Prince Louis Ends His Visit to
United States
HE ENJOYED HIS TRIP GREATLY
Cheering Crowds Witnesses Depar-
ture of British Squadron From New
York and Its Commander is Made
to Write His Name in Many Al
buns and Pose For Many Pictures.

New York, Special.-About 200
sailors from the British squadron
commanded by Prince Louis of Bat
tenberg were missing from their ships
when the squadron made ready to sail
Monday. Several Of those who had
overstayed their leave were turned
away when they tried to board their
ships. AS it was within a few hours
of the fleets sailing time when they
made their belated appearance, the
officers treated them as deserters, re-
fusing to let them step aboard.
Many of the rejected sailors wept.
Their uniforms III some cases had
been taken from them in Bower,
resorts and they had spent all their
money before returning to their ships.
Many of them Immediately applied to
the immigration authorities for their
return to England.
Before sailing Prince Louis paid an
official farewell visit to Admiral
Evans OH board the battleship Maine.
As the Prince and his party left this
ship the American sailors cheered
him. A big crowd, including many
who had met the Prince in New York,
gathered at the Cunard Line dock,
where the flagship Drake was moored,
to witness the departure of the Prince.
The Prince wrote his name in hun
dred autograph albums and posed for
twenty or more pictures. Finally the
bugle sounded for the visitors to 60
ashore and the Drake was towed into
the stream while the throng on the
wharf and the British sailors on the
Drake gave each other farewell
cheer.

Massachusetts, Worst Train Disaster
in Many Years Occurs When Sun
day Night Express From Boston
on Boston & Maine Crashes Into
Rear of a Local.

Lincoln, Mass, Special..-The most
disastrous railroad wreck in this State
for many years occurred at S:15
o'clock Sunday night at Kaker's
Bridge station, mile and a hall west
of Lincoln, on the main line of the
Fitchburg division of the Boston &
Maine Railroad. The regular Sunday
express. which left Boston at 7.45
clock for Montreal Via the Rutland
system, crashed into the rear of a To-
cal train which started from Boston
at 7.l5 for points on the main line
and The Marlboro branch.
AT least 15 persons were killed out
right burned to death or suffocated,
and 80 or more were seriously injured
Many passengers sustained min~rcuts,
bruises and burns
The wreck was primarily due to
thick weather, which apparently OBJ
scured signals set by. the forward
train, which, at The time of the dis
aster, was standing in front Of Bak-
er's Bridge station. The Montrlea
train, drawn by two locomotives and
consisting also Of nine cars crashed
into the rear of The Marlboro branch
local, demolishing the two rear ears.
All Of the passengers killed and
seriously injured were in these. The
passengers lived in Concord, West Ac-
ton, Maynard, Hudson, Marlboro and
several smaller towns in the Asabet
Valley. None O.: the passengers on
the Montreal train were seriously hurt
but the engineer and fireman Of the
leading locomotive were killed.
The wreckage caught fire and some
Of the passengers were incarcerated.
Few persons live in the vicinity of
Bakers Bridge station and no fire de-
partment was available, so that the
flames practically burned themselves
out. Uninjured passengers and an UNI
Der of train hands, assisted by villag-
ers, went to the aid of the injured
and many persons were rescued.
A special train with doctors was
sent from Boston at 9.35 o'clock, and
reached here in half all hour. Many
doctors from Waltham and other
places in this section were sent to the
scene in carriage and by other train

Limo Burnt Tobacco as Fertilizer.

r. c., Danville, Va, writes: Please
advise me If lime should be applied
on the land before fallow in the peas
or if it can be put in as well with the
plow? + would also like to know the
manurlal value of burnt tobacco. 1t Is
not so badly burnt but is wet.
Answer: Lime should never be
plowed under, as it sinks rapidly into
the soil under the most favorable con-
ditions. Plow under your pea vines
and get the land ready for seeding and
then scatter the lime over the surface
by means of manure spreader. To
keep it from running out too rapidly
you can put some straw or other rough
material in the bottom Of the spreader.
Then harrow i lightly. 1t is best as
rule to apply lime in the fall, but OF
course it is also we'll to have crop
follow it as it may derive as much ben
eft from it as possible and fix the plant
food in the soil which the lime may
free and prevent its being leached out
by the violent winter rains. You might
put light seeding OF oats or barley
or wheat on the land this fall and seed
to grass in the spring and cut whatever
ceral you sow for hay in the early
dough stage so it will not draw all the
water out Of the soil and leave 1t dry
and at harvest time. Many stands OF
grass are destroyed because the rip

