Third-The supply OF money in the
United States was never so large as
today, and never so good. Our stock
of good money is 1900 millions of dol
lars, double that of England. In five
years it has increased nearly 400 mil
lions with us, or as much as the gain
in all Europe with five times our pop
ulation. The per capita stock of good
money is in the United Sta ,es SIG,
France $24, Germany $13, other Eu-
rope. SO to &c. The United States
alone is producing each year over $780,
100000 in gold, or more than one-quar-
ter the worlds production, and most OF
it is coined into money. The increase
of neariy 600 millions in the countrys
stock of money of all kinds during the
past five years-from 1900 to 240O mil
lions-was two-thirds in the form OF
gold Of all the money in existence
in the United States, the yellow metal
now constitutes over AZ per cent,
against a mere fraction when specie
payments were resumed in 1879. In
the past five years, money in circula-
ton has jumped from $24 to nearly
$v0 per capita, and the part OF gold in
it from 1915 to $3.50. On top OF all
his, put the fact that the gold in the
United States treasury is greater than
the deposit held by any other nation.
These amazing facts follow period
of high prices and of still higher
wages. Some settling down will do
good, all along the hnue. Meanwhile,
the area of land remains fixed-,here
are no more free farms. Advancing
land values and prosperity for the
farmer are evidently assured for the
future.

USING BISULPHIDE OF CARBON.

During the last month, we have re-
ceived a number of inquiries from our
readers asking about the use of bisul-
phide of carbon in Kidding store rooms,
where grain is kept of vermin, how it
should be used, and what it is.
Bisulphide of carbon is a cOlorleSS
liquid which forms a volatile gas
which is highly inflammable. The
fumes of this gas are poison to animal
life and in this lies the value of the
liquid in exterminating vermin. The
wheat bin, the barn, and the farm
house itself, can be rid of insects and
vermin by the proper use of this gas.
The vapor that comes from the liquid
is heavy and falls instead of rising as
in the case of many other gases. For
this reason, bisulphide of carbon
should be applied above the paris to
be treated in order that the entire
space may be reached.
Where a room or compartment is to
be treated, all cracks should be closed,
windows shut, and as near an alright
condition obtained as possible. One
pint or one pound of the liquid will
treat one thousand cubic feet of space.
quantity of the liquid should be in
creased about one-third. No injury is
done to grain by using this liquid nor
is there any danger in feeding the
grain after it has been treated.
Bisulphide of carbon is very explO-
sive and all light and heat should be
kept away from the rooms of build
ings when the liquid is being used.
We have employed this liquid with
great success in destroying weevils
that were attacking grain in the bins
and have found that the best method
to pursue is to place the bisulphide of
carbon in an open vessel above the
grain to be treated. We usually do
this at night and the next morning air
out the room by opening windows and
doors.
The United States Department of
Agriculture recently published bulle-
tin on the subject which contains full
directions for killing weevils, rats, in
secs. gophers, ETC., with this liquid.

ALFALFA AS A FEEDING STUFF
FOR HORSES.

Although alfalfa is by no means a
new crop in this country, neverthe-
less it is true that during the last few
years it has come in for large share
of attention. Not only is this true in
irrigated regions and regions where
the rainfall is too light for cereal crops,
but it is now being grown to a con-
principal value when grown in con-
nection with corn is due to the fact
that it contains a large amount OF
flesh-forming constituents, and cOnse-
quently tends to balance the ration
1t has been proven to be most eX-
cel.ent food for hogs, not only as
pasture, but also when the hay is
ground up or cut fine. For dairy COWS
and fattening animals it has few equals
among the various forms of roughage,
because really it is both grain and
roughage combined.
Some of the experiment stations
have demonstrated that alfalfa is not
only of value as hog food, and also
as a food for cattle, but have shown
that this crop is exceedingly we'll
adapted to the needs of the work
horse. At the Utah station four work
horses were fed a ration consisting OF
twelve pounds of bran and shorts and
twenty-five pounds of hay, two being
given alfalfa hay and two timothy.
During the ninety-five days OF the first
test the horses fed timothy lost 124
pounds while those fed alfalfa lost
but four pounds. The rations were
then reversed for fifty-six days, re-
sulting in the alfalfa fed horses gain
ing seventy-five pounds and those fed
timothy losing sixty pounds. In a sec
ond test lasting ninety-one days the
two horses fed alfalfa gained fifty-five
pounds, while those fed timothy lost
forty-one pounds. Following this peri
cd the rations were reversed and the
grain increased from twelve to fiji
teen pounds per day. After the change
the alfalfa fed horses made a gain

of sixty-five pounds during sixty-eight
days, while those fed on timothy lost
100 pounds.
In the case of driving horses when
twelve pounds of grain were fed daily
the animal fed S.3 pounds of timothy
lost fifty pounds, while the one fed 16
pounds of alfalfa hay daily gained
twelve pounds. Concerning the above
experiments the author of the bulletin
in which these are set forth, says:
"The results of the tests, under vary
ing conditions of work, are so uniform
that the value of alfalfa when fed
to horses may be regarded as quite
definitely established. 1t does not seem
difficult matter to maintain the
weights of horses on alfalfa when
given the same amount as was given
to the timothy-fed horses. No Ill ef-
fects on the general health of the
horses were noted, and in appearance
the alfalfafed horses certainly con-
trasted favorably with those which re-
ceived timothy. 1t is folly to CAIN
that a horse will not eat more than is
necessary if allowed the liberty OF the
stack and grain bin. The argument is
sometimes made that horse, under
natural conditions, on pasture, never
eats more than is necessary, and that
under these conditions he is never
subject to digestive disorders. While
this is undoubtedly true, it must be
kept in mind that as soon as we sta
BILE the horse and require work or
him we have taken him away from
his natural condition and placed him
under unnatural environment"
From the above it would seem that
alfalfa is admirably adapted to the
needs of the work horse, and it would
appear that if such results could be
obtained by the average farmer IL
would certainly pay to experiment a
little in the growing Of this crop. VI
course, much depends upon the man
ner in which alfalfa is cured. We
know from practical experience that
unless one can save the leaves in
the curing it is of little value.
