Growing Alfalfa.

William r. Hackett, one of Quinton
townships prominent agriculturists, has
a fine field of aIfalfa-the only field of
alfalfa ever grown in Salem county The
field contains two acres and the stalks are
as thick as the hair on dogs back. Mr..
Hackett brought stalk to this Office that
measured forty-three inches in length.
This is Mr.. Hackett's second attempt at
growing alfalfa, his first being three years
ago He relied then entirely upon what
he had read in farm journals and periodi-
calls concerning its raising in the Western
States. The conditions in Salem county
are far different from those in the Western
States, and Mr.. Hackett's first attempt at
growing alfalfa was failure. When last
October came Mr.. Hackett, with the little
experience he had already cleaned in the
matter, decided to plant the seed and grow
the crop according to his own Judgment.
Now he has as fine field of alfalfa as we
read about in the western farm journals.
Mr.. Hackett intends to harvest his crop the
first of next week and expects to get several
tons from the field. Alfalfa, when fed to
cattle or horses, is considered several times
more nourishing than the best clover and
timothy hay. [Salem Sunbeam.

Raclng IN New Jersey.

New Jersey racing will probably be re-
vived shortly says a New York despatch
dated the 23d inst. Preliminary steps in
the matter have already been taken by
David Holland, president of the Queens
County Jockey Club whose track is sit
uated at Adueduct, 1. L, and by Louis
Kuhnly, the political dictator Of Atlantic
City.
Holland and Kuhnly haye purchased
many acres Of land adjoining the inlet-in
Atlantic City and will lay out race track
on. the lines of Morris Park. Title to the
property was recently acquired by Holland
and Kuhnly, who have the backing of sew
eral capitalists and Of one of the biggest
corporations in the State Of New Jersey.
Assurances of fa',osa;e leg slation in the
matter of their enterprise, it is said, have
been obtained by Holland and Kuhnly from
the political powers of Trenton, and work
on the Atlantic City race track will begin
early next Spring. Two leading attorneys
are now drafting bills to be presented to
the next New Jersey Legislature legalizing
horse racing in the State The bill pro-
vides for the encouragement Of contests Of
speed between throughbreds of the highest
class; the prohibition of races run on a
track less than one mile in circumference,
and tax on all racing association funds
accruing from that sort to be paid into the
State treasury. A certain percentage Of
the tax will go to the promotion Of county
fairs. Under the provisions of the pro-
posed bill, no Winter racing will be per
mitted. Legalized race meetings will be
allowed to be held between April Is and
November 1.
1t is the intention Of Holland and those
interested with him in the jersey venture
to lay out an up-to-date racing plant of the
highest kind and as nearly on the lines Of
Morris Park as it is possible. There will
be both circular and straightaway courses.
The circular course will be one mile and a
quarter.

Country Club received its Ahard knocks
on Decoration Day. Hardly had the ella
tion, occasioned by Saturdays victory
passed off, ere sadness was felt by both
player and rooter. Crusaders, of Phila.,
are responsible for this feeling Of depres-
sion, and their work at the bat was some-
thing to feel proud Of Woodbury. was not
anywheres backward with the bat either
but by some hard drives at critical parts Of
the game the visitors won out. The Phila.
team secured lead of five runs and try
hard as they could Country Club could
not overcome this in the remaining four
innings. Some assert that with two more
innings Country Club would have won the
game as their playing in the latter part of
the contest was fast and erorless, and the
distance between the score was rapidly
diminishing. Edwards made his appear
ance at second, and played in such style
as to receive the ''glad hand" from the
onloolzers; in fact all the players played
an exceptionally good game, but the cold
fact remains Crusaders. 10; Country Club,

Where Drunks Come From.

