was July 6
when the corr was about six feet tall
and had tassel. I find from exper-
fence the more corn is cultivated and
the later, the larger will be the yield.
There is nothing better than shallow
%cultivating to keep the ground clean
and the corn growing. Deep cultiva-
ton disturbs the roots and checks the
growth and lets the ground dry out.
Our aim should be to hold the moist
ure, keep the ground clean and the
corn growing as fast as possible.

THE WINTER OF 1881

Those who read the interesting his
~torical sketch in last weeks Register,
written by M. r. Baldridge Of Broad
land, one of the pioneer settlers of
Brookings county, will enjoy his ac-
count Of his experiences in Brookings
county in the winter of 1881, which
will be long remembered because Of
its severity.
The first heavy snow came on
October Is with a strong wind. The
rail and wagon roads were blocked, a
serious condition since there was but
a small supply Of fuel and food in
the country. The 10Y was too deep
to use horses 50 we took ropes and
drew hay and straw by hand for feed
and fuel. Rev. Cox fed and watered
his horses through a hole in the hay
roof of his stable. l helped him dig
them out in the spring.
In some instances two families
would go in together, occupying the
same shelter to save fuel. They would
divide the shanty into two apartments
by hanging up bed quilts for parti-
tions. Some were reduced to such
straits hat they tore up the floor and
used the wood for fuel. 1t was said
that one family split up the organ for
firewood. Snow fences along the
railroad were taken and some ties
were dug up and burned.
About two hundred men Of the
community, myself among them,
turned out and opened up the railroad
to Tracy, Mimi, but a storm came
on the night we got to Tracy and we
had to start back Immediately, work
ing our passage home. The storm
was a bad one, blocking the railroad
hopelessly, so we got 10 relief from

We are at last thinking in the
language of how to be big and strong,
powerful, potential and competent,
and with this thought possessing
many of the leading minds of Amer
lea are today giving specific attention
to the creation of some general sys-
tenn Of physical development which
will be broad enough in it's scope Of
application to reach both male and
female, young, middle-aged and those
in later life.
America has pride in being COM
petent in industrial capacity, in finan-
cial strength and in commercial re-
lations. She has pride in progress in
the development of all of the affairs
in which any nation should be inter-
ested, such as it's manufactures, it's
mines and mining, it's Quarries and
quarrying, it's waterways and trans
portation facilities; in fact she has
been expert and capable in assemb-
ling all the things and materials from
which we have grown to our present
position as a splendid nation Of in
genius people.
We can reasonably claim right to
the title of leader in many of the ma
tional and international affairs and
from the progressive disposition Of
the past we might reasonably contem-
plate %perpetuity as a people but with
out some extra precaution, some spe-
cial effort, instead Of continuing a
strong and accomplishing race, we will
become so weakened in our physical
forces as to bring to ourselves the H.
ability Of early degeneration and de-
cay.
To perpetuate the American nation
we must have special resistance
