time than at any other stage OF
growth. Excessively hot weather fol-
lowing the seeding is apt to result dis
astrously. Twenty to thirty pounds Of
seed should be sown per acre.
Alfalfa will thrive best on fertile
loan soil underlaid with a porous,
moist subsoil. 1t will produce fair
crop. however, upon poor land, bring
ing the nitrogen down from the air
and the minerals up from the depths
below. and adding to the fertility OF
the soil upon which it feeds, Moisture
in the soil is the one condition indis-
pensable to a good crop OF alfalfa 1t
is q deep feeder, exploiting the sub
terranean stores of moisture and the
hidden mineral elements of the earth,
The soil before seeding should be put
in the finest possible filth and freed
from weed seeds Alfalfa should not
be sown until the ground is moist
enough to terminate the seed imme-
diately. If not covered too deeply, it
may be either drilled or broadcasted
with equal probabilities Of success.
Weeds should not be allowed to shade
or crowd the young plants, and are
best removed with the moving ma
chine.
1t is never safe in Kansas to pasture
alfalfa with cattle or sheep, on &C
count of the liability to bloat the ami
mails. There Is even some danger IN
feeding the hay if it should happen
to get wet Steers can be fattened on
one third less corn with alfalfa for
roughness than without Owing to its
high protein content, too much may
be red to fattening animals to secure
the most economical gains. Horses
when not working do exceedingly well
on alfalfa pasture. It is not best to
feed too much OF it to working ami
mails. If mixed with other hay, there
is no better horse feed. A good stand
of alfalfa can be very easily destroyed
by overpasturing with hogs. To NOW
the green feed and haul it out to the
pigs in a different enclosure is more
economical than to pasture 1t. Pigs
can be grown for almost half the
usual cost, if green alfalfa be added
TO their ordinary ration. 1t pays TO
feed them the hay in winter provid
ing they get grain in addition.

how THEY AVOID A BLACK LIST
The Industrial Commission Hears About
Peculiar Letters of Recommendation.

The Industrial Commission Hears About
Peculiar Letters of Recommendation.
WASHINGTON, Jan. &c A. Mosely,
secretary of the interstate commerce
commission was witness to-day be-
fore the federal industrial commission
He cited the difficulty in proving a
blacklistlng system, explaining that
many railroads, after the Debs strike,
had freely given letters of recommen-
dation to former employees. but had
phrased them so as to notify the sym
pathizing companies that the recon-
mended man had been blacklisted.
He recommended legislation prohib-
iting the courts from attempting to
enforce personal performance of labor
contracts by mandatory process, citing
an instance from the Ann Arbor road
where Lennon, an engineer, had been
fined and imprisoned for refusing to
take out his locomotive after the court
had ordered him to return to work,
the judge having been transported
in a private car and having issued his
injunction in the company's office. He
referred to the fact that the safety APP
pliance act, passed in 1898, did not go
into effect until 1898 and that all ex-
cept about 80 per cent of the roads had
installed the master car builders
coupler. He referred to the railroad
man as in measure public servant
and declared that railroad strike
here, if large enough, might starve an
entire section of the country.

Kanir Corn in Oklahoma.

The experiments with Kaf1r corn at
the experiment station in 1898 add to
the evidence of the great value Of
this crop Of Oklahoma. In the tests
as to the thickness of planting five
plats gave an average yield at rate
of 81 bushels threshed grain, Sc
pounds to the bushel-ranging from
80 to 102 bushels per acre; six others
gave average yield at rate Of 70 BUSH
els per acre.
The largest yields were where the
corn was planted thicker than most
farmers think best, when the grain
is the part chiefly desired. With rows
three feet apart four p1ats, where the
stalks averaged one to a little over
four inches, gave yield at rate of 80
bushels; ten plats with stalks aVerag-
ing one to each eight inches gave
yields at rate Of 45 bushels, and six
plats, where the stalks averaged one
for little over IL inches, gave yields
at rates of "a bushels per acre. Where
the rows were 80 inches or A inches
apart the yields decreased with the
thinner planting in about same pro-
portion. The thicker planting gave a
larger total yield as well as larger
yields of seed. Two plats gave yields
of slower at rate Of over ~ tons per
acre.
The yields in 1897 were much small
er than those in 1898 but, as this year,
the largest yields were where the rows
were three feet apart and the stalks
were at the rate of one for each six
inches or less. 1t is believed that, for
| average upland soils in the territory
it is advisable to plant so as to have
one stalk at about each two inches in
| rows three feet apart. The weight
of stalks and leaves is greater and
the quality better than with thinner
| planting.
The "Black Hulled White" was the
variety used. The land had been CIV
en- a coating Of stable manure. The
cultivation was not exceptional in any
way.

