Educated In Poker.

Gen. J. Franklin Bell, who was at
the head Of the artillery and infantry
school at Fort Leavenworth, Kansas,
was invited to dinner given in the
cause Of education.
When time came for tho speeches
many Of the educators were called
upon and glorifed education. Then
Gen. Bells time came. He said he
did not know exactly wby the toast
master had pounced on him, for he
was not specialist in education OF
kind limited in its application.
"Howevers" he said, II have been
interested 10 what the speakers pre-
ceding me have said about education.
Still I think that out our way, in the
West, not 90 much store lie set by ie
as here in the East. I am reminded
Of che Gtory Of the two boys in Omaha
who, 1 regret to cay, we're playing
poker in doorway, using kern, 8 Of
corn 3or chips.
"During the game one puahed in q
bunch Of kernels aud said, 'I'll bet

"'I'll raise that Thousand.
"'1'll sec the thousand and raise il

"'I'll raise thst million billion.
"'I'll see the billion and raise you

Ge0d l'r0fie in Alfalfa.

After 20 years residence in Colcrs-
do and Wyoming, ahere alfalfa is con-
s:dered Sc indispensable as the horse
or cow to which it'is fed, the writer
Was very mnoh surprised On his return
to the East to find that, while tho
virtues and values Of this crop sre
very we'll known, very little ground
had been planted to this grass.
My experience with alfalfa goes to
prove it the most valuable hay crop to
the farmer and dairyman and hog
raiser that be can grow, comparing
the cost Of planting and harvesting
with any o:her crop, and which once
established be will never be without.
Some Of the reasons why farmers have
not planted slealgs we're given. Que
Was that it would not grow. in the
East, eG it was q Western grass.
Now, if the statement Of the Govern.
mess agricultural bureau that alfalfa
will grow ''anywhore from sea level to
1000 feet In altitude" is not sufi-
cient, the evidence OF fne fields OF
alfalfa from which four aud FIVE crops
year are cut, ct all Of the State ex-
pertinent stations, besides vssioue
folds belonging to the more enterpris.
ing farmer, scattered all over the Mid
die East and Eastern States, ought to
thoroughly convince the most back
ward farmer that it 10 tina for him TO
| avail himself Of the earliest oppo;-
tunity to get started good field Of
this valuable crop. Interference
| with rotation Of crops was also given
| 81 a reason why it had not been
planted, and to one who knows it's
value, both as q perennia al crop and
also as soiling crop, it sounds ab-
surd. The man who once gets to the
front with field of grass from which
he can harvest from three to FIVE tons
Of hay, having value per ton exceed
ing any other grass or forage crop
he can raise, will hesitate before
plowing it under, but when he is
ready to do 80 can follow it with
crop Of corn or any other crop, har-
vesting with larger returns than he
has known for years.
Others told me they had no good
land to spare for alfalfa, as they had
to sow wheat or oats, or perhaps cotn.
These crops in good year might give
them returns Of possible $12 to S25
an acre, while alfalfa, with less than
half the expense Of planting and
harvesting, will return them three to
six tons Of hay, worth, at the lowest
estimate on the farm $50 to s72.
Now just one word regarding the
State experiment stations. You each
help pay the cost Of all this expert
ment work, and in the whole list
there 10 no QUO of0p that bears hets= hets=
tar recommendation from all Of chem,
and in addition to these r. .,orts there
|is not farm journal published shss
dpes not contain dosens Of eestimon-
isla FROM fesmesa aud dairymen who
have personally teste1 this crop and
