STRAWBERRIES CAN BE
SUCCESSFULLY GROWN HERE

Mrs. |. Kaufman on last Satur-
day brought the Pioneer force very
liberal mess Of home grown straw
berries that certainly were fine. Mrs.
Kaufman is very enthusiastic about
berry growing in this county and Won
ders why more of our farmers do not
set out patch Of berries. About
nine wears ago when Mr.. and Mrs.
Kaufman first moved on their home
stead about five miles south of Wood,
about the first thing they did was to
set out bed Of everbearing straw
berries and they did well right from
the start and have supplied them with
all Of this luscious fruit they could
use each year. 1t is a wonder that
some of our farmers have not engaged
in the berry raising business on a
more extensive scale-they certainly
can be grown here successfully, and
they certainly would be money-mak-
ing crop, for there is ample demand
here for this luscious fruit and there
is absolutely no comparison between
the home grown berry and those ship
ped in from the southland. This year
they shipped in a whole carload Of
berries to Winer and disposed of them
in twenty-four hours. They brougl
a good price, too. Yes, berry culture
will pay big in this county and some
day somebody will realize the oppor-
tunitv and grab it,

NOW DON'T GET EXCITED

Sundays Sioux City Journal, car
ried the following brief dispatch from
Rapid City, S. D., that may be OF IN
terest to our readers: "A permanent
railway survey is being made between
Newell to Phillip by the Northwestern
Railway Company, which bought q
rigth of way from Newell to Redowl
in 19l1." The latest dope on rail,
road extension matters is that the
Winner line is to be extended to Phil
lip and Newall, and that in all pro
bability actual construction work viii
begin next year, and that building
would begin simultaneously from
Winner and from Newell. We might
tell you more of the most recent rail
road extension Yumors, but as they are
in the main mostly rumors, without
much foundation, we do not want tt
Get our readers unduly excited over
this matter. However we do look
for some real developments in this
extension matter within the next
twelve months.

HONEY PHILOSOPHY FOR 1922

Every now an then we hark back
to the old copy book and remember
the lines on the top. Who forgets
Example is Better Than Precept"
which means "Teach by doin' things,
not by sayin' things" Here's a
whole bunch of us acting wise as owls
teachin' the young what to do, tellin
'em all sorts of things they don t
believe because they see we're not
carryin 'em out ourselves. The rea-
son we don't carry 'em out is be-
cause we've grown old an that s the
greatest crime of all. Every man
seems to wish he could start out in
life with the knowledge an expert
ence of middle age. Why not We
can't get the experience of age in
child life but we can drag back the
simplicity an truth Of child life in
the middle age Mohamet can always
60 to the mountain.

THAT TOURIST CAMP GROUND

On Monday We received comuni-
cation from Congressman William
Williamson inclosing a letter he had
received from the Department Of the
Interior, wherein it stated that the
Department was ready to give lease
on the northeast ten-acre tract on
the Government reserve Just south
Of town to the people here for the
establishment of tourist camp
ground. We Immediately wrote the
congressman, asking him to close the
matter up, and as soon as we get the
lease meeting will be called and a
dav set for the purpose of cleaning
up the new camp ground and decid-
ing on what improvements can be
made this year. This is an ideal
spot for camp ground and can be
made one of the beauty spots oil the
county with a united effort on the
part of our people and systematic
program. Let's all get behind this
tourist camp ground and park pro
position and do something for our.
selves, onr community and the auto

DR.. STILL IN BAD

The first of this week a story came
60 town that DR.. Still of White River
had gotten in bad, and had been ar
rested, charged with the crime OF
rape. We were unable to get what we
considered the real truth of this story
and had practically decided not to
mention the affair at all in our col
umns. He had a preliminary hearing
before Justice burlington and was
bound over to the circuit court under
Il 600 cash bond, which he furnished
Yesterday morning another story
came to town stating that Wednesday
evening about nine or ten O'Clock, q
brother of the outraged girl and her
brother-in-law were walking on the
,trets of White River, when the
brother pointed out DR.. Still and the
brother-in law is said to have begun
shooting. Several bullets hit the doc.
tor, one entering hes whist, another
in his leg, and others in various parts
of his body, according to report. The
man who did the shooting made good
his escape and DR.. Still is expected to
recover, according to the story we
get. 1t is a dirty piece of scandal
from what We can gather, and we dc
not care to make any extended com.
enmt on the case until we can get
more of the real facts.

FIND THE STOLEN FORDS

Last Tuseday Deputy Sheriff Jones
of Tripp county was following up a
clue he had ON the Fords that were
stolen at Winner week ago last Sun
dav. He evidently had good hunch,
for up north on the Big White river
near the Lee Anderson place, in a
deep ravine, he found one of the mis-
sing ears, and also the tires and parts
that had been taken from the car that
was dismantled near Witten and had
previously been found. There were
only three cars taken instead of six
as we stated in our last issue. We
understand that the officers have a
pretty good idea where the third ear
is located. and probably have it by
this time. So far no arrests have been
made, bat the officers have a pretty
good idea who did the job, and there
NAV be en- arrest in the very near
future. X ErisA. ta4& L
