subscription to the Register.
The A.. A. Meeker family arrived
from Illinois last week and have taken
possession of the Shepard farm just
east of the city. The Register is
pleased to welcome these good people
to our community and trust they will
enjoy their new home and the excel
lent educational advantages that
Brookings affords.
Hearty and earnest cooperation is
the happy solution of binding the in
terests of the town and the country to-
gether and thus assisting in advancing
the interests of all concerned. The
town depends upon the support of the
country and the country needs the
town. Our interests are mutual, let's

Carelssness in dress is held by ply
sicians to have been the cause of
much sickness and many deaths in
Aberdeen and vicinity the past two
weeks. The warm weather prompted
persons to go out of doors insutficiently
clothed and la grippe, bronchial
trouble have been frequent. There has
been nearly a score of deaths in that
section within three weeks.
Arnold Seward, son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Simon Seward, of Como, and Miss
Nellie Thompson, of st. James, Mimi,
were married at the brides home on
February Is. They arrived here the
latter part of last week and they will
go to housekeeping on the Simon So
ward farm in Oslo which the groom
has rented for the ensuing year. The
bride has visited in this n~eighborhood
before and Mr.. and Mrs. Seward are
receiving the congratulations and best
wishes of friends.-Volga Tribune.
A merchant in a neighboring town
this year cost him 54 cents for every
/ 500 worth of goods sold. He used
half a page of his local newspaper
each week for his business announce
ment, and says that as long as people
read newspapers he will continue to
advertise. There's a man possessed
of a good head. Just as o o as mer-
chants begin to look upon advertising
as a branch of the bus ness, which re-
quires as much care as any part of it,
then will advertising pay. Honesty,
force, originality and persistency in
advertising makes it a paying invest
ment.

Frank M. Ellis and Charles f. Hall
have traded their interest in the Brook
ings Produce Co. to Charles Martinson
for the Neal eighty northeast of town.
These gentlemen were moved to do
this by the fact that their mercantile
business required all their time and by
the further fact that none of the
other merchants would lend their sup
port. 1t is thought that the change
will make the business prosperous and
also enable it to make and maintain
an even better market. The business
has been a winner from the start, the
retiring gentlemen having realized
twenty per cent on their investment
for the year. They have promised to
lend the business every assistance
possible and if the other merchants
will boost just a little the business
should grow rapidly. Mr.. Martinson is
a hustler and should be a valuable
man for the company. He will take a
position with the concern, beginning
April LIST.
