biscuit made from common alfalfa
from the big alfalfa show at the West
ern Products exhibition at Omaha the
last OF January and myself and fam
lily tried to eat it and we are still
at the job. l very much prefer to eat
the mutton, beef and poultry made
from alfalfa to eating the alfalfa It
self. Man will probably never develop
a bovine stomach"
The past season we raised alfalfa
plants by sowing seed in rows with a
garden drill and %cultivating with a
wheel hoe, much the same as for car
rots and beets. The plants made a
strong growth and were dug up late In
the fall and are now heeled in out
doors with n over the earth.
They will be desirable for transplant
ing three to four feet apart each way
in good garden soil and should be
given thorough cultivation. This will
encourage the free production of seed.
Transplanting alfalfa plants is moth
ing new as it has long been practiced
in parts of India and South America.
In dry regions alfalfa seed is now
often raised in cultivated rows. Grow
ing alfalfa for seed and hay are two
different propositions.
1t must be remembered that a very
large number of different strains OF
alfalfas were found growing wild in
Siberia and ! tried to secure them
from regions that correspond to the
various parts of the prairie northwest.
Some of these alfalfas, l think, will
be better adapted to the extreme north
than to the south. The seed gathered
on my last trips to Siberia in 1906 and
1908 was scattered in a great many
places from our Mexican boundary
north into Alaska. | had nothing to
do with this distribution as 1t was
done from Washington. However, l
have worked patiently along with a
small quantity of each lot and am
ready to send out a few Of the best OF
these for trial elsewhere. No seeds
can be spared, but plants only. Some
of the best of these alfalfas have been
started from a teaspoonful of seed, so
that it has been slow work. The small
state appropriation will stimulate the
work as there are no federal funds
available for this purpose.

THE GAM e LAW

Pierre-In order to forestall any
m%isconception of the game law as it
now stands, in force and effect, State
the following:
For the benefit of the sportsmen
Of the state, who may be laboring I'M
der the impression that some material
changes were made by the last legiss
lature affecting the present game and
fish laws of the state the writer win
attempt to enlighten them as to the
real state of affairs.
"A new bill was presented to the
legislature having for its main feature
the elimination of the county game
warden system and substituting the
state deputy system. This bill passed
the lower house, but failed to pass the
senate, and thereby did not become a
law.
The only game bills that passed
were the two bills affecting big game.
One Of them was putting a closed
season on antelope indefinitely, and
the other the big game law which
takes the place Of the old one.
lulS new DlS SdLuc law pichibitS
the killing of more than n deer-and
that of the male deer only. Under
this law a deer is the only big game
animal that may be legally killed in
this state.
Practically the old game and fish
laws, with the exception Of the above,
are now in full force and effect and
will remain so until changed by a fu-
ture legislature.
Prairie chickens may be legally
killed next fall from sept. 10 to Oct.
1O-the limit being ten birds per day
and not over twenty-five in possession
of a person at any n time.
All bills relating to fish and fur
bearing animals failed to pass, as did
also the game and fish commission
bill.
New county game wardens will be
appointed on July list throughout the
state, to serve for one year.
The state game warden has already
sent communications to the various
boards OF county commissioners in re-
gard to the recommendations for APP
pointment of county game wardens,
insisting that well qualified men be
recommended"

DISFIGURED WITH ECZEMA

"Our little boy Gilbert was troubled
with eczema when but q few weeks
old. His little face was covered with
sores even to back Of his ears. The
poor little fellow suffered very much.
The sores began as pimples. his lit.
tie face was disfgured very much.
We hardly knew what he looked like.
The face looked like ray meat. We
tied little bags of cloth over his
hands to prevent him from scratching.
He was very restless at night, his
little lace itched.
I'VE consulted two doctors at Chi
cago, where we resided at that time.
two doctors without any result, we
read Of the Cuticura Remedies, and at
once bought the Cuticura Soap and
Ointment. Following the directions
carefully and promptly we saw the re-
suit, and after four weeks the dear
child's face was as fine and clean a.
any little baby's face. Every n who
saw Gilbert after using the Cuticura
Remedies was surprised. He has q
head Of hair which is q pride for any
boy Of his age, three years. We can
only recommend the Cuticura Rene
dies to everybody" (Signed) Mrs. H.

Monument to Fosters Memory

Sioux Falls-A movement has been
inaugurated to erect a handsome and
costly monument to the memory of
Capt. Jack" Foster, a former Texas
cowboy, who was a pioneer of Dakota
Territory, who gained fame as a
froniersman and frontier peace officer.
The originator of the movement is
Major Charles P. Jordan of Rosebud
Indian agency, a cousin of General
George A. Custer, and himself a from
tiersman of considerable enown Cap
tain Foster died about two years ago
from heart failure caused by overex-
ertion in fighting a prairie fire which
threatened to sweep a large territory
on the Rosebud reservation. At the
time and for a number of years prior
thereto Capt. Foster was the govern
ment stock detective on the Rosebud
reservation.

