the work Of tearing out the old boil

installation of the new equipment
which has been purchased by the city
TO enlarge and remodel the plant. The

>oUT AFTER BIG CONVENTION

The Orr Hoffman post of the Ameri-
Legion is going to bend every eff
fort to bring the 1922 convention OF
the South Dakota department of the
Legion to Brookings, this city being
OF particular interest to the service
men of the state because of the new
vocational mems dormitory and the
large group of disabled veterans who
make their home there while attend.
ing college. This home was built
through the efforts Of the American
Legion in behalf of their wounded
comrades. On Tuesday Post Com
mander O. H. Lawrence called a meet
ing Of the delegates of the post to
the convention this year at Rapid
City and it was definitely decided to
invite the Legion men to hold their
next convention here. Facilities for
handling a convention Of this size,
for it is the largest convention of any
kind that Is ever held in the state,
were discussed and it vas decided,
although Tile uuucl tdhluS 10 sc,
Brookings can handle it better than
any other city in the state.
1t is not known whether any other
town is planning on inviting the con-
vention, but in all probability there
will be several in the field for 1t.
Brookings will have the advantage,
however, of so many superior fea
lures in the way of railroad facilities,
housing accommodations, entertain
ment features and other points that
it should be the unanimous choice for
the next convention.
A committee consisting of DR.. o.
H. Lawrence, DR.. E. H. Whitehead and
A. E. Anderson was named to wait
upon the Brookings Commercial Club
and present the plan to them for their
approval.

PLEADS FOR IRELAND

Last Friday evening at an open air
meeting In the school house park, ex-
Senator A. J. Gronna of North Dakota,
asked the people of the United States
to urge upon the congress the imme-
date recognition Of the independence
of Ireland. The senator pictured the
deplorable conditions that existed on
the Emerald Isle and cited authorities
to show that they are largely due to
the misrule OF Great Britain. The
speaker denied that the question Of
Irish independence was one of religion
and declared that both Protestants and
Catholics favored independence. He
said that the United States had recog-
niZed the independence of fifteen re-
publics in South America and Europe
in following out the principles set forth
in the declaration Of independence
framed by early American statesmen
when this nation wrested itself from
Great Britain.
The Irish question Is a prominent one
in the world today and many of our
citizens are deeply interested in it.
Senator Gronna's speech was greatly
enjoyed and he gave a good representa-.
ton Of Ireland's side Of the case. An
interesting fact in connection with the
speaker is that he is not an Irishman,
but is Of Norwegian descent.

RUST SCARE IS PURE BUNK

DR.. A. T. Evans, associate professor
of agronomy at State college, says that
the report that black stem rust is al
ready with us is erroneous and not
founded on facts. ut is very true that
we have plenty Of leaf rust in South
Dakota, but ordinarily red leaf rust
does very little damage. This rust Is
not the same as the socalled black stem
rust and. therefore, should not be con-
fused with 1t. Leaf rust Is no more re-
lated to stem rust than Marquis wheat
is to a variety Of durum. Leaf rust
never attacks the stem. Then, too, the
presence of stem rust is seldom ever
noted before the first week Of July in
South Dakota. especially in the latitude
Of Broodngs."
