her expert method of teaching the sub

of schools tried to secure her services
this spring but the students are pleas

With a Hog Motor Hogs
Grind Their Own Grain

reprint from Technical World for February
The hog ~raisers at the agricultural sta.
ton out in South Dakota make the ami
mails grind their own grain before they
are permitted to eat it-not because the
experts are too lazy, but because the
exercise has been found to be good for
the hogs. This grinding is done in a
"Hog Motor" which has a stationary
burr in the center, with additional burrs
attached to the inner edge of a drum.
The grain is poured into this drum and
openings at the bottom, attempt to root
it out with their shouts. They push
and push around after it., all the time
causing the drum to revolve and the
grain to grind into meal, which drops
down for the hogs to eat. All of this is
not only excellent for the hogs diges-
ton, but puts him also in prime shape
for the butcher.
Stock raisers explain that animals
while %fattening require exercise. The
advantage of having hogs do their own
grinding may be appreciated when it is
learned that experiments made by hog
~raisers and experts in Maine, Ohio, West
Virginia, Kentucky, Missouri and Wis
cOnsin have shown that it is more eco
nomical to feed whole grain to hogs
because the additional expense incurred
in grinding does not pay for the small
increased gain in flesh. But if that gain
can be obtained without additional ex
pense, then the meal should be fed.

subject made more attractive to the
students than the courses given by
Miss Biersdorf. After graduating
from the Zumbrota, Mimi, high school,
Miss Biersdorf entered the Winona
State Normal, from which she grad
uated from the advanced course in
1908. Since graduating from the state
normal she has done several terms
work in the Redwig, Mimi, college,
where she specialized in history. Her
popularity and efficiency as an eighth
grade teacher in the Brookings schools
is more than duplicated in her work in
the high school and the course in his
tory has become n of the strongest
in the curriculum.

TAKING CARE OF THE BOYS

A new law to furnish Offices for
more political strikers is now in effect,
1t provides for a corps to examine the
accounts OF county officers. The state
auditor has appointed eight examiners
and eight deputies under the statute
the former to receive Sc per day and
the latter 81 per day-to visit the var
ious county seats. Future legislatures
may provide for the appointment OF
more examiners to examine the ex
aminers, and so on ad infinitum. The
boys must be taken care of.--Sibley

Miss Madeline Bird

Instructor in English and Dramatic
Art
Few high schools can boast of better
qualified teachers than are found in
the Brookings schools. All are special
lists in their line and especially is this
true of Miss Madeline Bird who is to
have charge of the English depart
ment this year. After graduating from
the Detroit Central high school in
1907, she entered the Detroit Train
ing School of English and 'Eecution
from which institution she graduated
in 1909. While a student in the De-
troit Training School she took private
lessons of Miss Chaffee Noble in elocu-
ton and gave two recitals one includ-
ed scenes from various English come
dies and ~necessitated the impersona-
ton of fourteen distinct characters
which she did with such a nicely that
the papers spoke of her as a star in
dramatic art. One season she substi-
tuted for the reader in Rounds famous
Ladies Orchestra. In the fall of 1909
Miss Bird entered the University of
Michigan from which she graduated
and received the A. B. degree, June
1913. While a student at the univer-
sity she was assistant teacher in elo-
cution. She took part in several uni
versity plays and entertainments, and
the wolverine the university paper,
spoke of her on these occasions as the
star performer. The board of educa-
ton is fortunate in securing so talent
ed an instructor for this department
and the students will be pleased to
know that dramatic art and public
speaking is to be made a part of the
curriculum.

Prof. j. w. Browning

Superintendent of City Schools
Prof. Browning's explicit faith in the
boys and girls of Brookings and his
fair dealings with the children inspire
them to higher ideals and work which
in a great measure, accounts for the
great and most successful develop
ment that the schools have attained
until today they are abreast of the
best to be found. Mr.. Browning is ex-
ceptionally we'll qualified for his work
which he has so well and so satisfac-
torily demonstrated in the past two
years. He has both a normal and uni
versity training and is fully c%onvers-
methods and foremost in educational
thought. In the two years of his ad-
ministration the schools have substan-
TALLY improved in efficiency, manual
training, mechanical drawing, do
nestle science, music, public speak
ing and literary activities have been
made a part of the regular work. The
grammar grades have been organized
on the departmental plan and the
schools are thoroughly and harmon
iously organized from the first grade
up through the high school. The
schools will open Monday under the
most promising conditions and every
indication points toward a bigger and
better school the coming year than
ever before.
