A SUGGESTION.

Here is an advertising suggestion
for the railroads of South Dakota to
consider. Let them offer the farmers
a fancy price for all the two-pound
potatoes that may be had for use
on the dining cars. When these i'm
mense baked potatoes are set before
the passengers they will invariably
ask where on earth such tubers can
be grown. OF course the obliging
waiter could promptly apologize that
these we're the small ones that South
Dakota had left over after the big
ones had been shipped out. 1t might
be wise too to keep a few packages

There is being organized in many
smaller cities of the first class what
is called a Builders Exchange. This
is an organization to promote the best
interests of those engaged in build
ing. This is not an organization OF
contractors and building material
dealers for the betterment OF
these men alone, but it is a bureau
of information for the benefit OF the
general public as well. This bureau
is intended to be at the service OF
everyone, whether he is a contractor
wishing to bid upon some building or
a citizen wishing to construct a new
home. In short it is the proper place
for those intending to build to file
plans and get figures on the work
and for the contractor or material
dealer to get figures upon which to
bid upon contracts.
Why would it not be a good idea to
have such an institution in Brookings.
We are plenty large enough and there
is enough building both in the city
and surrounding country to warrant
an exchange. 1t might be we'll for

judging. On Monday President Taft
was a visitor at the show and per-
s~onally presented the cup to Mr.. Jen-
sen. Mr.. Jensen won the prize in
competition with students from the
agricultural colleges of nearly every
state in the union, scoring 1871 out
of a possible 1000, and his success
certainly speaks volumes for the qua
lily Of instruction impaired to its stu
dents by the State college. The
Brookings team won third prize
among the teams, and also secured
two $500 scholarships, which further
demonstrates that the State college
has a ranking second to none among
agricultural institutions of the country.

the Commercial Club to take this
matter up and assist in the organiza-
ton. The secretary of the club could
act in the same capacity for the
exchange to advantage.
The exchange would be of consider
able benefit to the city and adjacent
towns, and the Commercial Club
would do well, the Register believes,
to look the matter up. 1t would have
a tendency to make Brookings the
building center Of a considerable part
of the surrounding country, bringing
many people to the city to get figures
on proposed buildings as we'll as
many contractors and building men to
submit figures on the same.
Exchanges Of this kind are estab-
lished in all important and progress
sive cities of the country, including
one or two in this state, and they are
over two hundred in the United
States.
The exchanges, being organized to
promote the best interests Of all in
terested in building, do not take sides
in labor controversies, but use their
good offices in maintaining harmony
among all classes.

FOOD OF RUSSIAN HORSES.

Oats constitute three-fourths OF
the food upon which the Russian
horse must exist during the twelve
months of the year. Russian oats,
however, are far superior in sustain
ing power to the American cereal.
1t is also claimed that animals do
not become SO tired of this steady
diet as they do of the hay and corn
products in the United States. This
statement is made by an American
with years. experience in horse breed
ing and training in Russia.

Dates Assigned for Fall Racing in
Kentucky.

With all but one member,
George Long. of Louisville, pres
ent the Kentucky Racing Com
mission in session at Lexington
last Thursday selected dates for
the fall meeting at all the three
Kentucky tracks, Lexington, Lou
isville and Latonia, and considered
two rules which, if adopted, will
have far-reaching effect on Ken.
lucky race meetings in the future.
The dates allotted are:
Lexington, nine days, Septem-
Der IA to %, inclusive.
Louisville, eighteen days, Sep
TENDER 25 to October IA, inclusive.
Latonia, twenty-four d lay 3,
October Is to November II, in
a elusive.
The Louisville club was the
only one to bid for the Endurance
Stakes of $4,000, at four miles
and the race will be run there.
The Louisville management is to
fix the date and conditions.
A new rule was offered allow
ing only French mutuels to be
sold on race tracks under control
of the commission, which knocks
out auction pools in future.
Another rule submitted pro-
vides that all telephone and tele-
graphic wires used for dissemina-
tion of race track news must be
removed from the grounds. 1t is
practically certain that both these
rules will be adopted after they
have laid over thirty days, as is
the custom.
According to statement by
Chairman E, F, Clay after the
meeting, rule submitted at the
last meeting was passed providing
that purses for fall meetings be
the same in amount as those at
the spring meetings, This has
never been the case in Kentucky
before, fall purses always being
smaller than spring, but, there be-
ing no racing in the East, it was
thought best to continue big
purses.

SAM F. WARLICK
DEAD IN TEXAS
Americas Man Passes Away
Wednesday
End Comes at Mineral Wells, Texas,
Where He Went to Seek Health.
His Family Was at Bedside. Body
Will Be Brought Home.

Death has claimed Sam" Warlick,
than whom Americas possessed no
more genial, whole-souled gentleman
or one more worthy. The end came
shortly after the noon hour yesterday,
and the dread tidings caused unusual
sorrow when told here at three o'clock
Mr. Warlick died at Mineral Wells,
Texas, a resort near Fort WorCh
where he went two months ago in a
vain search for relief from the dread
malady that was slowly but surely
sapping away his life.
HIS immediate family, his wife and
three little girls, were at his bedside,
having been called there about ten
days ago His aged mother, his bro
Their, William Warlick, and sister, Mrs.
R. N. Andrews, await here the return
home of all that now remains of their
loved one
And the entire people of Americas
sorrow with these stricken ones in
their great affliction.
Mr. Warlick was one of Americas
best known and successful business
men; salt made man in all that the
term implies. By his own indefitigable
efforts he attained the exalted position
he long occupied
Nearly all of the thirty-six years
of his useful career have been spent
in Americas, where from the humble
position of carrier boy for the Times
Recorder he arose to that of head Of
enc of the greatest mercantile estab-
lishments in South Georgia-that of
Warlick Bros. & Co., here.
And in all of his dealings his rec
ord was as straight as his 1.-THE figure;
absolutely clean. No one could truly
say i'll of. Sam Warlick.
In his business career here he was
for many years associated with the
Pinkston Co. and later, with his asso-
ciates, purchased the interests of that
firm and occupied the same store on
Lamar street. Here, as Warlick Bros
& Co., the business has ever prosper
ed and grown greatly
An his master hand it was that guild
ed the helm.
Columns could be written of Sam
Warlick and then the story would be
incomplete No business man was
ever esteemed more highly and both
in the commercial and social world
h will be missed Thousands here
knew Sam" Warlick, as they loved
to call him; and all loved him
The body will probably arrive in
Americas Saturday night or Sunday
morning, notice of which will be given
later.
