.B0ER GENERALS
LEAVE ENGLAND
Will Visit Kruger and Steyn in
Their Retirement.
MADE MUCH OF IN LONDON
REASON THE KINGS INVITA-
TON WAS DECLINED.

T ONDON. Aug 1S.-The Boer gener-
ais, Botha, Dewet and Delarey,
started for Brussels tonight. Cap
tain o'DonneIi, who served on Dewets
staff throughout the war, starts i'm
medfately for America to prepare the
way for the visit of the generals. He
says that altogether about 500 Ameri-
cans and 500 Irishmen were with the
Boer forces.
Late in the afternoon the Boer gen.
erals left their hotel and proceeded 10
the docks to embark on the steamer
BataYier, bound for Rotterdam In
spite of the secrecy of their move
ments large crowd awaited the gen
erals and c1eered the departing visit
ors.
Montague White, former consul
general in London of the ~Transvaal,
has issued d statement authorized by
The Boer generals, as follows:
The generals are proceeding to the
continent for the purpose of greeting
Mr.. Kruger and Mr.. Steyn and at
tending the funeral of General Lucas
Meyer. Their present intention is to
return to London at an early date for
the transaction of business. but they
have not decided on any fixed plan.
During their brief stay in London the
generals have been the recipients of
many invitations and kind messages
of welcome which they fully appreci-
ated
The report that the decision of the
generals not to visit the naval review
was due to the influence of Mr.. Fischer
is not true. Their real reason for de
Ginning the invitation was that they
did not consider their attendance quite
suitable for a ceremonious visit, and
the necessarily short notice conveyed
10 them did not give them the time
for necessary preparations. They were,
however, glad of the opportunity of
paying their respects TO the king on the
following day. after they had made the
necessary purchases, and they were
gratified at the kind manner in which
they were received by his majesty"

LARGE HEBREW POPULATION.
Over Half a Million Jews Reside in
New York

New York, Aug 1S.-According to
statistics based on the number of
Jewish burials recorded by the board
OF health and compiled by the Jewish
World, the Hebrew population of New
York City is estimated at 5S4,7 In
Manhattan alone every fourth man or
woman is a Jew or Jewess.
The Jewish buriaIs amounted, in 1901,
to 1897, and as the death rate in the
most congested Jewish district is a
little over fifteen per thousand, this
implies a population of 533. 1913 in the
middle of 1901. Since that time no less
than IS, 225 Jews have arrived at New
York and stayed here, while, by nat
ural increase of births over deaths an
other Il, 400 would be added up to Aug
of this year, making a grand total OF
584. 7SS.
The number Of Jewish marriages in
Manhattan alone in 1901 was 5,062,
which, at a very high marriage rate Of
ten per 1000, would imply a popula-
ton of SOC. 200 to which has TO be added
10000 Jews of Brooklyn and the in
crease by immigration and excess OF
births, as before.

ALFALFA OR 1UcERNE.
q Yield Surprising Any Other
Hay Crop.

Alfalfa Medicago Saliva is one OF
the oldest cultivated crops. 1t has
been cultivated for 25 centuries. Its
native home is supposed to be that OF
the primitive Aryan stock from which
all the European nations are de.
scended. MIR. Gerald Mccarthy, NJ. S.,
says that alfalfa is very long-lived
perennial plant of the pulse or
leguminous family. 1t roots very
and as consequence is practically
drought proof when once we'll estab-
lished. 1t requires 4 rather dry soil.
rich in lime. The plant is tender and
feeble when young and requires u
mellow surface free from weeds with
plenty of soluble plant food at hand.
On worn lands this crop usually fails
to catch unless the soil has been
given a good dose of stable manure
or bone meal just previous to sowing
the seed. Once started a sowing
lasts from 10 to 80 years. The dry
valley and mountain lands of the
Rocky mountains seem to be the
home of this plant in America. 1t
also succeeds we'll on the Pacific
slope and in the Mississippi valley.
1t does we'll on the lighter soils OF the
Atlantic coast and gulf states, but
requires great care to get it started.
1t is usually sown broadcast in early
fall using about 20 pounds Of seed
per acre. No nurse crop is desirable.
When we'll cared for the yield OF this
crop is enormous, exceeding any
other hay crop.
In New Jersey four cuttings per
year are obtained: in the gulf region
eight cuttings are the rule. The
yield is one and half to two tons of
air dry hay per cutting. giving total
yield for the year of 4 to l6 tons per
acre.
One ton of this hay contains the
following amounts of plant food:
Nitrogen .....:... - ibs.
Phosphoric acid. ....................1 TO- lbs.
PotaSn ........................ oSO ipS.
As with all other lcgumines the
nitrogen comes from the air. The
potash and phosphoric acid come
from the soil and to keep up the
yield an annual dressing of these
substances equivalent to that which
has been carried off in the hay must
be given. Taking the average yield
at six tons per acre we obtain:
Nitrogen, 262.s lbs. worth SCI s.
| Phosphoric acid, g. lbs. worth 2.47
| Potash, U1 g .....Worth S.W
| 80 40
Total fertilizing value. $42 .0G
| To replace the above amounts of
potash will require 4o3 pounds OF
muriate of potash. TO replace the
phosphoric acid requires 425 pounds
of superphosphate. But where the
growing season is long and the tenn
peraturc favorable the yield may be
! larger and the fertilizer must be in
creased proportionately. A good
normal fertilizer for alfalfa is as fol-
lows:
Muriate Of potash. 500 to 600 lbs.
SuDcrpho sphatc ..,........ 500 to 900 lbs.
Lime 500 to 900 lbs.

