THE DAIRY A HUMMER.


It lie evident that the dairy interests
jn this state are rapidly growing. To
confirm this 1p!aion one only needs TO
visit the dairy department of the state
Agricultural college Of this city, where
fifty students are being educated to
take charge Of crsameries and cheese
factories.

young people from different parts OF
the state who fully appreciate that In

believe stock raising will be as profit
able here as In the older states. We
have range supplies at our back door
and can raise unlimited quantities Of
grain and grass. It is an ideal sheep
section, hog diseases are unknown and
the climate is admirably suited to the
raising Of healthy, strong boned horses.
HANsEN's HORTICULTURAL WORK.
Prof. N. e. Hansen, horticulturist
of the college is engaged in the gigantic
task OF creating ornamental and fruit
trees adapted to South Dakota soil
and climatic conditions. Many fruits
are indigenous especially the sand
cherry and strawberry. These, by ex-
cessiye feeding, he has succeeded In
greatly improving and at present over
100,00 fruit plants are in the horti-
cultural grounds. Prof. Hansen be-
lieyes that il South Dakota is to be q
state of homes, trees and fruits are
absolutely necessary. During extern
sive travels In Russia he selected many
varieties of hardy trees including fruits,
grapes, apples and plums and orna-
mental varieties. These he is de-
termined to adopt to Dakota condi-
tions and has already met gratifying
success.
Prof. Jas. H. Shepard station chem
ist and Prof. d. A. Saunders the bota-
mist and entomologist have made spec
ial study of the nature grasses both
from botanical and chemical stand
point. The rich buffalo and grama
grasses formerly covering these
prairies have practically disappeared
defying all attempts at artificial prop
agation. Experiments have determ-
ined that bronze grass introduced into
the United States twelve years ago by
the agricultural department at Wash
ington is an excellent II not superior
snhstitate. 1t IL is nutritious. with
stands drouth and Yields heavily.
One of the best features of the col :
lege is the library in charge Of Robert
f. Kerr, A. M, who is at present work
ing on the first history Of Dakota.
Although comparatively new section,
the Dakotas possess history running
back for more than century, when
the first hardy trapper invaded the
hunting grounds of the red man. Prof.
Kerr has devoted many years to the
collection of data and will shortly give
to the state the benefit Of It.
In closing, the Live Stock World
says their representative In the course
of his peregrinations has found no
where an institution doing more
valuable work for Its state, moro
enterprising faculty, or more am
bilious corps of students. South
Dakota may be young but In the
march Of educational progress 1t is in
the first rank.

Railway at its crossing Of the Big Sioux
river. Preconception are agreeably
dlspelled by the pretentious buildings
surrounding the campus which occu-
pies the southern slope of one of these
majestic prairie swells that form an
essential ingredient Of Dakota land
scapes. These STRUCTURES constitute
a forcible object lesson for parsim-
onious state legislatures, persistently
retarding agricultural work by
niggardly appropriations.
About the entire Institution hovers
an up-to-date atmosphere imbuing
instructors, students and employees.
The grounds have an area of 400 acres,
and while the farm employment is
modern, SO great is the scope OF the
work that pressing necessity exists for
additional buildings, especially stock
barns. Appearance Of tuberculosis
recently caused dispersion of both beef
and dairy herds, and experimental
work carried on this winter is solely
with sheep and hogs, ANIMALS well
adapted to soil and climate. Hog
cholara Is unknown In this bracing
atmosphere, and that industrious
distributor of germs, the running
stream, is nowhere seen. Plans for
reestablishing the cattle herds are
now being formed. Close proximity of
the ranges will, however, prevent
feeders hereabouts from becoming
breeders for many years to come.
STUDYING SOIL coNDITIoNs,
e. G. Chilcott, agriculturist OF the
Institution, is an authority on Dakota
soils and in determining what agri-
culture was best suited to these soils
long and careful study was necessary.
Prof. Chilcott said: The policy Of
the college has always been to dis
courage expensive agriculture and in
spire the small farmer and home bull
der with the idea that South Dakota
Is the place for him. We want the
home and it's surroundings here, not
the shack of the wheat raiser. This is
destined to be one OF the best stock

different methods and different varie-
ties Of feed and the breeding OF differ
ent strains of animals. This done /

The Agricultural College and Expert
ment Station at Brookings a
Strong One.

The Chicago Live Stock Journal
recently sent special correspondent
to this city for the purpose of looking
over the State Agricultural college
and experiment station and In recent
issue Of that paper appeared an ex-
tended article setting forth the work
being dOne.by this popular institution.
The REGISTER takes the liberty of
making some brief extracts from the
article.
To cover these great fertile
plains with homes is the object of DR..
John w. Heston, President of the
South Dakota Agricultural College
and the force of scientists in charge
OF the experiment station here.
Conditions in the Dakotas are entire
ly disssimilar to those existing In older
sections. The student acquiring an
education at an eastern college would
tulally labor under great disadvan-
tage on this account, hence the nec-
essity Of training him on the soil he
intends to till, and acquainting him
with its peculiarities. The work now
being carried on at Brookings will not
only nave an important influence on
the future of the whole sub-arid region,
but will be responsible for the creation
of a farmer fully qualified to persue
agriculture profitably where two
decades ago anything but cereal cul-
t6re was regarded as chimcrical.
From vast expanse Of wheat fields,
South Dakota is being transformed
into land of homes and email farms;
intensive 10 succeeding extensive agri-
culture, eastern methods are being
abandoned for those adapted to the
climate and soil of the country,
and live stock and dairying for grain
raising. In this revolution the agri-
cultural college and experiment
station has been factor and the re-
searches of it's faculty are stamped In
delIbly on the history Of the common
wealth.
