The Dewey Rose.

Rosarians are greatly disturbed be-
cause OF the interference OF florists
with the names Of roses. Considerable
indignation is expressed at the way In
which the Dean Hole" rose has been
placed upon the market as the "Ad-
miral Dewey" rose. In 1894, when
Dean Hole OF Rochester, England, Wis
tied this country, the rose Caroline
Testout" produced distinct sport and
this sport was christened at a banquet
given to Dean Hole by the most emf
nent floriculturfsts OF the United States
In honor OF the guest This rose was
again christened in Madison Square
the year following, and the owner, Mr.
Taylor, was awarded a certificate. At
several subsequent Horticultural high
functions the name was indorsed. After
Admiral Dewey's great victory, how
ever, a New York rose dealer, who had
become possessed OF the Dean Hole"
sold the cut flowers as admiral
Dewey" roses. The rose growers, who
have hitherto been In the final court Of
roses, are not disposed to concede this
privilege; and it is only the great glory
and honor of Devey's name that keeps
them from legally testing the question
Of nomenclature In this particular case.
1t may be that Admiral Dewey may
have to defend his rose with his sword.

Kanar Corn In Oklahoma

The experiments with Kaf1r corn al
the experiment station in 1898 add to
the evidence of the great value OF
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 Is 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 plats, where the
stalks averaged one to a little over
four inches, gave yield at rate of SO
bushels; ten plats with stalks averag-
ing one to each eight inches gave
yields at rate of 40 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
tuluueT pidutlHS III 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 IL tons per
acre.
The yields in 1897 were much small
err 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. It is believed that, for
average upland soils In the territory
1t 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.

1t is never safe in Kansas to pasture
alfalfa with cattle or sheep, on ac-
count of the liability to bloat the ami
mails. There Is even some danger In
feeding the hay II 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 fed to fattening animals to secure
the most economical gains. Horses
when not working do exceedingly well
on alfalfa pasture. 1t is. not best to
feed too much of It to working anil
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 1t out to the
pigs in a different enclosure Is more
economical than to pasture It Pigs
can be grown for almost half the
usual cost, II green alfalfa be added
