HORSE ELECTROCUTED.

l.. II. Skiff's driving horse was in.

wire yesterday morning. Mr.. Skiff
was driving down to his work about
seven O'Clock and when opposite the
Presbyterian church the horse step,
ped on the wire. which had evidently
fallen during the night and was not
visible under the trees. The first
shock threw the animal on
its side directly across the wire and
it lived but a very few minutes. Mr.
Skiff alighted and attempted to re-
move the buggy, but received enough
of the current to stun him. The wire
was not insulated and in that condi
tion was very dangerous to have ly.

of the city The horse was a family
pet, besides being a valuable animal
and the loss is a severe one.

EVER HEAR OF 1T?

Did you ever hear of one of those
catalogue houses sending to Brookings
county for pig, horse, COW, for
wheat, or corn, or potatoes, for butter
or eggs or any other product of the
farm? Somehow these mail order
people want to- sell al they can here,
but they seem to- forget that most of
our people are producers and have
goods to sell. They never give us a
lift at tax paying time, they do not
send any money back for our people
to use, in fact they have a pretty much
one-sided game. The business men of
Brookings are the ones who are always
working to- make this a better home
market for the farmer to sell in and
also the farmer to buy in. They are
the best supporters of your county
fair and farmers Institutes, and it will
pay you to give them a chance to fig
ure with you on everything you wish
to buy.

A DISTINGUISHED VISITOR.

Hon. James Wilson, Secretary of
Agriculture in President Roosevelt's S
cabinet, arrived from the west last
night for three or four days visit at
the home Of his son, Prof. J. w. Will
son and to see the new grandson who
arrived there this week. Secretary
Wilson was a pleasant caller at the
Register office this morning, and in
formed us that he was on his way
home from the Black Hills, where his
department is interested in finding
suitable trees with which to re-forest
the Hills. Nearly every foot Of TIM
ber in the Hills has been cleaned out
by the lumbermen, and the Depart
ment of Agriculture, ever watchful
of the interests of the people, will re-
new and protect them.
Secretary Wilson states that Prof.
N. E. Hansen of the State college, who
is now in Siberia for the Department,
is having good success in gathering
alfalfas and clovers in a colder lati.
tude than has ever before been at
tempted.
Brookings is honored in having as a
visitor the Honorable Secretary and
large number Of our citizens will
no doubt have the pleasure of meet
ing him within the next few days.
He has served as Secretary of Agri-
culture since President McKinley's
first administration, Vnd his grand
work for the farmers of this and other
countries has earned him the title of
Father Of Modern Agriculture.

performing dogs and monkies were the
best part of the show.

comedy for the show. Five dollars

REGENTS WILL MEET.

The Regents of Education will meet
at the college next Monday to dispose
of a number of important matters. The
contract for furnishing the new girls
dOrmitory will be let, as we'll as the
contract for the wiring and the cleo
>trical fixtures for the same building.
The dormitory is nearly completed and
will be ready for use by the time col
leg opens in September. At this meet
ing the board will also select sites
for two new experimental substations
west of the Missouri river, and it is
probable that they will go from here
to- look over the ground before decid-
ing. The last legislature provided for
three new stations, one in Meade or
Butte county, one in Stanley or Ly-
man and one in Mcpherson. The lat
ter station has been located near Eure-
ka and is already into crop. These
stations will be used in experiments in
dry farming and will be under the di-
rection of the government station here.
The people of Philip have petitioned
the board to locate one of the stations
near that town, which is located in
Stanley.

hold the flowers and these will be re-
turned after the judges have passed

last day of the fair. The Claus shears
are so we'll known that scores of
Brookings county ladies will without
doubt strive for these prizes, which
are very liberal and we'll worth try

1908 FAIR
PROSPECTS
Promise the Greatest Show
Ever Held Here
EVERYBODY lENO A HELPING HAND
And a Grand Fair viii be the
Result

