TRIP.

The Crop as Viewed by an Elk
Pointer.
To the Editor: On Friday OF last
week We enjoyed Il trip overland to
Vermillion. All along the route we
noticed fields of wheat where the
shocks we're unusually thick. Gener-
ally, oats are not so good Us wheat.
Just north of Willard Aliens there
is Il splendid piece OF wheat.
George Ninson, just across the line
in Clay county, has threshed thirty
two bushels per acre from twenty
acres.
David Maynard has fifteen big stacks
from thirty-ninc acres.
We noticed several pieces OF corn
that will yield two-thirds of Il crop.
a large per cent OF the grass land
will produce 0 hay than many have
anticipated.
Nermillion is doing wonders in the
way OF building. A number of fine
residences have been and are now be-
derson, the old timer. is building Il

Mrs. c. J. Fry another of about the
same cost and Of Queen Ann style.
Our esteemed friend, Jay Marvin, has
Il 81 900 residence nearly finished and
there are several others unknown to
us. Atleust two brick business houses
have been constructed on Main street,
but the browning glory of Vermillion
is the rebuilding of the main building
OF the University. The wings are two
stories high and the central building
three stories. The style OF architec-
ture is particularly pleasing to the
eve, while the general appearance at
once impresses you with its solldity
and stability. When completed it
will be, without exception. the hand
soonest public building in the state.
All the iron beams and girders, seven
teen in number, that were in the South
Dakota building at the Worlds fair
have been used in the construction,
also thousands of feet OF the lumber.
Space forbids the further mention Of
this magnificent structure. Nermillion,
like Elk Point, is holding her W
these hard times. X.

that way are inferior, If anything. to
those down this way. or course, they
have no corn, and their wheat, what
there Is of it, is OF Il very fine grade.

bushels OF wheat on our farm this year
from 10 acres which would be an
average of l7i bushels to the acre.
1t is fine wheat and Il test made by
Mr.. Grill runs it up to 50 pounds to
the bushel. 1t grades Mol northern
and Is the best in years.

Northup & Beggs were the leading

A Queer Name.

Gov. Hogg of Texas, who is making
a tour OF the eastern states, Is accom-
panied by his daughter. The young
lady s name attracts attention wherever
she is introduced. 1t is certainly a
queer combination, and those who
hear it for the first time usually refuse
to believe that it is her real name.
1t it true, however, that lima Hogg is
the only name the lady has or ever
had. Her mother found the name
Ina in Il novel that she was reading
when Miss Hogg was a baby. She
admired the name and &C did her nus
band, and it was given in baptism to
that the Christian and surname made
q rather queer combination.
"She is satisfied with it now" says
her father. dryly, "but she may posi-
bly, change 1t some day.

Where's, we, teachers Of Union

tute, realize the need Of better equip

Of the present Of thoroughly trained
men and women in our public schools
and In all departments Of our educa-

Whereas, we deplore not only the in
efficiency Of many who style them.
selves teachers, but the existence Of
all those conditions that hinder Jul
educational growth as q common
wealth, and especially the contaminat-
ing influence OF politics In the selec-
ton Of state and county educational
officers and in the control and manage
ment Of schools; therefore be it
Resolved, That we, the teachers Of

favor OF an absolute divorce Of oil

from any vestige OF politics or political
influence and that we pledge ourselves
to work to this end. And be 1t further

Resolved, That we favor the election
OF professional educators to the offices
Of state and county superintendent
and we pledge ourselves to use our in
fluence to secure the nomination and
election OF such, believing that the
true teacher should rise above mere
party affiliations in oil questions relat-
ing to the great work Of education.
Resolved, That from our knowledge
Of Prof. B. F. Hoods character as a
man and his long and honorable career
in this state as an educator and his
eminent ability without any dispar-
agement TO candidates of any party
now in nomination., we look upon his
candidacy for the Office OF state SUI
