STOCK BREEDERS
VIII Meet TO Organize an Asso,
$tnn

VIII Meet to Organize an Assoeia-
ton.
Thursday, Feb. II, is the date set
for the improved stock breeders Of
South Dakota to meet In Mitchell for
the purpose Of organizing q South Da-
kota Improved Stock Breeders associ-
alton.
This association is aimed to include
all classes OF pure-bred cattle, hogs,
sheep, horses and poultry. Its purpose
Is to hold a meeting annually at some
accessible point in the state, when a
two-day program will be given treat
ing on all the important phases OF the
breeding business, with discussions and
exchanging Of views, theories and prac-
tees relating to the successful rearing,
handling and improving of thorough
bred stock.
Breeders OF this grade Of cattle are
rapidly increasing. Many have Brought
in herds Of registered stock froIn East
ern states, and still more will come,
while not q few Of the older residents
who are OF the progressive turn have
turned their attention to better stock.
There never has been an organiza-
ton Of this kind in South Dakota, and
the breeders begin to feel that they
were not making the best use of the
opportunities at hand, hence the call
for the coming meeting was made.
As a special feature Of this meeting
Prof, Wilson of the Brookings college
has been secured to attend and give an
address on the Live Stock Interests
Of the State" which cannot fail to. be
interesting and instructive.
The meeting is called for 3 O'Clock at
the court house.

sternly.
Elmendorf replied with haste that

was a brief silence, and then Kendall
left the room. saying that he would re-
turn presently. AS he passed the head
of the steps leading up from the main
entrance of the building the doors be-
low were suddenly flung open. and a
man appeared. He seemed to Kendall
to come up the steps without touching
them. In an instant his hand was on
Kendall's arm. and the doctor carried
three bruises for week as the result
OF It.
Though the two men had club ac-
quaintance, Alden did not show the
slightest trace Of recognition.
