pondent of the above paper is
food for thought This being
one of the best alfalfa producing
regions in the west, it would seem
that with little push several al
falfa meal plants could be estab-
lished in the Arkansas valley:
The alfalfa meal Company OF
Omaha, Nebraska, will increase
its plant this year from a capacity
of ten tons per day and plant of
$4,000 to capacity of 100 tons
per day and plant investment of
$l5O,000, this extension to be
swelled next year to a daily grind
ing of $50 tons of meal and a
machinery cost of $250,000.
Two of the chief supply sources
of this mammoth meal plant are
found in Lincoln county, Nebras-
ka. and in Kearney. Nebraska, vi.
cinity, Lincoln county, with North
Platte as the central shipping
point, furnishing the product of
tens of thousands of alfalfa acres,
while one alfalfa grower alone in
the Kearney district can ship
10000 tons annually to the Omaha
meal mill.
Alfalfa meal grinding is to
speedily become one of the great
manufacturing industre, of the
American central west, The Ster-
ling, Colo, chamber of commerce
is now negotiating with eastern
capitalists for the building at that
point of meal mills to cost at least
$4,000 with guaranteed annual
product 10000 Logan county alfal-
fs acres.
In the manufacture of alfalfa

grows in the field, is ground up,

A KOREAN CINDERELLA.
The Quaint story of Peach Blossom,
the Family Drudge.

The Quaint story of Peach Blossom,
the Family Drudge.
In Korea the people tell Cinderella
story that is much more ancient than
that familiar to western people. The
key of the latter story is the slipper,
but not so theirs. Peach Blossom, the
Korean Cinderella's name, was the
family drudge. One day as the moth.
er was starting off with the favorite
daughter to a picnic she said to Peach
Blossom, You must not leave until
you have hulled a bagful of rice and
filled the broken crock with water
While sitting there bemoaning her hard
lot she heard a twittering and a flut-
tering of wings. Looking up, she saw
a flock of sparrows pecking the bulls
off the rice. Before recovering from
her surprise a little imp jumped out
of the fireplace and so skillfully re-
paired the crock that but a few min
utes of work was required to fill it
with water. Then she went to the pic
mic and had royal time.
On another occasion the mother said,
"Yeu must stay until you have pulled
up all the weeds in the field" This
time a COW came out of the forest and
ate up the woods in ten mouthfuls.
Peach Blossom followed the COW into
the woods and was led to where there
was an abundance of ripe, luscious
fruit. Gathering large quantity, she
went to the fete and was the most vel
come guest. Her jealous sister asked
about it and. on being told. determined
she would get some of this fruit for
herself
When the next gala day came the
sister stayed at home and let Peach
Blossom go. The COW came out of the
woods as before, and the sister follow
ed it through tangled brier and thorn
bushes, with the result that her face
was much scratched and her skin deep
beauty all gone.-Exchange

THE DEATH CUP.
This Deadly Fungus Resembles sew
eral Edible Mushrooms.

This Deadly Fungus Resembles sew
era1 Edible Mushrooms.
Perhaps the most deadly of the poi
sonous fungi of our woods and fields
is the fairly well known death cup
(Amanita phalloides). particularly dan
gerous from its resemblance to several
of the edible mushrooms. Though gath
ering fungi for the table should be
undertaken by none save those thor
oughly acquainted with the different
species, as it is altogether too easy for
the ignorant enthusiast to make an err
ror which may prove fatal to his
friends.
The death cup referred to has a
round cap. white, yellowish or green
ish in color. and the stem has swollen
base. surrounded by an envelope. or
veil, of a white filmy substance, which
parts as the stalk extends upward.
This stalk is pithy when young. but
hollow at maturity, and the gills of the
cap, which in the meadow mushrooms
are pink or brown, are white in the
deadly variety, as are also the spores,
which can be plainly seen if the cap
is laid, gills downward, on a piece of
colored paper for a few hours. The
swollen, or dubious, base is a distin-
gushing characteristic. and no fungus
of that appearance should be gathered
for cooking. One of the liabilities is
that these caps may be broken off
without due observance of its base,
which is often covered with earth or
dead grasses, hence not distinguished
from some of the lepiotas. which. how
ever, are never surrounded with the
f1lmy veil Of the death cup.
The poisonous property of this fungus
is largely the same as that found in the
venom of rattlesnake and also in
cholera and diphtheria. and so far sci
ence is unable to produce any satisfac-
tory antidote, atropine, the stomach
pump and oil purgatives being about
the only resources.-Washin Post.
