BOYS INSPECT CROPS

The class in crops and soils at
Brookings high school, unde r Prof.
w. p. Beard, made an inspection trip
on Tuesday to the projects the mem
bers are carrying IN. One boy did not
make the trip because he thought his
corn needed cultivation more than lie
needed the trip. In all the fields Wis
tied the various factors in crop pro
ductiOn were considered. If a boy
had too many weeds to suit the class
he was quickly informed of the fact,
or if some soil condition was not right
the same thing happened.
After visiting several projects the
class inspected the college plots under
the direction of DR.. Evans. One Of
the main things gained from this visit
vas information on crop diseases. 1t
stuck too, for during other visits later
in the day various symptoms of corn
rot and other diseases were noted by
the class.
From the plots the next stop was
the college grove where a picnic din
ner was the feature. However the
dessert course of ice cream had to be
eaten in the high school shop on AZ.
count of rain.
The next stop was at a corn project
that stood out as an example of clean
corn and then the next boy had an
unusual field of oats for this year it
is breast high to a man. In passing
through town again a brief stop was
made on Sixth street at Fred Killings
immaculate garden. After visiting a
plot of soy beans and two more of
fine orn the class went to Lake Camp
bell to inspect moisture conditions
there. Several samples of soil were
brought up from the bottom by the
divers, but not in their hands.
The projects visited are a part of
the boys school work. Their plans
were made, seed tested, soil studied,
and much of the early work done in
school. The boys can tell you just
how many horse hours, man hours
and what cash outlay there is on their
crops to date. The projects range from
M to ten acres in size. The boys
are raising in all about 40 acres OF
corn, one and one-half acres OF pota-
toes, 8 acres of oats, and 20 acres OF
~buckwheat.
Next year these boys are going to
study animal husbandry and will be
raising hogs. sheep and cattle. Many
Of them already have their animals
bought for this work and will feed
their crops to them along with their
study of animal h~usbardry.

WISCONSIN PICNIC A SUCCESS

In spite of the peppery shower Of
rain that fell at the opening Of the
Wisconsin picnic Tuesday noon at the
Tourist camp east of Bookings, the
large crowd of Badgers from all parts
OF the county had a most enjoyable
time. The shower lasted only a short
time and the picnickers took shelter
under tables, trees and automobiles
until it passed over Following the
picnic dinner Frank Sherwin took
charge of the program and made the
opening address. Rev. B. A. Benson
gave a very interesting talk about the
early days in Wisconsin and related
many amusing incidents. Geo. p. Sex
auer made a talk which included many
humorous anecdotes and j. p. Cheever
also spoke. A. F. Grimm and Rev.
B. A. Benson were then called upon
to choose up sides for a spelling match.
Mr.. Sherwin pronounced the words
from an old-time spelling book and
the casualties on both sides were
heavy, but as the time was drawing
late, and the remaining spoilers on
each side seemed unlikely to make
any mistakes, the bee was declared
a draw. Various races and a ball
game followed.

RAIN BREAKS DROUGHT

The dry spell that has been the prin,
cipal worry Of the farmers and others
owe the state the last two weeks was
broken Monday and Tuesday when
heavy showers visited nearly every
section of the state. Bookings and
immediate vicinity escaped the greater
part of these showers, only a light
%dOwnpOur of a few minutes duration
struck this city, but the state IN gen
eral was greatly benefited by the
rains. Good showers are reported at
Aurora and Elkton and other parts
Of the county. Over a half an inch
Of rain fell at Huron early Wednesday
morning according to measurements
taken by the government weather blu.
eau Official reports indicate good
rains at Yankton, Watertown, Redfeld
and in scattered areas in other parts
of the state. A hail storm cut a wide
swathe through Lincoln county Tues
day afternoon damaging crops in a
strip about three miles wide across
the county. The farmers in that sec,
ton had exempted their crops from
the state hail insurance benefits SC
their loss will be severely felt. Hail
has also been reported from MOODY
county.

