MADE A GOOD HAUL

Sheriff Chris Bum, Z. A. Brodboll
and Lou Barton of White River, and
NJ H. Weed of Wood spent Monday
night at the Paul Meyer ranch about
twenty miles northeast Of Wood. They
had receivde information that the har-
ness and saddle that had been stolen
from Mr.. Weed some time ago was
at this place and their mission was to
recover the stolen property, and in
this they succeeded and brought back
the harness and saddle with them, b>
much to their surprise they also found
twenty-six quarts of hooch, which
they confiscated, but no arrests were
made. One John Waugh, who some
time ago was captured with a guam
tity of hooch in the west end of the
county, and who plead guilty before
Judge Burch and who was hired out to
Paul Meyer to earn his fine, is sup
posed to be the owner of the new sup.
ply of hooch just captured, and prob
ably is also the one guilty of stealing
the harness and saddle, but the Off
GERS were unable to capture this man
in fact, did not see him. The chances
are that when he is captured the Judge
will not be quite so lenient with him.

BOOSTERS RETURN FROM
THOUSAND MILE TOUR

The Frontier Days boosters returnec
from their big l000-mile booster trip
last Saturday, practically day behind
their schedule. They held to their
schedule remarkably we'll until Friday,
when they tied up for the night at
Bonesteel, having fallen behind in
their schedule, and they finished their
itinerary Saturday. 1t was hard
trip and the bunch was pretty tired
when they passed through here, but
they had remarkable trip and were
well received and highly entertained
wherever they went. At Omaha they
put on a booster performance in
park and were guests of the CONNER
cial Club at a banquet. They were
also banqueted at Sioux Falls, Sioux
City, Council Bluffs, Fremont and
Norfolk. Everywhere they were given
big welcome, and they did a good
job Of advertising the big Frontier
DAYS show to be given at White River
August 7-S-9-10, and incidentally they
rave Mellctte county and the Rose
bud country a lot of publicity, and got
thousands to talking about this partic-
ular section of the country. At Nor
folk the Cowboy Band, the Indian
dancing and talks by Col. Jordan and
others were broadcast over the radio,
Thursday evening. 1t was without
doubt one of the biggest publicity
campaigns ever attempted by so small
& community as White River, and 1t
will do a lot of real good. We pre-
dict that as a result of this extensive
booster trip the the Frontier Days
show at White River this year will
draw the largest crowd ever assembled
H. this county and it is going to tax
the ability Of the folks at the county
seat to care for the crowds. 1t is to
be hoped that they will not run into
another such streak of bad weather
as they did last year. All such adver-
tising stunts as this booster trip help
to attract the attention Of people to
the Rosebud country and we can easily
accomodate several thousand more
people here. We need more popula.
ton, more real honest -to-gosh farmers
to help develop this, the richest sec
ton OF the great state of South Dakota

AS OTHERS SEE US

We have Just returned from a short
trade excursion into that fascinating
part Of South Dakota. The "West
of-the-river" country has something
about it which always makes a visit
stick in ones memory. 1t proved a
profitable as we'll as pleasurable ex-
perience, and we can personally affirm
the good things we have been hearing
about that magnificent country. The
time cannot be far away when the
Rosebud will be due for an influx
of immigrants and a. substantial
growth, for it is not possible that such
country can remain undiscovered
much longer There are thousands Of
acres Of good land to be had for TWEEN.
ty to thirty-five dollars an acre, and
this land will produce as much as any
in the state. We have just been look
ing at those crops. More railroads
and better highways are needed, but
this is matter of population only.
We acknowledge the present and
future trade possibilities from a
iobber's standpoint astonished US,
and we must admit to having Cover
looked a bet" We are making ar.
rangements for representation and for
our own part expect to make an earn
est effort to live down the accusation
that the eastern part Of South Dako-
ia does not know how the other half
lives. We had this put up to US a
number of times, always accompanied
by the statement that "The Rosebud"
was the best part of South Dakota.
The facts are that the Missouri
river with its boiling ten-mile current
is largely responsible for this condi-
ton. 1t has been one of the worst en-
emies Of Sioux Falls and good friend
to our sister jobbing points in Iowa
and Nebraska. We feel that the
bridge building program now being
arranged is one of the greatest things
that ever happened to South Dakota.
We are very glad that the first one

While down at Rosebud the other
dav, one of the younger Indians who
lives up IN the Cody neighborhOod,
came to us and began talking about
the possibilities Of alfalfa. He
seemed to be greatly interested in the
culture of this money making plant,
and he said that he was going to at
tempt the organization of the younger
Indians Of this county into an alfalfa
society, whose object would be to
have every young Indian owning land
in this county to seed at least ten
acres Cf alfalfa on his allotment. This
certainly would be a coed thing for
the county and especially for the In
dian, for it would give him a start to
become self supporting. We wish this
particular Young Indian success in his
Very laudable undertaking and he
should receive every encouragement
from both Indians and whites. w.
believe the Indian could come nearer
making a success as a tiller of the
soil BY giving his attention to the
rowing OF alfalfa hay and seed than
w any other branch of farming.

