SEED SOLD IN
SHOULD
BE LABELED
Attorney General Cautions
All Statesmen Concerning
Statute Just Passed

Warning that all corn, sweet clo-
yer, red clover and alfalfa seed sold
in the state must conform to the re.
quircments Of Senate Bill No. ~.
passed at the recent legislative SEES
sion, was issued here today by At
torney General George Shafer.
The attorney general has had sew.
cral queries on the subject and said
il might be well to call to the at
tentiOn Of farmers and seed dealers
the fact that the bill now Is in ef-
feet and violation OF its provisions
are punishable by law.
The bill is intended to protect
farmers against seed imported from
other states and sold here despite the
fact that it may be unsuited to North
Dakota conditions. It requires that
all corn, sweet and red clover and
alfalfa seed be plainly labeled with
the commonly accepted name or var
iety, the name of the person or firm
offering it for sale; the per cent Of
termination and the date Of last test
for termination, and the name Of the
county and state in which the seed
was grown, in the case Of seed corn,
and the name Of the state where
grown in the case Of alfalfa seed.
The bill is important, the attorney
general has been advised by North
Dakota seedsmen, in that it prevents
seed dealers from selling 'seeds
grown in other states on the same
basis as the North Dakota product.
In a letter to the attorney general
Ransom county scotsman said:
"This state has had several bad sea.
sons for growing corn. Consequently
homegrown seed corn is not very
plentiful. Last spring q lot Of un.
scrupulous fellows shipped in sew.

Infusion of Blood
From Parents Said

fusion Of few drops Of parental
blood into q child will prove an eff
fcctive preventative against measles.
believes DR. Rudolph Degkwitz. direc
tor Of the clinic for childrcn's dis
eases at the University Of Greifs-
valid, Germany.
Prof. Degkwitz has been working
on "a measles serum at the hygienic
laboratory Of the United States Pub
lie Health Service, recognizing that,
while such dread epidemic diseases
as typhoid, malaria, cholera. and
dyscntery no longer are Il serious
menace, the less feared germs of
measles, whooping cough and influ-
enza continue to BATTLE science.
Spread of those three diseases. he
holds, is facilitated by the growing
tendency Of populations to concen-
trate in cities.
Explaining his blood incubation
theory, Prof. Dcgkwitz, who ranks
az one Of Gcrmany's foremost au-
thorities on measles. asserts:
ut is we'll known fact that the
blood Of former victim is proof
against subsequent infection, and, as
it is commonly assumed that every
adult person once was afflicted with
measles, its blood carries the natural
germ which insures immunity
against second attack. Its trans
fusion into the child has proven, in
Europe, an effective protection
against an initial case of measles"
Until this simple expedient be-
comes thoroughly appreciated and
adopted, however, he thinks it will be
necessary to provide a serum fol-
commercial distribution, so his worn
at the hygienic laboratory has beer
directed toward the preparation of 9
culture from the blood Of inoculated
animals. He expects the serum thus
produced to check measles even il
the patient has already reached thu
fcbrile stage.

October Saw Highest Level
Notwithstanding continued ag-
gressive activity. the stock market
bulls have never been able to whip
quotations up to the average level
reached in the first week of Oc-
tober.
That statement may astonish
many who had assumed the mar.
ket has been gong up and up.
Last week brought only slight net
changes at the close ct each day,
and average prices closed almost
exactly where they began.
Such action, in view of the not.
able activity in speculation, sug-
gests to shrewd students of Wall
Street that liquidation has been
quietly going on from important
sources.
Again little attention was paid
to developments orr the floor of
the stock exchange-especia to
unfavorable developments.
The rise in call money to the
moderate figure of per cent at
the end OF the week caused more
talk than the startling decrease
in railway freight to the lowest
total Of any corresponding week
since 1921. Indeed, no non.holiday
week had made so poor a show
ing in three years and eight
months. The shrinkage, as COM
pared with a year ago, reached
Is per cent. Latest railway earn
ings statements, in many in
stances, also reveal quite severe
declines.
Bank clearings, on the other
hand, make much better show
ing, but this Is due entirely to
the rampant speculation in stocks.
The Federal Reserve Boards lat.
est report discloses that the ex.
pansion Of more than $1.400. 000,-
900 in bank loans and investments
during the last year is attributable
wholly to security demand and
