Farmers Want Alfalfa Plants.

Brookings.-Prof. N. E. Hansen of
the State College here states that his
promise of alfalfa plants to the farm
ers of the state has met with very
satisfactory and unusual response.
Last spring he announced that he
would send ten alfalfa plants to the
first ten farmers in each county who
asked for them, and to date about 800
have applied. These plants have Been
sent out over the state on the condi-
tion that they be we'll taken care of
until established in the soil in order to
make thorough test of their ability
to Withstand dry and hard seasons.
The alfalfa plants sent out by Prof
Hansen include many special varieties
resulting from long and careful plant
breeding. The interest in the work
is, in fact, nation wide, for the pro-
fessor constantly receives requests
from distant parts of the country for
these drought resisters. In this and
other respects the work of the State
College benefits the nation as we'll as
the state. In fact, part of the work of
the college comes under the direction
of the federal government in connec-
ton with the United States experi-
ment stations, one of which is located
at Brookings at the State College.

Six big disasters will occur in
the United States in 1911. This is
not the prediction of an astrologer,
but the American Red Cross society.
Experience has taught the Red
Cross to expect an average of five
or six big disasters in this country
each year. 1t does not undertake
to say when or where they will oc-
cur, Or whether they will be caus-
ed by storm. fire, food, or earthquake
or explosion, but it is sure they will
come. Experience proves not only
an average of five of six disasters,
severe enough to call aid from the
Red Cross, may be expected every
year in the United States, but the
demands from foreign countries are
predicted to be much more numer-
