FOR TRIAL.

The Register is in receipt of the fol-
lowing letter from Prof. Hansen:
The legislature made provision,
March 3rd, for limited trial in every
county in South Dakota of the new
a~lfalfas which | brought owe from
Russia and Siberia as agricultural ex-
plorer for the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture in my last two
trips TO Siberia in 1906 and 1908. This
seed was widely scattered in small lots
in many states. Some of the best of
these new a~lfalfas have been started
from a spoonful of seed, so progress
has been slow. We have no seed to
spare this year. A few thousand one
year-old plants can be spared this
spring. A few plants were sent out
last year and some farmers averaged
one-half ounce of seed to the plant
from plants set in good garden soil far
enough apart to permit of good cult
walton.
my present belief is: % That
we can make a success of alfalfa
culture in every part of the state. CD
That these new varieties will be
proof against winter killing; CD That
some of these a~lfalfas can be intro
duced as wild plants on stony, rolling
lands too rough for cultivation.
please remember, land that can
raise good alfalfa is worth one hun
dred dollars, and more, per acre.
In a recent article in the Sioux
Falls Press | offered to send ten
plants free to the first ten applicants
in each county. Applicants should de-
scribe the character of the soil and
state whether theye wish the plants
for hay or pasture. Many application
have already been received. Appli-
cations received too late will be
placed on the waiting list for next
year. Address, Prof. y. +. Hansen,

COOK is AFTER CROOKS.

Commissioner Cook Of the state food
nd drug department., is hot after the
inseed oil companies which have been
pouring their adulterated product into
this state. In a circular to dealers.
Mr.. Cook says:
Notice is hereby given that the
commissioner will recommend prose
cution of all parties found selling adul-
terated linseed Oil as linseed oil in
South Dakota. Samples Of oil have
been found in the state which dealers
have purchased from the American
.Linseed Oil Co., both of Omaha,
.Neb., which proved to be highly
a~dulterated with milelal oil. There
are probably other companies that are
guilty, but. up to the present, We have
not detected the fact, if ii exists. IN
this connection, | desire 10 say that
the American Linseed Oil Co. is not
the same as the American Linseed
Co, which latter, | believe, is doing
a legitimate business.
If we had a national law governing
interstate commerce in linseed on, II
would be possible to prosecute com
panies found shipping such adulter-
ated oil into the state; but since we
do not have such a national law, this
department sees nc way Of enforcing
the law except Il prosecute such
dealers as may have the same in their
stores and are offering it for sale to
the public. The fact that this oil is
sold at a price which is a few cents
lower than the current price for lin
seed oil should arouse the suspicion
Of the dealer at once that such oil is
adulterated and illegal.
We have already recommended the
prosecution Of two parties for selling
adultera.ed linseed oil, and the cases
are now in the hands of the States
attorneys. 1t is expected that by the
close OF the year practically every
lcounty in the state will be inspected,
hence no section of the state will be

ART CRITICS TAKE A HAND

And now comes the Art Critics
with the statement that the Hudson
Motor Cars beauty Of line is play
ing a part in the cultivation of our
artistic sense. A distinguished au-
thority on artistic designs and other
branches of art, stated in a recent
lecture at the Art Museum in De
troit, that the Hudson Motor Car
Company vas helping to raise the
standard of art by building ears of
such subtle lines and calling attention
in its advertising to the fact that
beauty was a thing to be desired in
automobiles as much as in anything
else. The explanation of the Art
Critics compliment to the Hudson
cars is found in the Hudson factory.
Before a body designed is decided
upon, scores of miniature bodies will
have been made from German wax.
This miniature automobile body looks
exactly like the finished product, the
only difference being in size. Hun
dreds of pounds of wax is used in the
experimental room of the Hudson
plant. That is the custom followed
quite closely among foreign design
ers, but very few American autOmo-
bile companies make use of the wax
models.
