Success With Alfalfa.

Visitors in Linton who have under
stood that alfalfa cannot be raised in
this region should call at the First
Bank of Linton and see Il specimen
brought from the Kurtz farm near
Hazelton. The specimen, with a
sample OF bronze grass raised by Mr..
Kurtz, was brought here by Attorney
Armstrong, aud the two are IL de-
light to the eye Of the farmer and
stock-raiser. This is the third year
of Mr.. Kurtz's four-acre experimental
piece Of alfalfa. lie sent to the Agri-
cultural Department at Washington
and obtained some Of the bacteria
I that scientists say some soils must be
impregnated With before this great
hay or fodder crop can be raised.
1t should be remembered, too, that
this successful experiment has taken
place. not on low ground, with water
near the surface, but about a mill,
from HazeltOn, one of the highest
cultiyable areas in the county. 1t
cannot be said. with truth, that the
grass has not had good testing since it
Was planted. Year before last we had
extremely dry weather, which it vii tl-
stood; and certainly there Was enough
cDld weather last winter to kill any
plant kiIlable By an extremely low
temperature. II alfalfa can be raised
on four acres under proper conditions,
what is to hinder the raising Of it in
a larger area? AS the ages of states 10.
this section is 50 young that we have
not yet learned that whole lot Of
things Can be raised here that we
took for granted couldn't be raised
in this region aud therefore haven't
tried to raise.
The alfalfa was cut June Both. The
yield was very satisfactory. Mr.. Kurtz
will cut the second crop of the pres:
ent year for seed. .
Mr.. Kurtz is SO we'll pleased with
his alfalfa experiment that he put in
two acres this spring. There is a good
stand, and it is strong and vigorous.

JOHN HAY, Secretary of State, died
last Saturday at his summer home in
Newbury, N. H. History will class the
departed statesman as one Of the
greatest cabinet officers this country
has produced. His public services
began with his selection by President
Lincoln as the latter's private secre-
tary. In his yonger days lie was u
writer along the lines followed by Bret
Hart and Joaquin Miller, and Little
Breeches", "Jim Bludsoe" and other
poems of similar character gave him
a considerable literary reputation.
This, however, was in his later years
partly smotlered by his worldwide
reputation as clear-headcd and wise
diplomat. His death is a serious loss
to the national administration.

 Alleging that fraud was practiced upon him to obtain possession Of his property. David Haggerty, of 97 Elliott street, has filed in the town clerks of flee a caveat as a warning against the validity of a deed covering property consisting of a dwelling house and two building lots on Elliott street. The deed for the transfer of this propery was filed a few days ago by James McDon- old, of New York. The property was owned by Haggerty, but on June 25 he says that he transferred it to McDon- old, who is his brother-in-law, upon an agreement that Mcdonald was to provide for his support for the rest of his life. He now claims that before the transaction was completed disagree ment arose, and, so far as he was con- cerned, the deal was repudiated. Suit is to be brought against Mcdonald to recover possession of the property.

advantages of aggregated wealth is that
it enables its possessor in times of

Three-Fold Profit in Iron.
Mr.. Rockefeller has done this in many
instances. A notable case was that of
his iron ore properties. During the de-
preston of 1893 he bought. cheaply for
cash, the ore lands of Lake Superior and
the Minnesota ranges. He improved the
mining equipment, built great docks and
invested in huge ore carriers on the
great lakes. When the era of high
prices came along on the prosperity
wave of 1900 and the United States Steel
corporation was organized Mr.. Rookie
Teller sold out. The s25,OOOO0O which
Mr.. Rockefeller has in one form or an
other of steel holdings may be said to
represent almost entirely profits on his

shirt-waist suit seemed the one of silk;
this season, while silk will be much
worn, there will be more of a variety,
lightweight woods looming UP strong.
Whilst many of these anlle-length
frocks will be built on severe lines,
there will be considerable latitude as
to elaboration.
To turn to afternoon dress, apart
from the popular shirt-waist suit we
should like to speak of gray broad
cloth of very latest mode; it was made
with a skirt full about the hips, the
fullness turned into deep puff by
cording lower down. Cording and puffs
will be popular.
Elbow sleeves are to be worn more
than ever, and dressy coats have
sleeves of this length finished with
deep lace frills. Gowns for both after
noon and evening show elaborate ell
bow sleeves as the most fashionable.

is that with full skirt a blouse waist

about making them. Girdles continue

with the industrial commission. But
the most severe shaking up it has re-
ceived in its history was that given it
by Monnett, and though it was Bit
ter pill for the Standard to swallow,
it had the grim satisfaction at the next
election of defeating Monnettfor reelec-
ton as attorney general, and forcing
him into private life.
Monnett is as familiar with the
Standard Oil business as anyone out
side of the company itself, and Kan
has given Standard a black eye.
The Ohio. man is now at Topeka and
will aid in the fight. He will assist
the Kansas Oil Producers association
in preparing data to be submitted to
Commissioner Garfield.
Lawson, eager to get into the fight.
has sent word that to help the Investi-
gators he will go to Washington bare
foot in the snow, if necessary.
At New York, District Attorney
Jerome is preparing to bring proceed
ings against the directors of the
Standard in an effort to indict them
for conspiracy as defined in section
16S of the penal code.
Secretary Hitchcock, head of the in
terror department, and ex-Secretary
Hoke Smith are being drawn into the
fight, too, through the blanket lease of
100000 acres of oil lands in Indian
territory granted to the Standard for
ten years by Smith in 1896 Mr..
Hitchcock says this deal is public
scandal, and Mr. Smith replies that
the field had not been tested and that
there was little hope of finding oil.
But the upshot of it all may be that
the Standard may lose part or all of
its valuable Usage leases
Even Paul Morton may not escape
the investigation of Standard Oil
methods in Kansas. Charges have
been filed against the Atchison, To-
peka & Santa Fe Railroad company
alleging that this company, by raising
rates until th3y were prohibitive, as
