SWEET CLOVER


Pierre, Aug. 16.-J. A. Davy, ot
this city is an enthusiast on the subject
of sweet clover as a forage plant for
this part of South Dakota. He STATED
tests with the white flower swee,
clover on his Sully county farm several
years ago, sowing the seed on a gravel
ly side hill where the millet and other
forage crops always burned out in hot
weather Of summer. The first year be
cut a ton Of the sweet clover 20 the
acre on this gravel point, and the next
year cut it twice getting a ton to the
acre at each cutting. The third year
he did not get to 1t until 1t had begun
to 60 to seed and the woody stalks were
not worth anything. but he cut 1t down
and the newly seeded plants came up
sufficiently to give him good pssturage
after all other green pasture was gone.
Since that time the tract has been cnt
before going to seed every year, has
been growing without ~re-seeding since
that time. He feels that when the
clover is allowed to 20 to seed the
old plant dies and the new seedlings
come up 10 the fall. but II 1t Is cut
twice each year before II goes to seed
and is ~pastured later to keep it down
the shoots come up from the old root
each year.
He says that he found no great
difficulty 10 getting stock to eat the
sweet clover hay. He piled II at the
end of q stack in the yard where he
allowed his milk cows to run and
the first hay they cleaned up was the
sweet clover. going from that to
bromus and taking millet as third
cnoice. Ae has found that stock
which will not eat the sweet clover
green will take 1t after 10 Is cured as
hay, bot further that his cattle when
they once began taking 1t were ready
to take 1t either green or cured, and
that 1t was an excellent fall pasture
for milk cows after two cuttings had
been taken of. On . recent trip to
the section Of the state near Belle
Fourche he said he found the farmers
in that section using both the white
and yellow lowered species rs pastur-
age for both hogs and cattle and the
hogs which had no other feed ap-
peared to be thriving and in good
nesh, though not fat on this pasturage
without corn OF other feed.
His experience leads him to believe
that the white lowered species is the
best and that it will grow in prac-
tically any season and on soil which
will not grow other crops, and thai
while it mat take a little time to
get cattle to eat the hay or pasture.
when they once start they prefer III
to other feed. He found nc difficulty

GUT PRICES
Agricultural Department Flood
ed With Co Operative
Ideas

Washington, Aug. Incorporation
in marketing, with a view to lessen
ing the "high cost of living" seems
to have taken such a hold upon the
people of the United States that the
department of agriculture is being
inundated with requests from such
cooperative organizations for an in
vestigation of the Individual merits.
So great has the pressure become
that the department announced it vas
not contemplating the recommendation
of any special system and would not
proceed now with its work on that
line.
The department, it was disclosed.
has not vet fully organized its new
bureau of markets, which is designed
to organize and systemic the economi
cal distribution of food between the
producer and the consumer. In it's
announcement, 1t is set forth that no
less than sixty four applicants for the
position of specialist in CO operative
organization disclosed their quali6ca.
tions and that the civil service com
mission would require some time to
make a recommendation.
"After the specialist in cooperative
organization has been selected" says
the department statement. ''it is pos
sbile that this Office, as opportunity
arises, may make personal observa-
tions as TO the conduct aud methods
OF some of the numerous organizations
in the United States to assist the de-
partment in giving the most valuable
information and advice to groups of
persons desiring to effect ~organiza-
TONS"
Cntil that time, however, the de-
partment will decline to tackle the
question of cooperative buying and
selling.

that would be something entirely I'M
precedented, to have u chairman OF
the congressional committee who was
not q member of congress.
A canvass of the situation a few days
ago by newspaper correspondents re-
vealed that Representative Burke was
the choice of Minority Leader Mann
and nearly all the republican mem
bars Of long service, and there is not
the slightest doubt he would be chos-
en- il he would accept, but he has de.
clined in the most positive terms.
This ~decliuation Of Mr.. Burke to ac-
cept a high party honor, generally so
much coveted, has lent strength 10
the report that he seriously is con-
sidering becoming a candidate fol the
senate against Senator Crawford.
Representative Augustus p. Gardner,
of Massachusetts, son-in-lsw Of Sena-
tor Lodge, has been a candidate for
the chsirmanship. but last week with
drew. at the sane time announcing
that he proposed to vote for Repre-.
sentative Frank p. Woods, of Iowa.
This STATED IA boomlet for the Esther
willie congressman, but he said he had
10 no sense been a candidate for the
Craftsmanship. However, 1t is well
known that Mr.. Woods has enter
tanned a desire to be chosen secretary
Of the committee. He was favored for
this position by Chairman Mckinley,
and il the Illinois man had been re-
turned to congress, Mr.. Woods nm
doubtedly would have been named
secretary. There does not seem much
prospect of MIR. Gardeners nominee be
ing the choice of the committee for its
chairman.
