Bismarck daily tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1881-1916, 1906-10-15

and Saturday of this week at the col
lege. He reports everything we'll
along, with the blowing progressing
nicely, and this he observes while
very hard in the stubble is very easy
in the corn land, with the soil very
light and friable.
The wheat on the station gave very
satisfactory yields. From eighteen plots
sown, the poorest crop reported is
better than 20 bushels and the berry
from the blue stem and fife varieties
was so large that the durum screens
had to be used in the seperators when
the grain was threshed.
Mr.. Burnet, who was registrar in
this school last year writes that he
is greatly enjoying his work in the
Kansas City (MissourD manual train
ing school. The school has, an enroll
ment of 1900 and he says of his work
cit is easy in quality but strenuous in
quantity and in all is very pleasant"
The football situation at the agri-
cultural college has developed very
favorably this week. First of all
came the news Tuesday that the Uni
versity management had signed. con-
tracts for two games one to be played
in each of the two towns, Grand Forks
and Fargo. This seemed to waken up
the college spirit a little and the
necessity of 1 good second team
seemed for the first time to, become
apparent to the faculty and student
body Wednesday Registrar PARROT
undertook the organization of this Sec
ond team and during the last part Of
the week for the first time during the
season the first team has been able to
get good practice. The second team
though light is quite fast and is full
of fight. Games are being arranged
for it with the Fargo high, Moorhead
high and Moorhead normal. Efforts
are being made also to get some
games with teams in towns near to
Fargo. ". D.: -
The schedule for the college team
is now completed and Mayville will be
met in Fargo on October IT.. Carlton
on October 20; University of North
Dakota on October q; Yankton on
November 3; ,Hamline on November
10 and University Of North Dakota or
November II, for the achampio
Of the state. This is a very heavy
schedule and the college is unfortu
4 nate in that 1t jumps right into j
il without any try-out against som,
i easier teams. However the candi
) dates for the team realize what the,
have to overcome and are practicin,
, faithfully and hard and expect to b,
) able to make their existence quit
evident to all corners.
