There were probably not many
people who thought when the
prohibition law was passed that
the time would come when its
enforcement would bring a dis
pute with foreign nations over
the amount to be carried by
foreign ships entering American
ports. Evidentally they are
working under the policy that
it costs no more to come across
with full load then half empty.
And then again its a good way
for some of them to pay their
war debts to Uncle Sam.

SOUTH DAKOTA INVITED
TO BIG CONFERENCE

HURON, May 9.-The South Dako-
ia Farm Bureau federation is asked to
be represented at an agricultural re-
search conference in Chicago on May
Is.
In his call for the conference Pres
ident Bradfute of the American Farm
Bureau federation says that its object
is to talk over the research work
which is now being done by the vari-
Gus organizations and to consider the
desirability OF organizing a Middle
West Agricultural Economics Re
search Committee. In New England, n
Research Council on Marketing and
Food Supply is serving as a clearing
house for economic information and
is proving of great value. 1t is believ-
ed that such a committee for the
Middle West could be of equal SER
vice in stimulating and co-ordinating
research activities bearing upon agri-
culture in the fields of taxation, cen
trail market distribution, transporta.
ton, market and mortgage financing,
farm income and production costs.

100000 TLEECES IN
NATIONAL WOOL POOL

Huron, May 9.-The National wool
0oOl. foStCred by various farm bureau
declarations and in which the South
Dakota Sheep and Wool Growers as
ISOLATION pools it's wool, has a total
of 100, 900 fieeces pledged for 1923,
according to announcement received
from C j. Fawcett " the national
warehouse in Chicago.
In. the 1923 pool Montana has pledg-
cd 55,322 ~fieeces, equivalent to g.
$50, 900 pounds of wool. Range fleeces
pooled from South Dakota will total
$50, 900 equivalent to 1850, 900 pounds.
Utah has pledged $4,000 ~fleeces, equiv
, lent to 744,400 pounds. This makes
a total of LOO, 900 feeces or 1854
900 pounds of wool, frem the range
states.
According to Mr.. Fawcett it is
quite universally recognized by the
wool growers of the west that the pool
has been the means of stimulating the
price paid in a local way by specula-
tors from 3 to 5 cents per pound. In
the seasons of 1921 and 1922 the wool
sools were very successful, returning
o the growers substantial increase
above the price obtainable locally at
shoaring time.

SPRING MOISTURE BIG HELP
TO SMALL GRAIN CROPS

Watertown, May 7.-H. o. Hebrand-
son. agricultural statistician for the
department OF agriculture, in his re-
port on crop conditions says the SEC
ond half of April in the four spring
wheat states was marked by a period
OF wet weather that extended from the

we'll distributed precipitation was re-
corded throughout the region. On the
whole this moisture was beneficial al

we'll near completion in central and
southeastern Minnesota, but Is still

Montana east of the divide. Winter
grains now show a somewhat spotted
condition as the result OF winter kill

to date was checked by low tempera-
lures, making losses still uncertain.
Flowing tor corn is in progress in
South Dakota but spring blowing else
where is proceeding rather slowly. IL
has been too cool for pasture growth
as a rule but livestock appear to be
amply supplied with dry feed. Spring
pig losses in the Dakotas are gener-
ally expected to show effects OF the
March and early April cold weather.
Wheat seeding is reported we'll rear

THE DEER ARRIVE

After long truck ride from up in
Bayfield, county five of the Rod q
Gun Club deer for the Glen Park zoo
arrived late Saturday night, and
were turned loose in their new pen.
One of the animals. large buck,
was very sick during the trip, and
died Sunday. The loading of the
deer into the truck proved diff
cult operation, and one animal got
away and is at large near its old
home, but it is expected that it will
be caught and shipped here later.
The herd will then consist of ono
buck and four doe.
Approximately five acres of Glen
Park are fenced off to accommodate
the deer. The enclosure includes an
inlet from the river, where they may
drink, and with the Vegetation on the
fiat and hillside, provides, and ideal
homo for them. A lean-to will be
erected to allow them shelter from
winter storms, and during the cold
period, if there is too much snow
and ice, it will be necessary to pro-
vide hay for their feed. Otherwise
they will run free and unattended,
just as this same spot used to see
them in the days of our pioneer set
tiers.
The long auto trip, and the hordes
of visitors have terrified the animals
so that they keep out of sight as
much as possible, but when they
become more accustomed to their
surroundings and lose some of their
natural fear of human beings they
will stay out in the open more, where
there will be better opportunity to
observe them.
On Sunday many visitors sought
for a better view from the top of the
fence, but as the wire is compare
lively light and not built to be
climbed this practice will have to be
stopped and signs to that effect are
to be prominently placed about the
enclosure.
The Park Accommodated the largest
tourist crowd of its history Sunday,
most of the visiting cars coming
from the Twin Cities. 1t is estima-
ted that there were over a thousand
picnickers there in the afternoon, be-
side the home folks who went over
to see the deer.

Mrs. George w. Chinook, Jr.,
died at her home in this city Satur-
day, August 18, 1923, after a long
illness.
Mae E. Gibbs was born in Mann
Valley October 26, 1870, and except
for short period in her early youth,
she had always made her home in
this immediate vicinity. On June

genial disposition, with the true
Christian spirit of hospitality and
n1ighborliness. Such life as hers
was a blessing and benefaction to
all within the sphere of its influence,
and her death is misfortune to all
and an irreparable loss to the home
made desolate by her departure. A
perfect lady at all times, under all
circumstances, she seemed born to in
spire the love and respect of all who
were so fortunate as to enjoy her ac-
quaintance.
Funeral services were held at the
home Monday afternoon, DR.. j. O..

With the Pierce County Fair just
a month away the prospects are that
it will surpass all previous exhibit
tions and establish new records not
only in attendance but in number of
exhibits and attractions. The dates
of the fair are Sept. 10, 20, and FL.

A large crew of men is now busy
on the grounds making the necessary
improvements among which are the
building of a new grandstand which
will be of twice the capacity of the
old one which has been torn down,
and the putting of the race track in
to the best possible condition.
Boys and girls club work is again
going to be big feature and will
eclipse last years wonderful display
This exhibit will be housed in large
tent.
Harrison's carnival of Minneapolis
will furnish the free acts, ten in num-
Der. There will be both a merry-go-
round and ferris wheel on the Pike

and the drivers will be admitted
free. The date and further par
ticulars will be announced later.

TT SHOCKED THE HORSE

Although the proportion of horses
to autos is hopelessly against the
former, old Dobbin is certainly
hogging the limelight in the matter
of peculiar accidents in this neighbor-
hood.
Last weeks Journal chronicled the
tragic tale of departed tail; the
tale of a tail which was separated
from it's base by the swift-moving
belt of separator.
Although not fatal, this weeks
affair was perhaps more shocking.
Monday afternoon John Stockdale's
team was tied to an electric light pole
in front of the City Hall, when one
of the wires broke loose and shorted
onto the pole. Metal plates had
been nailed to the post to protect it
against being gnawed by horses.
One of Stockdale's team touched the
metal and was promptly Knocked
down. 1t got to its feet, touched the
metal and fell again. Passers by
noted its peculiar actions, and dis
covering the cause, notified Mr.. Ken
ter at the power plant, and the juice
was turned off, but not before tn
horse had repeated its folly two or
three times.
The animal came through without
any permanent injury.
