only about one-half the water used was
used on alfalfa as on the native hay
An average Of these fourteen measure
ments made at Laramie as set forth
in the above mentioned table show the
depth Of water applied to alfalfa to have
been 2.22 feet. An average Of SIX

FAMOUS TURKEsTAN ALFALFA.
The first seed Of this alfalfa was I'm
ported and sent out by the Department
Of Agriculture in 1895. Little atten-
ton was given 1t until the severe
weather of winter before last put Its
hardness to the test. On all parts Of
the farm plots Of the Wyoming Station
the ordinary alfalfa showed more OF
less winter killing, but not a single
plant Of the Turkestan variety had been
hurt. Similar reports vert received
by the Department Of Agriculture from
many other sections. Not only does
II seem harder but It has generally
produced heavier yields than the COM
mon alfalfa. On the Wyoming Ex-
pertinent Station farm. averaging the
results for the last two seasons. when
cut for hay and cured alike. the Turk
estan variety clearly showed superior
cropping qualities, producing v e three
fourths Of a ton more hay per acre.
Secretary, Wilson Of the Depart
ment OF Agriculture is greatly pleased
at the discovery Of this variety Of al
falfa and Its apparent hardness and
heavy yielding qualities and his De-
partner. is preparing to introduce IT
generally throughout the West. Farm
ers who desire to make a trial Of it
should mail a request to the Secretary
Of Agriculture at Washington for some
seed.

The best time to irrlgate alfalfa is i'm

MODERATE WATERING.
Too much water is fatal either in

irrigated one-half OF a field Of alfalfa

half without water. The part irrigated

Washington, Dec. 10. - lust before
%adjourning late yesterday afternoon
the senate gave it's consent to the
fixing of a definite time to vote upon
the Hay-Pauncefote treaty. Senator's
Money and Mason had occupied the
time of the executive session in maxi
ing speeches Upon the treaty, and
when Mr.. Mason, who was the last
speaker, concluded, Senator Lodge re-
newed his request to take a vote next
Thursday. No voice was raised in op-
position and the unanimous agree
ment was recorded. The understand
ing Is that the voting shall begin ON
the amendments at 3 o'clock and that
the senate Shall continue in session
until the first vote on the treaty itself
is reached.
senator Moneys speech was a fat
protest against the entire proceeding in
connection with the treaty. He talked
for two hours, %contending for the right
OF the United States to act in this mat
ter independently of other nations.
He said the conditions had changed
greatly since 1850, when the Clayton
BulWer treaty was made, and added
that While the interest Of Great Brit
ain in constructing a canal across the
isthmus and in maintaining its neu-
trality had diminished greatly because
Of the construction of the Suez canal,
h interest of the United States in an
tsthmian canal had been vastly en-
HANGED because Of growing trade and
our newly acquired possessions in the
Orient.
Senator Mason spoke in support OF
his suggested amendment authorizing
the United States to defend the canal
as it seemed proper in case it con-
structs the canal. He presented the
arguments in support Of our right to
defend the waterway in concise and
forcible terms, and received careful
attention.
