SPEND YOUR MONEY AT HOME

And help your own city. A dollar
spent with a mail order house is
"out Of circulation" so far as Wood
is concerned. You never have a
chance at that dollar again. It's gone,
That dollar revolves around t.s.CiI
cago or New York and you have no
chance OF getting a part of it back un-
less you go to Chicago or New York
to work and scheme for an existence.
But your dollar spent in Wood will
help build Wood 1t will pay wages,
taxes, insurance, repairs and upkeep,
and in a hundred and one different
ways you will have an opportunity to
get a part, or all, of that same dollar
back into your possession. It's the
dollars that you sped III Wood that
count. If every dollar earned here
was spent here, or in this immediate
community, this would indeed be a
much larger and better community.
Get the habit Of spending your money
at home. Patronize the Pioneer ad-
vertisers. Be a booster in action as
we'll as in spirit. Y, u can't be a
booster for Wood and spend your
money elsewhere. Get the trade at
home habit.

INDIAN ATTORNEYS
HAVE NOT QUIT
Washington, d. c,
March 20, 1923.

MdISll -Oy lo-o.
i[r. Fred c. Kirch,
Mellette County Pioneer,
Wood, South Dakota.
Dear Mr.. Kirch:
The attention of the attorneys for
the Sioux Nation has been called to
a newspaper item printed in the Sioux
City Journal on March 9Th, last, in
which it is stated that the attorneys
hired by the Indians had withdrawn
from the case.
The statement made is untrue, Cap
'ain c. c. Calhoun and Major Ralph
III. Case are under contract to prose-
cute the claims of the Sioux Nation
against the United States, and they
have never thought Of withdrawing,
but, on the other hand, they have
every confidence that they will secure
a substantial recovery for the Sioux,
The Indians need have no alarm
over their present attorneys, and it
will be appreciated if you will give
this statement as much publicity as
possible.
Yours very truly,
Attorneys for the Sioux Nation

HOW ABOUT TT?

We have recently had several par
ties come to us and ask us how we
were getting along with the proposed
alfalfa tour in this county In May or
June. There seems to be considerable
interest in this proposed tour. While
in White River, last Saturday, Erick
Brodboll, who is now representing
the Humphries Nurseries, came to US
with a proposition that appealed 10
us as a good one to help stimulate
interest in this big advertising stunt
and we told him we would accept
his most generous offer and use it in
promoting this enterprise. Here is
his offer: He proposed to give away
a one-acre orchard to some farmer in
Mellette county who is a member of
the Mellette County Farm Bureau,
and who participates in the proposed
alfalfa tour, some time in May or
June of this year. This one-acre
orchard consists of sixteen apple trees,
any variety; sixteen cherry trees, any
variety; sixteen plum trees, any vari-
ETY.; two crab apple trees, any variety;
two hnndred mulberry trees, two
hundred Everbearing strawberry
plants, twenty-five gooseberries;
twenty-five currants, twenty-five
raspberries, twenty-five blackberries,
and twenty-five grapes. Every farm
bureau member who participates in
the alfalfa tour will be given a num-
Der, and at the end of the tour
drawing will be held and the farmer
holding the lucky number will be CIV
en- this orchard free of all cost. Ger
tainly something worth striving for.
All plants and trees are guaranteed
to be A-No. l stock.
Now, in order to see just how much
interest is manifested in this proposed
tour, we are herewith printing a
coupon, or pledge, which we would
like to have you sign and return to
the Pioneer at once, if youthink well
of the idea, and would join in such
an enterprise. If this enterprise is to
be put over, it is time we were getting
busy, and as soon as enough have
signed up to make the enterprise
sure 90, we will extend invitations to
some railroad officials to come and see
Mellette county first hand, also invite
some special writer's of agricultural
papers and the daily press to join the
caravan and, then it is our idea to
extend a general invitation to those
living in the more populous sections
of this and adjoining states, to come
and take this tour with us and get
some real first hand information
about Mellette county and its many
opportunities for the thrifty husband
man. Then too, there are many little
details that will have to be worked
ont. so we have thought it good idea
TO ask all those favoring the idea.
and who would be willing to JOIN in the
tour. to fill out the attached coupon
and return to the Pioneer at once
If enough sign up we will 60 ahead
with arranging the details OF this
proposed tour. If not enough people
manifest interest in the enterprise, we
will simply drop it and say no more
about it. It's up to you, Mr.. Citizen
of Mellette county, whether or not you
want to pull off one OF the greatest
advertising stunts ever proposed IN
this county

THE FARMERS WIFE
BY Mary Ann Gray

Redecorating Your Home-In the
spring of the year the housewive's s
thoughts turn to fresh paint and new
curtains; some rooms must be redec-
GRATED. What about the bedroom of
your boy on your girl? Tastily furn-
ished and neatly arranged rooms will
develop in children habits of personal
tidiness and responsibility. These
suggestions are made for the boy s
room: A substantial bed, of the day
bed type, with spread of blue denim
chest of drawers Of oak or mission, or
painted to match walls, buff tinted.
A mirror should be hung above the
drawers, and substantial desk should
be placed in the room. Hanging book
shelves, tie rack, wall case for tennis
racket or gun, comfortable chair,
study lamp and curtains to match bed
spread complete the furnishings.
Sister, across the hall, would take
pride in a room Of her own, with a
color scheme Of rose and gray, blue
white or yellow cream. Rag rugs of
gray and rose, ivory painted wood
work and furniture, dressing table
with rose satcen cover, bedspread OF
white with rose lining and dotted
swiss curtains with rose drapes make
room attractive. Give her desk, q
large box to hold "keepsakes," low
table, two chairs and lamp, and she
will find deep pleasure in her room.
