bers of the IN. M" club to a
sleigh ride. After riding around
the city for an hour or two, the
girls sprung a surprise in the
shape of an elegant spread, at
the home of Miss Kate Carleton.
Two of the girls that we're dele
gated to cook the oysters were
not very attentive to their duty
and burned the milk, conse-
quenently the boys had to rush
the can for more. This time,
however, they managed to get
the oysters cooked without acct
dent. After supper the young
people adjourned to the hall
where the A. O. U. w. were hold
ing forth with their Annual
Ball. The boys wish to thank
the girls for the spread and as
sure them that anything in that
line is always welcome.

FINGER FELONS.
There Arc Three Varieties oe These
NcrN Painful Sores.

very HalntuI sores.
\ felon. or whitlow, IS an infamma-
ton oil the hand or finger usually of
the last joint of the finger. Its impor-
lance varies with the seat of it-that IS
to say, with the portion of the finger
involved. 1t may affect the skin only,
the tendons or sinews or the fibrOuS
covering of the bone-the periosteum.
A superficial whitlow, where the in
dammatiOn is confined to the skin, may
0e extremely painful, but otherwise it
Is not a very serious matter. But this
cannot be said of the other two forms.
In the tendinous whitlow pus forms
In the fibrous sheath surrounding the
tendon, and unless the Inflammation
quickly subsidies or the matter is let
out by the surgeons knife the pus
may burrow down through the sheath
into the palm of the hand and result in
Il permanent gripping of the member.
The third variety-called by ply
sicianS the Subperiosteal-is that in
which matter forms beneath the mem
brane which covers the bone. AS this
membrane is tough and inelastic the
tension due to the increasing volume
of matter becomes very great and gives
rise to a throbbing. maddening pain.
The relief afforded by Il deep cut into
this inflamed finger, right down to the
bone, is magical. although the cut
hurts. This is the only treatment for
this form of felon, and the mcision
should be made early. for if it is too
long delayed the bone vii! be killed
and a discharging sore will remain
which will later neccs state surgical
operation even if it does not result in
the loss of the last joint of the finger.
The superficial whitlow does not
usually call for such radical treatment.
A clay poultice often affords great re-
lief. This may be made by making Il
paste of clay previously sterilized by
baking in a very hot oven and adding
glycerin to prevent too rapid drying, or
the clay may be obtained ready prepar-
ed in the drug store. This protects the
finger from injury, keeps it cool and, If
applied early enough, may prevent the
formation of matter. When once pus
has formed, however. no matter what
the variety of the felon, the safest plan
of treatment IS TO cut into the infamed
finger and give exit to the confined
matter and relieve the tension of the
parts.-Youth's Companion.

Credit should he given the volunteer

companies exist mostly in the suburbs
in parts of New York to which the
service of the regular city department
has not yet been extended.
Although fire fighting is necessarily
a dangerous occupation and requires
qualities akin to those of soldier in
men who would enter it, the perils
have been much reduced by the perfec-
ton attained in many cities in methods
of discipline and by the improvements
in apparatus. On the other hand. the
study given to the subject has resulted
in such high efficiency of service that
the proportion of disastrous fires is
small compared with the number Of

ALFALFA SEED.
Best Seed and Largest Crops Pro-
duced Under Irrigation,

oeSt sceu ANA Largest crops Fro
duced Under Irrigation.
Professor y. NJ. TEN EYCK. Kansas.
The region lying west of the MisSou-
Il river grows most of the alfalfa seed
produced in the United States. \ large
part of this seed is grown 10y irrigation
in the western part of the great plains
region. in several of the mountain
states and in California. Much seed is
also produced without irrigation in the
eastern part of the great plains region
The dry climatic conditions of the west
make this section of the country bet
ter adapted for the production of alfal-
IA seed than the more humid regions
of the central and eastern states. The
best quality of seed and the largest
crops are produced in an arid climate
by irrigation. The supply of water
and the weather conditions during the
growing period of the crop largely de.
termine which crop TO save for seed.
Any one of Il seasons crops may
produce good seed, provided the soil
and weather conditions are right for
growing and maturing the seed. About
the same time is required to produce
a crop of seed as is required to produce
two crops of hay.
which Crop to Cut.
In the irrigated districts of Colorado
and western Kansas the first crop is
often saved for seed. the practice be-
ing not TO irrigate this crop. thus caus-
ing Il medium but thrifty growth of
plant, which, with the favorable wealth
er conditions prevailing in the arid
regions, usually seeds well. On the
whole, especially in the more humid re-
giOnS, the second or third crop is more
often saved for seed than the first
crop. mainly because more favorable
weather conditions prevail in the late
summer and early fall for maturing
the seed; also the insects which may
help to fertliZe the blossoms are more
numerous in the latter part of the sea-
SySl. Only in the southern states is it
possible to use Il later crop than the
third for seed
Second or Third Crop.
In those attitudes where the third
crop may mature seed before cool
weather and frost the choice between
the second and third crop for seed is
decided mainly by weather conditions
at and before the blossoming period.
In the nonirrigated area of the semi
arid portions of Kansas and other
western states drought is apt to pre-
vail in the latter part of the season.
by which the growth of the third crop
is greatly reduced. causing only
slight development of seed In such
districts the second crop should be
saved for seed or perhaps the first
crop, especially on dry uplands. which
may produce only one good crop dhe
first crop in Il season. In northwest
ern Kansas and Nebraska it is doubt
less safest to use the second crop for
seed, as the third crop is apt to be
caught immature by frost. In central
northern Kansas farmer must usual
~ decide early whether to save the
second or third crop. If the third crop
is to be saved for seed it is best to cut
the first and second crops little early,
giving as much time as possible for
the third crop to mature.
