EXPERIENCE OF SOLDIERS
SIXTY SEVEN YEARS AGO

Pierre S. ID. Oct. 25 Sixty-seven
wears ago on October 10, General
Harney and his soldiers arrived in
Fort Pierre to take possession Of
that former French post in the
name of the United States.
Speaking OF the records of this
cxpdition Dr. Doane Robinson.
state historian, calls attention to
one interesting matter in conncc-
tion with the arrival of the troops
of the United States. The first
night the troops were in camp at
the old fort they turned their
horses loose to Craze. In order to
facilitate the capture of the ami
mails on the following morning a
long rope was attached to each
halter which was allowed to drag.
Durin the night a blizzard came
up which was preceded by fall
of rain. The storm was-furious all
that night and the following day.
When the weather moderated to
such an extent the soldiers could
go in search of their horses they
found each securely anchored by
and enormous weight of gumbo
which had gathered on the. rope
while wet and froze, layer on layer
being added in this way. The
horses were sorely in need Of food
as the gumbo weight had kept
them confined to a limited area
Although hard on the animals it
was probably fortunate for the
soldiers the horses were restrain

Wages \offered in various parts
of the corn belt for corn pickers
are about the same, according to
the farm bureau survey. Men are
offered 4 to IS cents per bushei
plus board and room. A few local
tiles are bidding as high as eight
cents. and these no doubt will get
the first pick of men. The higher
waGes, however, are generally Of
fered where the corn yield is less.
Corn pickers can make good money
at the smaller wage in good corn
The farm bureau believes that
but little sympathy is due to the
laborer who asserts that he cannot
find work, since he can secure a
plenty of jobs on the farm and can
probably save more money at farm
work than at any other kind of
employment.

THE NEXT SPEAKER

Who is going to be the nex'
speaker of the house Of represen
tatives in the next session Of tht
legislature? With the members ol
the legislature not yet elected thi.
might seem to be an odd question
to ask at this time. But it is be
ing asked and furthermore at
tempts are being made to answer
it.
Judging from the talk that i.
going round there are three mer
to whom the honor may fall and il
these three men should be elected
and their chances seem good judg
ing from past performances in
their respective counties. These
three men are George X. Burt Of
Watertown, and f. O. Frescoln Of
Winner and Damon Clark Of Dead
wood. OF these three men Burt
and Frescoln have the best chances
according to those with their fiji
gers on the political pulse.
"Of course they say, 1T isn't
4 good policy to count ones chick
ems before they are hatched. but --
it's all right to mark the eggs
when they are put into the nest.
The place of speaker of the
house is one of the posts Of honor
as well as one of considerable in
Huence on matters Of legislation.
There is usually fight for the
places, there usually being from
three to half dozen who are pos
sibilities and either get into tho
game or get put into it.

THE ONE GREAT
ASSET WAS LACKING

The other day wc/read a story
of an employee who had every
chance possible to make good, but
failed The young man was "a good
workman, knew his work well. but
one day he turned out IA piece of
work for one who complained To
his employer of the poor results
from that particular job. lnves i
cation proved that this workmae
had sighted his job. Instead OF
going back to the Shop to get
what would make his work perfect
he patched up the difficulty. hid
his lazincss and supposed all was
well.
OF course that weak spot in his
job finally showed up and he was
reported His employer dismissed
him, telling him that he didn't
lack skill but lacked character. He
knew better than to do as he did
he could do it right and his en-
ploycr expected it Of him, but he
Sighted his work because his char
acter was weak.
Think. it over. Think of the men
you have known who have faileG
as FARMERS, as hired men, as bank
crs, merchants, lawyers. doctors
and what not because they lacked
ehafaetef. Unless skill and know
ledge in any line is founded upon
character the man is sbound to conc
to greif sooner or later. Characte,
is on the job whether the boss j.
or not. Character plods through
difficulties that might easily b
patched up and hidden for time
Character is the one endurin:
thing worth seeking in an en-
ployee, worth having in an en-
ploycr

