DRUG TENDS GET
 NEW KIND OF DOPE"
(From Thursdays Daily.) ]

WASHINGTON, D. C., Dec. B.
 According to information gathered
 by the United States Department
 of Agriculture, there has been sud
 den and very significant increase in
 the use by persons with a drug
 habit of the little-known but very
 dangerous drug called 'heroin." The
 sales of this drug have recently in creased greatly, particularly in those
 States which have rigid laws prevent ing the indiscriminate sale of nor
 phine and cocaine Investigation of the subject establishes the fact that many drug victims who former ly used morphine and cocaine and who under the new laws find it difficult to obtain these substances have begun using heroin, the sale Of which is not as yet as carefully restricted under State laws. The drug is said to be fully as danger ous as morphine and by many is held to be much worse, for the req son that it occasionally kills the victim outright and its habit is far harder to overcome than the use or the other drugs The department, pending further action, specially warns all people who are unfamiliar with the drug, to avoid all prep. arations containing the substance and to take it only on the prescrip ton of reputable physicians II
 Heroin, the consumption of which by drug takers has recently increased % markedly, is a derivative of mor- pline, the opium alkaloid. It Is known in chemical parlance as dia- cetyl morphine, and 1t Is frequently found as q constituent of q number of proprietary drugs. Its use seems to be especially notable in parts of Pennsylvania. This year the cor oner's office in Philadelphia county has held inquests on five sudden | deaths from heroin poisoning. In each case the victim was d heron Eend and was on a herOin debauch | and took an overdose The sub | stance apparently is far more dan gerous for drug users than nor phine or cocaine. Drug fends a2- | parently are able to consume rela- tIvely large quantities of the other | two drug,, but any sudden and ma terial increase in the amount oi | heroin taken is very liable to prove | fatal. As indicating the wide safe oi this substance, it is known Jh1: one druggist in Pennsylvania whose store was located in an undesirable section of his city has been buying l fcroin tablets in 25,000 lots.
 The labels of proprietary and | other medicines purchased by iay- | men should bc carefully scrutinizcd | for a statement which is required | by the national food and drugs | act of the quantity or proportion of hcroin or any derivative or prepara- ton thereof.
 The word "hcroin" on any label should be regarded as a danger sig 1 nal, according to the experts of the department.

INTEREST SHOWN APP
 PRECIATED BY MINERS
(From Fridays DailY.l

An interesting report from the mining committee, a statement show ing the healthy condition of the i treasury, announcements regarding the annual banquet next Monday night and a report disclosing the addition of new members, featured a brief but interesting session of the Chamber of Commerce last night. Probably because of the close proximity of the annual cleo ton day, which comes next Tues day, one of the largest turn-outs of members this year was in attend ance
 Mining Committee. Reporting for the mining com mittee, LeRoy Anderson, chairman, told of the progress made in the campaign to boost Yavapai county's mining industry. Secretary Malcolm A. Fraser said that a feeling of cordiality existed throughout the mining district toward the chambers efforts in behalf of the mining inter ests.
 He reported that thirty-nine re- plies had been received to circulars sent out by the chamber asking for descriptions of claims on the market In only one instance did miner see fit to knock instead of boost" The reading of his epistle created a good, long laugh.
 The sentiment throughout the county appears to prophecy a good year in mining in 1914 Many of the miners are inclined to believe that the chambers worthy effort will benefit them as well as the commrnity at large, A feeling of confidence and willingness to CO., operate appears to prevail Such a situation, it Is declared, can do ausht but bring success to the ef- forts being made
 Blanks to be filled out will also be placed among many of the bus- . ness house throughout the city. They can be secured upon request. Circulars have been sent to every mine owner and prospector in the county.
 Banquet Plans.
 Tickets for the annual banquet to be held in the Hotel St Michael Monday night will be placed on sale at 10 o'clock this morning. Ac- commodatiOns have been reserved for 150 diners. The demand, it is be- lieved, will be so great that the tickets will be sold on a basis of first come, first served" Every member in good standing may bring a friend or two ii he SO desires. The tickets will sell at SIPS each.
 Membership Campaign.
 In all twenty-two new members have been added to the Chamber of Commerce as a result of the recent campaign. Over a dozen have dropped from the ranks but the report is considered, nevertheless, very gratifying. The treasurer's re- port shows balance Of over $500, this figure being reached as q re- suit of the collection of delinquent dues in connection with the member ship campaign.

