THE FARMERS EXCURSIONS.

The October number of the North
Western Bulletin, published by the
Chicago & North Western line, says of
the excursions to the State college,:
Reference has already been made in
the North Western Bulletin to the
popular excursions which it has been
the custom of the North Western line
to run each summer at a low rate to
the South Dakota State college at
~Brookings.
The fifth annual excursion took
place June 3 and A aud was a decided
success.
State Superintendent Ustrud said ut
the time of the excursions: Il ven
ture to say that the farmer who will
assist his boys in getting some re-
creation and enjoyment out of life
will assist materially in solving the
problem of how to keep the boys or
the farm. He will also get better re
suits from their work, and for such
investment will receive excellent re
turns" And it is a fact that thou
sands of South Dakota's boys and
girls got a new impulse toward high
err view of a farmers life by means
of this trip to Brookings.
Prof. James w. Wilson, the director
of animal husbandry, writes to the
Bulletin regarding the excursion as
follows: I'm regard to the success o.
the excursions to the South Dakota
State College of Agriculture and Me
chanic Arts, their effects on the South
Dakota farmers and their families, an(
on farm life in general in South Dako
ia, I desire to say that the fifth an
nual excursion to BroOkings was run
on June 3 and 4. ON which date a low
rate of fare was made for the pur
pose by the North-W Western line from
nearly every point in South Dakota
Other roads assisted in this, by max
ing similar rates in connection will

trains were operated to take car,

evening, although the privilege wa.
given the public Of remaining ovel
until the following day.
THE attendance this year vas larger
than ever before. The visitors put in
their time examining the laboratories
the growing crops. the trees, shrubs
vines and live stock. Many took ad
vantage of the low rates to visit
friends OF to meet acquaintances, and
many old graduates of the college

TRIUMPH OF A NEW IDEA.

About the quantity of reading mat
ter furnished in the average Sunday
newspaper there is no reason to com-
.plain-unless it be on the score of
too-muchness-but the quality often
leaves much to- be desired. The only
shining and unqualified exception to
this rule is found in the unique Sun
day magazine of the Chicago Record
Herald. There is nothing like it in
the whole range of American journal
ism. 1t is a real magazine that is
regularly issued as a part of the Sun
day paper. 1t is filled with first-class
fiction, able articles, choice pictures
and a wide range Of good miscellany,
all by popular or really famous au-
thors and artists. When writer's such
as Conan Doyle, Anthony Hope, Jack
London, Sewell Ford and Cyrus Town
send Brady are counted among the
contributors to a Sunday paper it's
triumph can no longer be doubted.
The Sunday magazine of the Record
Herald is far and away the best liter
airy treat offered to newspaper read
ers in the United States today. The
largest monthlies and Independent
weeklies cannot surpass it in quality
or sustained interest. You will al
ways find one of the finest serials Of
the year in it's pages. often captured
from the big monthlies at record
prices. It's short stories, including
those of the delectable Shorty McCabe,
can't be surpassed.

KEEPS FIRST PLACE.

Doane Robinson, of the state statisti-
cal department, has been working out
comparative figures on production OF
new wealth in the northwestern states,
using the government figures to work
from, ara frds that for last year South
Dakota continued to hold first place in
production of new wealth per capita
of population. The figures show that
the cereal production Of the states of
Iowa, Minnesota, North Dakota and
South Dakota, from the period extend
ing from 1900 to 1908, Cn per capita of
population were: Iowa, $676.94;
Minnesota, $463.05; North Dakota,
$l,107. 30; South Dakota, $1,114.06.
The live stock figures for the same
period are: Iowa, $3.50; Minnesota,
$1,000; North Dakota, $171.30; South
Dako.a, $223.4O.
For the year 1908, the cereal pro-
duction per capita of these states
was: Iowa, $3.50: Minnesota, $66.3O;
North Dakota, $4,000; South Dakota,
1880.
These figures show that South Da.
kota continues to hold the lead for
production of new wealth per capita
among the states of the northwest
and with the increased area opened
to production the past few years, will
no doubt hold it for some time to come

THE SCHOOL OF AGRICULTURE

The Huron State Spirit says editor
tally:
1t is a matter Of practical interes'
to the people of South Dakota to know
that the second year of the school O
agriculture will open at the state
agricultural college at Brookings OF
the second of next month.
Last ear the school had a class O
100 students, which was an exceller'
beginning. This year the numbe'
should go much higher, for the schoo
has proven it's eficiency-has demon
strated that it teaches something O.
great value to the agricultural ir
dutsry of the state and to the par
Elephants in that industry.
Unfortunately the facilities are lin
tied and only those applicants tina
give prompt attention to the oppor
tunity will be able to secure accom-
modations. This is a condition tina,
will undoubtedly be remedied as time
goes on, for the agricultural college
is the most promising of the state
institutions and it serves an agri
cupltural constituency.
Wisconsin's great university owes
more than half of it's fame to its
agricultural college department and
South Dakota need not be much, II
any, behind the Badger state in its
agricultural sp~ecialties.
The opening of the new school yea,
gives the patrons of education a
chance to renew their interest and the
Brookings institution commends itself
to their consideration.

The proposition to have postmast.

came back to rene acquaintance
and note the progress of the institu-
ton. The excursions were a grand
success in every particular.
The value of these excursions to
the farmers and their families cannot
be computed in dollars and cents. At
this time instruction is given through
object lessons, although the labora-
tories of the experiment station are
work shops for experiments, and many
new ideas are obtained on all sub
jects of interest. The family has an
opportunity for an outing which is of
great value to the farmer.
The authorities at the college make
new acquaintances and get into closer

been thought Of had they not taken
the trip. 1t gives them an opportunity
to- compare the different sections of
the state and draw conclusions as t.
the value of each section, thereby max
ing better citizens. The college al
ways provides for a speaker on these
occasions, who discusses matters per
tanning to- the farm, and is Away
able to- interest his hearers, and t.
give out ideas.
South Dakota has one of the best az
ricultural college faculties in the NORTH
west. Too many of her people, how
ever, attend institutions outside O

ties at home. But, as a result O
these excursions, the attendance a
