Alfalfa i'll Tennessee.

Tennessee correspondent tells OF
neighbor who has some Of the poorest run
down land IN the neighborhood who SOW
ed piece of land in alfalfa He got only
a little patch here and there. The next
year he planted the land in corn and
plowed around the living patches If
alfalfa, leaving them to grow in the corn
field. The next season he sowed the land
IN alfalfa and now has fine stand four
years old. The proba bility seems to be
that the patches left in the first sowing
did get the land infected with the nj
crobes that live on the alfalfa roots, and
hence the success of the second sowing
When one gets q patch, however small,
where the nodules can be seen, on the
roots he viii have no further difficulty If
he uses the soil from that piece to scat
ter over q new sowing and thus infect the
soil Legumes often fail the first time
from the lack Of the microbes In Louioi-
ana friend wrote that the first time he
soWed crimson clover lie failed except IN
spots. The next fall he soWed the same
land and had q fine stand. The hairy
.vetch often falls at first from the same
cause but Is easily infected with soil from
an old garden where English peas have
been grown, IS they both have the same

Preparing Stawberry Plants
for Fall.

Now IS the time to do this. Get lot
Of 3lnch flower pots, and prepare rich
compost for them. Go into the straw
berry patch and find the young runners
that have made little white roots an
inch or so long. Take these to a con
venlent table and pot them il the 3-inch
pots. Now III an unused cold frame spread
bed of coal ashes and on these set the
pots closely together Water we'll and
shade with a screen of building Iaths nail
ed inch apart and then see that the
plants never suffer for water. You can
attend TO a large number in this way and
in the fall you viii have a lot of plants
that can be knocked out Of the pots and
set so as to get strong enough to make
a full crop the next spring. The books
Will tell you lot about growing pot plants
Of Strawberries by crawling about the
patch and buying pots and putting the
runners on them to root But all this Is
waste of time ana labor, and you can
have just as good potted plants by taking
up the young runners suggested and
potting them in a convenient place.
Growers in the trade who offer the potted
plants by the thousands do not crawl over
the ground and sink the pots in the sell.
They leave that advice for those who do
not know better.

Notes from a Carolina Garden,

Just at this time, when the sprln,
shrubberv has long ceased to bloom and
the Grape myrtles have not begun, We
nave two shrubs IN the South that are
verv beautiful. The double fioWered pome-
granates are now full OF then gorgeous
flowers like big scarlet roses, and one
variety has rich salmon colored hoWers
with the petals tipped with Whte. both
are very ornamental, both on the push
and IN vases. If trained to Single
stem they grow to tree-lIke dimensions,
but are Drettier treated as bushes ana
branched from the ground.
The other shrub Is the coral plant
Ervthrina Crista Cali. This IS a ten
der plant and the top does not survive
the frost cf winter. AS soon az the 1rost
has cl1t if the top is sawed off at the
ground and a mound OF sawdust pied
over the roots TO protect them IN VIII
ter. From these stumps the top Is III
nr3Ilv renewed and now forms a big puSh
six feet high and as many IN dlameler,
loaded with great raccmes OF crimson pea
shaped flowers.
The interest in the flower garden Is nov
LARGELY centered in the gladloius. Gron

way the horses clean it up is gratifying
We tried drilling the vetch seed mixed
with the wheat and found that the vetch
beng heavier drilled out more rapidly
and thus the sowing was not as uniform as
II should be. 1t viii be better 10 drill
the vetch first or SOW 1t broadcast and
then drill the wheat. We would SOW one
bushel of wheat and 80 pounds of vetch
per acre. If vetch has not been grown
before 1T will be we'll to get some soil
from an old garden, where English peas
have been grown and scatter about 100

be sown IN September or October.

Hay Tedders.

Ours Il an immense country. We have
often heard this, and this season are more
than ever convinced of Its immensity and
variety. While the East has been strug
Cling with drought the Central West has
been deluSed and flooded with rain and the
hints to the drought sufferers are wasted
on those who have been trying to make
hay with no sunshine and constant rains
The making Of hay in catching weather
requires not only quick work, but the best
of implements. In such a season as our
Western friends have been having the
tedder proves of immense value to the hay
maker, In fact, anywhere the tcdder viii
ray It's way in the securing OF the hay
crop. and whoever uses it one season viii
thereafter be sure TO keep one. 1t may
not have been needed in the droughtv
East this spring. but there are times
when even there the tedder viii enable Il
farmer to save a crop of hay from ram.

THE FARMERS
CONVENTION.
Program of the Great Meeting to be
Held at the A and M. Col
lege, July 81 10 %.

Prf G. NJ Burkett. OF the \. and N,
College announces that the OBJ
iect of the Farmers Convention which i

intended to be meeting of farmers where
by they may all come together ana discuss

mers on practical subjects, they VIII be

Gent organization to be formed, and
once every year meet at the college during
the summer time, for the discussion OF
practical subjects bearing upon agrlcul
ture.
There Is nothing new in the idea OF such
a convention, since great many States

THE PROPOSED SPEEDWAY.
First Meeting of Directors of Drivers
and Riders Association.

Road drivers and riders of the District of
Columbia are enthusiastic over the pros
poets for better roadways and a suitable
driveway within the limits of the city,
where drivers may speed their horses. The
movement has been taken up and supported
by many of the prominent road drivers and
riders in the District with the result Of a
qualified membership of nearly 100 and a
substantial bank account One of the most
cheering incidents in connection with the
work is the recommendation embodied in the
annual report of Colonel Thomas w. Sy
mons, commissioner of public buildings and
grounds, for an extension of the Potomac
that they will include a suitable stretch Of
speedway on the river front extending from
a point opposite the Washington monument
in the direction of the national observatory
In this connection it is the purpose of the
commissioner to connect the Potomac park
drivewayS with those of Rock Creek park
so that riders and pleasure drivers may
reach Rock creek without having to ira
verse miles of aSphaltum roadWayS which
are so deadly to delicate horsefesh. To-
morrow night the first monthly meeting of
the board of directors of the Road Drivers
and Riders Association will be held at asso-
citation headquarters, Metropolitan Hotel
The official badges of the association will
be distributed to all members who may have
qualified. These badges are tastefully de-
signed, bearing a gold horse head on a back
ground of hunters red enamel, the official
color of the riders of the District of Col
umbia.

CHURCH ANNIVERSARIES.
Two Events Celebrated by Temple Bap-
fist Congregation.

The Temple Baptist Church, corner Of
10th and N streets northwest, celebrated
yesterday its sixty-first anniversary as an
organization and the first anniversary of
Its occupancy of the present building. The
congregation was first known in 1912 as
the Third Baptist Church. later as the L
Street Baptist Church and now 1t is the
Temple Baptist Church. having assumed
the last name when it moved into the new
ediice year ago.
The pastor. Rev DIR. j. ]. Muir preached
from the text: This is a great mystery
but l speak concerning Christ and the
church.. Epistle to the Ephesians il 81.
In his Introduction he said that the church
was the only institution in the world a'Se
to make the boast that it owed its origin TO
God and that whatever might be the d.
fectS of any other congrega ton his people
should not lose sight of it's divine origin
and of the fact that it is under the pro-
lection of the Almighty. He mentioned the
blessings that had come to thi4 particular
church during its long history. and especial
raised in the past two years the sum OF
$4,000 on the new building.
In closing he insisted on earnest untir-
ing work TOR the Master and His church.
explaining that as the fathers of the church
had ACCOMPLISHED SO much it was the duty
or the present congregation to do all that
1t could for the further advancement of the
church.
