Tone Up

Paint

It is good business to keep prop­erty "toned up."

A coat of PureWhito Lead Paint no t on ly m a k e s things look better and gives them a higher selling value, but it makes things wear better and gives them a higher value for long wear.

Pure White Lead gives an opaque, durable coat that protects and pre-serves from the ravages of time and weather.

Prospective buyers of Pure White Lead have heretofore been subject to much attempted fraud in adulteration and sub* ititution. You are now pro­tected by the Dutch Boy trade mark which is found on the side of kegs containing only Pure White Lead, made by the Old Dutch Process.

Look for the boy.

Not the Place He Wanted. An English tourist in the West

Indies had been warned against bath­ing in a river because of alligators, so he went in swimming at the river mouth, where his guide assured him there would be none.

"How do you know there are no al­ligators here?" he asked, when he had waded out neck deep.

"You see, sah," said the guide, "dey's too many sharks here. De alli­gators is skeered out. Dis ain't no place for dem, sah." .

State News of Interest COULD HARDLY TOTTER ABOUT.

TOWN OF LEMMON.

One of the Newest on Mllwaukee-Mo-bridge Extension.

Lemmon is one of the new towns on the Milwaukee coast line extension from Mobridge. It is a lively little town of about 150 inhabitants. The town is only about two months old and has made rapid progress, considering that all lumber used for building has to be hauled from the Northern Pa­cific railroad, a distance of ninety miles.

The town consists of a general store, two banks, barber shop, meat market, two newspapers, two hotels and a blacksmith shop, also several other places of business. There are at least a dozen buildings being put up at present.

W. M. Vanderly, former postmaster of Marion, S. D-, has just arrived to make his new home on his homestead north of town.

Mr. Recey, formerly of Worthing, S. D., has established a blacksmith shop at Lemmon.

The new Milwaukee grading outfit, with a large force of men, are grading south of Gilstrap, about ten miles west of Lemmon.

The new road is expected to be in running order as far as Lemmon by Sept. 1.

A new postoffice building is being erected and they are expecting the future postmaster to get the appoint­ment at any time.

The artesian well outfit arrived on the ground Saturday night to dig the city well.

Field Bros, have established a dray line at Lemmon recently.

The Twentieth Century bakery is now ready for business.

There was a meeting of the business men of the town on Tuesday to dis­cuss matters regarding police protec­tion and also make arrangements for the building of a jail. A subscription for funds was circulated and a com­mittee was appointed to take the mat­ter in hand. They decided to use stone from the quarry west of town, and a very suitable building will be built to be used as a city jail.

CREATES A NEW FRUIT.

Hybrid Cherry and Apricot Adapted to Middle West.

Prof. N. E. Hansen of the South Da­kota agricultural college at Brookings who has been spending a few days in Sioux Falls, is one of the experts of the country who stand high with the department of agriculture at Washing ton. He has twice made distant trips in the interest of the department, once making a trip of 2,000 miles by sleigh and wagon, seeking for forage plants which were adapted to the United States.

This trip encircled a great part of the world. Last January Prof. Han­sen returned from a six-months' trip through Europe, looking for grades of alfalfa which were adapted * to the northern climate, and success was shown by his report to the depart­ment. He has discovered an alfalfa which will not only do well in the extreme northern portions of this coun­try, but also in Canada, and the Cana­dian Northwest will also come in for a part of the benefits of Prof. Hen-ser.'s investigation.

Prof. Hansen puts In much of his time in experiments, and he has re­cently developed a new fruit, which as yet has no name, but is called "South Dakota No. 7." It is a hybrid between the wild cherry and the apri­cot, and is saij to be a delicious fruit The professor is continuing his ex­periments along these 'ines, and only gives out resulls when he is quite sure of them.

There Is some talk that the new al­falfa being developed at Brookings shall be known as the "Hansen Alfal­fa." The professor is modest, and does not encourage this, but it is like­ly that the name will be adopted in spite of his modest protest.

CHANGES IN FACULTY.

South Dakota Regents Make Appoint­ments for Spearfish Normal.

The state board of regents sent to Judge and Mrs. Burtt of Huron, who are now in Kalispell, Mont., a fine lov­ing cup in remembrance of their golden wedding. Judge Burtt is an honored member of the board. The board has appointed the following to the faculty of the Spearfish normal: Misses Eva Lundville and Eva Le Reau, instructors in the training school; C. H. Lindberg, instructor In English; Dr. P. H. Brown, instructor in biology and physics, and Miss Bes­sie Wilson librarian. Prof. Christian Trygstad has been appointed instruct­or in German and Latin at the school of mines In Rapid City. The resigna­tion of Dr. Reynolds, professor of Eng­lish in the state agricultural college. Brookings, was accepted.

STORK NESTS IN COUNTY.

Headquarters Appear* to Be in David­son County.

Davidson county discourages the race suicide proposition, as is shown by the vital statistics for the year ending June 30. The births for the year were 234, 69 more than reported in 1906. There were 82 deaths, an in­crease of 6. There were 101 marriages, a decrease of 15. There were eight di­vorces issued during the year.

