in what city Professor Richards will
locate, but it will undoubtedly be either
Oakcs or Glendale.
The work that Professor Richards
will do will be of the same character
as that carried on by the other field
agents throughout the state. He will
pay special attention to the growing Of
better corn, alfalfa, crop rotation and
live stock.
That section of North Dakota is we'll
auapted for live stock, and the farmers
tncrc are becoming greatly interested
in this phase of diversified farming. In
Professor Richards they will undoubt-
cdly have the best i've stock man in
.ne state, and he is also conversant
with all other phases Of modern farm
ing methods.
The Better Farming Association now
has eight men in the southeastern part
of the state. Their work is giving
splendid results and this addition to
the force will give that part of the
state higher average in the caliber
of its best farming experts.
Professor Richards, by accepting
this position, continues in close con-
nection with the Agricultural College
and it is probabl. that after his
health is recuperated ne will once more
become a member Of the college fac

ANNUAL FUNNY STUNT
! TOMORROW NIGHT.

Everything is in readiness for the
Indoor base ball game to be played at
the high school gymnasium between
the Board of Education and the Oakes
High School. The Board will feel the
loss of Mccartney, The star south-paw
pitcher. keenly. But number of the
boys are trying out their wings. The
sore spots in the arms are gradually
being worked out, and the team prom
ises to show that they ca come back.
The board feels that if they can only
get their speed merchant Root on the
paths, that they will surely score. The
other night Root made the circuit of
the bases in 90 minutes. This is con-
|sidered marvellous time! Bush and
Ferber, two old heads at the game, are
c1rated on making long hits. In prac-
tice last week Ferber knocked out the
longest hit seen on the local floor when
the ball went for total of 36 inches.
Bush, some years ago, will be remem-
bered as having watched Mathewson
pitch. Daddy" Coulter is positive that
he can do the catching stunt to perfec-
ton. That Coulter is still considered
the best back stop in Oakes is evil

tice game only 20 pass balls were cred
tied up to him. It is thought that If

in the lineup. The board feels that with
Bunday on third and one score needed
to win that Bunday could fall down.
touch home plate and so win the game.
There is not the slightest apprehension
but that the fielders will "cover the
ground" The only fear is that they
may fall down and cover too mucl,
ground. Be on hand to see the game.
1t will be the hardest fought contest
on the local floor this year. Admission
will be only ten cents. Remember the
place, the time is sharp and the price
is ten cents.

the best corn experts in the United
States have been secured for the oc-
casion.
The doors of the show room will be
thrown open to the public on Tues
day morning and will be open each
day and evening until Friday night.
Tuesday will be Mansfield Day, We'd
Desday has been designated as School
Day, Thursday and Friday as Farm

gagged in the study of agriculture will
find it very profitable to spend one
or more days at the show. The Ex-
pertinent Station will install one of
their illustrative exhibits and a ma
chine for making the moisture deter
mination of corn, wheat oats and other
cereals will be in operation each day.
Arrangements have been made to

willing captives as the program pro-
crossed Not a flaw musically or
otherwise, maTed the entire perfor-
nance and the program was rendered
with all the eclat and finesse of a
professional production. The singing
of the chorus was a marvel of en-
semble work and their tone grada-
tions, worked out in perfect unison,
showed the high class training of the
last year and half. They have
learned to sing completely under the
dominating control of the directors
baton. This alone makes possible
the expression of the artistic inter
probation of their leader, in which
art Mr.. Coup is past master. The
artists became very enthusiastic over
the work of the chorus saying it was
indeed beautiful and worthy of the
highest commentator. In fact they
declared the work of our chorus to be
superior to that of the May Festival
at Nashville, Tenn.
The audience was not only cul
tured but a sympathetic and appreci
