sheep in Northern
wisconsin.

IF any are in doubt as to Northern
Wisconsin being a natural and highly
favored sheep country they should visit
the country and inspect some of the
focks that are now we'll established
there. During a recent trip into Tay-
lor aud Price counties | attended the
Price county Fair at Phillips and was
greatly pleased with the fine showing
of sheep of different breeds. A day or
two later saw several hundred sheep
mostly Merinos. running in the woods
some seven o. eight miles southeast OF
Phillips and was surprised with their
fine appearance and generally good
condition. These sheep were ranging
in wild stumps and woodland evidently
without any special care. In this large
bunch were several fine specimens OF
Lincolns. Shropshires, Cheviots and
other mutton breeds, showing the per-
feet adoption of the country to the dlt-
ferent breeds of sheep. At the North
ern district fair at Chippewa Falls |
saw some very fine exhibits of Shrop-
shires and other breeds and partlcu-

History Of Alfalfa.

Alfalfa is unquestionably the king of
forage plants. This is at least true in
California, and from the way it is gain
ing favor in the East, it is being looked
up to there. 1t is now grown to some
extent at least, in nearly every state in
the Union yet our grandfathers knew
nothing about it. In limited way it
has been cultivated since the begin
ming of the Christian era. 1t undoubt-
edly originated from Western Asia, in
Afghanistan and Beloochistan. Dur
ing the fifth century it was introduced
into Greece, and from there to Italy
ard Spain, where it is still grown.
The early Spanish explorer carried it
to Mexico, and from there it went to
Chill, where conditions were so favor
able to its growth that it gained great
favor From Chill fit found its way to
California, in 1854, and for time was
known as Chill clover. 1t is reported
that some of the seed found its way
into the state of New York as early as
1850, but as it gave no especial prom
inence as farm crop it was soon lost
sight Of.
Even in California it's merits were
not discovered until nearly twenty
years after it found its way here. One
of the first to discover its agricultur al
value for California conditions was a
rancher by the name of Thomas Brown
who still lives at Bakersfield. He had
been told of wonderful forage crop by
Chilian whom he employed, as it
grew in his home country His inter-
est being aroused by the tales of the
CHILEAN, Mr. Brown determined to give
it trial, and sent to San Francisco in
search of some of the seed. Fortu-
nately, he was able to find thirty-fve
pounds, which he purchased by paying
800 for it. This seed was planted in a
place where it made marvellous
growth that it attracted a general in
terest, and ever since, the alfalfa &C
reage is growing throughout the entire
country. 1t was not long until it
showed what it could do in the warm
valleys of California if furnished with
water and it is undoubtedly true that
this crop was the first to attract irriga-
tion as an element in farming in the
semi-arid parts of the country. From
California it rapidly spread to Arizona,
New Mexico, Utah, Colorado, and later
to Kansas and Nebraska, where it is
rivaling corn for the first place as an
economical stock food. Farmers of the
Eastean states, as far north as New
York, have taken to it, and from re-
ports it is evidently gaining in favor
thro5sn cot the country, THAT is liable
to not only make it the king Of forage
crops, but the king Of farm crops. San

Gates Would W axe

John W. Gates since his return from
Europe talks enthusiastically of the
manufacture of briquettes in this coun-
try and shows by his interview that he
investigated the subject of artificial
feul while across the pond. He does
not mention the manufacture OF peat
into briquettes, bat speaks OF the utll-
cation of coal dust and other combust-
ible material which is not in its natural
state adaptable to handling. 1t Gates
turns his attention to the manufacture
of substitute for coal in this country
he will of course do it on tremendous
scale and no one objects to his trying.
II he thinks of manufacturing peat
some one should direct him to North
eru w isconsin for his material. 1t IS
we'll known fact that in some countries
of Europe that feul is so scarce it is
necessary to burn all obtainable refuse.
