Alfalfa for Hogs.

Texas farmers pay little attention to
seed crops other than corn. but from
the experience of Nebraska shipper
who recently topped The Kansas City
market with load of hogs, alfalfa is
even better feed than our great stand
by. The shipper in question said to
the Drovers Telegram:
''Alfalfa is the only thing that saved
my part of the country. 1t is the only
reason [ am living in Western Nebras-
ka. That load o. So 40 hogs was fed on
alfalfa nearly altogether and had al
ways been allowed the run of the past
ure. They were only about S months
old, yet they weighed round 290 lbs.

section, which is well known to be
about the dryest country in the west,
we can raise three good crops, besides
the seed crop, every year. 1t grows
from 30 to So inches in height and will
stand the dry weather longer than any
other plant ever tried in that country.
The roots are often 10 feet in length
mans wrist. Another reason is that it
is SO well liked by stock of all kinds.
When 1 drive into my feed lots with
load the pics come running for 1t, the
same as do the cattle.
81 raised my first crop in 1881 and it
has needed no attention since. My
farm consists OF about 600 acres and is
well stocked, and all the animals on
the place have free access to the pas
lures and acks of cured alfalfa. There
is not a runty pig on the farm. All the
work horses are fat, and l haven't
COW but would make good beef. My
neigh bors who raise alfalfa report the
same conditions.
Zone popularity about this plant is
that load of we'll cured alfalfa, If
exposed to the rain or even a heavy
fog, will freshen up and look like the

IT is questionable whether the bill
prohibiting the sale of railroad tickets
by any person other than regularly
authorized agents of railroad compan-
les will stand the test of the courts.
When person purchases and pays for
q railroad ticket, or any other piece of
property, such person has the inherent
right, and ought to have the legal
right to dispose of such ticket or other
property at his own option.
