The Real History.

A story was printed In the Northwest
Magazine TO the effect that Henry
Schatz, of Scotland, S. D., was the i'm.
porter Of the Russian thistle into this
country in 1876. The statement is made
that one thistle grew that year in his
fax and his neighbors wanted him to de.
stroy it, but he said: "No, let it grow
and see what it will amount to-" and
that from that single plant has come the
pest Of the northwestern farmer. The
Yankton Press corrects the statement by
saying:
It is hardly fair to give Henry Schatz
entire credit for the production of this
marvellous plant. What the Northwest
Magazine knows about the origin of the
Russian thistle in this country isn't a
patchin' to the knowledge of the old set
tiers of Yankton. The Russian hustle
began it's American existence on the
Yankton river front in 1874. from seed
