JuIY FOURTH AT THE EAST
SIDE PARK, LAKE CAMPBELL
County Farm Bureau Picnic. Address
by w j. Kinney Of Sioux Falls

While the Brookings band furnishes
the music the clans will gather from
all parts of Brookings and Moody
counties for a real, old time, all-day
celebration at SOrenson n o
East Side park at Lake Campbell.
These gentlemen have arranged II
of the best programs possible. The
farm bureau is cooperating in the
plans and will furnish as the speaker,
w. J. Kennedy, n of Americas lead
ing authorities on livestock.
Following the opening numbers OF
the band at 10 o'clock, there will be
a game of baseball between two fast
teams. All should come prepared for
a picnic dinner at noon. In addition
to band music, Prof. II. L.. Kohler
will favor the crowd with several
vocal solos. The afternoon baseball
game will be between Aurora and
White, and will no doubt be a thriller,
if the seasons record thus far is any
criterion.
OF great interest to all who love
water sports will be the game of
water ball between the Brookings fire
department team and the Brookings
Water Dogs. To bring more action
into the game all bases and other posi-
tons will be above water. Prizes for
this and all other water sports are
offered. Two races in shallow water
for BOYS and girls under II will be
run. There will be a mems 100-yard
swim, and 50-yard swim for boys
under Is and ladies 50-yard swim
and f~ree-for-all" distance dive.

The native gave a moan-it was the
lament Of one whose crime was come

Michael to himself as he fastened the

as they neared the place where the
black men ambushed. Every man OF
the group behaved well. None showed
nervousness, even when one OF the
horses, conscious Of hidden Maroons

an attempt to get greater speed.
That was only for an instant, how

ORCHARD AND GARDEN

Gladiolas planted now will bloom
nicely next fall.
Cut back delphineum as soon as
they are through Towering. Fertilize
and cultivate and a crop of flowers
will come on in the fall.
Early peas may be followed with
some late maturing crop like beets or
carrots.
Iris may be tr~ansplanted late this
month or early next.
Stop cutting asparagus now and cul-
tivate and fertilize thoroughly. Your
next years crop will be better for It.
A single flower is often more at
tractive in a vase than a handful
damned into a vase. Flowers are
individuals. Why not treat them as
such?
Scrub stock is passing, but how
about those scrub fruit trees? You
can at least give them a tonic in the
form of a good pruning.
