He said he wouid spend two or three days here.

"I cannot, of course." said Mr. O'Hara, "give out details of my case In advance, except to say that Bert Collyer welcomes a full investigation of the affair. He will also say this: "There was enormous betting in Chicago on the now famous Red-Girits series and the sudden flood of money was poured in, one day before the serles opened on the proposition that the Giante would take a majority of the games. Investigation has shown that plenty of money was wagered in New York and now I am trying learn the exact state of affairs that prevailed among betting circles in Cincinnati.

When he pre-empted his quarter of land in old Fairview precinct the earlier settlers nearer the Missouri river made fun of him and said the country would never be settled that far west of the river.

PUGSLEY, President, South Dakota State College, in Wisconsin Country Magaine No doubt in the heart of every young man who enters an agricultural college to seek an agricultural education there is the desire or intention to return to old home farm or to some other farm and there put Into practice the lessons he hag learned in the class room and laboratory. Certainly that is where the greatest personal enjoyment is to be found and where a man trained in the science and practice of farming can render a great service to the nation.

But the last few years of depressed conditions on the farm have served to dishearten many and they are inclined to think that opportunity lies elsewhere than in agriculture. Great Need for Trained Men I should tike to remind the young ten very properly devote himselt to agricultural research, agricultural, education work, or agricultural There has been a tremendous development in agricultural selence and many sides of It have become specialized. It is my thought that too many specialists can not be developed and there is a decided movement on foot to the efforts of our best minds and brains in research work, other worth itnes- while of and endeavor. remunerative as New Fields of Opportunity There are continually being opened up new fields of opportunity for the man with the agricultural training. Our new federal department of agriculture, the state departments, the agricultural colleges, and the great feld of extension work require new men for new lines of Investigation and development.

have in mind especially the study of the economic problems involved in marketing and distribution, and in the cooperative effort among farmers for various purposes. Until a few years ago, relatively little systematic work had been done to aid in the solution of the complex problems arising in connection with the distribution of farm products. The economic side agriculture offers one of the biggest fields for trained men and there 18 a dearth of men with such training. It is unnecessary to name the hundreds of avenues into which an agriculturist might turn for his opportunity. Suffice it to say that agriculture must prosper.

It will take men of brains and training to make it prosper and that spells, opportunity, now men in and the in the agricul- futural colleges of the country today, LEAGUE VOTERS PLANNING YEAR Will Hear New Constitution and Reports and Discuss Work of 1924 on Wednesday The first reading of the new constitution Women for the Minnehaha, League Wednesday of Voters afternoon following the luncheon at the Cataract hotel which will open the fall and winter season for the organization.

HURON GRIDMEN GET LATE START High School Team, Under Coach Eide, New Mentor, Will Play Sioux Falls November 10 BY STAFF CORRESPONDENT Huron, Sept. Eide, new man at Huron high school, has arrived in Huron and is getting things lined up for the opening of the football season. He is a littie pessimistic over, the fact that school does not open until after the state fair, September 17, this year, thus giving the team a very late start.

This 18 especially unfortunate considering that the first game is booked for September 28. Coach Eide was unable to make a detailed statement concerning prospects as he has just arrived here and is not acquainted with the situation. He has spent the summer a special in football at the University of Illinois and brings to Huron two three years of experience besides this special training. He appears to be a man who will be able to make the best of whatever material offers itself. Huron high faces a stiff achedule, so far as it has been arranged, with the strength of the team doubtful.

Five men of the Arst string were lost through graduation, Schultz, Reed, Captain Roberts, Porta, West, Wheatrick, Manwaring and Chase, of first string calibre, are expected to be back in the game. Besides these are a unmber of men who made good showing last season and are expected to come out strong, A few new men who have had experience are expected to enroll. Among these is a man from. Wheaton, Minnesota, who has played three at quarterback in Wheaton high school and a man named Abbot from Nebraska, who claims to have had considerable expertence. Little dope on new men is available as yet.

The schedule, 80 far, contains only five games, but the coach felt confident that at least three more would be added. The schedule follows: September 28-Highmore at Huron. October 12 Aberdeen at Aberdeen. October 19-Mitchell at Mitchell. October 26-Clarke at Clarke.

STREET CAR HITS BOY; JUST BUMPS HIS HEAD Peter Halde, four years old, who was knocked down by a street car, while playing near his home Friday, will be up from bed In a day or two, his mother, Mrs. Fred W. Halde, 1901 South Norton avenue, said today. His chief injury was a severe bump on his head, which seems today to give no serious indications.

Fear that the boy's skull might have been fractured was dispelled after an X-ray examination at the Sioux Falls clinic, where he was taken immediately after. the Ident. Going to the state labor convention officially uninstructed, delegates from the Sioux Falls trades and labor 18- sembly, as well as others chosen by the union locals, leave this afternoon for Huron where the annual meeting of the South Dakota State Federation of Labor is to be held Sunday and Monday. Men chosen to represent the tradeslabor assembly are: Carl Anderson, E. E.

Sudan and U. Brown. There are also delegates from several of the individual unions, and W. J. Flanagan, publisher of The Labor News, will also attend.

The course of organized labor in coming state political campaign will undoubtedly be an important subject at the Huron convention, but unemployment and other matters will get due consideration. Some Sioux Falls delegates have announced their intention to oppose President Warren E. Beck's plan to have labor wield its influence in state politics through one of the two old parties instead of through 8 third party. Delegates, from the trades and labor however, go officially uninstructed by the assembly this matter, according to D. E.

Prosperity will Come Agriculture moves rather like the waves of the sea and it is now in the trough of wave. It may be five, ten, or more years before we reach the crest of the wave but it will come and with it prosperity for the trained agriculturist who has had the foresight and the perseverance to stay with the industry.

of course not all of you will be 80 fortunate as to have a farm to whichj you can return, or capital enough to make a start otherwise. Agriculture in its broadest sense 1g much more than more farming. Scarcely an Industry can be mentioned that does not in some way link itself with the great basic industry and more and more each year these Industries are calling for mett with the agriculture mind and viewpoint. They are a necessary connection for industrial success. Manufacturing plants, mills, banking and credit organizations, shipping concerns, selling and advertising agencies, newspapers, and, yes, even the public sending men to our nation's capital, all are looking for men who can represent the interests of agriculture.
