Growing Better
Registered Cattle, Horses,
Hogs and She ep Increase
in State; Less Disease in
1922.
BY Mildred L. Yule

tASSlSldIt EullOr, state tOlleBe)
Farmers have come to realize more
and more during the last 10 years
that the livestock industry brings
steady profit and quick turnover when
cash is needed. The raising Of hogs,
cattle or sheep on the farm has grad
ually become an important business,
and stock raisers find themselves con
stantly facing this question: How
car we improve our herds, make our
animals better and thus bring in
greater protits?"
livestock Improvement projects car
ried on under the direction Of the ex-
tension service at State college have
helped the farmer to answer this queS-
ton by actual work on the farms and
by interesting stock breeders in de
veloping p%urebred animals.
During 1922 extension workers as
sisted South Dakota farmers in secur
ing 2,5S2 registered animals, including
hogs, sheep, cattle and horses. More
than LOO high grade bcef and dairy
COWS were also secured. Sows made
up the greatest number of registered
animals obtained last year, totaling
more han 1000. Registered beef COWS
came second, numbering 237.
Under this same project extension
workers supervised or assisted in
treating and testing 277, 204 farm ami
mails, including $4,000 treated for
blackleg and 10000 tested for tuber-
culosis. Mare than POO, 900 hogs were
vaccinated for cholera and agents as
sisted 249 farmers in controlling con
tagious abortion. In 1922 only 96S
animals were given anthrax treatment,
while in 1921 treatment for this one
disease reached 2,310 animals, show
ing that continued and persistent work
helped to control the spread of this
contagion. Need for scabies treat
ment also decreased last year, when
only 1925 animals were treated,
in 1921 the number was double those
figures.

ton OF the Robert +. Kerr chapter Of
the Order of DeMolay. A delegation
Huron chapter under the direction of
George NJ. Hill, exemplified the de-
grees and initiated the large class of
~Brookings boys. numbering seventy
two. The work of the Huron chapter
was splendidly done, making a deep
impression not only upon the candi-
dates but upon the large number Of
Masons present. The new order Is
being sponsored in Brookings by the
Knights Templar and is named after
Robert f. Kerr, who was one Of the
first to promote the local organization.

brief but excellent address to the can
didates and visitors. He stated that
the DeMOlay provided constructive
outlet for the energy OF the young
man between the Boy Scout period and
the time Of their majority-a period
localities. The need for the order has
been evidenced in it's extremely rapid
growth. While the order is not yet
three years Of g there are now more
than eight hundred chapters institut-
ed in the United States, the Robert F..
Kerr chapter being the eleventh in
the state OF South Dakota.

State isAccused
Of Stealing Fish
Ire of Minnesota Aroused by
Transplanting Fish from
Lake Hendricks in Near
by Lakes.

When the good people of Lake Hend
ricks, Mimi, read in the Register last
week that fish were being tra~nSplanted
from Lake Hendricks to stock up Lake
lakewood, they became Immediately
aroused and a veritable hornets nest
of Indignation resulted. The difficulty
arises from the fact that Lake Hend-
rickS lies in two states. The largest
part of this body of water is within
the borders of Lake Hendricks town
ship in the extreme northeast corner of
B~rookings county, the remainder lies
in Minnesota.
After quoting the article from the
Register, the Lake Hendricks Pioneer
in its publication the following day,
had this to say
This is certainly a piece or Consuln-
mate nerve and will not go uncnal-
lenged. For many years the people on
the Minnesota side Of Lake Hendricks
which is an interstate body of water,
have stood for the injustices permitted
by the conflicting laws of South Da,
kota in relation to fish, but the above
is the limit.
Minnesota has been stocking the lake
yearly while South Dakota has done
nothing. The laws Of our neighbor
also permit taking game fish five
inches shorter than we do, and a very
great many anglers who have enjoyed
the excellent advantages here have
not been in the least particular about
the line when taking the smaller fish
Several years ago the abuses became
so fragrant that a protective associa'
ton was organized in Hendricks and
the expenses Of improving the lake
and paying the cost Of transporting
fish for stocking purposes has been
borne by the people Of this community
Now South Dakota is taking our full
grown game fish and dumping them in
mud holes.
The Hendricks Game and Fish Pro
tective League has taken the matter
up with Carlos Avery, state commits
sioner, and through him is appealing
to State Game Warden Hedrick o.
South Dakota.

Postal Receipts Show
Gain Over Last Year

The postal receipts of the Brookings
post office for the year ending Deem.
Der 81, 1921 were 29,621.55 and for
the year ending December 81, 1922
amounted to $31, 1894, showing an
increase of $2,377.S9, according to r.
b.. Breed, postmaster.
The money order section also shows
considerable increase in the total
amount Of money orders issued at this
office. The year ending December 81,
1921, $70,S37.76 in money orders were
issued, and the year ending December
81, 1922, brings the total amount Of
money orders issued up to $S4, 667 As,
making an increase Of $13, S29.69. This
does not include the business handled
at Station A, of the college.
The number of parcels insured dur
ing the year ending December 81, 1922,
indicates an increase of HOG over the
previous year. The number of parcels
dispatched from this office as ordinary
mail is a much larger number in pro-
portion to the number that are insured.
There is also a marked increase Of
parcel post mail received at this office
for delivery during the past year.
The month of January this year
shows IN increase of $500 in postal re-
ceipts over the same month last year.
If this percentage is maintained
throughout the year, the BroOkings
postoffice will reach the volume of
business required Of a first class post
office. In any event it will not be
many years before the Brookings office
will be advanced to first class.
