riculture won him national ~recogni-
ton. The government printed several
of his bulletins and encouraged him
TO contribute to the farm press
throughout the United States.
MIR. Biggar was born neal Brook
ings, S. ID. At the age of 20 he en-
tered the South Dakota State college
at Brookings, graduating in 1910. Soon
after his graduation he was appointed
assistant agronomist at the agricul-
tural experiment station of South Da-
kota, which position he held nearly
two years, ~resigning to do graduate
work in horticulture and plant breed
ing at the agricultural college of Ore
gon. In September, 1913, Mr.. Biggar
took up work as instructor in agri-
culture at the Northern Normal and
Industrial school at Aberdeen. He re-
signed that position to go with the
bureau Of plant industry at Washing
ton, where he spent five years. Dur
ing the last half year of his service

gar devoted his time to research
work on corr root rot and other corn
diseases at Bloomington, III. Mr.. Big
CARS work in Washington took him
to many parts of the United States.
He conducted corn experiments for
the government in Ohio, Wisconsin,
Virginia, North Dakota, South Dakota,
Nebraska, Wyoming and Illinois in
varietal, acclimatization, type and cul-
tural work. In 1916 he was sen by
the department of agriculture upon an
investigational trip among the Sioux,
Omahas, Wi~nnebagoes, ~Chippewas,
Gros Ventres, Arikaras and Mandan
Indians to study primitive corn vari-
cites and to obtain information upon
primitive methods of corn culture. In
May, 1919, Mr.. Biggar was associated
with j. r. Holbert of the bureau of
plant industry in the Investigation of
corn culture. In collaboration with
Mr.. Holbert he published a bulletin
of recommendation for obtaining seed
free from disease. Two other publ
on this subject will also be
printed soon.
Mr.. Biggar is deeply interested in
boys and girls club work and as farm
editor of this paper VIII do all in his
power to make the department inter

but to the public as well.
Mr.. Biggar will spend a few weeks
becoming acquainted with his new
territory at first hand by visits here
and there so as to get in touch with
the sources Of real news. He will de-
vote his time to the development of
a farm daily which. without being
technical or didactic, will give every
day the news Of the farm and of its
manifold activities"

THE BREAD LINE

BY Riley Ryck
1t hasn't been so long ago
Jobs weren't hard to find;
Hours were short, the pay was good
Our pockets were well lined.
| wonder, did we not sometimes
The hard tasks overlook;
Or did we always do our best
To earn the wage we took?
And did we try to ave a bit,
Or did we throw away
Our kingly wages hat We might
Be dressed in garments gay?
The answer to these questions
Is rather sure to be
The key to what we're doing now,
It's very plain to me.
The man with don't care" attitude,
The man who loafed or Stacked,
Was sure to be the very first
That every boss sidetracked.
And every man who played the game
In earnest, patient way,
Is just the man the boss would keep
He's got a job today.
Most everybody likes to do
A kindly, helpful deed,
Not many people will refuse
To aid a mar in need.
But all of US would like to know
Before We hand our kale,
II men themselves are not to blame
For many a hard luck tale.

OFFICIAL CENSUS FIGURES

Through the courtesy of Senator
Peter Norbeck We have received the
official census bulletin giving the pop
ulation of South Dakota for 1920. The
population Of South Dakota in 1920
was 636,547, an increase Of 8 per cent
over the last census taken in 1910.
Of this population only 1902. S72 live in
cities and towns of over $500. The
remainder, 534,675, is classed as rural
population. 3SS,930 people in South
Dakota actually live on farms and
145,745 live in towns Of less than $500
inhabitants. From these figures may
be gained some idea of how important
the farming population is and the COM
parative insigniicance of city folks.
The population of Bookings county
in 1920 was 1919. In 1910 it was
14,17S and in 1900 it was 1861, show
ing a steady growth of about 1000 for
each ten-year period. Brookings city
is 1924, an increase of 1000 over the
1910 census.

of the county follow:
