team to catch a train. The only score
Of the game came in the third period
when State got the ball on Wesleyan's
tumble on the %ten-yard line and Nc
Cain carried the ball over for a touch
down.
Both the State college team and its
supporters seem entirely satisfied
with States victory over Dakota WeS-
leyan university on the latter's field
by a mere 6 to 0. However, Coach
c. A. West is not satisfied with the
offensive powers of his team. The de-

the Methodists made first down but

appeared that Wesleyan did her ut
most to score but States defense was
too stiff.
1t is quite certain that States team
showed great Improvement in the
Wesleyan contest and it is just as
certain that unless it shows a great
deal more improvement during the
coming week the Flickertails of North
Dakota university will give the Brook

On October 2, North Dakota univer-

The dope seems to indicate a de-
feat for State college this coming Sat

wGge a hard fight this week to upset
the dope sheet. There is a possibility
of doing so because the team emerged
from last Saturdays ARRAY in good
after the Aberdeen game will have

One thing is certain, that if Willadsen

CHR~YSANTHEMUM SHOW

The chrysanthemum show, one of
the wonderful features Of the year at
State college, will be held from OctO-
Der rs to 81, inclusive. All of the peo-
pie in Brookings and vicinity are in
yited to this show as many times as
they care to come. There has been
no chrysanthcmum show for three
years due to wal conditions, so the
n this fall is the object of special
efforts to make it Guido all others.
DR.. n. +. Hansen, head Of the depart
ment Of horticulture, is in charge of
he show. There will be 5000 plants
on display, including $50 varieties,
ranging from the biggest commercial
Single-stems to the tiny pOm-poms.
Among the colors viii be white, sew
eral shades of yellow, pink and red,
and flowers Of v~ariegated colOrs. There
will be no blue ones this year, much
to the disappointment of the students
who desire to have the college colOrs,
yellow and blue, represented. The
florists have been working or this
show since last June.

AN AMBITION REALIZED

The best corn in South Dakota this
year was raised by a 1~3-year-old boy.
He won first prize in the open class
at the state fair at Huron in both the
ten a lot and the bushel lot. His
name is Harold c. Larsen and his
home is in Bookings. He is a son
of Prof. and Mrs. G.. Larsen.
This boy, by his own initiative and
efforts, developed and raised the corn
that was acceded to be the best at
the state fair. Ever since Harold first
became interested in corn, it has been
his ambition to win that prize. Here
is the story of how he achieved it.
He first became interested in corr
by attending a short corn school held
one winter at the college. The sub
ject appealed to him at the outset and
before the short term was over he
had a good understanding Of corn. In
the corn judging contest which closed
this corn school ne took second place.
The next spring he started raising
corn. He obtained two ears OF pure
bred yellow dent corn which he used
as sire plants. In his patch he planted
kernels from these two ears in every
third row, the rest Of the patch being
planted with ordinary good grade of
corn. By detasseling all but the sire
rows he succeeded in cross-fertilfzing
the entire patch with the pure bred
corn. In developing his corn he aimed
at three things; first, to produce ears
with deep kernels, straight rows, and
well filled tips and butts; second, to
yield two ears on each stalk; and
third, corn that tassels early thus Civ
ing a longer period to mature ears.
He has succeeded well as is evidenced
by the prizes which he won. Besides
the prizes won at the state fair he
has won many others.

city schools at Bryant, narrowly
escaped drowning last Friday evening
shortly before 500 o'clock when the
automobile in which she was riding

sewage outlet. She was pinned under
the car and submerged in the water
until the quick efforts of Leonard
Ladd, who vas driving the car, Fred
Wills and Will Sayre e~xtricated her.
She was taken to the hospital immc.

had suffered no more than a severe
shock and had got some water in her
lungs. She was unconscious for a
few hours after the accident, but at
1000 o'clock the next, morning she
said she was feeling fine.
Leonard Ladd, who is teaching this
year at Bryant, was driving the a at
the time Of the accident. He was
taking a party of the alumni Of State
college to BrOokings to hear the pipe

lights on his car failed him when he

Don Livingston, director of markets
for South Dakota, has been appointed
a member Of the Farmers Marketing
Committee OF Seventeen, which is re-
resenting the American Farm Bureau
Federation in seeking for basic facts
upon which a sound and comprehen-

may be based.
The Committee of Seventeen met at
Chicago last week and effected a per.
manent organization. ii was decided
to hold a second meeting in Chicago
on November 4, 5 and s, at which time
ment of national reputation and promj.
nent in marketing affairs will be
brought before the committee to dis
cuss both general and specific features
OF the entire marketing problem and to
answer such questions as the commit.
tee may ask.
1t was decided to employ competent
economists to investigate and report
on certain features of the marketing
problem. Much data must be collected
in addition to the reports to be made
on the methods and plans of the diff
ferent cooperative marketing organ

largest crowd he eve saw gathered to
witness the G. A. r. parade, down the
streets of the city, among whose gray
bearded ranks bravely limped many

DFz1AY EVENING
GIFT OF ALUMNI ASSOCIATION
FORMALLY PRESENTED TO
STATE COLLEGE
PRESENTATION SPEECH BY H.C. SOLBERG
Musical Program by j. j. Beck o.
Minneapolis, and Members OF
College Faculty.

