Prof. 8. J. Hunter Presents
Some Valuable Ideas.

Many people staid away from Repre-
sentative hall last night because when
they looked up at the windows the
lights were not visible. Concluding that
there was no attraction some went
away. but they missed a stereopticon
exhibition by S. J. Hunter of the state
university.
The subject of the paper was alfalfa
In connection Herewith was a discus
sion of insect life by Mr.. Hunter.
In presenting the subject of alfalfa to
the board of agriculture Mr.. Hunter
suggested a new method of dealing with
the plant. The experiment of disking
alfalfa. fields in the spring and then
cross narrowing with a slant tooth har-
row, tried in western Kansas for two
years in succession, was explained in
full
The result shown by photographs of
the fields in which the harvesters were
at work astonished the farmers. The
yield was heavier per acre and the
plants bore more foliage than those
which were not so cultivated and the
crops were matured more rapidly than
on fields where the methods OF sowing
the alfalfa and thereafter permitting
the crop to get on as best it could, were
employed.
The photographs exhibited by the
lantern portrayed an unusual develop
ment in the alfalfa plant. The disks
in passing over the roots of the plant,
did not cut them, but spread them

Sensible Hint
on Food
From a
California Woman.

IF you could hear all the experiences
I have been at some pains to investi-
gate, you. would put warning in the
largest type on the boxes of CRAZE
Nuts and beg ~ consumers toSlimit
themselves to the amount mentioned in
the directions
True you do say Grapefruit food is
condensed; eat but three or four heap
ing teaspoons at meal" but the food
seemed to fill such long-felt want
and every one found it so delicious,
either alone or in combination with
some other aterial, that,overlooking the
small type announcement of its being
condensed, they have eaten too much
and when the body is repeatedly given
more food than it can use, even if that
food be most delicious, there is a nat
ural revulsion, and the long-looked-for
and valuable food is laid aside
I advise persons who have had this
experience to put Grapefruit" on their
menu again and eat never more than
four teaspoonfuls at a time. Then one
gets the powerful rebuilding strength
of the food and looks forward with zest
to each coming meal. It has been a.
great blessing to our family" Mrs. w.

Revolution In Venezuela Is Not Yet
Ended.

New York, Jan. ia dispatch to the
Herald from Port of Spain says:
It is announced here upon apparently
good authority that notwithstanding
the official statement of the Venezue-
Ian government that the revolution in
that country was at an end, the insur-
rection is still active. 1t is declared
that two days after the government had
announced the revolution closed Gen
eral Hernandez inflicted a severe de-
feat upon the government troops at
Ell Naipse. The same authority says
the rebels took many prisoners, cap
tured 1862 Nauser rifles, 6S cases of cart
ridges, many flags, seven cannon and
three Maxims, while the government
loss in killed was heavy.
Reports from the east coast of Vene-
zuela say that the revolutionists I'M
der Generals Antonio Neci and Jose
Diaz have successfully attacked the
government forces. which retired. Seven
of the government troops were killed
and ten We're wounded. Among those
killed We're Domingo Neci, brother of
the revolutionary leader. 1t is also re-
ported that the government troops have
been surrounded at Guerra by the revo-
lutionists under General Ducharme.

Russia's Siberian Railroad Must All
Be Rebuilt

Washington, Jan. 13.-Before the COM
pletion of the Siberian railway it has
become necessary to reconstruct the
work already done. and this will cost
not less than $250OO,00O. The informa-
ton is supplied to the state department
by Commercial Agent Greene at Via
divosto. His report compiled from
Russian sources, shows a curious con-
dition of affairs on the road. In the
haste of construction and the anxiety
to get everything cheap the road was
laid with a 12-pound rail instead of a
24-pound rail. The bridges were built
of wood, and crossings were made far
apart Consequently more than 20 miles
an hour can not be made on the level
with safety. Only one passenger and
two freight trains a day are run. To
add to the danger there has been put
on the line one of the heaviest engines
in existence, the compound system. The
light rails, the steep incline and the
high grading combined make travelling
risky. On. steep inclines, owing to the
light rails, the heavy engine can not
be held and running at a speed of 80
miles an hour turns the rails out. There
fore, it has been concluded that the
road must be reconstructed on broader
lines.

apart in such shape that new shoots
appeared and sent out foliage bearing
branches which increased the yield
materially.
While these experiments were not
conducted on an unusual scale in the
past two years, Professor Hunter has
made arrangements to attempt it in all
better seed.

proving by chemical analyses that the
product of the alfalfa flower is the
purest, whitest and best. It is also
larger than that of any other flower.
Alfalfa fed bees in western Kansas
produced an average of so pounds to the
hive in several communities while some
hives went as high as 200 pounds for
the year.
These figures will astonish you,'
said the professor, but they are true. -

and it can not be that this work and it's
influence are for naught. If by them
something has been subtracted from the
burdens of those who subdued the wild
erness and out of it evolved an imper-
iai commonwe alth, and something been
added to the sum total Of the comfort
and happiness of these state builders
and those who come after them. our
labors and living will not have been
without purpose.
Gentlemen, the esteem and conf
dence you have shown me are priced
more than any faltering words of mine
can express; they are inadequate to
thank you. Let US hope that gratitude
may find it's best expression in faithful
performance rather than in pretentious
promise
