FROM SOUTH DAKOTA.

The following letter has been-re-ceived by the Republican from a North.« Dakota subscriber, but formerly a resident of this county: Howard, So. Dak., Nov. 20, 1919. Mr. Hamilton. Sir:* I am writing this to inform you that I now live 40 miles northeast of Mitchell. I am employed by A. T. Downey for the winter and coming year on a large farm. We have the Hampshire hogs, and they are the only hogs to raise. We. had a big sleet about ten days ago, but it is all gone now. This was followed by snow and twenty-five miles west of Mitchell the snow was two feet deep on the level. There is still a great amount of corn to husk and the farmers are paying from ten to fifteen cents per bushel. Corn will run from eight to fifty bushels per acre. Mr. Downey says that the state will average about ten bushels per acre. There was much corn that could not be cultivated on account of the great amount of rainfall in May. We send our best regards to all. Please change the address of my Republican from Mitchell to R. F. D. 4, Howard, So. Dak. Very truly, J. W. HAMMERTON. Much attention is given to the fact that the man who used to be the kaiser has raised a beard. If that were* all that he has raised he might be ’ forgiven.—Philadelphia Press.

COLLEGES ENTITLED TO SUPPORT.

Educational institutions are now watching the progress of the drive for a Harvard fund of $15*250,000 with the greatest interest. Princeton already has started its drive for $14,000,000; Cornell is asking for $5,000,000 and Bryn Mawr is seeking to raise $1,000,000. The purpose •is the same in all cases, to insure an equipment that will prove less inadequate and a staff of professors which* shall be less lamentably underpaid. The authorities at Bryn Mawr intend to increase the salaries of the faculty 25 pter cent. In the Harvard drive substantially m ore than halfHf the fund already has been subscribed and the success of the campaign is assured. Boston and New York has been indulging in friendly rivalry for the honor of subscribing the greater amount and the Bay state metropolis is leading at present. The attitude which the business men generally are displaying is indicated by the willingness of a prominent financial leader to head Princeton’s drive, even though not an alumnus of • that institution. The movement has now spread to the point where it has affected the entire country, and if the endowed universities are successful it will mean that the legislatures will be approached at the next sessions for increased appropriations for state universities. Indiana perhaps more than any state in the union of equal size and prominence has been handicapped by insufficient funds for its universities. Politicians endeavoring to make a record for economy have quibbled over every penny to Purdue and Indiana universities. As a result many of our prominent educators, men with national reputations, have been drawn to other states where their services were recognized by the payment of more adequate salaries. Indiana university alone has gained a name a sthe “mother of college presidents” from the .umber of her faculty members who' have accepted high positions in other states. This speaks ill for the future of our Hoosier institutions. It is no exaggeratfon to say that Indiana has lost enough big men to fill the important chairs of any great collage. Unless the members of our legislature have vision enough to realize the incalculable injury they are doing our institutions the state will sink belo wthe level to which it has clung as a leader in the country’s educational life.—lndianapolis Star.

SLAYER OF POLICEMAN IS GRANTED A PARDON.

Monticello Journal——— Charles F. Lawson, of Delphi, who shot and killed a policeman at Delphi on the night of October 13, 1915, and who was tried in the circuit court at, Frankfort on a charge of first degree murder, ' has been finally discharged from the state reformatory at Jeffersonville. Lawson, in company with several young men, was loafing about Delphi waiting for a train back to his home in Lafayette after having stolen a ride on a freight train to the town. When accosted by the town marshal . and arrested for loitering, a fight ensued. In making his escape from the policeman, the three men put up a fight and Lawson fired several shots, all of which found their mark in the officer’s body. He died the following day. Lawson asked a change of venue from the Carroll county court and the case was, sent to Frankfort for trial. The case was tried in the circuit court and on December 20, 1915, a verdit was returned charging manslaughter. He was sentenced to serve a term of two to twenty-one years. The prisoner was granted a pardon yesterday on the recommendation of the superintendent of the state reformatory.

EARS OF CORN WITH UNEVEN NUMBER OF ROWS.

Have you ever seen an ear of corn with an uneven, number of rows? The management of the International Grain,and Hay show, to be held November 29 to December 6 in connection with the Live Stock exposition, Chicago, has a request from one of the states asking if there will be an exhibit of corn with uneven number of rows. The one inquiring also states that he would offer a premium for a real ear of corn that has grown in a natural state with an uneven number of rows. This word has been sent to the farmers of the various states, urging them to look for such ears and to send them to Chicago. If any can be found, they will make a unique exhibit and will attract much attention. Nature seems to have provided that rows of com should grow on the cob in pairs. Two rows of corn seem to feed through the same channel on the cob. Ears with uneven number of rows have not been exhibited heretofore. This presents an interesting question to the com growers and, no Jjdoubt, many thousands of farmers will examine ears as they have never examined them before in the hope that they may find one with an uneven number of rows. Anyone finding an ear with an uneven number of rows should send the same to the International Grain and Hay show, Union Stock Yards, i Chicago, HI.

Organization Through Co-operation V THE Standard Oil Company (Indiana) attributes to organization its success in discharging its obligations as a public servant. The business of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) is a highly specialized * , branch of industry, where complete cooperation is necessary to insure maximum efficiency. Every one of the 22,000 men and women who make up the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) family must have a thorough, broad-gauged understanding of t he benefits to be derived from organization. In addition each must have an intensive training which makes him a specialist, and enables him to complete his part of the w6rk and pass it on to others without delay or lost motion. The result is a family of highly trained individuals, tense ai.d keen to render to the public the utmost in service. ZIBut Standard Oil Company (Indiana) organization goes further. To give a single illustration: When a manufacturer has two machines, identical in construction, but not equal in production, he calls on the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) for expert assistance and advice. A competent engineer goes over the problem and after thorough investigation, finds the lubricating oil necessary to cope with conditions surrounding the inefficient machine, and to bring it up to full capacity. Thus does the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) organization extend to industry generally, a service resulting in a combination to promote trade that production may be increased and the utmost in service given to the public.
