The Grain Market.

limited Press Leased Wire Service. j
CHICAGO, March 21.-The wheat
market opened with a strong swell, on
cable reports of higher prices In Liv-
erpool resulting from smaller ship
ments from South American ports.
The advance did not last, however
when reports from northwestern mar
kets told of heavier receipts of grain
at milling points. After dip below
Yesterdays level, the market strength
ened somewhat.
With a forecast for fair and warmer
weather there was little demand for
corn today while holders were offering
their commitments. Prices sagged
heavily.
The oats market started higher but
weakened early in the trading in SYM
,pathy with other grains.

GRANGER AFTER
HIGHER HONORS

Philip, 8. D., Special to the Sioux
City Journal. Upon the suggestion
OF number of the representatives
from the western part OF the state,
Representative elect A. G. Granger,
from Stanley county. has announced
his candidacy for the speakership Of
the next house.
Mr.. Granger is one Of Stanley coun-
ty's rising young lawyers, Q man who
is thoroughly posted as to the needs
of the state, and he hopes to have
the united support of all republican
representatives in the territory west
Of the river. His campaign for the
speakership has been placed In tho
hands of the other two representa-
tiyes from Stanley county, Hon. r.
A. Bielski snd Chester N. Leedom.

proximately 80, 600, 900 bushels grown
in these states and 80, 600, 900 in Wis
consin alone. See Bureau OF Plant
Industry Bulletin No. 1S2. While
this has been phenominal increase
there is still a chance to greatly in
crease it's usefulness South Dakota
has not Kept up with the procession
in this respect, partly because of the
severe season of 1911 and partly be-
cause there was no organized effort
toward that end prior to the present
season. when the South Dakota Ex-
pertinent Association was organized
at the State College. Much of the
seed rent out by the Experiment Sta
tion was not increased by those who
received it.
WHAT 1T LOOKS LIKE. The Swed-
ish Select is large, plump, white oat
with rather long black, slightly
twisted avn. The heads are large
and spreading and the most striking
characteristic of field of this vari-
ETY. is its uniformity. Every head is
just like every other head. 1t ripens
evenly and there are therefore few
immature grains. 1t usually weighs
more than standard weight per BUSH
ell. 1t would be classed as medium
late variety, requiring about the same
length to mature as Fife wheat.
In closing then, we may conclude
that Swedish Select is very good
variety to grow. There are some
reasons unfavorable to late varieties
when it is not as good as an early
variety. But in an average of yeaIs
it has been the leading variety at
Highmore and except for the early
Sixty Day. the leading variety at
Brookings. Further information on
oats can be obtained free by writing
to the Agronomy Department at
Brookings or the Bureau OF Plant
Indusry at Washington.

BUSY YEAR FOR
FOOD DEPARTMENT

Pierre. y. ID. NoY. 19.--Dr. Alfred N,
Cook, food and dairy commissioner.
has sent In his report to the governor
for the year ending July 1, 1912. He
reports that more than three times as
much work has been done this year
as has ever been done before and
urges the state to provide some addi-
tional room, for the food and drug
department and the chemical depart
ment occupy the same original space
as was assigned them ut the uniyer-
sity when they were organized and
they have very greatly outerown the
room given them. They are in espec-
ial need OF a room for their dceu-
ments where they may be kept and
filed for future use; OF Q dark room
in the chemical laboratory and Q room
for testing chemicals and feeding
stuffs of offensive odors. South Da-,
kota's appropriation FOR this depart
ment was $500 or 1875 cents per
capita, and the rates Of North Dako-
"a, Minnesota, Iowa and other ST txtes
are much higher. which enables them
20 carry on more work i'm thia very
important line. DIR. Cook particular
ly recommends that funds be supplied
SO that the law enacted regarding
the stock food may be enforced, as It
Is not at present. He urges the leg
islature to extend the weight and
measure law 80 that 1t will affect all
food commodities and not Just those
done in PACKAGES as it row stands.
That method is the only fair one for
the public and will finally become
universal and uniform law no doubt.
He also LAYS stress on the impure
beverages, soft drinks, sold, and the
preservatives that are used in every
line of food, which are 40 injurious.
Prosecutions were made by the de-
partment In % cases during the year
In South Dakota; three for sale Of
rotton eggs; two for unit meat; thir-
teen for injurious preservation used
in sausage; two for soft drinks. and
eight for drugs sold that did not come
up to the United States Standard OF
strength. or 9o1 samples Of various
things, meat, ice. foods etc. submitt-
ed to the department from various
places where they were sold 63i only

in his work. which has grown to be
greater than the present force can now
care for and urges additional sppro-
priation for the carrying on OF .
work that affects 80 vitality every eiti-
zen of this state.
