folly Of those who destroyed the great
forests in order to be able to plow the
ground. We see that the great crop of
trees was of more value than the puny
crops which man now grows with much
labor and WEAKNESS. But while we see
the folly Of the forest destroyers, we
are scarcely able to see that we, our
selves, have been guilty of similar short
sightedness in destroying our natural
pastures and meadows. We have per-
haps hopelessly destroyed nearly all the
rich grazing ground Of eastern Nebras-
ka. We have worn out wild pastures,
and where succulent grasses grew there
are now only bitter weeds. AS of old,
because of our folly, the ground is
cursed for our sake, and it brings forth
thorns and thistles."
II may close this paper with refer
ence to Alfalfa and the part it should
play in supplying forage to the stock
upon the high plains. 1t seems to me
that eventually these higher lands will
be devoted to grazing, and that general
agriculture will have to give way to the
more profitable industry of stock grow
ing, and the growth under irregation of
such crops and vegetables as are de-
manded by the stock growers and their
animals. These great stretches of coun-
try can support millions of cattle and
sheep during the summer, and the rich
irrigable valleys seem destined to be
used very largely for the supply of such
additional forage as may be necessary
to carry them through the winter.
Here is where that admirable forage
plant, Alfalfa, with it's ready adapt
ability to the conditions of irrigation,
becomes of so much Importance. With
good area of Alfalfa under irrigation
in the western region, the amount of
stock may be very greatly increased.
I look to see the great valley of the
North Platte bear the same relation to
the surrounding drier country that the
fertile Nile valley does to Egypt. Here
will be grown Alfalfa, Timothy, Glover,
and the wild hay grasses, upon which
the herds of cattle will be fed and fat
tened in the winter. Here, too, will be
grown those crops for the supply of
food for men and their families who live
here to care for their stock. Such a
development of the industries of the
high plains will, in my opinion, event.
ually make this one of the richest and
most prosperous portions Of the state of

FAIRY GOLD.

The footsteps of the summer fade
Far through the meadow and the glade.
And Autumn. laughing, brown and gay.
Comes dancing down the woodland way.
Her russell wand she waves and, 10!

With treasures wondroUs and untold
flooding tide of fairy gold
All foolish Winter-fast he flies
To clutch, with miser's hand. the prize;
Nainly he strips the branches bare
The magic treasures fade in air.
His eager. shivering fingers hold
No remnant of the fairy gold.
And, crOuching sulenly. he grieves
Ger worthless heaps of withered leaves.