A MAMMOTH
FAMILY REUNION
GOOD SPIRITS PREVAILED AT
FARM BUREAU PICNIC
YESTERDAY
ESTIMATE CROWD At THREE THOUSAND
Work Of the Organization ~EIoquently
Explained by r. c. Pollock and
Pres. w. S. Hill.

A crowd estimated at three thou
sand persons thronged the picnic
grounds yesterday at the Brookings
county Farm Bureau picnic held on
the Goodfellow farm at the south
edge of Lake Tetonkaha, the most sue
cessfui celebration of its kind eve
held in the county. The crowds gath
cred early bringing picnic baskets with
them for the mammoth picnic dinner
that was served at noon. A commu
nifty spirit pervaded the entire gath
ering SO that it resembled a huge fam
lily reunion. Everyone who attended
received IN inspiration of the united
purpose and the hospitable %neighborli.
ness of every citizen Of the county.
The value of this gathering in promot-
ing the development of the county and
instilling the booster spirit in every
citizen cannot be estimated.
The place of the picnic was first
announced to be at Lake lakewood
but at the last minute it was necessary
to change the place to the Goodfellow
farm. The roads were plainly marked
directing the route to the changed To-
cation SO visitors found their way with
out difficulty. After the picnic dinner
had been disposed of Tom Maher,
president of the Bookings county
Farm Bureau, gave the address of well
come followed by an address on Brook.
ings county by III county agent, Harry
j. Boyts, to whose tireless energy the
success Of the picnic was largely due.
w. S. Hill, president of the South Da-
kota Farm Bureau Federation, gave
a fine talk on the work of the farm
bureau is doing in this state. The
principal speaker Of the day was II. G..
Farm Bureau Federation. In his ad-
dress he emphasized the need and the
beenits derived from close organiza.
ton and illustrated his talk with many
rof the country. Ray Barnett intro.
duced theNspeaker.
A big program of sports, including
foot races, horse races, tug-of-war and
similar events were staged which at
tracted great interest. Elkton failed
to show up with their ball team to
play with Volga for the championship
OF Brookings county, so a baseball team
was picked up in Bookings, including
many veterans at the game but in
need OF practice and training, who
crossed bats with the Volga team.
The game resulted in a victory for
Volga by a score of 7 to 2, but every
one was pleased with the exhibition
and derived a great deal of enjoyment
from watching the contest. Doc Nc
Cain and Sponsler composed the
Brookings battery. Mccain held the
heavy Volga hitters pretty close in
the early part of the game, but weak.
ened in the last few frames when
most of the scores were made.

A remarkable inCrea

A remarkable increa the attend
ance at the summer =" ion of State
college was noted this year when the
registration on Monday, the opening
day, was fifty per cent higher tina
the entire number enrolled in summer
school last year. About $50 students
have enrolled already and the total
registration is expected to reach 800
for the session. According to Prot.
H. B. Mathews, director of the sum
mer term, the work is starting Off
smoothly, indicating a most successful
term. A larger percentage of students
are taking advanced work and educa-
tional subjects than usual. The first
convocation was held Tuesday with
DR.. w. f. Johnson, president Of the
college, as the principal speaker.
The umlner session at State college
is intended especially for those who
wish to take work in agriculture, man.
ual training, or home economics, either
for the purpose of preparing them
selves to teach the subjects or to Sc
cure college credit. Review of the
common branches will also be offered
throughout the session.
Students of the summer session will
have opportunity to observe the work
that is being done on the experiment
plots of the. station, and also the ex-
periments that are in progress in live
stock and dairy husbandry.
Special opportunities are also af-
forded in the summer term for rural
teachers. Prof. w. II. Burr, who has
won national fame by reason of his
outstanding work in introducing agri-
culture into his rural schools and as
supervisor Of vitalized agriculture in
the schools of Nodaway county, Mis-,
souri,, will have charge of the courses
in agricultural education. Rural teach
ers and principals of consolidated
schools will be greatly interested in
this work.
The Institutional force is largely
from the faculty, outside instructors
including: Superintendent S. w. John
son, Brookings; Supt. A. A. Coulson,
Volga; Supt. E. F. Voss, Dcland; Prin-
cipal NJ. c. White. ~Brookings; Mrs.