RULING ON
INDIAN SCHOOL CHILDREN

Pierre. S. d. Oct. 25 Attorney
General Byron S. Payne. in an OPP
inion Just handed down, holds that
the children of Indians who are
not holders of patents in fee,
which makes them voters and TIA :
payers are not entitled to the
school privileges of the public
schools in which they reside as
are white children.
T. c. Clark, a member of the
Todd county school board. in a
'etter to the attorney general
states that last winter the board
contracted with the United States
Indian office to admit Indian chill
zen 20 the schools of the county
IN the payment of the regular tut
ion fee of 40 cents per pupil per
lay and desires to know if the
board acted within the law in so
doing. He states that many resi-
lcnts of the county refused ~
,cnd their children to the school
With the Indians.
The attorney general holds there
IRE two classes of Indians: those

vileges and rights of other per-
sons as have also those who vol

'ileges as whites. The other class

that school boards have their pow
ers limited by state statute and
have no authority to admit to the
schools of the district non-resi-
lent children as provided by law.
Indians living within the district

within the provisions of the sec

opinion states.

WHERE HAS THE
FARM LNkOREK GONE

Where has the farm laborer
gone? This question is troubling
county agents, farm bureaus and
government employment offices
which have the responsibility of
helping farmers secure men for
corn pickinga and general farm
work. Farmers have been inclined
to criticize labor bureaus for their
inability to supply men.
The South Dakota Farm Bureau
federation has ascertained by sur
vey that the farm laborer is not
in this part of the country Or if
he is, he does not want farm work
The shortage is due partly to the
fact that men have not returned
from northern harvest fields; part
ly because they refuse to work at
wages offered on the farm, salts
factory as they are, and partly be:
cause they can secure work in the
cities. 1t is believed that when
cold weather stops construction
work in the cities more men will
be availiblc for farm work.
j. W. Holmes, director of the
State and Federal Employment ser
vice at Sioux Falls, reports the
corn picking situation is serious:
that he has calls for more than
1900 men and but few men to take
the jobs. j. S. Williams, federal
director of the u S. Employment
Service at st. Paul says the same
difficulty exists in his territory.
G. c. Becker, director of the Lin
coin, Nebr., office reports calls for
several hundred men and only
three or four men per day to be
secured. U. l.. Anderson, superin-
tendent of the Huron office, re-
ports calls from local farmers and
adjoining counties for farm labor
felp, with far from sufficient men
to take the jobs.

ORTIlWESTERN GRANTS
STOCKMEN'S REQUEST

Pierre, S. d. Oct. 25 Western
livestock Shippers who desire to
finish feeding Of western. range
stock at points in the corn belt
and then ship them on to the live
stock markets further east will be
interested in an announcement
made by the South Dakota railroad
commission stating that the Chi
cago and Northwestern railroad
had granted it's request whereby
shipments Of cattle and sheep or
iginating at stations on that line
on and west Of Huron to Oakes
line and west of Huron to Rapid
City may feed in transit at any
intermediate station west Of Rapid
City in South Dakota. Minnesota
and Iowa for a period of not ex-
ceeding one year and then reship
to Chicago, Milwaukee. Cudahy or
Peoria at the through rate from
point Of origin plus 81 cents per
100 pounds.
The request was made by the
South Dakota Board some time ago
at the request Of the western live
stock shippers. The board has just
received notice that the request
has been granted effective Septem-
Der Goth last.

HOT SPRINGS HAS IT'S
SHARE OF TROUBLE

Pierre, S. d., Oct. 25-Hot Springs
seems to have had more than its
share of trouble in keeping in com
munication with the outside
world this past few months. Dur
ing the summer cloudbursts wash
ed out fourteen railroad bridges
on the line running. into Hot
Springs. Now the large wooden
bridge across the Cheyenne river
burned last week and Hot Springs
is having trouble getting people
in and out except over the rail
road.
However, the town hes not given
UP and has raised funds for as
sisting the county in putting ir
another bridge. One of the count,
commissioners said: 1--WE may be
badly bent but not broken and we
are going to have a new bridge
soon..
The bridge burned withstood the
terrible floods of last summer tho
it was just a wooden bridge. 1t
was put in by the state bridge de-
partment to give the people of the
county cheap but efficient struc-
ture.
The pioneer-review. [volume] (Philip, Haakon County, S.D.) 1920-current, 1922-10-26

The Rural Credit Board is criti-
cized, because it carries at the pre-
sent time some overdue interest
and does not enforce collection by
foreclosure of its loans. 1t may be
observed that this is exactly the
same policy as the one being fol-
lowed by, the large insurance com
panies, other large private farm
loan companies operating in South
Dabota. All of them carry delin-
oucnt interest, and do what they
can to encourage borrowers to pay
-. The wisdom of such policy
at the present time should be SO
apparent as not to require argu-
ment in it's support.

