How to Cure Alfalfa.

The leaves of alfalfa contain nearly twelve times as much pro- tein as the stem, a ton of alfalfa containing 2,800 pounds of bran. Every effort, then, should be made to cure the alfalfa ill such a way as to save all the leaves
 possible. The method of curing
 will vary with the conditions of
 the crop, ground and weather.
 When alfalfa has made a slow growth, and at the time of cut ting the ground and the weather are dry, there is no difficulty in curing. Often under these con- ditions it is safe to rake within few hours after moving, and stack a few hours after the alfal ia has been put in the winrows. When alfalfa has made a rapid growth and is rank and succu- lent and the weather and ground are damp, the problem of curing is a difficult one. It is easy to dry the leaves, but the stems will contain much moisture after the leaves are too dry. Alfalfa hay should become so dry before stacking that when handful of stems are twisted together no water can be squeezed out. The most practical way to accomplish this, and at the same time save the leaves, is the plan to adopt, and this will vary with different seasons and places.
 There is usually no difficulty in curing any but the first crop. When the conditions for curing the first crop are unfavorable we have usually found the most practicable methods to be to cut the alfalfa early in the morning, after the dew is off, allow it to barely wilt in the swath, then take and before night put in mar row, tall cocks. After the dew is off next morning and the sur face of the ground has become dry, we open these cocks care fully, so as not to shatter off the leaves. If the weather is favor able the hay may be stacked in the afternoon; if not, we recock carefully and repeat treatment until the hay is properly cured.
 Some alfalfa growers, in stack ing the first cutting of alfalfa, put alfalfa and dry straw or prai rie hay in alternate layers; a satisfactory way if the dry ma terial is available. Others use ten to fifteen pounds of salt or air -slaked lime to each ton of hay, sprinkling the salt or lime so as to cover as much of each load as possible. Experim ents made at this station indicate that considerably less gains are made by cattle when salt is mixed with the feed. A trial of lime on al falfa, made at this station, showed little effect.

THE TERRITORIAL PRISON.

The legislature IS III SeSSIol. The governor in his message submits to that body the prob lem providing the convicts of the territorial prison with some kind of employment winch may in a measure make the institution partly self-sustaining. The gov ernor refers to the feasibility of raising hemp on the overflow lands of the prison farm as one source of employment, and the working of convicts on the pub lie roads, either of which en- ployment, he considers, will not conflict with free labor. So far so good; but there are means or resources in which this convict labor can be utilized and to such an extent that the prison can be made not only in part but wholly self-sustaining. The overflow lands of the prison farm are most valuable. They can be utilized to produce much. After the annual overflow of the Colorado. which comes in mid d-summer, the land can be made to produce pro- life quantities of garden truck, far in excess of the consumption of the prison. These lands can be made to produce for several months in large quantities to supply not only the Yuma but other Arizona markets. Tucson could utilize much of this garden product.
 Then this overflow land can be made to produce and does produce rich crops of willow and cottonwood fuel, sufficient that, with the garden products, would yield returns of five thousand dollars annually by rotating the crops to be harvested. This is no guess estimate, but has been established by actual observa- ton. This wood finds a ready sale in Los Angeles.
 Then this overflow land is most excellent for raising basket will low and bamboo, from which fur niture can be manufactured. The willow and bamboo, once plant ed, becomes a perpetual re- beating crop. There is a large demand for willow and bamboo furniture and ware in this hot cline. None of these industries will come in competi- tion with any free labor of the territory There are many oth- CT kinds of use this ground of the prison farm can be put to which would give profitable en- ployment to the inmates of the prison.
 The ground is admirably adapt ed to the production of the finest quality of broomcorn. The mak ing of brooms is an industry any convict can soon learn. Why not supply the Arizona market with brooms from the territorial prison? The farm can be leveed by prison labor. Cottonwood, willow and bamboo growth can be utilized to make strong and enduring dykes to withstand the uOOQ. l llS COll ICUS COuIO Uc employed in this work to better advantage than to be herded in idleness.
 These are but a few of the many means by and through which the territorial prison may be made self sustaining. An other resource is that of leasing the convicts, but in the general mutilation of the Arizona code by it's late compilers the law seemed to be lost or eliminated, for what purpose it is difficult to discover.
 Here is fruitful subject for the legislature to consider and adopt some practical measures to put into active force. Tucson Star.

BROOKINGS COUNTY CORN
Those Who Planted Early Seed
Report Favorable

Inquiry among farmers from various
portions OF the county regarding the
corn crop, bears evidence that those
who planted early seed will have an
excellent crop of good sound corn.
In many instances the farmers were
unable to secure early seed and were
obliged TO plant late seed or none at
all. In the latter case, while the corn
has made mammoth growth, there
is very little chance for it to mature,
and in most cases the crop will be cut
for fodder, though some Of this corn
will mature in very short time. 1t is
hoped that next year early seed can be
purchased as the land in this county
is every year getting in more favorable
condition for corn growing.

Kerr was on the Pacific coast when

his death reached Broukings. The
telegram was forwarded from here but
missed him, as about that time he
was on his return across the continent,
the consequence being that he arrived
home Friday morning and received
the news Of his fathers demise at
5'clOck the same evening thus making
it impossible to reach New Richmond
from here in time TO attend the funer-
al. The professor therefore decided
not to go TO Indiana at this time.
