CROP FIGURES
MAKE SHOWING
SUMMARY OF CROP VALUES In
STATES CONGRESSIONAL
DISTRICTS SHOW PROS
PERITY.

Pierre, May 26-The Summary of
crop values for the three congress
sional districts of the state which
has been prepared by the state inn
migration department, indicates, of
course, much higher farm average
for the section east of the Missouri
river, as there is much larger area
per farm under cultivation east of
the river than west of the stream.
For the first congressional dis
trict, covering the southeast counties
of the state, the average crop value
per farm is put at $5,345.50. hTe
highest average value per farm in
that section goes to Lincoln county,
with an average of $6,062.35.
In the second congressional dis
trict, covering the counties of the
northeast portion of the state, the
average farm production value runs
higher than it does in the southeast
ern counties, that district making a
showing of $5,605 per farm. The
county with the highest average per
farm is Sphinx. which is the highest
of any county in the state, with an
average farm value of production at
$7,535.50. Brown is close sec
ond. at $7,022.37. both of these
counties being ahead of any county
in the first district.
In the third district, covering the
country west of the Missouri river,
the average farm value is $2,199.80.
The highest average for any county
in that district is Lyman, with an
average of $4,021.17, this bringing
it up to near the average of several
of the east river counties.
While the west river country has
for years been looked upon as dis
tinctly stock country, with the east
river section developing more into
a grain growing section, as a mat
ter of fact several of the east river
counties show much larger valua-
tion of live stock than any of the
west river counties can show.
This is especially true in the hog
raising sections of the state, where
they have for years specialized in
hogs and corn, and have run their
values up to high figures along that
line.

today on the complaint of Deputy
Fire Warden Walker. They are
chraged with destroying insurde

Cured about two weeks ago at the
time of the flood that visited this
territory. hTe property damage was
estimated at several thousand dol

Washington, ID c., May 26-Nor-
NAL temperatures almost everywhere
except in the south, did much during
the week ending Tuesday to aid the
farmers, the weather bureau report
d in its weekly weathr and crop re-
viw. Growth of vegetation was him
dered somewhat in western states by
insufficient rain.
Conditions as reported favored a
continuation Of the satisfactory
growth made during the recent
weeks by winter wheat. Rain is
still needed in Iowa while the crop
was described as becoming weedy in
western Kansas and stands were
thin in many fields in Nebraska.
Cool and cloudy weather in the
spring wheat belt was favorable for
that crop, the review said, adding
that considerable Improvement was
reported from South Dakota as re-
suit of additional rains and germina-
tion was satisfactory in Montana.

SALVATION ARMY'S PLAN LENDS
FAVORABLE ASSISTANCE
TO UNFORTUNATES.

Sioux Falls, May 26-Of the 1000
Aalvation army rescue homes in the
United States last year 81 per cent
were placed in positions of respect
enabling them to earn their own liv-
ing and relieving the community of
the burden of their support. Mrs.
Mary T. Wishman, territorial repre-
sentative of the Salvation army, fur
ther stated that through these homes
young unmarried mothers were help
ed to find ways and means of sup
porting themselves and their babies
without becoming a burden on the
country. Through the assistance of
fered girls they are taught to be
come useful and yirtuous members
of society instead of becoming a
menace.
No girl is too far down in the
social scale to be taken into thc
homes and no girl is ever turned
away. Mrs. Wishman in explaining
the workings of the homes, said
that the babies born there are made
to play an important part in the re.
generation of tehir little mothers
Mother love and the shelter and
help afforded by the homes restores
the girls courage to face the world,
esaid Mrs. Wishman 1.-THE army

are permitted to leave until their fu.

Mrs. Wishman is in the city work

ganizations of the city and present

| ords of South Dakota she states il
is shown that large number of girl:
are lost each year and that the Sal
vation army proposes to correct this
condition by the building of rescue
home and maternity hospital here.

Pierre May 26-While the dis

General Daugherty. the observance

The original intention of the act

these certificates of citizenship bs
issued and sent out.,,' Mr.. aPyne ad,

spirit of the law by observing Me
