Saving Alfalfa.

The Kansas experiment station rec
ommends sowing twenty pounds of al
falfa seed per acre With every CON
dition favorable experienced alfalfa
growers sometimes succeed in getting Al
good stand by using ten 10 fifteen
pounds of seed per acre, but this small
quantity is not generally sufficient. 1t
pays to use enough seed TO secure a
good stand. as alfalfa, unlike clover
never thickens and the number Of
plants per acre tends to continually
decrease.
If the soil and the air are moist, the
most even stand Is secured by sowing
the seed broadcast. Cover lightly with
harrow and then roll, unless there is
danger from blowing. If the weather
is dry or there is much wind, broadcast
seeding is Il failure The seed gcrmi-
mates close To the surface of the
ground, and the wind dries out the soil
and kills the young plants almost as
fast as they start
Generally the best way to SOW alfalfa
Is with press drill Mix the seed with
equal parts by measure OF coarse corn
chop, bran or fine sawdust; drill and
cross drill, sowing half the seed each
way. If either Il hoe or disk drill is
used. care must be taken not TO get the
seed too deep. About twelve times the
diameter OF the seed Is the proper
depth IL this places the seed in moist
soil.

Growing Onion scts.

The manner Of producing onions for
sets is the following: The soil should
be of an inferior quality, such as has
been run out by constant cropping
but should be of such texture as to
permit of good cultivation-tha Is, II
should be easy to work. \ poor sandy
loan would be preferable. The impor-
tant thing Is to keep the sets from be
coming too large, and in order to over
come this il is advisable to SOW fifty
to sixty pounds of seed to the acre.
The seed may be sown as late rs the
last week In May or the first week in
June BY sowing the seed SO thick
causes the seedlings to be so crowded
that ii prevents their making very
large growth. In sowing the seed rath-
er wide drill should be made SO that
the seed may be spread out sufficiently.
If the sets should grow too large, these
should be picked out and sold for pic
King purposes.
To prevent the sets from becoming
too large they may be pulled up and
harvested when large enough. AS q
rule harvesting may be done the early
part of August, thus giving ample time
for drying off well before the fall rains
set in, taking care to house them when
perfectly dry. The sets may be run
through n sieve or screen with about
three-quarter inch mesh. Use only such
as will pass through this screen for
sets.-George Coote, Oregon.

however. The three marines had dis

the spare spars in an unconscious con-

war. While the fury of the squall
was spent after half an hour, it was
followed by a breeze which ran the

Pnntomimc Performance

Most pantoIninc characters were
originally borrowed from the Italians.
The first real English pantomime was
produced at a theater in Lincoln's Inn
Fields In 1920. 1t was called ''Harle
quin Executed" and its subtitle was
"A New Italian Comic Scene Between
n Scaramouche, Harlequin, Coun-
try Farmer, His Wife and Others"
The performance was very successful.
About the middle Of the eighteenth
century the character of pantomime
performances was completely altered,
chiefly because Of the genius Of the
famous Grimaldi, who made the clown
the first figure in the pantomime. Gri-
maldi first appeared at Sadler's Wells
theater, where he played the part of
monkey. He was actively engaged on
the stage for forty-nine years, and at
the close Of his career he took a bene-
fit at Drury Lane theater, which real
iZed nearly fG00. He also received 200
from the Drury Lane fund. This was
in June 1928 He died In 1887 and was
buried in the churchyard Of st James
chapel, Pentonville Hill.

EnrIy PreIudIce Against Potatoes.

1t was never mentioned in the Bible.
In the Lothians 1t came in about
1140, the year of the famine. from Ire
land. but was confined to gardens till
about 1754. when it was planted in
fields about Aberlady. BY the close of
the century it was general article of
diet
Ramsay says that George Henderson
went about 1850 for bag of potatoes
TO Kilsyth, where the Irish method OF
field culture had lately been tried, and
introduced the potato into Mentieth,
where n few had been known, but only
In kale yards. The old folks, however,
did not take kindly to the new food.
Old George Bachop, one Of the Ochter-
tyre tenants, when told by his wife
that she had potatoes for supper said
"Tatticsl Tatties! | never supped on
them a my days and Wilma the nicht
