SUBSTITUTE FOR ALFALFA.
Agricultural Department Seeking New
Forage Plant.


For the third time Prof. Neils F
Hansen of the South Dakota College
of Agriculture located here, has been
sent abroad by Secretary of Agricul-
ture James Wilson to investigate the
plant life of Russia and Siberia, and
If possible find Legume similar to
alfalfa, which will thrive in the ex-
treme northern part of the United
States, particularly in North Dakota,
Montana and northern South Dakota,
says a Brookings. S. D., item.
The return Of Prof Hansen will be
awaited with considerable interest by
all those who are anxious to see 100
head of cattle fed on lands in the
northwest, which are now feding 10
head, and believe there are plants
which will flourish on the semi-arid
lands of the north as alfalfa has
flourished further south than the
Dakotas.
Prof Hansen is expected to return
to the United States in November. He
will report to his chief the secretary
of agriculture. but the results of his
visits to the sections OF northern Eu4
rope and Asia will first be made pub
lie at the national corn exposition
which will be held in Omaha Decem-
Der 9 to 49, A special day is to be
set aside for the agricultural colleges
and Prof. Hansen will be the speaker
for the South Dakota college.

MooRHoUsE INDIAN SUITS.
Walla Walla Paper Praises Valuable
PendIeton Relics.

The Walla Walla Union says Of Maj
Lee Moorhouse's fine Indian costumes
seen in the Fourth Of July parade in
that city:
Lee Moorhouse of Pendleton, who
has one of the largest collections OF
Indian relics in the world, arrived in
the city yesterday afternoon with
several trunks we'll filled with costly
costumes for the 25 braves who will
take part in the parade and the pro-
gram at the fair grounds.
Mr.. Moorehouse's collection of rel
les embraces some OF the most beau
tiful Indian costumes ever seen, many
Of them having never been seen on
red man by residents of this section
Of the country.
1t Is estimated that the suits to be
worn in the parade today will aggre-
gate an expenditure of more than $5,-
900. There is to be no travesty in
connection with either the Indians or
cowboys, all departments to be car
ried out with view to giving resi-

where the Indians are to give a short

fair grounds, to take up the main pro-
gram of the day.
The parade of Indians, cowboys and
the stage coach will pass the grand
stand this afternoon, and those who
secure seats early are to be given an
opportunity to closely observe the
