choice of legumes must be between the
clovers, alfalfa and the Canada pea.
We are surprised at the develop
ment of improved live stock in South
Dakota The agricultural college and
experiment station have sixteen diff
ferent breeds of live stock-cattle,
horses, hogs and sheep. South Dakota
is rapidly becoming sheep state. For
this it is eminently adapted. There
seems to be less severe losses fro
the stomach worm and the various
tape worms than in the corn belt Sec
tion farther east.
We are particularly interested in
the work of Professor Hansen, the
agricultural eXperimenter at the sta
ton who is now on his way to Siberia
for the purpose of securing varieties
of clover and alfalfa adapted to the
northern portion of the United States
from the Atlantic to the Pacific. We
suppose the greatest varieties of clover
and alfalfa that may be found on the
face of the earth is now growing at
Brookings, alfalfas of dwarf form,
alfalfas that have yellow blossoms, in
dicating that they come from the eX-

alfalfa will perish with the winter,
and clovers that were in blossom sew
eral days in advance of our ordinary
varieties. There was timothy that
was in head at the time of our visit,
the first week in June.
If anyone wishes to see new varie-
ties of fruit that are not to be found
elsewhere on the face of the earth, let
him visit the station at Brookings
Professor Hansen has been at work
developing from the sand cherry by
cultivation selection, and crossing
varieties of fruit heretofore unknown
and with the best prospects of success
All the northern states, at least those
east of the mountains, will be the
beneficiaries of Professor Hansen S
work. and the different provinces OF
Canada also. For first class scientific
work done at any one station in the
United States benefits all stations with
similar soils and climates. Many OF
these experiments are carried on in co
operation with the Department of Agri
culture. Our readers are well aware
that Secretary Wilson takes it to be
one of his great missions to search
the world over for plants adapted tc
every climate and condition in the
United States where agriculture OF
horticulture is possible

, the college track star, is a member OF
| the company and was expected to- GO
! to camp, but word was received from
him Saturday that it would be impos
sible for him to be there. The follow
ing rifle team was picked for the an
nual contest: Brown, Grover, Wickre
Hoffman, Slocum.
A large number of the company have
had military drill at the college and
for that reason they expect to make
an unusually good showing. Then
, they have worked hard for several
months in anticipation of this trip and
their friends here look for them to be
the best appearing and best drilled
, company in camp. The encampment
started Sunday morning and will con
tinue for eight days, and the boys will
be home sometime Tuesday. During
their stay in camp they will receive
pay from the state and national govern
ments, and this year they will return
the money received from the latter in
to help pay for the new club house
on the camp grounds.

PRIMARY EXPENSES.

In pursuance with the provisions of
the new primary law practically all of
the republican candidates have filed
their expense accounts with the secre-
tary OF state, but the minor parties are
not making a showing, the probabili-
ties being that none Of the candidates
reached 500 of expense in the cam
paign, which would relieve them OF
the provisions of the law. Several
county committees have attempted to
file their accounts with the secretary
but they have been returned for filing
with the clerk of courts in the county
which the campaign was conducted
The stalwart headquarters at Sioux
Falls reports the expenditure of $17,-
0S0.29, which balances their receipts
from all sources. The insurgent
headquarters at Huron admit the eX-
penditure of $ll.02607, which also bal
anceS the receipts from all sources for
use of that committee.
The largest individual statement fill
ed is that of Senator Kittredge who
puts his expense account at $l,36S.3S.
The next largest is that of l.. A. Nun.
son. who shows that he expended
$1.202 r. S. Vessey makes state
ment of $S0S.90 as the cost of wining
his campaign for the governorship. and
J. L. Browne admits that it cost him
$S73.75 to be defeated. +. W. Martin
spent $S44.9S; S. c. Policy $l74.40; j.
J. Waltner $l07 Thomas Thorson
5000 O. c. Dokken donated S205 to
the campaign committees and spent
less than 500 personally. John Him
ing did about the same with donations
of $210 to campaign committees, with
personal expenses of less than 500.
Governor Crawford expended $S0i. so
in his campaign for the senate, of
which $65 was donated. c. II. Cassill
expended $SS2.20 to be defeated for
treasurer; while his opponent Geo. G.
Johnson put $4S1.50 in the campaign
which carried him through. Philo Hall
as candidate for congress shows eX-
penses of $500: F. G.. Robinson, sue
cessful candidate for railroad COM
missioner, reports expenses of $307.57
while Hans Wickre, his defeated op
ponent admits $105.95. Nj. NJ. Ramer
shows that he expended $155.24 to be
defeated for state superintendent.
