THE GROWTH OF JACKSONVILLE

The Florida Times Union, speaking
OF the growth of Jacksonville, says:
While talking about the way in which
Florida towns and cities are growing
it is never right to overlook the city
of Jacksonville, for the metropolis
of the state has not Jagged. The re-
ports from the Office of building inspec-
tors show that during the month of
June there were 324 permits issued
for new buildings and improvements
and repairs. The work undertaken in
June was of estimated value of $685.
|613. an amount in every way credit
able and showing the building spirit
to prevail here as elsewhere. In the
summary the fact that 60 of the per-
.mits were for new dwellings is most
satisfactory. The only big permit TAX
en- out during June was for a hos
pital to cost $4,000. 1t is interest
ing to note that 40 new private gar
ages were built last month. indicat-

Moses Folsom.
Usually such tributes are reserved

are written has passed from this vale

Mr., Folsom has held many respon-
sible positions in different capacities
with the State Marketing Bureau
which is the means by which he slaves

voted to is writing about Florida. For
this he gets nothing but praise. such
as this Certainly he deserves a more
substantial reward, for he has been
worth more to Florida in aiding it's
development than can be estimated in
dollars.
Mr.. Folsom has held many respon-
sihle positions and has written SOW

The breweries that made Milwaukee
famous had no other thought but that
they would go into bankruptcy, but
instead they are turning out choco-

places operated as saloons would long
remain vacant but they were quickly
occupied by other business enterprises

NEILETTE COUNTY PIONEER BOYS and GIRLS NATURAL RESOURCE CONSERVATION
and THRIFT CLUB.

We have decided to organize the
boys and girls of Mellette county in
a new club that will take up work
along entirely new lines. The idea of
the club Is TO conserve the natural
resources that are found in this coun-
ty and to convert the various kinds
Of Wild fruits that grow here so pro
lilically, and in a measure 60 to waste
each year, into marketable %jellies,
Jams, juices, marmalades, etc.
Ia brief, here is our plan: Any
boy OF girl residing in Mellette coun-
ty between the ages of ten and eight
cen years may become a member of
the Mcllette County Pioneer Boys
and Girls Thrift Club, by making
application for membership and com
plying with the following simple rules:
Each member of the Club must
agree to gather all the wild fruit i'll
season that they conveniently can,
and they themselves to make up this
fruit into jams, %jellies, preserves, ETC.,
according to instructions, and all
fruits so gathered and put up will
have to be put up in uniform glass
containers properly labeled.
1t is also proposed to gather wild
hops and prepare it for marketing i'll
two-ouncc packages, provided the pro-
per data can be secured for its proper
picking and packing.
Each contestant must purchase their
own sugar for preserving purposes
and also the glass containers.
Each contestant must agree to do
all the work connected with the gath
cring of the fruits and their prepara-
ton, without the assistance of their
elders. They may ask for instruc-
ton, but the actual work must be
performed by them.
Each contestant must report to the
Mellette County Pioneer not later
than October l, how much fruit they
have gathered, and how many quarts,
pints or half pints of jams, %jellies,
marmalades, buffers and juices they
have prepared, also what surplus they
might have to sell.
To the contestant putting up the
largest quantity of fruit, and who,
according to the judges, has the best
jams, %jellies, marmalades, buffers,

and THRIFT CLUB.

juices, etc, the Mellette County Pho
neer will award q silver loving cup
suitably engraved, and such winner
Of the cup shall be designated as the
champion Natural Resource Conscrva-
ZIONIST of Mellettc county. However,
the winner of the cup must defend
his or her title to the cup the sue
ceeding year, and unless he or she
shall win the cup again, or twice IN
succession, they shall surrender the
cup to the new winner. When the
cup has been won twice in succession
by the same boy or girl the cup shall
become the sole property of such two-
time winner.
Each contestant must also agree
to exhibit at least three containers
Of each and every kind Of Jelly, jam,
marmalade, butter or juices they put
up during the season, at the annual
meeting Of the Club, to be held at
Wood, South Dakota, at a date to be
designated later, and also to file n
report of their activities in writing
at that time, properly attcsted, Civ
ing the number Of containers filled
during the season and their net con
tents, so the judges may properly
award the prize.
The McIlcttc County Pioneer agrees
to make an effort to do the following:
First, to procure all the necessary
sugar and glass containers for the
activities of the Club members, at
actual cost.
Second, to procure an expert demon
stratOr from the Agricultural Col
lege at Brookings, S. d., to visit Mel
lette county during the wild fruit sea-
son to hold schools of instruction and
give demonstrations of making j%ellles,
jams, buffers, marmalades, juices, etc,
from wild fruits. These schools and
demonstrations to be held at various
points in the county, and wherever
the Club membership is sufficient to
warrant.
Third, as thrift is one Of the OBJ
jects Of Club membership, it is desired
that each Club member, as far as pos
sible, earn the money necessary to buy
the sugar necessary to cary on the
work, the Mellette County Pioneer
will give each member Of the Club an

of boys and girls club work, is Of

will II them in ample time. In
the meantime make your entry as

with a determination to do your very

The Mellete County Pioneer Boys
Acre Corn Growing Club promises to
be one of the largest and best in the
year 1922 that we have yet had III
this county. This contest is open to
any boy in Mellette county not under
ten and not over eighteen years of
age, who resides on a farm and whose
parents or guardian will consent Ill
writing to set aside one or two acres
of land, as the case may be, for the
sole purpose Of growing this contest
corn. The contestant must agree to
plant at least one acre OF corn, seed
to be furnished by us free of charge
at our Office in Wood, provided con-
testant has not previously been Il
member Of our corn club, in which
case he must provide his own seed this
year, to all new entrants IN the club
we will furnish sufficient seed to plant
one acre of corn. The contestant
must in each case agree to pillow, plant
and cultivate this one acre and to
harvest same before frost, to exhibit
at least ten ears Of corn from each
acre SO planted at the annual corr
show and club convention to be held
in Wood at a date to be announced
later. The ten ears so exhibited to
become the property Of the Pioneer.
At the time of holding the annual
corn show and convention each con-
testant must also file a complete re-
port of when he plowed his field,
when he planted the seed, when he
narrowed and cultivated it, and when
he harvested the crop, giving
the actual number Of bushels Of
good sound corn SO harvested from
his acre. The latter statement must
be attested by at least two disinter-
ested parties.
The regular contest corn this year,
as heretofore, will be Rosebud King,
and we have arranged for an ample
supply of tested seed to supply all
new entrants this year.
Here is an extra inducement:
Through the cooperation of Mr.. S. Il.
Langley we have arranged to get a
supply Of Reds Yellow Dent seed
corn this year and we will supply each
of the contest boys sufficient seed OF
Reds Yellow Dent to plant n acre,
thus each boy will have seed this year
for two acres of corn, and of course
will have to bring ten ears OF each
variety to the annual corn show and
club convention. Reds Yellow Dent
is one of the standard varieties of
the country and has standing in both
the state and the nation, and If the
boys produce corn good enough OF
this variety we will try and have the
prize Reds Yellow Dent exhibited
at the State Fair. AS an extra in
ducement Mr.. Langley offers a fine
registered Chester White gilt to thI
