VOLGA PLANE SMASHED UP

The airplane belonging to l.. w. Leib
of Volga, who with his wife few to
Sioux Falls last Thursday to attend
the flying circus, vas smashed at the
flying field when a strong wind broke
1t loose from its moorings and toppled
it yer twice. Both wings were crushed
and the rudder and elevators at the
end of the fuselage were wrecked.
The fuselage proper and the engine
were not damaged. The ship was un-
occupied at the time Of the accident
and was moored at the end Of a group
Of ships. The wind came up suddenly
and pulled the plane loose from its
stakes. The night Waterman noticed
it and endeavored to hold the ship
fast but it lifted him right up in the
air and he was forced to let &C. The
other ships on the field were not
harmed. 1t was a peculiar fact that
Lieb's ship was the only one in the
lot which was insured. The plane is
unusually large o. X. Standard with
a Curtiss motor. 1t will be difficult to
repair the damaged ship in this state
and it may be necessary to have il
shipped away for repairs.

them such a discouraging start. Not
much is known of the strength of the
Clark team but Brookings expects to
bring home a victory.
The game last Saturday at State field
was not SO one-sided as the score, q
to 0, would indicate. Honors were even
with the exception Of a brilliant stretch
in the third quarter when Aberdeen
broke loose on a number Of plays and
put across three touchdowns. All
through the first half the two teams
battled back and forth in the middle
of the field, frequently exchanging
punts. Although Aberdeen's line was
far heavier and the backfeld. of a
bigger caliber, they were unable to
make any consistent gains against
the light and shifty local team. The
Brookings team showed lots of pep
and fight, while the Aberdeen team
was stodgy and slow in motion. 1t
was not until the last part Of the first
half that Aberdeen was able to break
through for a counter. Red Nc
knight, fullback, was the outstanding
star Of the Brookings team. In the

FIREMEN'S DUCK FEED

The Brookings Fire Department en-
joyed their annual banquet and duck
feed at the City Hall last evening.
The city commissioners, city attorney,
auditor and a few honored guests were
invited to join the boys" in their
festivities and a right good time was
enjoyed by all present.
Forty ducks were sacrificed for this
suspicious occasion and still there was
hardly enough to go around, but there
was a plenty of everything else that
was good and edible, and the manner
of cooking and serving could hardly
be improved upon.
There were many of the "old guard
present and they all declared there
was nothing lacking to remind them
Of old times except the absence OF
many familiar faces who, by the i'm
mutable trick Of Father Time, had
moved away or passed into the great
beyond.

WALKING NELL VISITS TOWN

Miss Nell Walker of New York, also
known as Walking Nell" paid this
city a visit Tuesday and attracted con-
siderable attention in the business dis
trict, where she visited all the stores
with her smiling person clothed in an
unusual khaki outing costume endeav-
oring to sell her photograph for what
ever price the doner was willing to
pay. Miss Walker is walking across
the continent on a wager that she can
walk between every state capital in
the United States within a specified
time and with no other means of sup
port than the sale of her photographs.
According to the Aberdeen papers she
visited that city Monday. so 1t is not
questioned that II she keeps walking
at that rate she will break all records
and win all bets.

JOHNSON SPEAKS AT HURON

DR.. w. Z. Johnson, president Of State
college, was one of the speakers at
the cost of production conference at
Huron last Saturday under the us
pices of the South Dakota department
Of agriculture to which the leading
representatives of the various farm
organizations of the state were in
vited. Full consideration was given
to the methods by which the depart
ment expects to conduct cost of pro-
duction work as provided by law en-
acted by the last legislature.
Don Livingston, commissioner Of
agriculture. opened the conference by
giving briefly some of the activities
of the department as related to rail-
road rates, marketing, war finance cor
poration and the result of his recent
conference with officials in Washing
ton. He then placed the meeting in
charge Of Hugh n. Allen, special as
sistant, who has general charge of the
cost of production work.
Rex f. Willard, in charge of cost
Of production studies for the North
Dakota Agricultural college, gave the
leading address Of the conference, ex-
planning in detail just how this work
is managed in North Dakota and what
may be expected. He said that
the first necessary factor for profit
able farming is a knowledge of costs
of production. These facts are not
now available. The farmer Is cropping
in the dark. Farming is more compli-
Gated than any other industry, there
fore exact cost Of production figures
are difficult to obtain. He cautioned
especially that this is not a price-fix-
ing proposition. A majority of those
present agreed with Mr.. Wizards
views as to methods of procedure.
NJ. r. Benedict, secretary of the
South Dakota Farm Bureau fedora
ton, said that this organization would
lend every assistance possible to make
the work effective and to bring the
practical results back TO the farmer.
DR.. w. e. Johnson asserted that the
cost Of production work would justify
itself even II it did nothing more than
give the farmer such facts as would
enable him to know what projects on
his farm are profitable and what are
not. He paid a special compliment
to the wording of the joint resolution
Of the legislature asking that such
work be started in this state. A. j..
Wilson Of Minneapolis, manager of
the Richards Dougherty company, nc
countants, after listening to the dis
cussions. asserted that the best posi-
BILE method of procedure had been out
lined by Mr.. Willard and Mr.. Benedict.