tention to the article Of Prof. Champ.
lin which appeared in last weeks
issue, entitled alfalfa Facts"
We have been watching these plats
closely for the past two years and we
are pleased, much pleased to learn
the good results obtained. But say
how infinitely better it would sound
and what a grand thing it would be
for the neighborhood could some
~Brookings county farmer proclaim in
the columns OF the Register that his
80 acre field produced 1888 tons of
alfalfa hay. This reminds us of Mr..
Lincoln's hay story, it seems that one
Of his neighbors came to him with an
account Of his wonderful bad crop,
TOO many tons" Lincoln looked up
and with that peculiar smile of his
said, 81 have been making hay too
A big crop-how many tons, was the
question, II do not know just how
many tons but after we had stacked
all we could out-of-doors we stored
the rest in the barn"
We have before us at this writing
reports of large alfalfa fields In Brown,
Yankton, Jerauld, Sphinx, Miner and
other counties. And yet we, in the
shadow of the agricultural college hear
little or nothing about this most de-
sirable plant.
We do not, We never have said that
we cannot grow alfalfa in Bookings

be distinctly understood. We do
claim however, that SO far and up to

doing.
Perhaps We have not been properly
taught-not many farmers receive or
read the bulletins relative to this
forage.

Brookings county farmers institute
since it's organization. We have yet

for the first time. And we do believe
that there is more work for him to do

kota and less in Siberia. G. N. X.

IMPROVEMENT OF CAMPBELL

Last week the Register mentioned
the idea of improvement of the beauti,
full Lake Campbell. This idea Is more
than a quarter Of a century old, it
has maturity of growth, full beard and
physical development. The leading
border owners have always looked
with favor upon this improvement,
provided it is done in a proper and
legal way. They would not only give
their borders OF frontage gratis but
would otherwise assist with the pro-
viso that a legal systematic survey
Is first made and amaciable settlement
secured with the rest Of the owners
who would be o~verlowed. Perhaps
condemnations would have to be re-
sorted to in one or two instances. The
writer has just interviewed several Of
the parties and Is justified in stating
that this is the condition. Not only
favorable action; but If any less legal
course is attempted there would be a
union of forces to oppose any action
at all. No one will say but that this
improvement would add much beauty
but also vast utility as well. Now if
any aggregation Of persons desire to
move, the field Is cut out for them in
a definite and legal proposal. Why
not those public spirited fellows get
busy and start the ball rolling and
smoke out the conservatives and get
upon the map. Often times one hears
the remark of what good is such and
such a one" in the community? Why
bless your soul, each has a work to do;
yet We may not see it clearly through
III hogish eyes. Scribe"

MORE o ALFALFA

Brookings Register:
I was interested In reading Prof.

reference paid to G. N. Kennard, and
myself by the editor, as being inter.
e0ted In alfalfa. Yes, l am a great
believer In alfalfa, and so that l may
not be misunderstood want to say
right here, i believe we can grow 1t
in Brookings county; and the profes.
o tells US that they have grown from
3 to 5 tons per acre on the college
farm, and ! know of farmers who have
been trying 1t out the past IL or 10
years. But where are u broad fields
of alfalfa in Brookings county?
have failed to see them yet. II any
farmer in Brookings county can show
me s acres of alfalfa on his farm,
will visit his farm and get a picture of
It. Yet 1t Is not an uncommon thing
to see 40, go or 80 acres Of common
red clover growing here, and as good
as we yer say growing anywhere.
Why are not the good farmers here
growing large fields OF alfalfa, IL 1t
will produce from 3 to 5 tons per acre?
It certainly has the feeding qualities,
which make 1t a valuable crop to
grow. ! ann told that n seeding Of
alfalfa will bring Ave or more crops,
some claim z or s; and puts more fer
tility into the coil than a half dozen
crops Of clover. Yet It is a fact we are
not producing alfalfa here as we
should. ! am told by men who have
grown alfalfa for the past Is years or
more that s or Z pounds per acre is a
great plenty to SOW of good clean
seed, this seed cost from Is to S5
cents Per pound, 30 1t is not the ex-
penee that keeps us from growing 1t.
