MODEL ROAD NOT INJURED.
Highway Near Brookings Stands the
"EIocd Test"

Brookings. real test of we'll
planned, we'll constructed road and its
value to the community was amply
demonstrated when, despite the flood
that swept down the Sioux valley, the
mile of model road west of Brookings.
Notwithstanding it was submerged
yas left intact, together with its ap-
proaches and the cement culverts. Wa
ter poured over the road all night, but
save for the washing OF a little of the
surface soil no damage was done. The
wings on the culverts protected the
roadway and prevented the water eat
ing its way in. The showing is more
remarkable from the fact that this
model road, and the grade built just
east of it, are practically the only
roads in Brookings county to escape
damage. In close proximity to them,
and in striking contrast to them, is
the railroad crossing, a culvert and a
county bridge, all put out of commits

road was built last summer under the
supervision of a road expert sent from

WILL HUNT RELICS
BOARD OF REGENTS APPRoPRl-
ATEo $500 TO DEFRAY
EXPENSES.
OTHER ITEMS OF INTEREST
From the Capitol City, the Various
State Institutions and From
Many Different Parts of
the Sunshine State.

Aberdeen.-Prof. Fred w. Smith, OF
the normal faculty, will conduct anoth-
er excursion into the Black Hills this
summer in a further search after fos-
sis and other interesting relics of the
Hills. Prof. Nash has received word
from Secretary Ford of the board OF
regents to the effect that at the meet
ing recently held at Nermillion
$500 was appropriated for the fitting
out OF another expedition under the di-
rection of Prof. Smith.
This action on the part of the re-
gents speaks we'll for that board S
faith in and appreciation of the work
Prof. Smith did last year, and especial
ly so from the fact that he only asked
for an appropriation of $500.
The result of last summers eXpedi-
ton into the Hills was to bring back
one of the finest collections of fossils
there is in the state. These were on
exhibition at the normal a few weeks
ago and We're the cause Of a great deal
of interested comment on the part OF
the persons who availed themselves
of the opportunity to look the exhibit
over.
With the further additions that will
be made by the search this year, the
normal faculty is confident of having
ONE Of the best exhibits of its kind in
existence to put on display at the
opening of the new museum this fall.
Prof Smith has not arranged the
details of his trip as yet, but will
leave here about July in company
with several others from among the
student and faculty body and others
interested in the search, and will
spend about five or six weeks in the
Hills.

element has engaged lawyer and has
appealed to the courts in an effort to

Industrial School Exhibition.
Aberdeen.-The Northern Normal

exhibition of the work of pupils in
domestic science and manual arts
which is drawing many visitors and at
tracing much attention. Visitors
from eastern states who are familiar
with the work done in those lines in
larger educational institutions state
the exhibit at the normal is equal to
anything they have ever seen in older
praise of the up to date methods en-
ployed. Girl students are taught all
sorts of sewing, even to the proper
methods to patch boys clothes so they
will appear neat and at the same time
give IL maximum Wear, and they arc

foods to meet the necessities of var

lily of four, consisting of a middle-aged
man whose income is $50 a month,
and who pursues on out of doors oc-
cupation, his wife, one son of is and a
child of H. OF the income of $50 a
month, it is assumed TO make ends
meet, not more than $40 month must
be expended for food, and the student
is instructed how to feed the house
hold wholesomely on that amount of
money. The boys are taught practical
mechanics, and at the exhibition many

Originated SINGLE Ear Test.

Brookings. No. SO of the
University of Illinois experiment sta
ton reveals the fact that Prof. Hume,
of the state college at Brookings, is
the originator of the single-ear test
for seed corn. This is the test which
was adopted by Prof. Holden of Iowa,
and so successfully used by him in his
seed corn propaganda. 1t is not gen
orally known that Prof. Hume of
Brookings originated this test in 1904,
and published the first bulletin on the
subject. This fact should give the
state of South Dakota great confidence
in the new agronomist, who is coming
to spend his time in the Improvement
of crop conditions in this state.
Prof. Hume worked out this bulletin
in collaboration with Cyril G. Hop
kins, a graduate of the South Dakota
state college, and is now professor of
agronomy at the University of Illinoss
In this bulletin Prof. Hume stated that
the object toward which we are all
travelling is that agriculture be made
an exact science. The testing of each
ear of seed corn will certainly be a
considerable stride in that dire.tion."
DR.. Hume's 1904 bulletin explains
carefully the new method of testing
seed corn, giving directions for vari-
Gus cheap systems which might be
used by every farmer without difficult
ty, and also gives tables showing the
exact amount of time required for test
ing each bushel. He stated that one
man can test enough seed corn for 67
acres by the use of ten hours total
time, and he considered it possible to
test the vitality of every ear of corn
planted in Illinois, thereby saving
millions of dollars for that state.
The scientific development of this
method of testing seed corn is we'll
known, for it has been almost uni
versally adopted.
One or two men in other states have
made national regulations for them
selves by vigorously pushing the prop.
osition. DR.. Hume is now professor
of agronomy in the state college of
South Dakota and is devoting a good
portion of his time to Investigating the
soils and crop conditions of the state
and to explaining methods for improv-
ing the productivity OF South Dakota
farms