Mitcheli-south Dakota is without

a bloodhound. The hound which
State Fire Marshal Craft bought a
year ago., was poisoned by some per-
son throwing the animal some meat
containing poison in midday. The
hound cost the state 5000 and it has
been the means of tracking down sew
eral criminals in various parts Of the
state. The hound has been used in
tracking local parties of late who have
been mixed up in petty thieving and
1t is believed these parties decided to
get rid of the hound. 1t is not like
ly that the state will purchase another
hound.

Truly Noble Red Man Dead

Wakpala-Mad Bear. who except
for John Grass, is the last of the
old generation Of Sioux Indian chiefs,
is dead. He was the leader of the
band which rescued the white family
from the Santees in 1858, near here.
He gave his favorite saddle horse rs a
ransom for the white woman from
the hostiles, and with his little band
of friendlies escorted them to Fort
Pierre and turned them over to the
military. Mad Bear was greatly disap-
pointed that all efforts to induce con-
gress to grant him and his band 2
medal for their act was ~unavailtne.

TEAM RUNS AWAY,
TEN ARB INJURED.
Wagon Filled with Laborers
OYerturns on Bridge.

A two-horse team drawing q wagon
filled with laborers and workmen in
the employ of John H. Nolan, con-
tractor, bolted In Connecticut avenue
yesterday morning and ten men, all oc-
cupants Of the wagon, were injured, one
seriously, when the vehicle overturned.
/ Those more seriously hurt are George
Murray, f1fty-five years old, S4 Pennsyl-
vanie avenue, rib broken and possible
internal injuries; TiIlman Spriggs, col
ored, sixty years old, lbs Six-and-a-hah
place northwest, contusions Of hip and
legs; William Thomas, colored, hurt
about head, left shoulder. and ankle;
William Wheeler, the colored driver,
bruised and cut about body Nose jack
son. colored, back injured.
The driver first began having trouble
with the horses In Cathedral avenue.
They were restless and almost unman-
ageable. A piecetof broken harness nap
ping against the legs Of one Of the ami
mails is supposed to have caused the run
away. As the approach of the Connecti-
cut avenue bridge was neared the two
horses bolted, and, with the wagon ca
reening from one side to the other, they
ran out on the new cement structure
that spans Rock Greek.
The men held grimly to the sides Of the
wagon, but the runaways had only
cleared 100 feet or more on the bridge
when the wagon overturned, the men
were thrown in every direction on the
roadway, and the horses continued their
dash without a check.

Big CONCERNS AS
AGAINST SMALLER
West Virginia Lawyer Talks
on Sherman Law.

Declaring that the Sherman antitrust
act works to the advantage of big con-
Germs in competition with little concerns,
Taylor Vincent, q West Virginia lawyer,
yesterday urged the Senate Committee
on Interstate Commerce to report a bill
either repeating or modifying the exist
ing antitrust statutes. Mr.. Vincent
spoke with particular reference to the
coal industry. He submitted the draft of
a bill creating a commission to regulate
c"ei mining much as the railroads are
lated by the Interstate Commerce
mission.

forced to the wall.
Mr.. Vincent was closely cross-examined
by members of the committee. Their Ques-
tons appeared to indicate opposition TO
the idea of creating a government COM
mission to supervise the activities OF the
various industries. Mr.. Vincent was fol-
lowed by State Senator W. S. Dwinnell,
of Minnesota. He urged the imposition
of q g duated income tax on corporate
operation. the tax to increase with the
increase in capitalization. Such a burden
laid on the big corporations he thought
would give the small corporations a bet
ter chance in the fight for trade.
Henry D. Martin, secretary of the Ma
tional Trust League, declared that the
Sherman antitrust law was adequate
He said that through the failure Of va
rious Attorneys General to enforce the
statute It had not been thoroughly tested
Mr. Martin urged the creation of a de-
partment of transportation, to which
should be transferred the administrative
work Of the Interstate Commerce Com
mission.

BOY MUST EXPLAIN SHOOTING.
Arthur Carroll Held by Coroner's
Jury for Investigation.

Arthur Carroll, a seventeen-year-old
colored boy, will have to explain more
fully the fatal shooting Of Louis Trout
man, nineteen years old, in the railway
station at SixtyAhrst and streets north
east last Tuesday night. Despite the fact
that evidence tended to show the shoot
ing accidental, coroner's jury yesterday
held Carroll for the action Of the grand
jury.
According to the evidence presented to
the coroner, Troutman was waiting for
his mother. Mrs. Virginia Troutman. at
the station. Carroll came along, produced
an old revolver, and with the muzZle
pointed down, pulled the trigger several
times. It failed to explode and Carroll
handed II to Troutman at the latter's re-
quest. As he raised the gun II went on
and the bullet struck Troutman between
the eyes. Troutman died in the hospital
Wednesday morning.
