MORE ALFALFA
Ten Carloads of Good Alfalfa
Seed Available

A trip has recently been made by
Frank E. Balmer. Supervisor of Coun-
ty Agents, securing the remainder of
the alfalfa seed that is being pur-
chased by the Development Associa-
tion for West Central Minnesota.
Samples were obtained from ten
carloads of seed from South Dakota
and Montana and tests of same have
just been completed at the State Seed
Laboratory. All samples tested are
giving satisfactory termination and
high purity tests. No sample obtained
contained anxious weeds and it is
stated that those having seed to sell
have learned the quality of seed de-
manded by the people of the Develop
ment Association and nothing was
brought forth for sampling but what
was of the very best grade.
In buying the seed it was insisted
that the history of the various fields
from which the seed was obtained be
known for then there was assurance
of securing seed for old fields or from
old stock Information has also been
secured of the exact location where
each lot of seed was grown for it is
important to know that the seed was
produced without irrigation and under
conditions of open exposure.
All seed being purchased is northern
grown, hardy, of registered strains,
of high purity and termination and is
being obtained for purchasers at cost.
1t is believed that this great under
taking of cooperative seed purchase
has made possible the securing of gen.
uine northern grown alfalfa seed al
the most reasonable price ever OBJ.

is no question concerning the efficiency
in the purchase, marketing and dis
tribrtion that has been followed II
this transaction. and in any similar
transaction. On the one hand the
producers were brought together 81
that their product could be handled
in other than fractional lots and the
cooperation of purchasers on tht
other hand in receiving car lots made
possible the securing of a lower origin
al cost price of seed and reduced
transportation charges.

Reatinn II In.

DR.. Brandes, in his lecture on Shake
speare's Hamlet" said the interest of
Shakespeare was to be found in story
and not in psychology. Elizabethan art
was intended for an audience who read
but little. Like all early art, it was ex-
plicit. The conditions were similar to
those in the story of the old London
stage manager, who said:
"If you want the British public to
understand anything you must tell
them what you are going to do next,
that you are doing it, and, last, that
you have done it," and he finished by
saying, Then they will perhaps under
stand you."-Pall Mall Gazette.
