New Kind of Alfalfa.

Washington, Nov. &c. After twice
risking his life and once nearly losing
1t in the interest of agricultural
science. Prof. n. E. Hansen. of the
South Dakota experiment station of
the department of agriculture has
found in northern Siberia an alfalfa
suited to the arid lands of the north
west, where the winters are bitter
cold
Prof Hansen got on the track of
the alfalfa year ago, but was so late
In searching for it that he was badly
frozen in Siberia. Despite his ex-
perience he made another trial this
year and has Just infomed Secretary
Wilson that he has been successful
and is on his way back with seed.
The alfalfa Prof. Hansen has dis
covered mas yellow flower instead of
a blue. 1t is native of the dry STEP
pes OF Siberia and grows well where
the mercury falls to SO or 40 below zero.
The county is exceedingly dry and
yet the new alfalfa is an excellent
forage plant Prof. Hansen has Sc
cured the seed and it will receive n
thorough test in the near future by
the department.

Money Reverts to County Treasury.

Judge Smart rendered a decision in
Lawrence last week which effects
nearly every county in the State The
action in which the decision was made
was one in theDouglas county district
court wherein Usage county was
plaintiff and former county clerk of
that county was defendant. The
former clerk now lives in Douglas
county and for that reason the case
was tried in the latter county.
The defendant as county clerk drew
hfty dollars month, or six hundred
dollars year from the county for
deputy hire during his term of office.
Then he hired a deputy and paid the
deputy twenty-five dollars Il month
one-half what the county allowed for
the work. Usage county when the
term expired brought suit to collects
the money appropriated for the puir-
pose, which was not paid out for the
purpose for which it was appropriate
eel, and therefore belonged to the
county. The decision will PERTAINS
have an effect all over the state. The
same conditions prevail practically
everywhere in some county offices
and especially in the smaller counties
where the work is light. The deci-
sion will probably result in the break

The Story of a Hen.

Some Kansas hens have lived to an
honored age But TO my personal
knowledge the record belongs to hen
which recently died near Evansville.
Tenn. at the ripe age of p years. 1t
is because I personally know the own
er OF this hen and the authenticity of
her record that write about her.
This unprecedentedly long lived hen
belonged to George Bradley. Biddy
was one of tine brood of chicks hatch
ed on the day that BradIy's eldest son
was born, nearly % years ago. BY the
date of the boys birth the family
nrmly established Biddy's age. But
the hen was not called by the common
name of Biddy. After a time they
named her Betsy.
From a particularly pretty chick
Betsy grew into a most industrious
hen. She dearly loved to lay and
