This Is the seaaon of the year when king

Mitrhell as a corn city has received the
greateat amount of advertlalng of any
place of S,00o lnhabltanta In thla country,
and thla enterprise haa come to be the
pride of the city and the state. Mitchell,
however, does not claim to be the origin
ator of the corn palace ldaa. It had itt
Inception In Sioux City, la., In 18S7, bu:
the enterprise failed to meet the expecta
tlons of Us promotera and the project a
dually abandoned. Profiting by the failure
of Its sister city, Mitchell conceived tht
Idea of advertising the corn reaourcea ol
the state and following different llmi.
built the first building In lWi
The enterprise was promoted by tht
buslneaa men of Mltohell under the man
agement of an executive committee, of
which L. O. Gale, was president; J. K.
Smith, secretary; N. L. Davison, treasurer;
the other members tx-lng John D. Lawler,
Louis Bwkwtth, Thomaa C. Burna, Charles
C. Champeny and R. D. Welch.- Thaaa
gentlemen guided the first corn palace to a
magnifk ant guaoess la letf TUmj ereewdl
a building that coat 110,000, decorated It
with corn and graaaea, and Invited, the
people of the northwest to come and see
It. They cams In such numbers that at
the cloae a little over $2,000 was realised
from the enterprise The second palace
was held the following year and with the
same resultant success. It wss planned
to hold the palace In ltW8, but during the
summer months the business paralyals aiH
In all over the country and the enterprise
waa abandoned until auch time aa times
became good again. No corn palace was
held until 1900, when the board waa re
organized and elected practically the same
ottlcers. Since then the corn palace haa
been held every succeeding year with
varying succeaa, and It la now conceded
to be the lineal attraction In the north
west. In 1906 the corn palace Idea had out
grown the building then in use and It waa
neceaaary to erect a larger alructure. A
larger space of gratind waa leased a block
to the north, and there, waa erected a
building lxl00, with a seating capacity
of people eo- Lbe mala floor, aad the
large balcony. It cost the cltlsens over
120.000 to build, but they had a structure
that met the demands of the people.
The corn palace for VM7 is well under
way and will be completed In time for the
opening of the exhibition. One of the big
features In the agricultural display will
be the products brought over from the
Black Hills country, where. In the vicinity
of Belle Fourche the United States gov
ernment Is conducting an irrigation ex
periment It is designed to show the peo
ple of the country what can be accom

land that haa been irrigated from ditches.

Irrigated farms will be shipped here for
