SEIECTINCALFALFA
SEED IS IMPORTANT
pr. a. n. Hume Suggests That Farm
ers Watch Out for podder Seed
in Selecting Alfalfa.

DIR. A. N. Hume. secretary of the
South Dakota Corn and Grain Grow.
ers' Association, offers the following
suggestions with regard to the import.
ance Of selecting the right kind OF
alfalfa seed.
1t may o be putting 1t too strongly
to say that the right kind of alfalfa
seed is worth its weigh In gold. For
il the seed is Of the right kind, 1t will
make as much for success as any
other one factor in alfalfa production
in South Dakota.
Alfalfa is a perennial crop, intended
to be sown once and to last several
years. 1t is, therefore, only wise to
look well to the seed and the time
that it is own The bane OF the al
falfa grower is dodder.
Learn to look for dodder seed in
alfalfa, even it If takes some time
and study. Do this yourself. Do not
trust entirely to others. Having se-
cured q representative sample Of al
falfa seed, pour it out and spread it
thinly on a white paper. Nearly all
kinds of seeds may be more easily ex-
amined on a white back ground
If there are dodder seeds in alfalfa,
thus spread thinly on white, they will
appear as smaller seeds than those
of alfalfa. If you make absolutely
certain that any foreign seeds appear.
ing in your alfalfa are as large as, or
larger than the alfalfa itself, be not
very fearful of dodder.
But if when you have thus put al
falfa seeds thinly on a white paper,
you see many smaller seeds lying be
tween them, get suspicious immedi.
ately. There may be other weed
seeds than dodder in alfalfa that are
smaller than the alfalfa itself, but in
the meantime, be suspicious.
In addition to the white paper as a
! background, an aid to examining alfal.
ia seed on the farm will be a good
hand lens, or magnifying glass. Look
at some of the small weed seeds with
a strong lens and they will be found
to be not smooth and shiny, but rough
on the surface. Dodder seeds do not
have a polished surface, they have a
dull finish.
Moreover, while the alfalfa seeds
appear distinctly kidney-shaped, the
smaller dodder seeds are much more
Grounded or he~art-shaped.
In looking for dodder seed in al
falfa, train the eye to look for a small
er circular or heartshape, various col
ored, duh finished weed. impurity
That is dodder. Have none of it.

He NEVER PAID A CENT,
AYERS THE ATTORNEY eEnL

Pierre, Dec. Gone Of the main
features brought to the front in the
hearing before the supreme court on
the suit of John Longstaff TO secure
an order to prevent any further pay
ments on what are called the conting-
ent funds. was the contention Of At
torney General Johnson In his genera
demurrer, that Longstaff, the com
plainant had no right OF action, as he
failed to show that he had paid a cent
into any Of the funds mentioned, and
that 70 declare such funds to be ,,l-
constitutional would not only be no
relief TO the complainant, but in fact
increase instead of diminish his taxes
for the maintenance of the state. and
as he would be more injured than
oenented by such a decision as he
contends for he has no right Of action.
On the general proposition, the con-
tention was on the part Of the attor-
ney general, that while he believed
contingent funds to be against public
policy, and citing his report az last
In contention that he urged such
policy on the last legislature. at the
same time there is no constitutional
restriction on the creation Of such
funds by the legislature, and the same
are legal and valid. The contention
OF the opposition by Messrs. Haney
and Null was that contingent funds
are unconstitutional and without right
OF existence, but that the constitution
requires all payments of state funds
be through the general fund.

New News Of Yesterday
A Famous Photograph Of
An American Business
Man
By HOLLAND.

Il am fortunate enough to possess
a photograph which at one time
caused probably a greater amount OF
discussion in England than did any
other photograph ever exhibited by
the Royal Photographic Association
Of Great Britain" said Pirie Mac
Donald-himself man Of long
established artistic prominence-to
me recently.
They have established in London
an authoritative association composed
of those who have been carrying
from year to year the development of
photography TO a higher and higher
artistic plane The annual exhibi-
tions of this society are always an
event in the artistic life of England.
The pictures that are accepted and
exhibited are thoughtfully studied,
and they lead frequently to much
criticism. l do not mean by that
term unfriendly criticism. The pic
lures are studied with a view Of de-
termining whether they contain valu-
able hints which may be of great
service In the development of pho
Biography.
Il think it was about four years
ago that at one of these annual exhi-
. billions, a photograph was exhibited
which attracted more attention than
any other one shown that year. It
was the photograph of a man, not a
/ full-length one, but OF the face and
head poised upon the shoulders. 1t
was about half life size. The picture
and the discussion which It caused
led to considerable popular interest
and even excitement Throngs visited
the galleries every day especially to
look at that picture.
Criticism was divided There was
a considerable body of experts who
I found fault with the picture because
of its realism. There was another
group which defended the picture.

amples of what photography could do

man. Discussion got into the news

I more than any other incident of that
or earlier exhibitions to identity the
two schools of photography-one of
the so-called idealists and the other
of the so-called realists, although
that term is not exactly correct.
