                          TURTON, SOUTH DAKOTA

 Mr. THUNE. Mr. President, today I recognize Turton, SD. The 
town of Turton will celebrate the 125th anniversary of its founding 
this year. Located in Spink County, Turton came into existence during a 
time known as the ``Great Dakota Boom,'' when the railroads were 
expanded throughout the State.
  Since its beginning 125 years ago, the Turton community has continued 
to serve as an outstanding example of South Dakota traditions and 
values. I would like to offer my congratulations to the citizens of 
Turton on this milestone date and wish them continued prosperity for 
years to come.
