DECIDES POINTS
SCHOOL STATUTE
ATTORNEY GENERAL PAYNE
MAKES RULING ON SEVERAL
MATTERS OF IMPORTANCE.

Pierre, Sept 26-That pupils
paying tuition in high schools must
be counted as well as those who do
not make such payments, when the
school attendance is used as a basis
for fixing tuition for the following
year, is the holding of Attorney
General Payne on inquiry from Flan-
dreau
Apparently in that school, as is
the general rule in the high schools
of the different towns of the state.
country pupils come in and pay tut
tion for the privilege of attendance.
1t was evidently desired to exclude
such from the count of attendance
when the same was to be taken as
basis for fixing tuition for the
next year, but the holding of the at
torney general is that this may not
be done; that the iaw requires total
sttendances as the basis, and on just
what terms this attendance is Sc
cured has nothing to do with the
figures in making the estimates.
The right of the board of educa~
ton of an independent school dis
trict to lease building for physi-
cal training of the pupils of the
school comes to the attorney gener-
al from Bryant Apparently the
board of education leased the town
hall and fitted it out for the physical
training and made few repairs on
| the structure
1t is held that they have this right
under the powers of the boards of
education of such districts to estab-
lish and maintain course of physi-
cal instruction; and the further pow
ers granted to such boards to pro-
vide and maintain any necessary
| equipment and property for school
work; that the board may agree to
repair and maintain property secur-
ed for school purposes when the
same is given in consideration as a
part o fthe lease price is also held
to be valid.
That while May / is fixed as the
| dates Afor valuation of general prop
erty, and as the basis on which
assessments are made, does not in
the opinion of Attorney General
Payne in any way affect the matter
of assessment of poll taxes. In the
case which was presented certain
persons were asking for a rebate OF
poll taxes on the plea that the per-
son so assessed did not reach the le-
gal age until after May /.
The holding is that if the legal
age was reached any time prior to
the levy of the poll tax no rebate
may be allowed and that the date
fixed for general assessment oi
property in no way rules in the mat
ter of poll tax levise.

Vermilion, Sept. 26-Good prog
ress is being made by an Omaha,
Neb., construction company in put
ting in revertment work on the Ne
braska side of the Missouri river, op-
posite eVrmilion, near the county
line between Knox and Cedar coun-
ties, for the purpose of preventing
the waters of the big Muddy" from
eating away any more farms along
that portion of the river.
The process is that of hydraulic
ally sinking immense concrete piers
in the river, to which trees are fast
ened with strong wire cables. hTe
sand washing in against these re-
tards form bar, and in a short time
the action of the river in the erosion
of the banks protected by these re-
tards ceases and the accretion restor-
es the land that has been washed
away by the river and forms a perm
anent bank.
In the work the Omaha construc-
ton company utilizes large river
steamer, which tows two 9O-foot
barges loaded with machinery and
materials for revertment work, The
operations of the company are being
watched closely by farmers ia gem
eral along both the South Dakota
and Nebraska sides of the river, and
If the plan is as successful as now
appears to be the case it is probable
arrangements will be made for put
ting in the reyertment work for dis
tances of many miles on both sides
of the Missouri river.
The point where the revertment
work is being put in is at one of the
| most dangerous points along the en-
tire Missouri river which, during the
past few years, has cut great gaps
| in the banks on both the South Da-
kota and Nebraska sides of the
stream and carried away many thou,
sands of acres of the most valuable
farm land in the northwest. 1t is
believed the new plan of revert
ment will prevent further erosion oi
the banks and at the same time re-
claim much of the land which has
been washed away by the accretion
process made possible by this plan
of revertment.

Farmers Buy
Livestock Herds

Doland, Sept. ga number of
the farmers of the Doiand district
are beginning TO realize that they
are not getting adequate returns
from their exclusive grain crops.
Both land owners and tenants are
said to have discovered that they
are falling behind financially by
placing their exclusive dependency
upon the raising of grain.
AS result of this condition some
of them already are purchasing live
stock to place on their farms and
will devote a greater part of their
attention to the raising of live stock
and the dairy industry.
This is believed to be the solu-
tion of the problem which has been
confronting them.
