is able to Withstand very dry weather.
True to the characteristics Of al
hardy plants, alfalfa is exceedingly
tender when young. For this reason
considerable attention must be given
to the preparation OF the land. t.

PRAISES SOUTH DAKOTA

The editor of the Milford. Illinois,
Herald, recently visited our state
with the National Editorial Associa-
ton and makes the following com.
ment on his trip: !.
'The editor returned from his
South Dakota trip Thursday evening
somewhat fatigued over so strenuous
a trip, but very much taken up with
the country. South Dakota Ia surely
and truly wonderful state and those
who imagine it barren waste of
land have several guesses still COM
ing. 1t is wonderful for it's grazing
land, it's fertile fields of grain, its
bounteous fruit crops, its mining in
terests, it's beautiful cities and it's
we'll kept homes, but better than all
this, the people behind it all. They
are imbued with that spirit of pro
gressiveness that is bound to bring
their state to the front rank OF states
within the next five years. When we
went to Dakota we had printed little
card with our map printed on the
back thereof, showing Milford to be
the only place on the map, but be-.
fore we had been in the state twenty
four hours those South Dakotans had
us back in the corner and in doubt.
Every night before we retired we
quietly stole TO the smoking compart-
ment of our car and tried all the tests
known to the medical fraternity as to
our sanity. We were fearful that we
might be losing our mind. They fill
ed us up so much with the wonders
of the country, and had the goods to
back it up. that it will be many years
before we get it entirely out of our
system: In fact we are almost home
sick to go back right now. There is
plenty of room there for many thou
sands of people and the next FIVE
years will show wonderful develop
ment. Nothing can keepit down.
From the time we struck Sioux
Falls until we said goodbye at Yank
ton we were favorably impressed with
all we saw and much we heard. and
while we will have more to say Of the
trip within the next few weeks we
are fearful that the great trouble will
be in making our readers believe il
all. But this much can we say to
the man who wants to get a home, to
the man who is seeking Investment,
to the young man who says there is
no opportunity for the young man

SIGNAL UP FOR BAND WAGON

The number of men in public life in
Washington who are waiting for the
political band wagon; is made up of
such numbers that the vehicle is like
ly to be crushed by overlooking when
it finally comes along. There never
was u time in recent history when
there was more reticence regarding
the intentions of Congressman and
others regarding that nationatticket.
OF course the conviction may be
strong in the minds Of many states
men as to what they ought to do, but
when it comes to finding out what
they will do, most Of them indicate
that there is plenty of time.

fore the commencement OF the Octo Der

lawyer said that Miss Wildering told
the general that it was not his wife
who saved the precious contents of the
old vine covered house ct the northeast
corner Of Fifth avenue and Ninth
street, but an army friend of his.
1t was apparently a severe blow to
Mrs. Sickles that her prompt action in
saving the generals effects had not
effected a reconciliation. She had
seemingly hoped that he would be
softened when he knew what she had
done and agree to forget the differ

made to the governor by the Anti-vice

The chief said that the places men
toned in the complaint are dance halls
and supposedly respectable hotels
which are operated within the law.
The dance halls, he said, have been
under police surveillance at all times
and much more so since the complaint
was received.
Chief Corbitt said that the charge
that young girls frequented the places
mentioned and drank there Is untrue,
as no young girl is admitted. He as
serted that the women who ~frequented
the places were young only in appear
ance because Of the style of dress they
wore.
