Big Subscription Contest
Is Thing Of the Past
Frank Gibson Wins the Auto-Mate Buchholz Wins
Second Prze--Vernon Williams Wins Third
Splendid Showing Made

The Big Subscription contest
which the Herald has held for
the past few weeks, closed last
Saturday evening with the usual
amount of enthusiasm on the
part of the candidates. The bad
weather of the past week un-
doubtedly kept some of the con-
testants from working on a much
larger scale than they had plan
red. However, the contest was
very satisfactory to the Herald
from a subscription point of
view. and was conducted to the
entire satisfaction of the con-
teStants.
No favoritism was shown by
The Herald for any of the con-
testants and the Judges were
absolutely impartial in the mat

Cost Of Collecting
Taxes Is Excessive

Pierre, Dec. IA. The tax COM
mission finds th a t the net
amount of state taxes secured
from unorganized counties for
the fiscal years 1912 and 1914 is
S754. That in some o. the coun,
ties Of the state the officers are
paid more for making the assess
mant and collecting the taxes,
than the amount of tax secured
from that source. The appro-
priation of two years ago for
the purpose of assessment and
collection in unorganized coun-
ties, was 1900 for the biennial
periop, with an additional So, 500
to pay for previous work done in
that line.

At this season Of the year
many colt shows are being held
throughout the country. At
most Of these shows the great
emphasis is placed on colts of
draft type, as heavy horses have
been found under average con-
ditions to be the most profitable
for farmers to raise.
The real purpose Of colt shows
is to stimulate the breeding Of
good horses, and if they fail in
that respect they are of little
value. That these hOWs do
bring about the br e d in z Of
better horses has been demon
strated in communities " h r e
such shows have been held for a
number Of years and the services
Of competent Judges secure d.
In such communities three things
soon become noticeable:
First: That the colts shown
are more uniform in type each
year which indicates that t h e
people attending and exhibiting
colts at these shows have learned
what the essential features Of
draft animals are, and are sel-
ecting t h ei ir breeding animals
accordingly.
Second: That colts that are
either pure bred or from high
grade draft stock, are m 0 r e
often winners than are colts from
scrubs or animals OF mixed breed
ing. This tends to emphasize
the value of consistant selection
TO a certain type wherein d par

haphaZard selection, which IS 50

Bullock First to
Grow Alfalfa
DeadwoOd Man Says He First
Planted Alfalfa in State
Back in 1881

Pierre Dec. Is. Captain Seth
Bullock of Deadwood claims to
have been the first man to start
alfalfa in the limits of Dakota.
With the present day interest in
the growth of this crop, his
statement is of more than pass
ing interest. He says:
I'm 1881 planted upon my
ranch at the mouth of Redwater,
in Butte county, the first alfalfa
seed brought to the territory of
Dakota. | had observed the
growing in Bear River Valley in
Utah, where it was known as
lucerne. | purchased the seed
at Salt Lake City through Cap
tain Thomas Russell of Deadwood
the agent of the Union Pacific
railway and the Wells Fargo Ex-
press company. 1t came to
Cheyenne on the Union Pacific,
and from there to Deadwood by
coach. 1t was planted in June
and a seed crop was raised that
year, some of which was kept on
the ranch, and the rest disposed
of by giving it to any of the few
settlers in the valleys who wish
ed to test the plant on Their
places. 1t was some of this seed
that Tom Jones of Big Bottom
got. In 1882 we had three cut,
tings; in 1883, we also got three
cuttings. In 1884, we again let
the crop go to seed and had it
threshed by Andrew Snyder, a
well knoWn farmer of the Belle
Fourche valley. We retained
tflOaSB u the SetG " put III
thirty additional acres, givir G
the rest to any one who wanted
to get a start in alfalfa, This
was the parent seed of the hardy
alfalfa grown in the Whitewood
and Belle Fourche valleys to this
date. Many # the farmers have
kept their fields intact since 1884
and 1885, as neither freezing or
drouth seemed to affect this
strain of alfalfa. Anyone inter.
ested can see today on the Bull
lock ranch at Belle Fourche, a
field that has produced not less
than three cuttings a year since
it was soWn over thirty years
ago.

Taxpayer Answers
Courier Charges

We rz.sJ with interest the letter
from a taxpayer" published
recently in The b son Courier
and We think it is time that some
one resented the slurring and
insulting remarks made through
the columns of this paper on the
voters Of Perkins county. Politi-
cal rings and politicians there
may be in the Democratic party
but is there not also leaders and
bosses" IN h e Republican
party? We don't deny the fact
that the victory Of the Democrat
ic party was partially due to its
leaders but what political party
can you mention that hasn't its
leaders, but we do resent the
insinuatlOns, that the voters
must have been intoxicated, or
that the voters We're duped. or
that the voters were bought
(all statements which appeared
from time to time in the COurier) q.
We cannot vote, ourselves, but We
have voting husband n d
brother-in-law and a great many
voting friends and we believe
they have mind enough to vote
for whom they think best with
out any political boss telling them
how. and we are very certain
that none of these went to the
voting booth IN an intoxicated.
condition. This taxpayers view
concerns no one here and We bc-
lieve he is entirely Incapable Of
judging the matter. He is Sit
uated in a large city where he
has all the luXuries of a modem

hardships and toll of home

homesteaders were dissatisfied
with the conditions Of affairs at
the county seat, it is their duty
as well as pleasure TO see that g

called dupes. drunks and a few
other improper names. We hoE.

because they did not agree