ANOTHER FINE RAIN

1t was getting a trifle dry on the
surface and some of the gardens and
flower beds were beginning to suffer
a little for moisture, hut not badly.
The corn however was growing nice
ly and was not in any great need Of
moisture for time yet, and the har-
vest worl, was progressing nicely
some had completed their harvesting,
while others had several days work
yet before they could complete their
harvesting Of small grain. Then Tues
day evening after several days Of
threatening, a nice gentle rain began
falling and it rained all night long,
and Wednesday morning the precipi-
tation measured. .05 inches, and it was
still raining when this measurement
was taken. Every drop of this fine
rain was absorbed by the ground, and
it will put new pep and life into every
growing thing. Corn is just beginning
to tassel and silk and this rain is just
what we needed to make the corn
which promises another bumper crop
Some have cut their second crop of al
falfa, and the farmers have been more
than busy with their harvest, their
haying, cultivating and looking after
their stock, and this heavy rain will
give them few days of much needed
rest. We haven't suffered for the
lack Of moisture at any time this
spring, and all sorts of crops have
been making a good growth. The rain
came in ample time to do this country
world of good.

HOG CHOLERA BREAKS OUT

DR. Davis, the veterinary of Win
ner, who has been kept busy vaccinat.
ing cattle and hogs in this part of the
country for the past two weeks for
anthrax, on Wednesday Of this week
discovered cholera in two different
bunches of hogs. Roy Galbraith,
south Of town, has some eighty or
ninety hogs sick, and has lost two or
three. DR.. Davis pronounced it
cholera after making an investigation.
The same dav he found some of the
hogs in the NJ II. Weed feed lot, just
west Of town infected with the same
disease. Mr.. Weed had lost one of
his hogs up to the time Of writing this
item This is the first time in the his
tory Of the county, so far as we know,
that cholera has made its appearance
amono the hogs IN this county.
1t is to be hoped that the disease
will be checked promptly. With
cholera and anthrax both prevalent
Ill the county at the same time, it
gives our farmers no little concern.
The cattle loes as a result of anthrax
has already been quite heavy, but DR..
Davis informed the writer that with
n"ral vaccination and the heavy
rains Of this week he hoped that the
disease would soon be stamped out.

Elsewhere in this week Pioneer
IS an advertisement of the Chicago
d Northwestern system, "Reasons
Why the Transportation Act of 1920
Should Not be Changed" which
makes very interesting reading. The
railroads are now using the newspa-
pers to talk to the people and present
their side Of the railroad question.
This is something they should have
done good many years ago, and per.
haps they could have stopped some of
the legislation that has been enacted
and which has proved such burden
on our great transportation lines. We
believe that the great mass of people
are fair and honest, and while thcv
have been harrangued by politicians,
those who want to reform and con
troll most everything under the sun
but themselves, have mislead a great
number of people in order to gain
power. We are glad that the railroad
people have finally awakened and are
presenting their side of the great
transportation question, and there is
no doubt but what the great common

Frank w. Jarboe and Mr.. Pitcher,

Frank W. Jarboe and Mr.. Pitcher,
Of Burlington, Kansas, arrived here
Friday of last week and are visiting
with old friends and aquaintances
Mr.. Jarboe has a wide acquaintance
in Mellette county, having homestead
cd in Happy Hollow, and lived there
for a number of years. About five
years ago he returned to Kansas to
be with his parents and help care for
them. Mr.. Jarboe brought the editor
Il couple of fine black bass taken from
the waters at Lake Andes, which re-
sort he visited before coming to Wood.
They were certainly fine specimens
of the fnny tribe and we enjoyed them,
Frank still has great faith in the
Rosebud country and says he has
often had a desire to return to Mel
lette county and make his home, but
feels that he should remain with his
aged mother at Burlington, who is III
rather feeble health. Mr.. Pitcher is
an uncle Of M. d. Payne Of the First
State Bank of this place, and is in
the electric light business at Burling-
ton. This was his first visit to the
Rosebud country, and he is delighted
with what he saw here, and thinks
we have very rich country, and all
that we need is more farmers and a
railroad.
