GREAT CROP
OF ALFALFA
Sixty-FOur Million Tons Harvested
in theUnited States Ono OF Col
OrdO'S Chief Products
SOME STARTING FACTS.

Uncle Sam is the greatest hay
maker in the world. and this year it
Is estimated that he has harvested
G4.5OO. 900 tons, a crop worth over a
billion dollars. The average city
man who thinks of the term crops
vaguely as referring TO wheat corn
will doubtless be astonished at these
figures on something that he usually
considers, If he considers il at ALL
AS a mere breakfast food for animals.
And though all hay looks alike to the
unjnitiated. there are many different
kinds of grasses which are grouped
under that generic term. The prln-
cipaI ones. of course are timothy and
clover in the east and alfalfa in the
west.
Hay is. moreover, the most demo
cratic of all of our crop productions
Every farmer had a hand in swell
Ing the vast total Of the crop There
are no vast areas OF land devoted ex-
clusively to hay-raising such as the
monster wheat fields Of Nebraska
Kansas and SOME of the other STATES
Instead every farmer has his own
small field, where he grows usually
very little more than will carry his
own stock through the winter. How
ever. when all of these small helds
are added together. the result Is i'm
.presslve. The average area of land
used for the production of hay dur
ing the years from 1900 to 1904 was
3e.512.265 acres. Had the nations

chusetts with half OF Connecticut
thrown in. The average yield from

the length Of time il will continue

is n matter of conjecture. There are
fields that are in good condition after
more than 20 years of constant crop

after very much longer periods. 1t
requires three. and under unfavorable
conditions even four years for alfal-
ia to reach its prime, and after seven
to ten years the decline may general
ly, yet by no means always, be eN-
pected, though If properly cared for
there is no good reason why it should
be so.
Alfalfa's chief attraction to farmer
| is that it can be fed to dairy cows,
to the exclusion of all other foods,
and they will do very well, as well
indeed as if fed on bran and other
grains. This substitution of alfal-
ia for a grain diet will result in
cheapening. to a considerable extent
| the price of dairy products. Another
reason why alfalfa should be popular
is that as a pasture for hogs it is un-
equalled. As a father of hogs FL
is almost equal to corn and much less
cheaper. The most prosperous ranch
owners of the southwest today are
those who breed hogs and fatten them
on alfalfa.
Alfalfa is becoming very popular
as a poultry food. both green and as
hay. also as silage, giving variety and
succulence, which are always ac-
ceptable. The alfalfa in rich in nit
rogen. which Is necessary for the pro-
duction of the albumen in eggs and
essential to the growth Of fowls.
All classes of poultry relish the ten

are kept In small yards.

1T LOOKS LIKE MURDER.

Los Angeles, Dec 22.-It is now
confidently believed that Walter
Scott, the cowboy miner. who lately
attracted such widespread attention
through his lavish scattering of
money and various spectacular cpl
sodes, has been murdered in Death
Valley. On December LIST he left
his mine in Deaths Valley, riding a
mule and carrying with him $500
and two repeating rifles. According
to "A letter received by Rod King,
Scotts manager in this city, from
SCOTS brother William. at Benefits
Wells. the miners mule galloped
riderless into camp there on Deem
Der with the saddle pierced with
bullet and the blanket and saddle
covered with blood. Today King tele
rgaphed $1,000 reward to Barstow
and Bullfrog for the recovery of
SCOTS body. King is satisfied that
Scott has been murdered for his
money somewhere on the desert AL
ready thorough search for the miner
has been instituted in Death Valley
and throughout Funeral Mountains.
SCOTS brother, accompanied by
"Shand" Merrick, a well known des-
ert scout. went back on the trail for
so miles after it came in camp, but
terrific sand storm finally blotted
out all the tracks and their water
supply having become exhausted the
men were compelled to return to
camp. Later they started out again
and the search is being continued.