THE SEED POTATO OUTLOOK

Prof. E. ]. Petry, head Of the botany
department of State college, has re-
Gently completed the third inspection
of potato fields producing certified po-
tato seed in the state of South Da-
kota. Certificates Of certiication are
being sent out to the various growers
whose crop measured up to the ad-
vanced standards of quality and free
dom from disease set by the South
Dakota State college and the South
Dakota Potato Growers association.
A considerable percentage of such
growers will not receive certificates
for various reasons, the chief ones
being lack of yield in certain very dry
sections, lack of attention to the eradi-
cation of weeds, lack of attention to
disease control in the seed and grow

MAKE DEEP CUT
IN LIGHT RATES
CITY COMMISSIONERS LOWER
PRICE OF ELECTRICITY
AND STEAM HEAT
ORDINANCE TAKES EFFECT DECEMBER
Light Rate Reduced to 12E Cents,
Power 8 Cents and Heat
One Dollar.

Great cheers of welcome will greet
the announcement of the passing of an
ordinance by Mayor T. 1. Flittie, Com
missioners H. B.. Mathews and E. j.
Ray at their regular meeting Monday
evening reducing the electric light
electric power to 8 cents, and steam
heat to $1.00 per thousand pounds.
These reductions will take effect on
December 1, when the new equipment
at the city power plant will be in
operation. A reduction in the cleo
trio light rates was promised to the
residents of Brookings when bonds
were voted for the construction Of the
new power units for the light plant,
and it is pleasantly fulfilled by giving
much lower rates than were expected.
1t is expected that with the new equip
ment the city will be able to operate
the plant at reduced costs and will
be able to produce electric light and
power cheap enough to make a profit
by selling it at 1914 cents. The profits
of the plant will go into a sinking fund
to pay the principal and interest of
the bonds so the taxpayers will bear
none Of the burden. The plant has al
ways been self-supporting and will now
be a greater asset to the city than
ever since it will supply current to
neighboring towns.

PRESSED
HARD BY COLLEGE
STATE MAKES STRONG SHOWING
AGAINST WISCONSIN BIG
TEN TEAM
HONORS ARE EVEN N THREE PERIODS
Coach West Expects Scrappy Game
Here Saturday With the
Huron Eleven.

That State college has the strongest
football machine in the history of the
school with promise of being the
strongest team ever developed in the
state, was evidenced by the wonderful
showing Coach Vests warriors made
last Saturday against the University
of Wisconsin, whose team is conceded
to be the best in the Big Ten confer
ence. Although the score was "a to 3
In Wisconsin's favor, the game was a
close fight and honors were even in
all except the first fifteen minutes of
play. The football critics Of the east
were greatly surprised that State col
lege was able to score on the strong
Badger team and it is of great credit
to State that they were held to such
a low score. When compared with So
to 0 defeat of the University of South
Dakota by the weaker University of
Illinois team, State college rooters feel
elated over the prowess Of their idols.
Wisconsin was obliged to keep their
first string men playing the entire
game, while Coach West used 81 men
in the contest. 1t was not until the
last five minutes of play hat the Bad
gers began playing their second team.
During the first quarter Wisconsin
made nine of her total Of II first downs,
After the first period they made but

either on offense or defense. Bachman,
Smith, Towers, Salisbury, Coffey, Sun
Diet, Thompson and Seaman all played
a great game for State. Sundet's work
at right end In this battle did much
to entitle him to preference for the
right wing position. Bachman played
an exceptionally good game at right
guard, as did Coffey at center, while
he was in, Roberts, Anderson, John
son, WEIGH, Hoon, Shcutte and Owens
all did nice work in States backfeld,
both In interference and in carrying
the ball. Art Johnson's kick which
scored State was made from between
tackles and sailed squarely between the
bars. The total yardage gained by the
Badgers was 463 as compared with 3O7
for State. The Badgers fumbled FIVE
times; State, once.
Reorganization of the State college
grid machine is the main task which
Coaches West and Enke are facing
this week in preparing for the game
with Huron college on Saturday. Les
Hoon, left half, had his side badly
strained in the game with Wisconsin,
and he and his pal, Anderson, who
played part Of the game at quarter,
have both left the college and are
lost to the team. They were both good
men but the coaches think that Owens,
Thune, WEIGH, and Art Johnson will
be able to hold down the two posi-
lions in fine shape. However, it will
take some time to get going again,
as Owens has been playing at right
half.

the game against Wisconsin and big