The liquor seller has long been held up
to scorn, as being the chief agent Of King
Alcohol in destroying people, but it is a
question whether the makers and purveyors
of some famous patent medicines are not
doing vastly more harm to the people than
are even the keepers of the lowest liquor
dives. Police authorities in nearly every
city can furnish testimony to prove that
some of the most vicious drunks, men who
are refused entertainment at drinking estab-
lishments, acquire the means to satisfy
their thirst through the agency Of Jamaica
ginger and patent medicines. recent
Sunday disturbance in this city was caused
by two men who became intoxicated by the
aid of patent medicine. Some of these
nostrums contain percentages Of alcohol that
would be considered deadly in beer or the
harder liquors. Beer contains from two to
fivs per cent. Of alcohol; these medicines,
some of them the most widely-advertised
and apparently the most popular with the
ailing as curealls, are beginning to take no
tiee Of this state Of affairs and are making
rigid objections to insuring persons addicted
to the use Of these patent medicines.

THE GAME LAWS.

In the Salem County courts last week
Judge Sinnickson made ruling on one
feature of the game laws that seem to us
just, even though severe draught on the
imagination. We quote from the Sunbeam:
Although the dog had rabbit IN its
mouth and was seen crossing the road and
running in wheat field during the close
season for this game, Judge Clement H. Sin
nickson held on Monday, that the owner of
the animal was not liable to the fine as set
forth by the law which reads: 1T shall
be unlawful for any owner, lessee or custod-
ian or any dog to permit such dog to run at
large in woods or fields inhabited by rabbits
or game birds except when said dog is in
the custody or charge of its owner, lessee
or custodian, during the close season herein
provided (Nov. 10 to Dec. 81 for hare,
commonly known as rabbit, under penalty
of twenty dollars for each offense. Sec. "a,
laws 1907
This was suit brought by the State of
New Jersey, E. R. Davis, Fish and Game
Warden, against Joseph Netter, charging
the latter with allowing his dog to run at
large Netter resides in Quinton township
near Andersons saw mill, and is the owner
of three dogs, one brindle bird dog, and
the one that was seen with a rabbit in its
mouth On June 3rd last. Nathan Roberts,
one of the witnesses for the appellee, testi-
fed that he saw the dog run across the road
about half mile from Netter's house.
The dog crossed about six feet in front of
him and had young rabbit in its mouth.
1t then run into wheat field. Theodore
Roberts corroborated the testimony of this
witness and further stated that he saw the
dog in the morning tied to chicken coop
at Netter's home.
This completed the testimony of the APP
pellee and at this point Judge Sinnick son
said that he could not see where the State
had made case 1t had not evel shown
that the owner of the dog had allowed it to
run at large nor had it shown chat the rab-
bit was caught in field inhabited by rab-
bits. The law specifically states woods
and fields. For aught we know, " said
Judge Sinnickson, the rabbit may have
been caught in the public road, in an or
chard or about the private residence Of The
defendant" Continuing the Judge said
that the law might work gross injustice
to many; it may infringe upon the rights
Of the farmers when they send their dogs
to the fields to drive up the COWS. He
granted non suit JF. Sinnickson, Esq,
represented the plaintiff and J. W. Acton,
Esq, the defendant.
Judge Sinnickson's decision and hold
ings most plainly set forth the import Of
this law and it is doubtful if so many con-
victions will be made in our justice courts
hereafter It was formerly the case that
whenever a dog was found on the highway
or in the fields during the close season for
rabbits the owner was liable tc be brought
into the justice court and fined.

II the object was to benefit the individual
pupil, he said, education at public expense
could not be defended, but by the same
authority that the State says to her citizens

you for military duty, it says to the par
ent, we want your children between the
ages of 5 and 18 years, to prepare them for
citizenship The broader and more
thorough we make our instruction, then,
the better we fulfill the objects Of the State,
and the better prepared will be the genera
tion now pupils of our public schools to
grapel with the problems Of American
citizenship in their generation.
After talk by County Superintendent
Eldridge on school buildings and teachers
certificates, the meeting adjourned.
