An Alfalfa Farm.

The Marysville, Cal, Appeal says:
w. o. Armstead Of Wheatland has
fine alfalfa farm of $50 acres that
rather lays over an ordinary whea t
farm. He has $40 acres of Bear
river valley land stocked down in
alfalfa. It was seeded four or
five years ago. 1t is cnt four
times year and averages little
over seven tons of cured hay to the
acre. The hay is baled and sent to
the mountains. and brings, when
baled $40. 1t nets about 81 90 per
ton. This is something over $50
per acre for hay. In addition to
this Mr.. Armstead estimates that
the land yields him Sc per acre for
Spring and Fall rasturage. This
would make the value Of the whole
alfalfa crop for a year about $50 or
$57 per acre. He does not irrigate
or fertilize the land. The 40 acres
of land brings its owner an income
of about $4,000. This is just a lit
tie better than wheat growing.

Marriage and Divorce,

Writing about marriage and di
vorce in the. North American Re.
view, Judge Noah Davis calls at.
tention to the effect of our lax laws
laxly administered, in undermine
ing the American family, his words
cannot be too widely read:
A large family of children is a
safeguard against divorce. Paren-
tai love, with all the mutual and
tender affection with which it sur
rounds and hallows the family cir
Gle, hovers like a guardian angel
over the sanctity of conjugal love.
Seldom, indeed does Satan's device
the dissolution of the ties of mar
riages-invade such q home. But
I have no doubt its possibility Of
ten goes far to prevent the exist
ence of such homes. Children
have come to be considered obsta-
cles to the freedom of separation,
and whenever that is the case the
malaria of divorce is fatal to ma
ternity. All right perceptions of
Natures law, which is Gods law,
and that righteous patriotism which
seeks to make our own virtuous and
well-trained posterity the strong
hope of nations purity and great
ness are in danger Of being sacri-
feed to our petty conceptions of in
dividual ease to an extent which,
by the laws Of sociology, prefgures
barrenness. And go we Americans
by descent are fast handing over
our country with all its mighty in
terests to the races of immigration
and their defendants, who are
happily taught obedience to the
avs of nature as religious duty.

The Royal Marionettes Tonight.
Don fail to see their entertain
ment. There is no doubt about its
being very pleasant and unique
exhibition. The figures arc made
to represent an immense variety of
characters. The first scene repre-
sents a negro minstrel show, with
all the characters rugged out, with
banjos, violins, etc, in their hands
They get off jokes, sing, dance, and
do other things as in regular min.
strel shows. The talking is, of
course, done by some one behind
the scenes, but it is wonderfully
we'll done. The next scene is a
regular Humpty Dumpty show,
and managed in a most amusing
way. The characters are moved
with great ease and rapidity, and
great number of scenes are intro
duced. The closing scene is one
of the most beautiful ever put on
the stage.
There is = great deal Of mechan-
ical ingenuity exhibited in the en-
tertainment. The scenery is very
fine. Taken altogether it is well
worth seeing.

LITTER SWINE LIGHTLY.

There is but little danger OF horses,
cattle, and sheep being given oomucil
litter; but where swine have q shel-
ter that wards Of winds and rain,
and where the hoys are allowed to
herd together, they require very little
litter. Giving thea too much is q
common error, and is the source OF
nearly all the bronchial and pulmon-
arv diseases which affect hogs il the
late winter and early spring. The
body Of lie hog is OF such 4 nature,
and these animals lie SO close toget!;-
er, that if they have for litter L poor
conductor Of heat. they become over
heated in the shelter and chilled
when they come outside. But the
LIQUID excrenent Of swine is too val
liable to be lost, and they should be
supplied with dry earth. This af-
fords a convenient means Of saving
both solid and liquid excrement, and
does not lead to disease. Wnen
hogs rapidly foul their bed, the litter
should be removed each morning and
. new quantity supplied.
To be profitable. the litter must be
properly composted. Build 3 four
square pen ofpo!cs in any convenient
situation. and place roof over it
that will effectually ward off the rain:
Into this pen throw the litter and
manure, being careful to keep the
mass level or lowest in the middle.
There is no drainage from the pen, as
there is a roof over it. Use enough
litter to hold all the urine; it rots
well, rarely requiring torking-over
before using. 1t is, however, easy to
build another pen TT one, side, and
throw the compost from one to the
other. Frequently fork over the sur
face, going as deep as possible, scat
ter shelled corn over it and turn IN
the hogs, being careful TO turn them
out as soon as they have done root
ing. If the hogs do: not go deep
enough, make holes with a Sharpened
stick, and fill them with slelled corn.