Escts ON Alfalfa.

George L. C1othier, assistant botan-
st Of the Kansas Experiment Station,
has been Investigating alfalfa as
grown In Kansas and has come to the
following conclusions:
Suitable locations may be found In
any part of Kansas for the growth Of
alfalfa that will produce one half to
g tons, or an income per annum, cal
culated on the basis of digesible nu-
trients, of 81 to $50 per acre II har-
vested as it is coming into blossom,
alfalfa furnishes more nutritious feed
than if LEFT to grow tough and woody.
Wien intended for horse feed, the
stems should be allowed to become
somewhat ripened and the pods set
before it is harvested. Moving often
does not injure the plants, but slim
ulates the vital processes It should
be sown late enough If IN the spring,
and early enough IL IN the fall to
guard against the possibility of frost
catching the young plants with only
their first two leaves developed The
youEG plants are more tender ct this

Active Demand for Hardwood.

t"The hardwood trade is really in
more satisfactory condition than that
pertaining to the soft woods" says
the Northwestern Lumberman. There
iu not a weak spot in the market any
where. Though the season is near an
end. and consumers are inclined to re-
strict their purchases to necessities,
there yet has been but little slacken-
Jug of the urgent movement which has
characterized the trade ali season Dry
stocks at the mills, north and south,
have been sold OF, even what Woule
ordinarily be considered rin-rah haV-
ing been cleaned up. The demand this
season has predominantly been Tor
common and Gull lumber. the call for
frsts and seconds having been less
than usual, except when lumber was
required for export. The greater de-
mand from all sorts Of consumers has
been for common lumber, that SEEM
ing to have been as good stock as they
required. This excessive demand has
absorbed common oak faster than II
could be dried, with the result that
there is a shortage all over the coun-
try. Thick ash has also been sold out
to the extent of scarcity at the mills
south, and at market points. Black
ash in the north has become almost
an unknown market quantity, and the
same can be said of Michigan soft elm.
1t is also said that the greater por-
ton Of Wisconsin Eastwood has
changed hands, and the demand for
Gull is in excess of the ready supply.
Poplar has done better this season
than for years, and the demand is still
well maintained, while prices are firm
at s1.50 to So a thousand higher than
q wear ago."

TO KILL CIVIL SERVICE LAW.
The Appropriation Is Voted Down
in the House.
PROCEEDINGS THE SENATE.

WASHINGTON, Jan s.-The anti-civi1
service reformers scored a victory IN
the House yesterday. The legislative,
executive and judicial appropriation
bill was taken up for consideration
and when the appropriation for the
civil service commission was reached,
Mr.. Evans, Republican, of Kentucky,
made a motion to strike it out. This
motion has been made annually for
dozen years or more, and has in
variabIy failed But yesterday the
opponents of the law laid great
stress on the fact that they
could not get direct vote upon the
proposition, and were, therefore, COM
PEELED to seek its notification in this
manner. Even these appeals failed to
bring out the full strength cf the op-
position, though the motion to strike
out carried by a narrow majority, CT
61- This was in committee of the
whole, where no record is made of the
vote Mr.. Moody, Republican, of Mas
sachusetts, gave notice that he would
demand record vote in the house,
where the friends of the civil service
law expect to reverse the decision.
Those who advocated the motion to
strike out We're: Messrs. Evans of
Kentucky, Grosvenor of Ohio, Hep
burn of Iowa, Linney of North Caro-
lima, Brown of Ohio, and Marsh of Illi-
nois, all Republicans.
Its opponents were Messrs Moody of
Massachusetts,, Hopkins of Illinois,
Fleming of Georgia, Brosius of Penn
sylvania, Henderson of Iowa, and Dol
liver of Iowa, all Republicans except
Fleming.

the results of the inquiries made are
