MYRoN 7. HFRRlcK has gone to
Atlantic City for much needeed
rest. He is worn in spirit and
body. He is greatly depressed in
mind. Myron really expected to
to be a candidate for president in
1908. He figured that he could be
elected Governor again this year
and then he could follow in the
footsteps of his friend William Nc.
Kinley. He did not realize that
the age of William Mckinley had
passed never to return again. That
was a game which the American
people are fully ION to" and which
can never be played again so long
as this nation stands. With a
taste of Theodore Roosevelt the
tactics Of protection, trusts and
the dollar in the government seems
very small and tasteless. The peo.
pie will never return to that vomit
again. Cleveland Recorded.

ONE of the Developments of the
recent campaign is the antagonism
engendered between Senator For
aker and Secretary Taft. In his
speeches Foraker vigorously assail
ed President Roosevelt's scheme
for government regulation of rail-
road rates. Taft as vigorously de.
Tended the presidents proposition.
Inasmuch ns Foraker and Taft are
both Ohio men and both prospec
tive candidates for the presidency,
the situation is an interesting one.

DO Not Mix Costly with Common
place FurnishinEs.
Nothing so clearly evidences the re-
hnement of home as daintily served
meals. The room may be plain and
cheaply furnished. the table linen
coarse. the tableware inexpensive, yet
an air of refinement is quite possible,
and there need be no hesitation In Of
fering such hospitality to people in any
walk Of life, says the Philadelphia Bull
letin.
1t is better to have home harmont
Gus throughout than to mix costly and
commonplace furnishings. French CHI
ma and cut glass In any appreciable
quantity belong to deep purses that do
not feel the results Of accidents. They
require too much care to make them
desirable for homes where there is no.
body to help the mistress Of the estab-
llshment. To secure the greatest
amount of comfort at the least expendi-
ture of strength and time ought to be q
problem worth studying and TO further
Its solving there are all sorts Of aids,
like ready made sheets and pillowcases,
bed pufs, cheaper than one can buy
materials and make them at home; in
expensive washable materials for dra.
peries and couch pillows and host Of
other things.

UDGE and Jury in Prince

loggerheads over what is
known as the Kenilworth
pooIroop, caca Arthur Wall
The progressive farmer and the cotton plant., 1905-03-14

The many letters received since my
article on alfalfa was published in
The Progressive Farmer in Novem-
her Indicate the widespread interest
in new and promising crops that
naturally belong to a progressive peo-
pie.
Since writing the article referred
to. | have read letters from all sec
tious of the Union and have seen
nothing that dctracts from the high
oniuion that | had formed of this
wonderful plant.
However. there is one suggestion,
and that Is: it will be we'll for each
person who cOntemplates trying al
falfa. If none has been grown in that
particular vicinity, or if the expert
mcntcr i not to some extent familiar
with it, to experiment with it in a
small way rather than plant largely
until he finds out whether or not his
lands are adapted to it. Observation
and experiment. show that all lands
are not equally adapted to its best
growth. and it may be possible that
certain lands cannot be made to grow
it prohtably: hence the Importance
of trying it at first on a small scale.
You Must InocuIate Land or Seed.
Again. | think it will be money
thrown away to plant it without first
inoculating the soil. or the seed be-
fore sowing. with the necessary bac-
terra. There are two ways in which
this can be done. The first Is by
procuring soil from a field that has
grown successfully alfalfa for some
years, and spreading on the land to
bc Tlanted. This should be done on a
cloudy day so the action of the sun
will not kill the bacteria before it can
hc narrowed into the land. The sec
"nd and least expensive plan is to
procure the bacteria culture and in
"cUlatc the seed before sowing them.
The process is so simple that any
one who can read plain instructions
can make the required inoculation.
This bacteria has been obtainable
from the Agricultural Department
at Washington, free of cost, for ex-
p'rmcntal purposes. but letter just
received from that Department an
nounces that no more will be avail
able this spring. except to those who
have previously applied. Persons
wishing to experiment with the bac-
terra this fall can make application
TO the Department after July 1st,
