South Dakota national guard organi-
cations will hold their annual encamp-
ment at FIT. Meade, Sturgis, S. ID. this
year, according to an announcement
received by Capt. j. p. Soderstrum Of
Company E, 1876 Field Engineers.
According to the order from Adju-
tant General Halle, the annual en-

gineer companies from Huron and
Madison will be in camp at the same
time with Col. Boyd Wales in com
mand OF the camp.
1t is required that three officers and
so men from the local company must
attend. Captain Soderstrum says,
This will be impossible unless we can
get more local men, who can attend
camp at that period"
This encampment will be at a time
Of the year when every one is plan
ming a vacation. A better place could
not be chosen for scenic beauty than
FIT. Meade. 1t is down in a little val

great opportunities for seeing the
wonderful scenery Of the Black Hills.
Bear Butte is one Of the many scenic
features of the Hills. Anyone who has
never seen the wonders which nature
created in our state should not allow
this opportunity to pass.
The camp duties will not be siren
uous, and ample gymnasium facilities
are afforded the men. The days work
will be eight hours, with full pay, while
at camp. Captain Soderstrum has
been instructed to obtain the coOpera-

this spring from May to some late
date. The event was very success
full last year ever though the day was
cold and windy and this year a num-
Der of additional schools were intend
ing to enter.
Directions for an Outdoor Athletic
Test" were sen to the teachers in the
winter but the late spring has made
practice almost impossible and besides
the farm boys and girls are needed
Saturdays at home for the same rea-
son. The test is not meant to lead
up merely to a county contest but pro-
vides a scheme whereby each pupil
completes with a standard which has
been worked out for a pupil of his age,
weight and height, and contributes to
the standing Of his school as COM
pared with others. Record blanks are
being sent out to those schools request

names Of the pupils having a high
enough average to be honor pupils,
the names OF class champions, and the

take the place Of the Field Day. One
is to have a big Play Day the latter

FIVE CORN CLUBS ORGANIZED

A local Boys Corn club has been
organized in each County Commission
er's district in Brookings county.
These clubs are located at Sinai, Oak
wood, Oake Lake, Aurora and Brook
ings. The boys will each grow an acre
of corn, which is being planted with
the very best seed that can be OBJ
tanned.
Boys and corn are two Of the best
crops grown in the county, and the
least that should be done is to give
them a chance for the fullest develop
ment possible. Brookings county boys
have stood at the top in club work in
South Dakota. The record yield of
corr raised Oh n acre was made by
a Brookings county boy, and exhibited
at all corn shows last year.
The County Commissioners are to
be congratulated in backing up the
boys in this work. They are offer.
ing cash prizes for local corn shows to
be held by these five clubs next fall.
There are other cash prizes for the
highest yield of orn grown on one
acre in the county this year.

FARM BUREAU PICNIC JULY 4

The biggest picnic that probably has
ever been pulled off in Brookings
county will be held at Lake Campbell
July 4. Old Brookings county is going
to have a revival of the whole com
munity. Several towns and communi.
ties have already informed the Brook
ings County Farm bureau that they
will support the big picnic. So far no
celebration has been announced and
no plans made by any Of the towns
in the county.
The best bands in the county will be
on hand early with plenty of music to
keep up our pep for the day. Baseball
games, sports on land and water and
contests for all comers have been ar
ranged. Swimming and fishing are
good. Families will take their eats
along and enjoy an old time picnic din,
ner. Plenty Of shade can be found
for all.
Ed Sorenson and Jim Brooke are
making plans nov for several special
features at the lake to be used July
4th. This place is being developed as
the entertaining grounds of Brookings
county.
The Farm bureau will have one of
the best speakers in the United States
here to give an address on farm or.

STATE OF A

The state Of trade over the country
as reported by Bradstreet's for last
week showed more optimism. Slightly
better retail trade and crops, higher
commodity prices and upward surge in
Industry. Construction Lines lead in
latter, but textile prices stronger. April
shows little effect of coal strike on
industry. Unemployment decreased
outside of coal and textile lines. Build
ing activity stimulates lumber, cement
and hardware. Auto manufacturers
reported paying premiums for steel.
Failures heavy still, but ebb in tide
visible. Daily bank clearings largest
since December. Gain in blast fur
naces and output in April despite
strike. Lower Mississippi valley flood
and rains in Texas will make cotton
planting late. Season 90 q whole IL
backward. but good weather could
make big change for better. Security
! marets strong.

Stout, Cram and Welty
Are Mainstays

The first big college track and field
meet of the season will take place
next Saturday on State field when
State college meets the team from
Hamline university Of st. Paul. Coach
West has been working hard with his
squad of track and field artists and
they are in shape to give Hamline
plenty Of competition in all events.
In this test meet of the season, the
real strength of State college will be
shown and local fans will find that
State has one Of the strongest teams
in years.
Monte Martin is doped to be the in
dividuai point winner Of the meet, be-
ing in fine form for the dashes and
pole vault. Captain Salisbury, state
record holder in the discus, and Stout,
champion pole vaulter, will be sure
winners of their events il they
sufficiently from the injuries they re-
ceived at the Drake relays to compete
in Saturdays meet. State has another
invincible athlete in Cram, the phen-
omenal long distance runner, who will
place in the mile and two mile events.
Welty and Thompson are picked for
the winners in the hurdles.
Hamline has a high jumper who Is
in a class by himself and State will
be unable to wrest the honors away
from him. Hamline has strong en-
tries in the distance runs in Brandies
and Kerfoot, who will push Cram to
the limit. Hamline won a triangular
meet last Saturday with st. Thomas
and Manchester, so il State defeats
them next Saturday it will add much
glory to the Yellow and Blue.

BROOK|NGS WINS
500 VALLEY MEET
EACH EVENT HOTLY CONTESTED
BUT LOCALS WIN WITH
SAFE MARGIN
FlANDREAU BOYS RUN A CLOSE SECOND
Hutchendorf, Whitehead and Sherman
Are Leading Stars for the
Red and Black

BroOkings high school track team
field meet held here last Saturday aft
rnoon by a safe margin over Elan
dreau, White and Watertown, the prin-
cipal contestants. AT the final count
Brookings had 40 points, Flandreau 80
and Watertown 10. Brookings also
won the banner in the half mile relay
rae in a close and exciting contest.
The weather conditions last Satur-
day were not at all favorable for a
fast meet, but in spite Of these handi-
several events. State records were ap-
preached in several events and it is
likely that some of the athletes who
participated in this meet last Satur-
day will break state records next Fri
day when the official high school
meet will be held here. The stars
last Saturday were Hutchendorf Of
Brookings, who had everything his
Own way in the high jump and also
won the broad jump; Walsh of Water
town, who took honors in the mile and
half mile; Johnson of Flandreau, who
threw the discus with marvellous ease
and perfection Of form; Jamison Of
| White, who broke the tape in the cen
fury and 220-yard dashes; Sherman
and White head Of Bookings who took
the hurdles in wonderfully fast time.
Bookings had sitter competition
this year than in many years previous
and it is apparent that if Brookings is
to maintain state championship laurels
which they have held for two success
sive years, the boys will have to work
hard and put out the best that there is
in them. They will also need the sup
port of the public and their fellow stu
dents in the big meet next Friday,
May 10, which will undoubtedly be the
largest and fastest high school track
meet ever held in the state.
