THAT THE LEADING STATE INSTITUTION
Is Located at Brookings, Is Opinion Of
WATERFOWL Paper-TelIs of Great
Value of College to State.

Fridays Watertown Daily Public
Opinion had a full page write-up illus
trated with cuts, of the State College
in this city. The article was written by
h. S. Patterson, special writer Of the
daily. who was here last week. The
writer pays a splendid tribute to the
value of the State College to South
Dakota and calls it the leading insti-
tuition of the state. We quote some OF
the paragraphs:
The few people in South Dakota
who have never visited BrOokings,
have little conception of what their
State College is. or what is being
done there for the development OF
the state. They have not heard that
more than 300 young men and women
from all parts of the state assembled
there on September % and that over
800 more will arrive about 10 eriscr
/, when the school of agriculture opens
to prepare themselves for lie duties.
A large majority of tie students
found there are from the farm and are
there to pursue, from scientific stand
point, the problems they must solve
when they reach maturity.
izing that most of its citizens neces-
sarily would be agriculturalists found
ed this institution, and if the mem,
bers could return and see the work
that is being done they would realize
they builded better than they knew.
On the first visit to Brookings one
is not surprised to find that it could be
appropriately named Forest City
We did not believe that a city could
be found west of Illinois with as
many trees as you find here. The
residence portion of the city has more
good sidewalks, better kept lawns and
more shade than can be found in any
other city OF its size in the west. The
moral atmosphere is the best to be
found in the state, because a large
proportion Of its citizens are people
who have earned a competence and
have moved here in order that their
children may have the advantages Of
fered by their excellent public schools
and the State College.
II a young man or woman goes
wrong here it must be debited to
h%eredity. as the environment is what
one would call ideal. The contain
mating influences hat are usually
found in cities Of this size. have not
invaded Brookings. We have always
believed that environment Is a great
factor in forming character and IL you
agree with us, visit Brookings and see
IL you do not conclude at once that
the city has shown her appreciation
OF the demand of the state that she,
to a certain extent. is expected to be
a guardian to the youths who leave
home to enter college.
We could mention all the depart
ments but We found all the instruc-
tors connected with the college, not
only men OF broad culture, but special
lists in their line of work. Such men
and as a parent would select
to look after the intellectual and
moral development OF their sons and
daughters.

DR.. STOLL is

In view of an approaching event of
considerable Importance the friends of
DR.. A. II. Stoll rendered him the first
of a series of showers on Tuesday
afternoon. The affair took place at
the office of DR.. Stoll and that he was
not present to assist in the festivities
made little difference to the joyous
merrymakers. However, the doctor
arrived after a time and these kind
and loving friends remained to enjoy
his surprise and satisfaction when he
Toasted his eyes upon their handi-
work.
The spacious west room of DR..
StolIs suite was selected as the scene
of the affair, which was termed a vege-
table shower. But it was more than
that. 1t was the grandest little col
lection of everything eatable, from
cranberries to summer sausage, that
we have laid our eyes on, and there
will be nut little need of the doctor
patrOniZing local markets for at least
six months time. In a word it pic
tured the wonderful agricultural pros
perity of the Banner County of South
Dakota, and the exhibit at the Brook
ings county fair had nothing on it for
quality and abundance and when it
comes to picturesQueness it was in a
class by itself. Our poor weak pen
can hardly do it justice, and it would
have to be seen to be appreciated,
but we shall attempt to give some of
the main features.
In the center of the large room re.
posed a huge shock of prize-winning
corn and grouped about it in abund-
ance were pumpkins, squash, cabbage,
onions, potatoes, carrots, beets, par
ships, turnips, r~utabagas, tomatoes,
peppers, and cucumbers, with a few
more varieties for good measure. Sus-
corn shock were an edible looking
dried herring and a huge link Of sum
mer sausage. From the same chan
delier to each corner Of the room We're
strung ~festoons Of wienes, daintily ar
ranged in rosettes and the pictures
about the walls were set off with de-
corationS of flowers, bologna, sum
mer squash and other little novelties.
Arranged in a corner Of the shock
was a nestful of eggs with a perfectly
good chicken-picked and dressed
seated c~ontentedly thereon. But the
real headliner and in fact the last
word in this glorious and unparalleled
display, was the throne" on the north
side of the room, from which point OF
vantage the doctor now views the
grandeur of the scene below. The
throne consisted of a magnificently
upholstered chair upon a soap box
dias, and it was prettily decorated
with grass. autumn leaves and corn
stalks, while grouped at the foot were
more evidences of the productiveness
of Brookings county's soil. Above the
sea- was the Horn of Plenty, a veri-
table "chamber' of riches, containing
all of the priced fruits Of California,
the midas, and Brookings county. In
scribed on il was: The Horn of Plen.
ty-May you ever keep it full" We
could go on endlessly telling OF the
magnifcence of this display, but We
believe that we have given our read
ers some small idea OF its beauty and
grandeur and if the success OF this.
the first shower, is any criterion. the
remaining ones will be among the his
toric events Of the city.