POTATOES GOOD FOR
SHEEP, SWINE, POULTRY

Gull potatoes may be fed in small
quantities to sheep in about the
same was as roots are fed to thi,
class Of animals, advises the Stat
college extension service. The
daily allowance shoull be approx
nately one to three pounds per
lmature sheep Potatoes should BE-
lsed as a succulcnt feed. together
With regular ration Of .legumc
hay and cheap roughage.
For feeding swine, potatoes
should be cooked and fed with
middlings, tankage: or fishmeal in
selffeedcrs 1t is especially impor-
tant that the potatoes be supple
mented by these protein feeds for
growing shoats. The sclf-feeder
method is efficient as means Of
having the pigs fed potatoes and
protein foods in correct proper
tiOn.
Before being fed to fowls, po-
tatoes should be boiled or steamed
and are fed to bet advantage when
are quite fattening. they should
mixed with mash. Since potatoes
,e fed in limited quantities, pre-
ferably to laying hens or growing
hickens, and should be used in
connection with other foods.
One hundred hens will consume
,bout 10 pounds of cooked pota-
soes daily, and these potatoes can
be used to replace corn meal in
the poultry mash. If so used, an
equal weight of potatoes and mash
may be mixed together. A laying
mash for this purpose may be
made of meat scrap, | part mid
dlings, 2 parts bran and 4 parts
Of potatoes, by weight.

Excessive freight cost is now re-
garded by road builders as perhaps
the heavist cost burden limiting good
roads construction. In consequence,
engineers are giving greater attention
than ever to the utilization of local
materials. Wyoming good roads
boosters have recently given promi-
nence to the slogan Wyoming mate
rails for Wyoming roads," They
point to the new and considerable
supply of asphaltic petroleum being
developed in that territory and to ex-
tensive local supplies of gravel and
stone that are available all along the
route and that are peculiarly adapted
to use with local asphalts. The same
considerations hold where other types
of pavement are made practicable by
the low cost of local materials. High

ENJOYS from the California Let
tuce Union, Jap-controlled, visited the
lettuce growers around Boise, Nam
pa, Caldwell and Payette and submit
ted contracts by which the union
agreed to buy the lettuce from thirty
acre tracts which each farmer was
asked to plant.
Farmers objected that they could
not care for thirty acres of lettuce.
Then it was explained that cheap Jap
anese labor would be imported from
California to care for the crop.
"An outcry Immediately arose from
men familiar with the methods OF
Japanese infiltration in California and
Washington.
Accuse Mormons.
Public meetings were held at
which the Japanese scheme was de-
nounced, and the Mormon chiefs were
openly accused of being in league
with the Toxic government in trying
to arrange the Japanese settlement.
"A split arose in the Idaho Farm
Bureau federation. President Shearcr
presented his resignation, which final
lily was accepted, and the federation
was reorganized with an executive
committee of five members, four Of
them being from the Mormon coun-
ties of southern Idaho.
"Shearer then started backfire
against the federation, claiming tina,
the change in control was brought
about unconstitutionally because. due
notice was not given and also because
he was still officially head of the fed.

been acted upon when H. G. Peckllam

to fight the Japanese plan, and the
Union Pacific railroad also agreed to
finance the erection of lettuce packing
stations along its lines. The lettuce
growers are organizing to operat,

RAIN SAVES BOISE.

Rain saved the Boise high school
baseball team from an almost certain
drubbing Saturday at Boise at the
hands of the Caldwell nine. Only two
innings were played and at the end
of the second stanza Caldwell was
leading, 20. The downpour which
had threatened from the start Of the
game sent players and spectators
scurrying to cover and made any fur.
Their attempt to conclude the game
impossible. High school batters as
usual had no trouble with Boise twirl
ers while Field promised to deliver
his usual first class game. The game
will probably be played off later in tho
season.