How and When to Seed Alfalfa.

r. A. w., Parnassus. writes: When
is the best time of the year to sow al
falfa? Will alfalfa grow in stif RED
clay?
Answer: Alfalfa should be sowh
now as soon as it is possible to get the
ground in condition. The land should
be broken to a depth Of about eight
inches, provided of course that you
have broken it at least six inches be"
fore. It would not be well to take
soil that has been worked shallow for
a number Of years and break 1t up
deeply all at once. Then, it would be
well to subsoil the land If it is heavy
red soil; il Of sandy nature subsoil-
ing it is not necessary. Apply sixteen
per cent. acid phosphate at the rate
of 200 to 300 pounds per acre together
with fifty to 100 pounds OF muriafe
Of potash. If the land iS deficient In
vegetable matter, make an application
of about seventy-ave pounds of nitrate
of soda to the alfalfa after 1t has come
up, and a similar application next
spring. You might also top-dress the
alfalfa with good coating Of well rot
ted farmyard manure. Alfalfa is del
icate plant when first seeded. Fan
seeding is an advantage because II
gives 1t chance to establish itself
before the weeds choke it out as they
often do from spring sowing. Alfalfa
should be frequently clipped If 1t turns
yellow and not allowed to go into the
winter with too much top or 1t might
smother out. Sow at least twenty
pounds of good, clean seed ard 1t Is
often advisable to inoculate. This may
be accomplished through the use OF ar
tificial culture or through the use OF
soil from an oil field. At least luU
pounds Of soil should be mixed with
the seed to be sown on each acre OF
land. Alfalfa may be put in the grain
drills or sown broadcast and cover with
a harrow. You cannot prepare the
land too carefully and heavy fertiliza-
ton is necessary on most OF your SOILS.
Alfalfa is a vigorous feeding plant and
must be we'll supplied with the various
forms Of plant food or it will not give
satisfactory results. 1t may seem
rather a serious undertaking to obtain
a stand Of it, but If you succeed with
1t YOU will find it one Of the most val
liable crops you have ever grown on
your farm and you will be well re-
paid for the labor, effort and money e1-
pended in securing it. 1t makes excel
lent hay and can be cut two to four
times a year under favorable condi-
tions.
Alfalfa as rule does not do well on
very still heavy red clay land as 1t is
so tenacious that the roots cannot cas-
ily establish themselves in the soil. and
its power to establish itself IN the
soil being based on the vigorous de-
yelopment of its roots, it frequently
withers away and dies in the course
of two or three years in such land.
However, if these lands were well SUBJ
soied and underdrained, it would no
doubt frequently grow with success in
the future where it has failed In the
past.

my judgment to wait now until next

No doubt you refer to the burned
leaves of the tobacco plant. A ton OF
tobacco contains about 200 pounds OF
ash, something like fifty pounds OF
nitrogen. and thirteen to fourteen
pounds Of phosphorlc acid, and eighty
one pounds Of potash. The burning
Of the leaves would result in the de-
struction of practically all the nitro
gen, but the phosphoric acid and pot
ash will be intact except where
injured by teaching with water thrown
on the ashes during the fire. This
probably would not amount to much,
however, if the tobacco was well mois-
tened, as it doubtless was. Tobacco
ashes would thus supply you with a
cheap source Of potash IL you can buy
them right, and small amount OF
phosphoric acid, but you would OBJ
tain practically no nitrogen from their
use. If you can get them reasonably,
it should pay you- to haul them and
scatter them on the land for the sake
Of the potash you would get. You
should not use more than twenty-five
TO fifty bushels Of lime per acre and
not oftener than from three to five
years. Fifty bushels Is not a heavy
application. and should give you good
results. Twenty-Five bushels, applied
in two applications, with two years
intervening, will probably prove more
effective than single application OF
fifty bushels.-Professor Soule.
