The Register Is this week printing
an excellent report of the Sterling
Literary Society. We are always glad
to get news from any section of the
county and n Of u readers will
confer a favor by sending it in.

Percy Kennard last week purchased
a couple of pure bred Poland China
hogs from J.. X. Campbell OF Slayton,

young farmers and believes that he

There is considerable good stock in
Brookings county at the present time,
but there is ROOF for more and the
sooner the farmers go into the stock
business and out of the grain business
the more prosperous they and the
whole county will be. That is why we
are glad to make special mention OF 1T
when a young farmer goes into the
stock business. 1t is the right road,
and Percy had the right kind of train
ing before be branched out for himself
to make a success of it.
