Securities Are
Found In Field

White Lake, May "a package
containing $3.50 in government bonds
and over $1,000 I'm notes, after be-
ing mysteriously missing for over a
year, has been recovered in a most
unexpected manner, being found in
a field on the Edinger farm, in Au-
rora county.
Last fall while Ernest Carlson was
assisting in the work of threshing
ON the Edinger farm he lost the pack
age of bonds and notes. He had
placed the coat containing the notes
and bonds under the seat of buggy
standing in the field, and when he
went for the coat he discovered that
the notes and bonds were missing.
All the members of the threshing
crew submitted to a search, but the
valuable package was not found.
The other day Fred Edinger was
plowing in the field when he noticed
a bunch of papers, which were about
to be covered by the plow. He in
vestigated, and the package proved
to be the bonds and notes lost by
Carlson.
They were little damaged by the
elements. Edinger was given a re-
ward of 500 for returning the bonds
and notes to Carlson.

ELEVATORS FACE
SERIOUS CRISIS
MANY CO?OPERATIvE CONCERNS
OF SOUTH DAKOTA HAVE
DIFFICULT PROBLEMS.

Pierre, May 9.1The situation in
which farmers elevator companies
throughout the state find themselv-
es this spring, following the irreg-
ular market conditions of the last
nine months, is said to be serious.
according to Frank M. Byrne, state
commissioner of agriculture.
Nearly all of these companies,
Mr.. Byrne says, are fighting to carry
themselves through until the next
harvest, with the prospect that many
will not be able to survive unless
outside assistance is obtained. A
few have already failed, he declared
Recently the department received
letter from a Lake county man
ager of a farmers elevator, who de-
ciared nearly all the cooperative
companies in that county were fac
ing ruin unless assistance could be
secured soon.
Failure of a large number oi
these elevators would be most dis
astrous for the communities in which
they are located as well as for the
state as a whole" Mr.. Byrne de-
clared.
He announced that the department
while unable to assist financially
would direct its efforts toward
bringing about some sort OF relief
and by aiding in the establishment
of more efficient business methods
to avoid a duplication of the present
crisis.

ORGANIZE To
GRO " MELONS
FARM OF HUGHES COUNTY
WILL ENGAGE In BUSINESS
ON LARGER SCALE.

Pierre, May 9.--The melon grow
ers of the DeGray and Canning
country of this county has formed a
melon association for the purpose of
pushing the product of this part of
the state. Guy Grandle has been
made president, j. r. Hausman, vice
president, and George Bowman, sec
.retary treasurer of the association.
This proposition was taken up
among the melon raisers of that part
of the county by the Pierre Kiwanis
club which will assist the farmers of
the two great melon raising sections
of the state in their work of putting
the product on the market.
The association decided on pro-
ducing a uniform quality of melons
this season, specializing on canta-
loupe, out also raising watermelons
as well. The raisers have pooled in
the purchase of seed and have de-
cided on the famous Hoodoo variety
for cantaloupe production and on
Tom Watsons for water melons. II
is expected to make Rosseau the
principal shipping point for the dis
trict.
The farmers in the DeGray and
Canning vicinity have been raising
an excellent quality of melons foi
many years, which experts say arS
the equal, if not superior, to the
Rockyford of Colorado in flavor
Some shipping has been done but
not Systematically and this is the
first attempt to push the product
outside of this immediate vicinity

What chance does any sufferer take when Rheuma is guaranteed to ban ish rheumatism. lumbago, gout and kidney ailments, or money back?
 Why not investigate this offer? Talk to Clark & Brainerd Company about it. Rheuma must drive rheuma1c poison from the system, bring swol- len joints back to normal. and relieve all agony, or it costs nothing.
 People so crippled with rheuma- tism that they could not walk have been absolutely freed from the iron grasp of the demon, rheumatism, with the Rheuma treatment A few hours after the first dose Rheuma begins to dissolve the uric. acid and drive it from the body through the natural channels.
