CORN AND ALFALFA.
Judge Thomas Of Walla Walla Gives
His Experiences.

Judge J. g. Thomas of Walla Walla
has farm four miles from that town
the soil of which is volcanic ash. He
has been very successful with dry
land alfalfa, having a large field from
which he cut two crops last year and
let the third crop go to seed, says the
Rural Spirit. After the seed was ripe
he turned his steers into it to test the
fattening quality of the alfalfa seed.
The results exceeded his most san
guine expectations.
He ploweda a year ago last fall, a
good sized tract of land eight inches
deep and narrowed it we'll in the
spring. The last of May he planted
it to corn AS the corn was coming
up he narrowed thoroughly and as
soon as it.was high enough to culti-
vate he put the tenders on and kept
the cultivator running until the corn
got SO high it would snap off. He got
60 bushels of corn to the acre. He
cut all his corn stalks, sent east and
gotta shredder and shredded all the
fodder, which he mixed with the
ground feed and fed TO the steers with
good success.

Entertainment at St. Mary's

way a decided success Notwithstand-
ing the large capacity of the hall,
every seat was occupied and all avail.
able standing room taken before COM
mencing the program, and many hold
ing tickets were unable to gain ad-
mission The fact that the capacity
of the hall was insufficient and that
the program had to be repeated on a
subsequent evening to afford an OPP
portunity for those who were unable
to gain admission on the first evening
was highly gratifying to the manage
ment and all those who took part
The program consisted Of two
parts the first devoted to music,
vocal and instrumental, we'll rendered
and well received, and enliyened by
the brownies at School, in charge
OF Leo Pittz, as instructor. The Sea
SHELF song by twelve beautiful little
girls was especially we'll received, and
heartily enjoyed by the audience.
The second part Of the program
consisted OF comedy in two acts, en-
titled "a Perplexing Situation"
The play has many interesting fea-
rures, and the perplexing situations
arranged for the various characters
are varied and unique, and afford an
excellent opportunity for the develop
ment Of dramatic art. Space will
not permit "a detailed review OF the
presentation. Those who participated
played their parts In IL manner that
would have reflected credit upon
players Of far greater experience, and
the presentation as whole was n
happy surprise to all who were pres
ent. The marked SUCCESS Of the first
effort will doubtless serve as stmu-
lus to the future. In the selection and
presentation of the play, the beautiful
stage settings, and general and par
ocular arrangement, the management
displayed excellent taste Miss Weld
enfeller and Miss Mari, who had inn
mediate charge, are we'll deserving of
the many congratulations extended TO
them.

The Turret Gold Belt publishes the
following regarding the Badger mine,
of which S. S. Stoner, formerly Of
this place, is superintendent:
"The Badger shaft is getting into the
vein and the results are all that could
be asked or expected. No assay tests
have been made but all OF the exposed
vein matter pans well, many of pan
nings indicating values $50. Up to
the first of the week, the shaft exposed
only milling ore until at that time ful-
ly four feet we're in sight. At the same
time a break in the footwall side OF
the shaft revealed streak of hematite
very similar to the one opened in lev
ell above, where it wdens from a mere
line to eight inches in the depth of a
croscut. The latest development is
quite a surprise and most agreeable
one. The shaft appears to be expos
ing another streak Of hematte. The
Badger certainly bids fair to reward
its owner, most literally in the near
