The Longevity Of Alfalfa.

The American Agriculturist recently
had an article on alfalfa in Colorado in
which the writer said the plant was first
seeded eight years ago. To our certain
knowledge, Major Jacob Downing had al
falfa sowed in his door. yard as early as
1868, and the next year L., Z. Perrin
sowed five pounds Of California seed in
his field. The seed was furnished by Mr..
Perrin's brother, who had made great
success of it in the Sacramento valley. As
far back as 1872 fourteen years ago
the colonists of Greedy were sowing al
falfa, and some Of the original meadows
still produce fine stands Of it. VI
In this connection 1t may be said that
alfalfa will hold its growth in ordinary
soil for at least period Of forty years
in fact no man Of our acquaintance has
ever tried it long enough to ellexactly
how many years it win remain in peren.
NAL rotation. sS
The writer once interviewed an old ma,
tive ranchero on his hacienda in the state
of chihuahua, Mexico. The old don had
a grand vega Of hardy alfalfa on the sec:
ond bottom, and the writer was informed
4 that it had been growing there for fifty
4 two years. Tho plant was healthy AM
4 vigorous. and Ind been subject to cutting
!. every six weeks Of its growth. This trii
/ to Mexico was two years ago, and wesup
4 pose thestand isstill growing, as 1t show
led no signs Of decay. It may last seven
ty-fiye, q hundred or two hundred year,
for all we may know of its probable long
4 eyity. "a s.

Later reports state the loss by the
burning Of the Miles City Dressed Beef

there was no insurance. The butchers
passed through Medora last week on
their way to Chicago and report that
the intention Of rebuilding, has been

bitter Feeling Among south Carolina
Piantnrs Against tho Knights OF Labor.
COLUMBIA, S c., Dec. lS.--The action
OF some white men in this state who are
commissioned organizers Of the Knights
Of Labor has caused much bitter feeling
against the order by farmers. Some Of
the state papers are denouncing IN
the strongest terms the proposed
organization OF the negroes in the rural
districts. AT this dute OF depression
and agricultural poverty II Is considered
by many as,criminal ~ arTsystl.Q a iered
people against their white empfuSers.
Mr.. w. p Russell, state organizer OF the
Knights Of Labor, In answering newspa-
per comments is bitter. He says; "In
your ignorance you may think that me-
chancs and lRborers are not American
citizens and that laborers in the rural
distr cts OF South Carolina are 10 be used,
as law, intolerant men In these districts
choose to dictate; that they are not
freemen, and shall work for what pay you
choose 10 allow them for the small Kline
at work upon "backbone," and when
that bone is gone, beg for bread the rest
OF their years"
Some papers advise the farmers "to
shoot" ali white men like Russell
II they try to organize negro
Knights OF Labor, and run them
from the neiehborhood. They adj
wise the legislature TO appropriate money
for the maintenance Of militia, as well
equipped soldiers would be needed
II this organization goes on, and
tpis the legislature has done. To
further protect the farmers
against this organization OF colored peo.
pie living on their plantations, the
senate has passed by large msjorlty,
and the house will doubtless make IL q
law, bill making It conspiracy, punish
able by fine and imprisonment, TO Inter
fere between employer and employee IN
any contract. The possibility Of strike

crop Of the state would he loss II not
gathered, was the principal argument used
together with the declaration that II a

more blood would be spilled than last

WASHINGTON, Dec. 1s.-There is con-

sert that the venerable congressman from

opinion is based on the fact that the
judge was absent to-day when the vote
was taken on the tariff bill. Pages we're
sent out over the capital 10 bring
him into the house, but he
could not be found in hts accustomed re-
sort, The clerk called his name four
times without response. The runners
were spread abroad that something had
happened 10 him aud subsequent events

rescued from the bath.Toom aud with
great haste made his way 10 the

on the tariff had not been re-
corded. II MIR. Reagsn's temperament

well, but his stoical expression upon ilad.

served as an additional reason why his
colleagues should guy him. NJ. Reagan
was greatly mortified and certainly feels
greatly chargrined. A colleague from
Texas remarked iovlally; "This ia the

'Resgan's bath" IL likely 20 be by
