HANSEN CHALLENGES
SEED CLAIMS GIVEN
OUT FROM ABERDEEN
Scores Brown County Agent
for Alleged INSTRUMENTATION
IN Alfalfa Offering.

Bookings. s. D. Dec. 1S.-Declaring
that Misrepresentation concerning the
variety and quality of South Dakota
alfalfa seed are unfair to both the
general public and to honest seed men.
Prof. N. e. Hansen comes out with a
statement today in which he severely
scores H. +. Patterson. county agent
FOR better farming In Brown county:
The enterprising business men or
Aberdeen backed the So-called South
Dakota Better Farming association IN
the purchase of $1,000 worth or al
falfa seed. A letter has been sent by
the county agent, Mr.. Patterson, to
the register Of deeds in each county
of h state announcing w o carloads
OF South Dakota grown seed for sale
by the Better Farming association at
Aberdeen. Concerning this offer Pro-
fessor Hansen says:
"Supt. 81. F. Patterson makes he
claim that both of these carloads were
raised in western South Dakota and
that carload No. 1 a been raised on
dry land between the Cheyenne and
Bad rivers for the past 20 years; or
fginal seed came from Russia. Car
load No. 2 has been grown on dry land
between Elk creek and the Belle
Fourche river for the past 20 years;
has spreading root system; original
seed from Turkestan.
Il challenge both of these claims.
No seed mar in America has ever
claimed to have Russian alfalfa seed
from a field 20 years old or from
Turkestan alfalfa fields 20 years old
No seed nan in the United States has
made these claims, because he would
not claim what is not in existence. The
records show that the first Turkestan
alfalfa seed was brought owe to Amer
lea in the spring Of 1898 by myself and
that the shipment was about nine tons
From European Russia I first brought
over alfalfa seed in 1906, which was
seven years ago."
Professor Hansen says he would moi
cast any reflections on the common al
falfa seed which was raised in large
quantities during the past season IL
western South Dakota. There will be
a good market for all Of it, he says
for 1t is good seed when properly
cleaned. But" he adds, IF Mr.. Pat.
tersen chooses to send out common
alfalfa seed In active competition with
the South Dakota seed men, at the ex.
pense Of the business men Of Aber,
deem he should compete fairly and MOI
make claims which no scotsman has
ever yet made. This seed has beef
bought in h same region where the
South Dakota seedsmen have been
buying, but the seedsmen have been
and are dealing fairly with the pub
lie by selling it on it's merits"

MANY PELLAGRA CASES
IN HOSPITAL AT YANKTON

Mitchell. s. D.. Dec. 13.-Pellagra is
prevalent in many communities in
South Dakota where its existence is
suspected, declared DR.. G. s.
Adams, staff physician at the state in
sane hospital, at Yankton, speaking
before the Mitchell district Of the State
Medical society.
Reports Of patients treated at the
Yankton hospital. said DR.. Adams,
showed conclusively that they had
been brought there suffering with the
diease and that it must be prevalent
in different parts of the state. At the
present time there are IL patients at
Yankton who have the disease. Sew
eral have died from it's ravages. Until
q few years ago, comparatively little
was known about the disease, which is
especially common In the southern
states. Medical authorities differ on
its cause. although the generally ac-
cepted theory is that it comes from
eating food prepared from moldy corn.
