King Of Alfalfa.

Judge a. W. VanCamp. of Holt
county. was in the city, recently.
There is nothing special in this an

Judge would not thank anyone for
making anything spectator he H.

broad Holt county farm and make
more money each year from alfalfa.
than the ordinary farmer makes hay
or words to that effect.
Judge NanCamp, to be brief about
IL, is the father of the alfalfa indus
try, which has made him and all of
his ncighbors rich-and the ncighbofs
are all rich simply from the fact that
Judge NanCamp had the pcrspecui'y
and the perspective to see far enough
ahead and deep cough in, 10 give
them that opportunity.
When the late Charles 7. Cochran
was in congress there was not n
pound of alfalfa raised IN his dis
trict. The federal agricultural de-
partmcnt desired to make a test of
raising alfalfa In states that did not
grow II, and that department there
fore turned over eight pccks Of al
falfa seed to Congressman Cochran
with the request that he have IL tried
out in his section.
Congressman Cochran sent tho seed
10 his representative in ~. Joseph,
and surely that representative had a
job trying TO get people to give II a
test. IN the six counties which CONE
prise this congressional district, the
repre- sentative succeeded by renting
land and paying for the test. in hav-
ing the seed placed. Al of the farm.

When the Cochran representative

Judge harvested a. high n three

and then n finale thrcshcd the seed
