When a man is nearly frozen from a
ten mile drive on a cold winter day he
will hardly stop to read a plank or
fence advertisement; but a man at
home in his arm chair with his legs
crossed reads his Register, and while
he is feeling good and has plenty of
time picks out the live business men
from the advertisements and makes up
his mind where he will trade on his
next trip to town.
Old time residents of Brookings will
be sorry to learn of the death of 0. II.
Parker, which occurred at the home

was the father of Mrs. E. L. Moore and
Mrs. I. D. Spooner Of this city, and
was one of the early residents OF

sioner for a number of years and
afterward state land commissioner, re-
moving to the west about fifteen years

Regent T. W. Dwight of Sioux Falls,
and Prof. Randlett of the North Da-
kota Agricultural college, met with
President Slagle and members of the
agricultural faculty at the college on
Friday to discuss the agricultural ex-
tension work to be carried on in this
state under the direction of the college.
In last weeks issue the Register gave
the general plan of the work, as ex-
planned by Regent Dwight, and that
plan will be followed with but little
change. 1t will be impossible to make
any definite arrangements to go on
with the work until it has been deter
mined just what the U. S. congress
and the state legislature does in the
way of appropriations. There is now
a bill before the legislature a%ppropriat-
ing $4,000, and the Smith-Leeyer bill
before congress calls for $4,000 more,
but YOU can never tell what a legisla-
tive body is going to do, so the start
ing of the work will have to await the
pleasure of the gentlemen at Pierre
and Washington.