An event which the Alumni asSocia-
ton of State college has long looked
forward to took place last Friday even
ing at the college auditorium when the
new 5000 pipe organ was formally
dedicated and presented to the college.
The transfer of the title to the organ
by Prof. II. c. Solberg to President
w. L. johnson marked the end of a
movement planned by the alumni at
a meeting held in 1912, when the late
the association present an organ to
their alma mater. The dedication ex-
ercises were presided over by B. H.
SChaphorst, president Of the Alumni
association. Prof. II. B. Mathews, sec
rotary and treasurer of the ~assOcia-
ton and also of the pipe organ fund,
gave an outline of the history of the
organ. Prof. II. c. Solberg, who prob
ably devoted more time and effort to
the achievement of the organ than any,
one else, was chosen to give the pre-
sentation speech. With well chosen
words he expressed the sentiments Of
the Alumni association in presenting
this gift. President Johnson responded
with a fine speech fitting to the occa-
sion.
The musical program of the after
noon which followed the formal pre-
sentation and acceptance in the even
ing introduced Mr.. John Jacob Beck,
organist of st. Stephens church, Min
neapolis, and a member of the faculty
of the McPhail School of Music, and
three of the recent additions to States
W faculty, Miss Pearl Johnson, So
prano; Miss Anne Coughlan, violinist,
and Miss Hazel Pink, accompanist.
Mr.. Beck presented his numbers in
three groups, representative of mod
ern American composers and classic
German and French composers. The

lucid Interpretation. The two mum
Dudley Buck, and I'm Summer" by
G.. A. Stebbins, were both idyllic in

powerful machine that Brookings high
school placed against them on the
local football field last Saturday.
When the adding machines had fin
ished totalling the score, it stood SIS
to 5 in favor of Brookings. Marshall
made the first tally at the opening
of the game by dropping over a nice
drop kick from the field for three
points. The local boys managed to
score three touchdowns in the first
period without much trouble. And
from then on it VAS just one merry
chase to goal posts. Marshall played
a plucky game but their greatest weak
ness was in tackling. Sundet, Ryger
and Johnson ran away from them all,
after frs. running through or over
the entire Marshall team. Overhead
play was not resorted to at all by the
BroOkingS team. The game was re-
plete with spectacular runs, some of

the field. Marshall had the ball only
a few minutes during the game. Sew.
eral of the visitors were injured and
had to be taken out of the game.
Crippled, though they were, they re-
manned full of fight up to the last
whistle.
The crowd at the game Saturday
afternoon was not large and seemed
to indicate an apathy upon the part
Of the Brookings people toward the
work Of their high school team, which
looks like a sure championship win
ner. Coach Armstrong has developed
a fighting machine which should fill
citizens with pride. 1t is composed
of Brookings boys who have the
Brookings spirit bred into them. They
deserve the whole-hearted support AID
encouragement of all.
Coach Harold Hoover, the mentor
OF the Marshall team, is a Brookings
boy and former football star at State
College. He was greeted by all Of his
old friends while in the city.

DOLLAR DRIVE BEGINS

Many of the automobiles in Brook
ings county have a little sign on them
which tells the world that they have
donated their dollar to the good roads
campaign Of the South Dakota De-
velopment association. Robert Henry,
cashier of the First State bank at
Volga, is in charge of the drive in this
county which has been designated by
the state finance committee to be run
during the week of October 25 TO 80,
inclusive. During this week a dollar
drive will be conducted in every com
munity in the state at which time
every automobile OF truck owner will
be asked to contribute one dollar to-
ward good roads for every motor We
hicle he owns. The slogan of the
South Dakota Development associa-
ton is better highways and hard sur
faced roads for South Dakota. The
association is composed of all of the
commercial clubs and other civic or
CARNATIONS in the state. Automobile
owners in this county will not be slow
or backward in turning in their dol
lars, since they have been harassed
so much with bad roads. The move
ment is welcomed here.

Al HAVE FARM BUREAUS

In all South Dakota has SO counties.
Though shown on the map, several
of these counties are not organized.
There are about eight counties which
are largely occupied with Indian res
ervations and there are several which
are so thinly populated that they can
not organize for farm bHreau work.
Only about SIS counties can incorpo-
rate as farm bureaus under u law ;
Al Of these are already doing farm
bureau work.
The following Al counties now have
farm bureau and employ county
agents, and several employ in addition
a woman worker for home demonstra-
ton work or for boys and girls club
work. Where no mar is employed
local women leaders assist the county
agent in organizing girls clubs work:
Beadle, Brown, Butte, Clark, Cooling
ton, Clay, Corson, Day, Deuel., Dewey,
Douglas, Edmunds, Fall River, Faux,
Grant, HaakOn, Hamlin, Hand, Han
sun, lluSlICS, JoNhSOh, JCi oult, ooilS',
Kingsbury, Lake, Lawrence, Lyman,
McCOok, Mellette, Miner, Minnehaha,
Moody, Pennington, Roberts, Sphinx,
Stanley, Sully, Turner, Union, Wal
worth, Yankton.
1t should be stated that there are
about $500 agricultural counties in
the United States, and about 1900 Of
these have farm bureaus. In the state
of Iowa every county does farm bureau
work. Minnesota, Nebraska, Montana
and Wyoming and North Dakota being
the other states surrounding South Da-
kota, are all strong farm bureau states.
In addition these and all other agri-
cultural states now have state farm
bureaus, being a federation of the
county farm bureaus, and the states
have federated into the American
Farm Bureau association.
This farm movement is the biggest
opportunity that has come to Ameri.
can agriculture, and therefore to the
people at large.

college returned Tuesday night from
Chicago, H., where they won first
place in the butter judging contest in
the National Dairy Products show held
in that city. They stood in fourth
place in the average for all products.

ants. Richard Gardner was next, TAX.
ing ninth place, Clifford Peck, third
ranking thirteenth, and David Kopland

State college team did not rank so
high, but was thirteenth among q
teams. The team was especially
trained in butter judging and it was
gratifying to the college to learn that
they ranked first in the United States.