New Member of Mining Company Starts Vigorous Reform.

Gen. Mark \V. Sheafe of Watertown is being widely advertised for his hon­esty by the decision of Judge Whiting at Huron in the case of the American' Mexican Mining and Development company. The litigation before Judge Whiting was instituted about twe years ago by one A. T. Benson, who brought suit to enjoin the company from paying dividends and to make its directors restore alleged illegal profits they made out of the business. All the directors except Mark W. Sheafe have been held to be liable to the com­pany for mismanagement, and the company's present officers are direct­ed to bring action against the direct­ors for sums said to exceed $500,000.

Besides this $600,000 shares of pro­moter's stock has been canceled, thus reducing the outstanding capital from $1,400,000 to $800,000. This action lias already been commenced in the Chi­cago courts, most of the directors liv-ingthere.

Gen. Sheafe was elected to the board of directors a little over a year ago, and he at once proceeded to investi­gate the holdings of the company in Mexico. His examination revealed gross mismanagement and irregulari­ties on the part of the directors and resulted in a demand for their resigna­tion by the stockholders, the general alone being excepted. Upon the or­ganization of the new board he was elected president, and the offices were removed to this city. Under his man­agement the mines have been operated at a profit.

Gen. Sheafe is one of the old war horses of the Democratic party in South Dakota, and counts his friends by the thousand. He has the distinc­tion of holding the only brigadier gen­eral's commission ever issued by Presi­dent McKinley, he having served in that capacity during the Spanish-American war.

CARPENTERS BUSY AT FAIR.

Buildings Going Up Like Magic on State Exposition Grounds at Huron.

Many of the buildings at the state fair grounds are nearing' completion and by the time the big exposition at Huron opens the second week in Sep­tember everything will be in readi­ness. The sheep and hog barns are done, work on the new big agricultural hall is under way and the foundation for the second horse barn Is now being laid. The women's building will be begun within a week and everything is "booming." The grand stands have been moved to the new track and work on the track is now under way.

The race track was moved to allow more room for state and county build­ings, and while it was a big undertak­ing, it is asserted that it will be in ex­cellent shape by fair time, and that it will without doubt be one of the fastest tracks in the state. The new track will be in the extreme north­west corner of the large plat of ground dedicated to the state board of agri­culture for the state fair.

8ETTLERS SHOOT CATTLE.

Stockmen and Homesteaders Quarrel Over Range-

The range stock question is reach­ing an acute stage in western Stanley county, where the homesteaders are being accused of shooting stock which ranges upon the lands in which they have put their crops. The stockmen, in compliance with custom and the law as it shows on its face, are allow­ing their stock to run at will and the gardens and crops of the homestead­ers are the sufferers from such tres. pass. The ranchers say their stock is found suffering from shotgun wounds and in many cases killed from rifle shots. They are offering rewards for evidence regarding the perpetrators, but that will be hard to secure, as the homesteaders believe they are right in keeping live stock off their crops by any means in their power. The cattlemen claim to be in the right and there does not appear to be any middle ground for compromise.

A Vivid Description of the Most In-| sidious of Diseases.

looked badly and the kidneys were noticeably deranged. I sank lower and lower until given up and at this critical time began with Doan's Kidney Pills. Details are un­necessary. Twelve boxes cured me and I weigh six pounds more than ever before. They saved my life."

Experts Investigate Belle Fourche Dis­trict and Find Soil Right.

The last few weeks have seen a number of beet sugar experts in the vicinity of the irrigation project at Belle Fourche looking up the quality of the soil and getting the opinion of the farmers along the ditches. Aaron Grove of Denver, who represents some of the largest beet sugar factories in the West, has been at Belle Fourche for several days. He says that the soil is equal to that of Colorado; that a beet with a high per cent of sugar can be grown, and that beet sugar manu­facturers considered the Belle Fourche Irrigation project especially attractive for the building of one or more factories.

THE INCOME TAX LAW.

The income tax law, which was en­acted three years ago, while bringing In a small amount of revenue to the state, has not as yet swelled the state cash to any appreciable extent. The total' amount reported to have been collected for the last fiscal year was $2,788.75, of which fl,730.14 has been remitted to the state treasusy. While this Is not ret bringing In any great revenue it is looked upon as something which will materially help out state finances In the future.

Doctors and Remedies Fruitless—Suf­fered 10 Years — Completely

Cured by Cuticura.

"Small sores appeared on each of my lower limbs and shortly afterwards they became so sore that 1 could scarcely walk. The sores began to heal, but small scaly eruptions ap­peared. The itching was so severe that I would scratch the sores until the blood began to flow. After 1 suffered thus about ten years I made a renewed efTort to effect a cure. The eruptions by this time had appeared on every part of my body except my face and hands. The best doctor in my native county and many remedies gave no relief. All this was fruitless. Finally my hair began to fall out and I was rapidly becoming bald. A few months after, having used almost everything else, I thought I would try Cutlcura Ointment and Cuticura Soap. After using three boxes 1 was completely cured, and my hair was restored, after fourteen years of suffering and an ex­penditure of at least $50 or $00 in vain­ly endeavoring to find a cure. B.
