From reliable sources we are led
to believe that the population of the
city of Brookings according to the
census recently completed will be
about $500. This is an increase of
300 since the government census
ten years ago and is an increase of
about 500 since the 1905 census, This
is a very good showing and will
compare favorably we think with the
increases shown by other cities in
the eastern part OF the state. II is
predicted that many towns in the
eastern and southern part of the
state will show decreases and the big
gains in population will be in the
western section.
