Fargo, N. D.. Dec. 19.-The win
ming OF first prize in both alfalfa and
sweet clover seed at the International
Grain and Hay show, held recently at
Chicago. by the Stebbins brothers Of
near Minor, N. D.. is an unusual If
not unprecedented fact. according to
Fl. L. Walster. agronomist of the
North Dakota agricultural college
here. -
The North Dakotans won against
keen competition, according to the
agronomist, for both Minnesota and
Canada, who we're the respective
winners Of these honors last year.,
were at the show with splendid
samples OF seed. Canada won second
in alfalfa this year.
In this connection the agronomist
declared that North Dakotans are
not keeping enough of the Grimm
North Dakota prairies/. Ninety per
of the seed grown in this state is
being sold to the alfalfa planters Of
other states, he adds. Not only should
more seed be retained in the state for
the purpose Of raising still more seed,
but also it should be grown 4 more
generally for feed. y

the North Dakota land is being in

is not as uncertain as it was in the

21,397 acres Of alfalfa and 15O,897
acres OF sweet clover and the two
crops are spreading so rapidly that
even the alfalfa is adapting the GUS
tom of the sweet clover and is habi-
tating itself by the roadside and in
uncultivated places. There r sew