COVER FOR MILKING PAIL.

the conditions are simply disgusting,
while one can rarely find a stable
where thoroughly painstaking effort
is made to keep every particle of for
eign matter and every foul odor out of
the milk. Even under the very best
conditions as regards cleanliness it is
utterly impossible to keep all impuri-
ties out of the milk If the latter is
drawn from the COW into an open pail,
for hairs and some dust particles will
be loosened from the COW by the action
Of the hands in milking. However,
with pail like that shown in the cut
and two thicknesses of cotton cloth,
or, better still, layer of surgeons
absorbent cotton, laid between two
sheets of cheesecloth and caught to-
gether here and there with thread and
needle, almost absolute cleanliness
can be secured. A large sheet of such
q straner can be made at once, and
circles cut from it for each milking.
The cotton mentioned is absolutely
pure, and is of nature to check the
passage of any impurities. BY the use
of such a device the milk and cream
will not only be practically pure, if all
other precautions are taken to keep it
so, but it will keep much longer than
milk and cream secured under the or
binary conditions-a very decided adj
vantage, if one ships his cream away
or has milk or cream route, for there
is, perhaps, no more common COM
plant from customers CD \ milk route
than that the milk or cream does not
keep from one day to the next.-N. Y.

MILK STOOL AND PAIL.
The Combination Here Described 10
Held In High Ertecm by All Who
Have Used II.

We have tried several kinds Of stools
and have seen all styles in operation
in various parts OF the country, but
nothing suits us so we'll as the style
shown here, says Michigan farmer in
Hoard's Dairyman. We made the first
one when we commenced dairy!ng.
The cut shows how to make it. The
board A should be about % inches long
for tall man and about eight inches
wide. The two end pieces, i and e.,
can be cut and adjusted to suit each
mixer. We made the stool so as to
have the seat d about ten inches high.

KEEPING MILK PURE.
1t Can be Done Ii the Right Kind OF
Pail and Straininx Apparatus
II Used,

Poor butter is very often the result
of impurities that get into the milk at
milking time. Cloth strainers will
help matters materially, but first Of all
thoroughly rub the cows udders with
a piece of burlap before milking. The
best pail for milking with cloth strain
ers can be made by the tinsmith after
the pattern shown in the cut. Lay the
cloth tightly over the top of the pail,
then press the top piece down inside
the rim of the pail. The milk can
not spatter out. and must pass through
the cloth into the pail. Proba bly, not
one dairyman in a hundred is as par
ticular as he should be in the matter
of getting the milk from the cows in
the cleanliest possible manner. After
visiting many dairy farms and noting
the filthy manner in which the COWS
are cared for and MIXED, think my

When buying . Churn.

The following points are to be con-
sidered in buying churn, says NJ. H
Watts. in Kansas Farmer: ''The
most complete 'churning possible in a
proper space OF time--from one-third
to one hour, according to the condi-
ton of the cream and room tempera-
ture--easy filling, emptying, examin-
ing and cleaning. The material of
which the churn is made should be
Of some hard, close-grained wood,
made solid or firm and fitted with a
suitable arrangement for warping.
Each churn has its own working ca
pacity, but is generally limited to
about one-third its actual measure.
Instantaneous churning is not ad-
visable, for the reason of too great
4 loss of butter fat in the buttermilk
and an inferior quality of finished
butter"

TIMELY DAIRY NOTES.

Do not change the feed suddenly.
Salt should always be accessible.
Read current dairy literature and
keep posted on new ideas.
Have the herd examined at least
twice year by skilled veterinarian.
Observe and enforce the utmost
cleanliness about the cattle, their at
tendants, the stable, the dairy and all
utensils.
Clean the entire body of the cow
daily. II hair in the region of the
uddcr is not easily kept clean it
should be clipped.
Never allow the cows to be excited
by hard driving, abuse, loud talking
or unnecessary disturbance; do not
expose them to cold or storms.
Promptly remove from the herd
any animal suspected of being in bad
health, and reject her milk. Never
add an animal to the herd until GER
tain it is free from disease, especial
ly culosis.-Farmcrs' Review.
