F.. J. Crayath, of Anlamoose. was
a Washburn visitor Tuesday. He
is engaged i'll looking up a band Of
horses which strayed away or were
stolen, and he is rather inclined to
the latter theory as he has not as
yet been able to obtain any trace
of the missing stock. MI. Cravath
is a member of Stockmen Associ-
alton. Of Mclean county and Or
'ganized under all act passed by
the last legislature. He believes
that much goodcan be accomplish
ed through the organization, but
it will be necessary to adopt some
strong measures towards those en-
gagedin rustling stock. The stock
rustlers are SO thoroughly orga-
nized that the stock raiser needs a
strong organization to successfully
combat them.W We believe. if the law
regarding the sale Of branded stock
was lived up to it would make it
hard to dispose of stolen property.

were guessed. at the third there
were maps Of various states drawn
in ink and the guests were to name
each one. At the last table, names of
rivers were mixed up, and they had
to be Strengthened out. Finally two
games of whist were played which
resulted in Mrs. S. G.. Forbes car
rying off the head prize. while Mrs.
Henry Rohrer received the conso-
lation prize Mrs. Root had a large
flag draped in the arch; the score
cards were flags done in water col
ors, and the napkins and lunch
cloths all bore the flags. Altogether
it was a very enjoyoble, patriotic
party. The club meets next week
with Mrs. j. 4. McC ulloch. Mrs.
Henry G.. Olson is now a member
admitted at the last meeting.

The alternative offered them for food was a supply of rather old cotton leaves, such as weevils never touch in the field.

The result of the experiments was that while a high grade of sweets seemed to have more attraction than a cheaper grade, neither can be depended upon to attract the weevils for poisoning. The bulletin states that there is at present no prom Ise of any considerable assistance in the control of the weevil by any para site now known. Because of It's pecu- liar history the weevil Is unusually exempt from the attacks of parasites. Even should one be found that could attack the weevil in some state 1t would probably still fall to be an eficient means of control. because from the very nature of it's parasitic habits 1t is hound to be behind the weevil both in noint of numbers and In the time of It's activity,-Texas stockman and Farmer.

The Arizona Experiment. Station, Tue son, Ariz.. has issued a bulletin which should be of interest to every farmer or in any other part of the state where any considerable amount of alfalfa is grown. It gives the results of repeat ed tests of alfalfa as a food for steers. Alfalfa alone was fully as valuable as alfalfa fed In connection with sorghum. Sorghum alone was decidedly inferior to alfalfa. When grain was added to the alfalfa ration some advantages re- suited but not sufficient to pay the cost of the added grain. This was on the basis of very cheap alfalfa, grown un- der irrigation.