The county fair directors have been
busy the past two or three weeks SOL
letting advertising for the premium
list among the towns in the county
outside of Brookings. They report ex.
cellent success, and that everywhere
the people showed disposition to do
all in their power to help boost for
their wn county fair. They report
that the business men of the outside
towns Of the county will be represented
to the following extent i'm this years
premium list: White, SOS; Bruce, S33;
Sinai, $25; Arlington. $3.50; Elkton,
$3S; Bushnell. $3.50; Volga, $29.5O;
Aurora, $33. This makes total of
$255.50, and it is hoped to secured
that much more in this city. This will
enable the association to help pay for
the premium lists and other prelimin-
airy expenses, and the heavy expense
of fair week will be taken care of by
the admissions.
President Carlisle informs us that
the directors are now in correspon-
dence with number of leading at.
fractions, which will appear here free
during the four days. AS the contracts
have not yet been closed we are unable
to give the list of the attractions, but
Mr.. Carlisle assures us that they will
be something out Of the ordinary. The
association very much appreciates the
patronage and assistance given the
fair by the people of the county last
year. and are out to make the coming
one larger and better than ever.

THROUGH TO
THE PACIFIC
Rumor Again Sends NV. Ry.
Across Continent
THIS Time VIA THE NORTHERN PACIFIC
Only a Matter of Time Till
We are on Coast Road

Ever since the Northwestern rail
road commenced the extension of it's
line through the state to the Hills
there have been persistent rumors
that the road would finally go through
to the Pacific Coast. According to
the Tacoma Times Of August 1 this
will be accomplished over the lines of
the Northern Pacific road, which it is
claimed that the Northwestern has
secured control of. The Times says:
"The Chicago & Northwestern rail.
way has wrested the control of the
Northern Pacific from Jim Hill and is
coming to Tacoma.
This information was secured by
the Times today from an authoritative
source.
For the last two years the state
ment has been persisted in that the
Northwestern was coming to- Tacoma
and it would be here as soon as the
Milwaukee, its great rival. There has
been much speculation as to how it
proposed to get here, and when it in
tended to start extending from the
ends of its Inns in Montana to this
state.
From the statements now being dis
cussed among the knowing ones in
railroad circles, it appears it does not
have to build new line, but that it
has gobbled the n. p, with the help
of the Morgan interests in the east
and is going to land here over the N.
P. lines.
'The situation probably explains
why Jim Hill fastened, while he still
had control of the N. p. to buy from
it tidelands for his Great Northern
road for terminals in Tacoma.
GAS the story comes now, the die
has been cast in the railroad situation
and Hill has been dethroned from his
position of dominence in the N. P.
Railroad men are talking guarded
ly over the report. The officials and
clerks at headquarters building have
heard rumblings of a coming change
and are discussing the matter quietly,
but little is getting out.
THE Times, however, today secur-
ed information indicating that the deal
is a certainty and that the North-Wes-
tern will, before many moons, be in
full control of the N. p. and will be
putting her trains into Tacoma"

A GOOD COUNTRY.

One of our readers, w. B. Embry,
writes us letter from Dade City, Fla,
in which he gives the following inter-
esting comments on the crops and cIi-
mate: 81 will tell you something of
our Havana and Sumatra tobacco
growing. The Sunny Brook Tobacco
company has in eighty acres this year,
grown under one-haIf shade and irri-
gated. 1t was planted in March and
April from seed beds just the same
way cabbage is grown. The crop was
gotten in in June and July by hand and
strung on twine strings attached to a
52-inch lath. The yield is LOO pounds
per acre and 1t is selling at As cents
pound. Over 10000 pounds of the
crop has been weighed up already.
Fall crops of lettuce, potatoes, okra
cucumbers, string beans, beets, cauli-
flower. ETC., will follow the tobacco.
Berries can be planted now and will
yield a paying crop in December. Jan
uary and February. Land is worth
from SO to $40 per acre. The climate
is delightful. At night the thermo-
meter goes down about 20 and rarely
ever gets above SO. The rainy season
Is from June until September and at
this time 1t rarely goes three days
without rain. The winter and spring
months are usually dry"
