CHARTER OAK PARK,

Win All Three Races-The Finishes
Close and Exciting.
HARTFORD, Aug. 21.-Quite 8, 500 persons
saw the races at Charter Oak park to-day, q
most encouraging attendance for the first
day. The weather was pleasant, thu track
was in splendid condition and the racing
was interesting. All three of the races
were won by the favorites. O. ]. Hamlin
captured two of them. His Nightingale
won the 2:19 trotting race and his Robert
J. won the free-for-a all pace. The third
race. the 2:25 trot, was won by Darlington,
after that horse had been knocked out of
the first heat by an accident. Darlington
broke at the first turn In the first heat
Guy Miller, the driver, tried to get out of
the way of Jessie Sheridan, but in some
way they got together and Jessie's foot
struck into the wheel of Darlington's sui
Ky. The wheel was wrenched off, Miller
was pitched out and the horse was thrown
down. Vandenburgh, who was driving
Jessie Sheridan, had to bring her TO stand
still. Only Rose Filkins and Shipman
finished the heat. Clay Forest was taken
from the track before the heat was started,
on account of his bad behavior in scoring.
AS the accident seemed due to no ones
carelessness or bad intent, both horses
were permitted by the judges to start in
the next heat.
Grants Abdallsh lowered the track'sreo-
ord by taking the third heat of the pacing
race in Gil. The best previous perform
ance on the Charter Oak track was by
Little Brown Jug about ten years ago,
when the mile was done in 2:11f. Many
of the finishes TO- day were close and excit-
ing and there was an apparent effort on
the part of all the drivers to win If posi-

How Alfalfa Improves Soil.

In answer TO a gentleman who wants
the fact explained why land In Colora-
do that has raised large crops OF al
ialin will produce much larger crops
OF wheat and barley than when tho
land was now, correspondent to the
Country Gentleman says that lit Is
not difficult OF explanation. Wheat,
hurley and other small grains obtain
their nourishment from the five or six
inches OF top soil and when that Is
materially diminished these crops are
reduced and the fertility must be re-
ncwcd before large crops can again be
raised. Loguminous plants. such ms
peas. red clover and alfalfa, must 90
deeper for nutrimcnL Peas draw
mostly from six to ten inches. clover
from eight to sixteen inches and al
falfn goes straight down to great
depths and draws all its nourishing
matter TO perfect its great crops from
depths much below any Of the others
mentioned. So it will be seen that
for all small grain crops alfalfa does
not impoverish the soil Mt all however
long it may be raised, as it gets all its
nourishment from n strata much be-
low the one worked In ordinary agri-
culture
These very large roots OF alfalfa,
boring so deeply into the earth. per-
form a wonderful service in bringing
up those vast stores of fertility TO the
top soil within reach Of the roots OF
all OF the small grains. 1t gives com
